Description
Description
This tone-up serum-primer combines skincare benefits with makeup-enhancing performance. The formula delivers an instant brightening effect to even out a lackluster complexion and reduce the appearance of dullness. A resistant polymer forms a thin, protective coating on the skin, helping to smooth texture and create a clean canvas for foundation or cushion makeup. The blend of centella asiatica extract, aloe leaf extract, hydrolyzed collagen water, ceramide NP, and hyaluronic acid provides deep hydration, helping to combat dryness while maintaining a refreshed, luminous finish. SPF30 PA++ adds everyday sun protection, making it suitable for daily wear under makeup or on its own for a subtle glow.

Unfortunately due to regulations by Health Canada we are unable to offer any Korean sunscreen or SPF products to Canadian customers.
We are working with Health Canada to obtain Federal approval for these items, but it's a lengthy process.

Why does my product look different from the photos on your site?
Why does my product look different from the photos on your site?
Korean beauty brands update their formulas and packaging regularly - sometimes several times a year - and these changes often happen faster than we can update every listing. We do our best to keep product pages current, but what you receive may have a newer formulation or updated packaging. The core product and its function remain the same. If you'd like to verify what's currently in stock before ordering, reach out to us at info@kbeauti.ca and we'll confirm for you.
