We get messages about this palette from “You’re a genius!” from industry pros to “That’s not what my color corrector looks like!”
So let’s break it down…
What is color correcting?
Color correcting is a technique used to neutralize unwanted tones in the skin before foundation. It helps address:
Redness
Dullness
Discoloration
Dark spots
Light patches
Purple/blue under-eyes
Sallow or yellow areas
Each shade has a purpose:
Pink brightens dullness
Orange/Peach brightens medium–deep skin tones
Yellow brightens light–medium tones
Green calms redness
Violet neutralizes yellow
Ivory softens and balances mild discoloration
Why powder and not cream?
Because traditional cream correctors are heavy, cakey, and suffocating to the skin especially when used daily or on long-set production work.
A typical routine goes:
Cream corrector ? Concealer ? Foundation ? Powder ? Plus blush/bronzer/contour
That’s multiple thick layers that don’t allow the skin to breathe, and over time, it can cause irritation, congestion, and texture.
Our shades are technically “powders,” but they’re formulated completely differently:
They feel weightless, not chalky
They apply like smooth stained glass
They’re buildable for custom intensity
They correct without suffocating the skin
They don’t cake, crease, or clump under foundation
You get the correction without the heaviness.
How do you apply it?
We recommend applying the shades with a fluffy brush on clean, prepped skin before foundation.
Our formula grips the skin and doesn’t wipe away when foundation is applied on top. This solves two major pro-artist problems:
Standard powder correctors disappear under foundation.
Cream correctors stay but feel heavy and suffocating.
Ours stay put like creams but feel featherlight like powders.
There are no rules for this palette, but this is how we personally use it:
Apply your correcting shade(s) where needed
Lightly blend
Apply foundation as usual
Watch the undertones stay corrected without weight
Your skin (and your clients’ skin) will thank you.
So… this formula was inspired by embalming techniques?
Well…
yeah.
Because morticians understand undertones better than anyone.
We just made it wearable for the living.
