Practical guides and precautions
Precautions for use
I make my own recipe from start to finish
For a natural effect
For a very natural effect, you can use the Golden Sand Foundation Base as the sole colourant in your tinted moisturisers and foundations, varying the dosage according to the desired colour intensity.
For a covering effect
For greater coverage, combine the Golden Sand Foundation Base with a white coverage primer.
Tip
To create makeup for olive-toned or dark skin: add 10% black oxide to the Golden Sand base (i.e., 1g of black oxide to 10g of Golden Sand foundation base) to darken the shade.
Preparing a lip gloss
Step 1
Transfer the plant-based lanolin substitute or Gloss Base to a bowl (adding 15 to 35% plant-based oils or emollients of your choice).
Step 2
Add the Foundation Base to this mixture, along with pearlescent pigments and fragrances (aromatic extracts or fragrances) if desired, mixing well between each addition.
Step 3
Pack the preparation in the gloss bottle of your choice.
Preparing a concealer stick
Step 1
In a bowl, melt the mixture of waxes, butters, and vegetable oils or the Base Stick in a double boiler, heating to 80-90°C (to obtain a pencil or stick with the right hardness).
Step 2
Remove from the double boiler, then add the Golden Sand Foundation Base and mattifying and setting powders (sericite, silica microspheres, arrowroot) up to 30% and mix well until the color is uniform.
Step 3
Pour the mixture into a pencil or stick case and place the product in the freezer for 30 to 40 minutes or in the refrigerator for 1 hour and 30 minutes.

Make your own loose or pressed powder
Loose powder
Grind the Foundation Base (0.1 to 30%) in a mortar or coffee grinder with the other powders or with the Makeup Powder Base.
Compact powder
Grind the Foundation Base (0.1 to 30%) in a mortar or coffee grinder with your mixture of powders and binders (plant-based oils and butters) or directly with the Makeup Powder Base. Press the powder into a cup using a cookie cutter.
For more details, see our know-how sheet: Compacted powders
Make your own BB cream, tinted moisturiser, or foundation (emulsions)
Add the Foundation Base (0.1 to 10%) to the oil phase of the emulsion and heat the mixture in a double boiler to 70-75°C. Form the emulsion following the recommended procedure for the chosen emulsifier.
Aroma-Zone Tip
For more coverage in your tinted creams and BB creams, add between 1 and 5% white paste to the oil phase of your preparation.

A favorite! I mix it with my setting powder! A small amount is enough, and my complexion is done!
I just took it and added it to my day cream, and the result is perfect.
I put this foundation base in my day cream for a healthy glow effect.
A little difficult to dose the product. But nothing to say about the product itself.
This is what I expected! I'm not disappointed!
