Technologies

Clinique Beyond Perfecting Foundation + Concealer benefits from a combination of specific technologies and formulations:

• Enhanced Pigment Level: The foundation is enriched with high-quality pigments that provide flawless coverage with very little product. These pigments adjust to the skin tone as they dry and blend, melting into the skin for a natural appearance. This pigment concentration is a formulation “technology” that allows for high coverage and economical use.

• Breathable Polymers: The formula allows the skin to breathe comfortably. This is achieved through polymers and agents that form a lightweight, flexible layer on the skin, preventing a mask-like feel or pore blockage.

• Tone-Adapting Technology: While not a patented technology with a trade name, the claim that “shades may appear deeper when first applied” and that “once blended, Beyond Perfecting melts into your skin tone” indicates a pigment system that slightly oxidizes or adjusts to air and skin pH, allowing for a more precise match.

• Exclusive Ergonomic Applicator: The applicator design is a technology in itself. Its unique shape—with a larger back for general application, an angled, slightly curved tip for targeted areas (like the nose and jawline), and a pointed tip for precise corrections (under-eyes, blemishes)—optimizes application for both foundation and concealer uses.

Proven Results

• Perfected Natural Finish: Delivers a “beyond perfect” finish that lasts all day.

• Extreme Longevity: Stays in place and effectively resists sweat and humidity for hours.

• Breathable Skin: Offers a lightweight sensation and allows the skin to “breathe comfortably” without feeling occluded.

• Instant Anti-Aging Effect: Fine lines and wrinkles are visibly minimized immediately after application.

• Non-Comedogenic and Hypoallergenic: Tested not to cause breakouts and formulated to minimize allergic reactions, ensuring safety for sensitive and acne-prone skin.

How to Use

Application is made easy with its exclusive dual-function applicator:

Foundation Application (Full Coverage)

• Use the larger, flat side of the applicator to deposit a small amount of product on the forehead, cheeks, and chin.

• Then, use the angled, slightly curved tip of the applicator (designed to pick up more product) to cover areas like the nose and jawline.

• Blend well over the entire face using your fingers, a brush, or a makeup sponge. Due to the rich pigmentation, you may want to choose a slightly lighter shade than usual, as the formula will adjust to your skin tone once it sets.

Concealer Application (Targeted Areas)

• Use the pointed tip of the applicator to apply product directly onto problem areas. This includes under the eyes to conceal dark circles, around the nose to reduce redness, or directly on blemishes or spots.

• Blend gently by tapping with your ring finger, a small brush, or a makeup sponge to integrate the concealer without dragging it.
