Fungdation Shade Quiz
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I apply Fungdation?
The application method can influence both the look and feel of your makeup. Using your fingers allows the warmth of your skin to soften the product, helping it blend easily for a smooth, natural finish with minimal product waste. A foundation brush offers more precision and can provide anything from sheer to full coverage, depending on your technique and brush type. For light to medium coverage, a fluffy brush works well; for fuller coverage, opt for a dense brush. Picking up Fungdation with your fingers or brush gives you more control over how much you use and allows you to build coverage gradually. Applying directly from the tube is faster but usually results in more product on the skin right away, leading to fuller coverage with less flexibility. Depending on your desired look, you can choose the method that works best for your routine and finish preferences.
Is Fungdation good for mature skin?
Yes, the Fungdation works beautifully on mature skin. We recommend picking up the product with your fingers or a brush rather than applying it directly from the tube. This gives you better control over coverage, too much product can settle into fine lines and create an overly full-coverage look. Proper prep is key! Make sure your skin is well-hydrated and prepped before application for the most seamless, natural finish.
Is Fungdation good for dry skin?
The Fungdation is excellent for dry skin thanks to its hydrating ingredients and nourishing oils that keep your skin feeling soft and smooth. If it starts looking a bit heavy or shows off texture you'd rather hide, try a gentle exfoliation or a hydrating mask before application, this really helps create a smoother base for your makeup to sit on.
Is Fungdation good for sensitive skin?
The Fungdation is perfect for sensitive skin! The formula has gentle, nourishing ingredients that won't irritate your skin. It’s also non-comedogenic, making it suitable for acne-prone skin.
Is Fungdation good for oily skin?
Fungdation and oily skin are a perfect match! Its lightweight, non-greasy formula keeps your skin feeling fresh without adding excess shine. If you prefer a matte finish, set it with a bit of powder to keep shine in check and extend its wear throughout the day.
How do you layer SPF with Fungdation?
Apply SPF as the last step in your skincare routine and let it fully absorb before applying your Fungdation. Think of it as the ultimate protective base for your makeup!
How do I prep my skin for Fungdation?
Prepping your skin is essential for flawless Fungdation application. For best results, maintain a balanced complexion by exfoliating and keeping skin hydrated. A simple routine of cleansing, applying a targeted serum, moisturizing, and using SPF creates the perfect canvas, as your makeup will only look as good as the skin underneath.
Do I need to set my Fungdation?
After applying your Fungdation, you have three setting options: leave as is for everyday wear (especially good for dry skin or casual days); use transparent finishing powder to control shine and extend wear (ideal for oily skin or long days); or apply a setting spray for a natural, locked-in finish. For maximum staying power, you can combine powder and setting spray, using powder for oil control and setting spray for a skin-like glow.
Our Commitment to Sustainability
The beauty industry creates 120 billion units of packaging waste every single year and Axiology was part of the problem. Yes our lipsticks were ethically sourced, cruelty-free, vegan, and the tubes were made from 50% post-consumer recycled plastic, but it was still waste that would eventually end up in a landfill or our oceans. So in 2022, we ditched all of the plastic for our makeup products and focused our efforts on fighting the beauty industry’s massive waste problem.
