Formulation view A foundation using sunflower and grape seed oils as the lipid base, combined with silica for oil control and a matte finish. Contains hyaluronic acid for hydration. Suitable for combination skin preferring natural looks. Formulation observation: Plant oil bases are prone to oxidation; despite Vitamin E, color stability is a concern. The complex emulsifier system must ensure even powder dispersion to prevent clumping and ensure uniform coverage.
