Laneige Skin Veil Base‑EX No. 60 (Mint Green) SPF 28 PA++ 30 ml, with what it is, what it does, ingredients, usage tips, pros & cons — helpful if you’re considering buying or using it. If you want, I can also provide a shorter marketing‑friendly version.
Product: Laneige Skin Veil Base‑EX
Shade: No. 60 Mint Green — a tone‑correcting base / primer with green tint.
Size: 30 ml.
SPF / UVA Protection: SPF 28 / PA++. Provides moderate protection from UVA & UVB rays.
This base is designed to correct skin tone, especially to neutralize redness or flushing, even out uneven skin coloration, improve makeup finish, help control shine, and offer UV protection. Some of its features:
Tone Correction: The green tint works to cancel out or reduce the appearance of redness, acne marks, rosacea, or flushed skin.
Lightweight Texture: Has a lightweight, refreshing finish; not heavy or overly creamy. Ideal as a makeup base / primer.
Moisture & Hydration: Includes hydrating agents (like Blue Hyaluronic Acid) to provide moisture and help prevent tightness or dryness under makeup.
Oil & Shine Control: Helps to control sebum / oil production for a more matte or balanced finish, making makeup stay looking fresh longer.
Long Wearing: Laneige claims this base helps maintain makeup, evenness of skin tone, and texture for up to 12 hours.
Here are some of the notable ingredients and what they contribute:
Ingredient | Purpose / Benefit |
---|---|
Mint Green Pigments (Chromium Oxide Greens / CI 77288 etc.) | Provide color correction; green works to reduce redness. |
SPF Filters (Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate, Ethylhexyl Salicylate, Titanium Dioxide etc.) | To provide UVB + some UVA protection for daily wear. |
Hydrators / Humectants (Blue Hyaluronic Acid, Glycerin, Butylene Glycol, etc.) | To keep the skin hydrated under makeup, prevent dryness, improve comfort |
Oil‑control Agents & Texture Enhancers (Dimethicone, Cyclopentasiloxane, Silica etc.) | To create smooth skin finish, control shine, give slip for makeup application. |
Botanical / Supporting Extracts (Ectoin, Pinus Leaf Extract, Super Berry Complex etc.) | For antioxidant protection, skin soothing, environmental stress defense. |
Fragrance / Parfum | For scent; some people may prefer fragrance‑free but fragrance is included. |
Has a velvety / lotion‑primer feel; glides well on skin.
Finish is natural, with a hint of radiance, not chalky. The green tint is intended to be subtle after blending.
Not too heavy; many users report it feels breathable.
Mint Green skin bases are generally good for:
Skin with redness — visible red patches, post‑acne marks, inflamed blemishes. The green tint helps neutralize red.
Skin that also suffers from flushed or sensitive look.
People who want to even skin tone before foundation or wear less foundation and rely on the base itself for correction
Normal to combination skin, perhaps slight oiliness since base helps with shine control. Dry skins might still need a good moisturizer underneath.
Less ideal for:
Very dark skin tones where green tint might show as a cast if not blended well.
Skin that is very oily and prone to makeup slipping; though this base has oil control components, heavy sweating or humidity may still cause issues.
Very sensitive skin that reacts to fragrance / strong pigments; one should patch test.
To make the most of this product:
Prep Skin Well: Cleanse, moisturize, and if needed apply sunscreen (if your sunscreen and base layering are compatible). Because though base has SPF, it may not replace a full‑strength sunscreen for long exposure.
Dispense & Apply Evenly: Use 1 pump or appropriate amount, dot on forehead, cheeks, nose, chin. Blend outward. Use fingers or sponge/brush. Blend well especially near jawline so green tint doesn’t show.
Layer Smartly: Use lighter makeup over it so green base does its job of correcting, then a light foundation or cushion to even everything. Avoid very heavy foundation unless you want full coverage.
Set If Needed: If you have oily skin or will be out in humid environment, set with powder in parts that get shiny (T‑zone etc).
Removal: At end of day, ensure thorough removal (double cleanse if wearing foundation etc) so pigment / base residues don’t clog pores.
You’ll likely see an immediate softening of redness and more even, calmer tone.
Makeup tends to lay more evenly when you use a color‑correcting base underneath.
Better control of shine / oil during the day.
Skin may appear more radiant / fresh because of tint + reflective / optical diffusing pigments.
Long wear of makeup with fewer touch‑ups.
May leave a slight greenish cast if too much is applied or not blended properly. Start lightly.
Fragrance / pigment can irritate some sensitive skin types.
The SPF 28 PA++ is helpful but not very high — if you're outdoors a lot, complete sun protection (sunscreen + shade etc) is still needed.
In humid weather, makeup may still slide off or degrade; may need setting.
Dry patches of skin may cause uneven application; ensuring skin is well moisturized helps.
Includes UV filters and mineral filters (Titanium Dioxide etc).
Has fragrance / parfum — good to patch test
Some pigments (mica, ultramarines, iron oxides, chromium oxide greens) — standard in color bases. Ensure they match your skin tone and that you're comfortable with them.
