Yes, the product information specifically mentions this cream as a suitable base before makeup if you want the skin to look smoother and more supple. It is not a primer and it will not fill pores or control oil, but it can help when your foundation tends to look patchy on dry or tired skin.
Apply a small amount after cleansing and let it absorb for a few minutes before putting on foundation. If you use a primer, put the primer on after the cream. If you do not use a primer, the moisturizer itself is enough for a smoother surface. Because hyaluronic acid works by binding water, applying the cream to slightly damp skin helps it feel comfortable; applying it to completely dry skin can make the product less pleasant.
If foundation pilling occurs, use less cream, wait longer, or press the cream into the skin instead of rubbing. If your skin still looks flaky under makeup, pat water or a hydrating toner onto the face before the cream and allow the layers to dry before applying makeup. This cream is not an evening-only product; if you prefer wearing it overnight, apply it as the last step and rinse or cleanse normally the next morning.
