The product takes the form of a [light-coverage foundation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/teint-radiance), which is beneficial for [smoothing the skin](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skinplumping-linesmoothing-foundation), boosting its moisture levels and providing protection from UV rays. The elegant makeup product is packaged in an innovative, refillable applicator that includes a net-diffusing system that dispenses a small amount of the foundation at a time. While the Skin Caviar Essence-in-Foundation does come at a high cost, the product is packaged with a second puff as well as a formula refill for future use.
