What's Included

  • WHAT IT IS

    Get compliments on your skin, not your makeup.

    We designed this in place of all-over coverage, so you can make small edits only where you need them.

    The Minimalist can also double as a contour. To sculpt and define, choose a shade three shades deeper than your base shade and blend with Brush No. 1 for a seamless finish.

    Formulated in partnership with esthetician Biba de Sousa, whose No List includes another 72 potentially acne-triggering ingredients that we eliminate.

  • WHAT IT DOES

    Lightweight, hydrating formula wears throughout the day without settling into fine lines

    Buildable light-to-medium coverage that stays breathable all day

    Sea daffodil extract helps diminish the appearance of pigmentation and dark spots

    Fatty acids condition skin and lock in moisture
