Safety & Application

Directions

Before use cleanse skin thoroughly and pat dry. Apply by covering the entire affected area with one application only if needed you can gradually increase to 2 or 3 times daily or as directed by a doctor. If bothersome dryness or peeling occurs, then reduce the frequency of application. Ideal to use post-procedure and to completely cover skin blemishes, birth marks, bruises, etc. Did you know Oxygenetix Foundation comes in an airless bottle? This is to avoid the product from oxidising. To get your bottle functioning correctly, cover the pump opening, pump a couple of times and you will feel the product engage. Just flip the bottle over, making sure that the lid is on, and give it a few firm taps in the palm of your hand and then give the pump another try. To keep your airless pump pumping All products within the Oxygenetix range use a unique airless pump system. This means that there is no dip tube. As the product is pumped out, the ‘trace’ follows it up the inside of the bottle. If the bottle gets warm or if it is bumped then the trace can move slightly back down making pumping out the product difficult. To fix this, simply invert the bottle and tap it a few times to bring the contents back into contact with the pump To keep your product fresh from the first pump to the last, we have incorporated the use of an airless pump and on occasion, this may take several pumps to get it started the first time you use it. Sometimes it may need a little extra help. Don’t worry though, it is an easy fix and you will be applying your foundation in no time. Just flip the bottle over, making sure that the lid is on, and give it a few firm taps in the palm of your hand and then give the pump another try.
