Set + Blur

Tap. Tap. Blur. A clear balm that takes down shine and softens texture.
★★★★★ Read reviews
$35.00Compact with puff · one-of-a-kind swirl

A clear balm that does what setting powder does without the powder. It melts in and presses down, softens shine and blurs the look of pores and texture with no color, no cast, and no cakey layer on top. Press it in with the puff, tap where you need it, and go. Each compact is poured in small batches, so no two swirls match.

Why a balm

Powder sits on top. This presses in.

If setting powder has ever left your skin looking dry, heavy, or cakey, this is the alternative.

Setting powder

Another layer

—Sits on top of foundation as a visible film
—Emphasizes dry patches and flaking
—Can look cakey or heavy by afternoon
—Lifts cream blush and concealer when brushed over
—Needs a shade match, can leave a cast
vs
Set + Blur Balm

Clear, melts in

✓Clear, so no shade to match and no cast
✓Softens shine without a flat, dusty matte
✓Blurs the look of pores, texture, fine lines
✓Presses over cream products without lifting them
✓Compact with puff, built for midday touch-ups
Ingredients
What it does

Less shine, softer texture, still breathable.

1
Takes down shine. Absorbs the slick off oily and combination skin and keeps it down through the day.
2
Blurs pores, texture, fine lines. Soft-focus spheres scatter light so skin reads smooth up close.
3
Helps makeup stay put. Pressed over foundation and concealer, it keeps them from sliding without adding a visible layer.
4
Kind to dry patches. No powder to catch on flakes. The balm presses flat instead of clinging.
5
Works on bare skin too. Clear means no makeup required. Tap it on a no-makeup day for a blurred, shine-free finish.
How to use it

Tap. Tap. Blur.

Press, never swipe. Three places, ten seconds.

T-zone

The shine stop

After foundation, press the puff into the balm and tap across the forehead, nose, and chin. Shine stays down for hours.

Around the nose and under eyes

The blur

Press gently where pores and fine lines show. The balm fills and diffuses without creasing or settling.

3 p.m.

The touch-up

Tap straight over whatever is there, cream blush included. Nothing lifts, nothing cakes. Close the compact and go.
