What makes it different?
Regular foundation is one fixed color. It sits on top of your skin, and by lunch it has settled into every line on your face. Second Look goes on white. As you blend it with your fingertips, tiny pigment beads open up and turn into your exact shade. Because it becomes your color instead of covering it, it moves with your skin instead of sitting on it. No creasing, no mask, no orange line at the jaw. Just your face, even and rested.
Does it work on my skin?
Second Look is made for fair to medium skin tones. If a foundation labeled "light", "beige" or "natural" has ever been close but never quite right, this is the one that finally lands. It works on dry, combination and mature skin, and it doesn't cling to dry patches or gather in fine lines. If your tone is deep or dark, it is not the right match for you, and we would rather tell you now.
How do I use it?
Start with clean, moisturized skin. Dot a pea-sized amount on your forehead, cheeks, nose and chin. It comes out white, that's normal. Blend with your fingertips in small circles and watch it turn into your shade within seconds. Want more coverage? Add a second thin layer. Less is more: one bottle lasts about two months of daily wear.
Key ingredients
Second Look is a skin-first foundation: pigment for the color, hydration and soothing botanicals for skin that has gotten more sensitive with the years.
Color that becomes yours
Micro-encapsulated mineral pigments (Titanium Dioxide, Iron Oxides) stay white in the bottle and release into your shade as you blend.
Hydration that lasts the day
Sodium Hyaluronate, Glycerin, Trehalose and Sorbitol pull moisture into the skin so the finish stays fresh instead of drying down into lines.
Botanicals that calm
Bisabolol (from chamomile), Gentian root, Prickly Pear stem, Sophora root, Ophiopogon root and Vitamin E soothe redness and reactive, mature skin.
A soft-focus finish
Silky silicones and light-reflecting mineral mica blur texture and pores without a heavy, cakey feel. Built-in sun protection [SPF value].
Fragrance-free. Paraben-free. [Cruelty-free, confirm.] Made for fair to medium skin tones.

What women are saying about Melari
Linda R.
At 61 I had pretty much given up on foundation. Everything looked fine going on, then by lunch it had settled into every line and turned orange at the jaw. I honestly thought foundation just makes you look older at my age. My daughter sent me this one. It goes on white, which threw me, but by the time I finished blending it was just my skin, even and rested. Nothing sitting in my lines at 5 pm. My husband asked if I'd done something different with my hair. It was my face.
Carol D.
I'm on a fixed income so I can't keep buying $50 foundations that end up in a drawer. I've been through Double Wear, Fit Me, the IT one, a custom-mixed one, and they all either clung to my dry patches or oxidized. I bought this because of the guarantee, fully expecting to send it back. Three weeks in, I've worn it to church, to my grandson's game and a full day of errands, and it stayed put. First foundation in years where my skin looks like MY skin. I'm buying the two-pack next.
Denise M.
I've been doing makeup for 30 years and I'm very skeptical of anything that claims to 'adapt' to your skin. I tested it on the back of my hand first: white, then my exact shade in about ten seconds. What sold me is the wear. It glides over texture instead of sinking into it, and it doesn't crease under the eyes the way most full-coverage formulas do on mature skin. I now recommend it to every client over 50 with fair to medium skin. Use your fingers, less is more.
Pat W.
Wrong shade has been my whole life with foundation. Too pink, too yellow, too dark by the afternoon. I returned three bottles last year alone. This is the first one I didn't have to guess with. It matched, it didn't turn orange in the sun, and I got two compliments at a dinner from people who had no idea I was wearing anything. Four stars only because I'd love a little more coverage on my sun spots, so I do a second thin layer there. Otherwise, this is my foundation now.
The foundation that gives you your face back
Second Look takes the guesswork out of foundation. It goes on white and turns into your exact shade as you blend, on fair to medium skin tones, for a finish that looks like your skin on a very good day.
It evens your tone, softens fine lines and neutralizes redness in seconds, and it moves with your skin instead of settling into it, with built-in SPF for the day ahead. One bottle, no more guessing, no more orange line at the jaw. Apply, blend, and take a second look.

I wore it to my grandson's birthday. My daughter-in-law asked what I'd done differently. Nothing. It just finally looked like my own skin, all day.
