FAQS

Our product is super unique, so we understand if you have questions!

A little bit goes a long way! One click will be more than enough product for a few blemishes. 

Take a small amount of product and blend in a circular motion with clean fingers. Once you reach your skin tone - tap tap tap - and blend the edges to melt into your skin. ** you can check out our How to Apply section to watch it in action.

If you need the product to be darker, use more product as it will have more pigment-bursting beads.

You should see results within 2-4 uses. However MOST say they notice a difference after one single application... especially if used overnight as a night corrector.

A little bit of this magical stuff goes a long way! Keep that in mind when using it. If you are still having trouble spreading, it’s always a good idea to give your skin some hydration prior with a clean moisturizer. Check out our video tutorials too!

Our pigment bursting technology works with the heat of our clean fingers. The more you rub, the more pigment will occur. The less you rub, the less pigment you will receive.

If it's too dark:

1) too much product is being used. We basically use these tiny little seaweed encapsulated beads with pigment inside, which you probably can feel when your blending. So if too much comes out or gets used at once time, you'll end up with too much pigment. So a trick I like to do is dot( a little tiny amount), blend then add more if I need more coverage so it can control the color change. 

2) is use a moisturizer prior or mix it! That will also help the blend to become more effortless & seamless and won't flake( which are beads that weren't melted into the skin enough). 

If it does not 100% match your tone, no fret- we are currently working with our lab to develop more ranges of tones.

Keep in mind - you can still utilize this as a primer or a night corrector!

Anytime! You can totally take it with you whenever, wherever you go ready to give you a little fix when needed ;)

Alex’s fav is using it before makeup application & Mike’s fav is applying it before sleep.

Use prior foundation. This way it's directly targetting the blemish & protecting your skin from other makeup applied.

Even if you don't have a blemish, but you have an area that typically breaks out; we recommend applying prior to makeup to make sure you're not getting any blemishes.

Yes! We included ingredients that aid in the brightening of acne scars. Vitamin C and Bakuchiol to name a few. Check out our Ingredient Dictionary for a full breakdown!


Yes, it's completely normal. However, we have some tips if it's not melting into the skin.

1) Too much product is being used at one time. We recommend using a smaller amount. The more product used, the more beads will come out when dispensed. The beads are our pigments that are encapsulated into seaweed and should melt right into your skin. If too much is being used it won’t have a seamless blend. 


2) Utilize moisturizer prior to application. This will insure your skin is nice and hydrated so it can sit on the skin nicely. This will also allow the beads to melt even more.

3) Blend in a circular motion - not tapping. If you just tap it'll remain white and the beads could actually 'flake' off.

Shake the pen well before use. Sometimes the pen needs a little priming. Twist the pen a few times and wipe away the formula. This could be from settling in transit/colder climates. If it continues please contact us hello@augustmonroe.com.
