1. Start with your regular skincare routine (moisturizer, sunscreen). 2. Use the included Velvet Puff to pick up a small amount of the pact powder. 3. Gently press and roll the puff onto your skin, starting from the center of your face and working outward. 4. For areas needing more coverage, repeat with a light layer. For best results, apply in the morning after your skincare has fully absorbed. Timeline Expectations: Week 1: You'll notice an immediate 'blurring' effect—pores look less visible and skin has a soft, matte finish that lasts through your morning routine. Week 2-3: With consistent use, the long-wear formula shows its strength. Makeup stays put for 8+ hours without caking or settling into fine lines, even during a busy day. Week 4+: The lightweight, breathable coverage becomes a seamless part of your routine. Your skin maintains a fresh, 'my-skin-but-better' look all day, reducing the need for midday touch-ups and the stress of makeup meltdown.

Kose was founded in Tokyo in 1946, born from a simple belief: makeup should feel like nothing, but do everything. The Esprique Nude Cover Long Stay Pact was created for the modern woman who juggles work, life, and stress—factors that can make skin look tired and makeup fade. Kose's labs in Japan developed this formula with a patented 'Nude Cover' powder technology to address this, not by masking skin, but by working with it. Every batch is produced in a GMP-certified facility, the same standard used for pharmaceuticals, ensuring purity and consistency. This commitment has made it a top-ranked foundation in Japan for over 5 years, trusted by women who want their makeup to look fresh from morning meetings to evening plans, without constant touch-ups.

The Kose Esprique Nude Cover Long Stay Pact SPF 22 PA++ Foundation Special Set is formulated with a blend of ingredients designed to provide long-lasting coverage, sun protection, and skin benefits. Key ingredients include titanium dioxide and zinc oxide, which act as physical UV filters to offer broad-spectrum SPF 22 and PA++ protection against UVA and UVB rays, helping to prevent sun damage and premature aging. Silica and talc are included as absorbent powders to control excess oil and shine, ensuring a matte finish and extended wear throughout the day. Hyaluronic acid and glycerin serve as humectants to attract and retain moisture in the skin, promoting hydration and preventing the foundation from appearing dry or cakey. Cyclopentasiloxane and dimethicone provide a smooth, silky texture that allows for easy application and a seamless blend, while also forming a breathable barrier to lock in moisture and enhance longevity. Additional components like mica and iron oxides contribute to the product's lightweight coverage and natural-looking finish, offering buildable color correction and a radiant complexion. This combination of ingredients works synergistically to deliver a foundation that not only provides reliable coverage and sun protection but also supports skin hydration and comfort, making it suitable for daily use.
