  • How to use Sofina Primavista Long Keep Base UV SPF20 PA++ 25ml

    1. Prepare Your Canvas: Begin with your daily skincare routine. After cleansing, toning, and applying your favorite serums and a lightweight moisturizer, ensure the products are fully absorbed. Your skin should be hydrated but not greasy to the touch. This provides the perfect base for the primer to adhere to.
    2. Shake Vigorously: This step is crucial for the product's performance. Secure the cap and shake the bottle vigorously until you hear a distinct clicking sound. After you hear the click, continue to shake it at least 5-6 more times. This action properly mixes the oil-controlling and UV-blocking ingredients for an even and effective application.
    3. Dispense the Proper Amount: Carefully uncap the bottle and dispense a small, precise amount. An 8mm-diameter circle is the recommended size for the entire face. This thin, fluid primer is highly effective, so a little goes a long way.
    4. Dot and Spread: Apply small dots of the primer to your key areas: forehead, nose, cheeks, and chin. Using your fingertips, gently and quickly spread the primer outwards in a thin, even layer across your entire face. The formula is designed to set quickly.
    5. Target Oily Areas: For those with combination or particularly oily T-zones, you can apply a second, very thin layer specifically to the nose and forehead. Gently pat this additional layer into the skin until it feels smooth.
    6. Allow to Set: Wait for about a minute to allow the primer to fully set and create its seamless, shine-controlling film on the skin. You will feel a smooth, silky finish, indicating that your skin is ready for makeup.
    7. Apply Foundation: Proceed with your favorite foundation, whether it's a liquid, cream, or powder formula. You will notice that your foundation glides on more smoothly and requires less product to achieve a flawless finish. The primer is designed to grip your makeup, ensuring it stays fresh all day.

  • Integrating Sofina Primavista Long Keep Base UV SPF20 PA++ 25ml into Your Skincare Flow

    • The Final Skincare Step: Think of this base as the bridge between your skincare and makeup. It should always be the very last step of your morning skincare routine and the very first step of your makeup application.
    • Hydration is Key: For best results, use a hydrating, non-oily moisturizer before applying the Primavista Long Keep Base. Its sebum-control technology works most effectively on skin that is well-hydrated, as overly dry skin can sometimes overcompensate by producing more oil.
    • Perfect Pair for All Foundations: This J-beauty cult favorite is compatible with all forms of foundation. It creates a smooth, resilient canvas that enhances the longevity of liquid, cushion, and powder foundations, preventing them from creasing or separating.
    • Sufficient Sun Protection?: While it contains SPF20 PA++, we at Asian Trend Beauty recommend using a dedicated, high-protection sunscreen as your primary defense against UV rays, especially on days with prolonged sun exposure. Apply your main sunscreen before the Primavista Long Keep Base for comprehensive protection.

    Most common questions about Sofina Primavista Long Keep Base UV SPF20 PA++ 25ml

    Will this primer dry out my skin?
    While the Sofina Primavista Long Keep Base is renowned for its sebum-control, it is formulated with hydrating ingredients like Chamomile Extract and a form of Hyaluronic Acid to prevent excessive dryness. It is designed to control shine without stripping the skin of its necessary moisture, making it comfortable for long-term wear, especially for normal to oily skin types.

    Is SPF20 PA++ enough sun protection for daily use?
    The built-in SPF20 PA++ offers a good baseline of daily protection against incidental sun exposure. However, for dedicated time outdoors or for those who prioritize anti-aging, we strongly advise layering a separate, broad-spectrum sunscreen with a higher SPF (30 or above) underneath the primer to ensure your skin is fully protected from UVA and UVB damage.

    What is the difference between the Japanese version and the "Ange" version?
    This is a fantastic question for a J-beauty enthusiast! The Sofina Primavista Long Keep Base (the product described here) is the original Japanese domestic version, celebrated for its advanced oil-blocking technology. The "Primavista Ange" version is typically formulated for the Taiwanese market, which has a very hot and humid climate. While both are excellent for oil control, some users find the original Japanese version to be slightly more mattifying and long-wearing, while the Ange version can feel a touch more hydrating. Both are top-tier primers tailored for similar concerns.

    Can I wear this primer without any makeup on top?
    Yes, you absolutely can. On days when you want a natural, shine-free look without wearing foundation, this base is perfect. It will help to control oil production, slightly blur the appearance of pores, and provide modest sun protection, giving your skin a smooth, fresh, and polished look all on its own.

    How does this primer control oil so effectively?
    The secret lies in Sofina's groundbreaking "Oil-Locking Formula." This advanced technology uses powders that both absorb excess sebum and solidify it, preventing it from spreading across the skin's surface. This unique mechanism stops shine before it starts and prevents your foundation from breaking down, even in hot and humid conditions, ensuring your makeup looks freshly applied for hours.
