Frequently Asked Questions:

My skin looks dry and cakey when I apply the foundation, even when I use a moisturizer. What's wrong?

No matter how good your foundation is, it will only look as good as your skin does. The buildup of dead, dry skin cells causes your makeup to look cakey. Exfoliation is the answer! Use True Cover® Exfoliating Scrub at least 2 to 3 times a week followed by a good moisturizer. If you don't have a daily skin conditioning routine in place, start today!

Why does my kit contain two very different shades? I only need one.

With True Cover®, we want you to be in control! Each kit contains specially selected shades as the most likely match for people on each end of your skin tone range. However, if one doesn't match your skin tone or if your tone changes with the seasons due to increased or decreased outdoor activity, these contrasting colors give you more options for blending so that you can always create a customized color to match your tone perfectly.

I just can't get enough coverage to conceal my discoloration. What do I do?

First apply a light and even base coverage. Using your fingers blend downwards to minimize facial or body hairs. Remember this is just the base, so don't worry about the discoloration at this point. Next go back and lightly pat and dab a thin layer of color on the area that you need to conceal. Be sure to gently blend into the surrounding areas for a natural looking finish. Keep applying your True Cover® color in thin layers using the same pat and dab motion until you achieve the coverage you desire, blending as you go. Use your brush for more precise or smaller areas such as around the nose.

Tips for Longer Wear

True Cover® formulas have passed both water and smudge resistance testing so you can feel confident that any imperfections will stay concealed longer with only moderate touch-ups needed throughout the day. Please note that constant rubbing over the product from your clothingor toweling dry after swimming will result in some product residue coming off onto your clothes or towel. After swimming or perspiring, always gently pat (never rub) to minimizethe amount of product residue.
If you still need a little more coverage, just lightly touch-up to keep your True Cover® look uniform and beautiful. Also note that using heavy and oily moisturizers (especially items such aspetroleum jelly, body oils, etc.) underneath your color foundation will break down the productand can make it smudge or rub off during wear.
