Can I use this cream as a makeup base, and what's the best way to layer it?

The product description notes the texture works well as a light base under makeup. In practice, this means the emulsion is fluid enough to spread thinly without pilling, yet contains enough emollients to keep foundation from clinging to dry patches. For best results: after cleansing and any toner or serum, dispense one pump (or a pea-sized amount) onto fingertips, dot across the face, and smooth outward in a thin, even layer. Wait 2–3 minutes — you'll feel the surface turn from slightly tacky to dry-satin — before applying primer, tinted moisturiser, or foundation. If you use a separate sunscreen (recommended for UV index 3+), apply the sunscreen after this cream has absorbed, wait another minute, then proceed with makeup. Avoid heavy silicone-based primers directly on top if you notice balling; a water-based primer or simply a light dusting of setting powder often works better with this type of cream. At the end of the day, remove makeup and sunscreen with a proper cleanser — a single water rinse won't fully clear the filters and pigments.
