How to Use

1. Shake well before application to ensure even distribution.
2. Apply liberally and evenly to the face and body in one direction (don’t over-rub).
3. Spend a few extra seconds blending thoroughly — it may take 1–2 minutes to settle and “disappear” on skin.
4. Reapply at least every 2 hours, or after sweating, swimming, or towel-drying.
