Smooth base: Discover the secret of perfect skin

Base lissante : découvrez le secret d’une peau parfaite

We may know it by name, but we rarely know what it is or how to use it. So, is the smoothing base a skincare product or a make-up product? 

What is a smoothing base?


A member of the skin-perfecting family, the smoothing base is not a skincare product per se, but a complementary product that visibly improves skin quality. Always applied after the usual skincare routine, it is ideal as a make-up base* for those who wish to apply make-up afterwards. Its ease of application and results on the skin make it THE product of choice for make-up artists* and women looking for instant perfection!

What is it used for and what does it do?


Also sometimes called "blur**" thanks to its blurring power, the smoothing base's action is to correct minor imperfections: fill dilated pores and/or blackheads, even out and smooth the complexion. Thanks to its ultra-light, blurring texture, it instantly perfects skin quality, for naturally flawless skin. Sometimes enriched with colored pigments (green, yellow or violet), it can also be used to correct complexion and minor imperfections.


It can be used on its own after a skincare routine, but also makes an excellent make-up base: in particular, it facilitates the application of foundation and prolongs make-up wear* by preventing the skin from absorbing make-up. It also protects the skin by preventing make-up particles and impurities from accumulating in the pores.


In short, the smoothing base is the key to instant perfect skin, without necessarily wearing make-up.

How do I apply a smoothing base?


The smoothing base is not a day cream, nor does it replace one: it is applied locally to the areas to be corrected, such as expression lines, small imperfections like dilated pores or other irregularities, the T-zone, or the chin... Always to be applied after your usual skincare routine, it can however be applied in different ways depending on the desired effect:


For those who prefer no make-up* for a more natural look, apply your smoothing base as the last step in your skincare routine, after your day care. The perfect natural skin effect guaranteed!
- For those who prefer a flawless complexion, you can apply your smoothing base as a make-up base: before applying your foundation and/or powder.
- The beauty gesture to take everywhere with you: apply in small, localized touches to correct small flaws at any time of day.


Correctly applied, the smoothing base will form a second skin without a mask effect, smoothing out facial features and giving them a unified look for a perfect skin effect!
