Take a peek!
KATE Brightening Makeup Base for Cover is a fairly common product that any number of Japanese brands put out. It’s a creamy shade of yellow-ish beige which promises to reduce the appearance of pores while evening and brightening skin tone. It also contains a little sunscreen in the form of SPF23 PA++.
This comes in a squeeze tube for easy dispensing. I actually have a slew of similiar products but this is one of the better bases I’ve tried. It’s a creamy texture that blends easily onto skin leaving behind a semi-matte finish for makeup to adhere to. I find it soaks up excess oil quite nicely and leaves skin with a semi-matte finish that allows my makeup to wear longer without fading. The thing I like about it is the fact that it eases dullness and creates a brighter appearance giving my lackluster some of its health back.
The natural finish allows skin to look even great without the extra addition of foundation or BB Cream application so if you want you can use it as a lightweight base of sorts with a little cheek stain for a no makeup look. I wouldn’t say it’ll completely conceal pores but it will blur the appearance of them so they look smaller after makeup application.
If you’re looking for a base that will absorb a little bit of oil if you have say combination skin and one that brightens skin while keeping makeup wearing longer I’d check this out. I really liked it a lot as it seems to provide my makeup with the boast it needs to look perfect!
