Achieve an ethereal, hydrated glow with the ETUDE Nymph Aura Volumer. This unique makeup base is designed to be mixed with your foundation or BB cream, transforming any matte or satin finish into a dewy, luminous "glass skin" look. It's the perfect solution for combating the dull, flat appearance makeup can have in dry, air-conditioned environments common in Mauritius, giving your skin a plump, healthy, and radiant finish that looks lit from within.

If your foundation often looks dry, cakey, or lacks radiance, this product offers a simple solution. It adds a visible, dewy glow for a healthier, more youthful appearance.

• Best For: Normal, Dry, and Combination skin types seeking a luminous finish.
• What it is: A multi-use glow-boosting cream designed to be mixed with foundation or used as a liquid highlighter.
• What to expect: Instantly dewy, plump-looking skin. A noticeable "glass skin" effect that enhances radiance.
• Keep in Mind: Very oily skin types may find it too dewy for all-over use and should apply it strategically to high points.

1. Cleanse & Prep: Start with your usual cleanser and hydrating toner.
2. Sunscreen: Apply your daily sunscreen and allow it to set for 1-2 minutes.
3. Mix & Apply: On the back of your hand, mix 1 part Nymph Aura Volumer with 3 parts of your favourite foundation or BB cream. Apply the mixture to your face.
4. Finish: Complete the rest of your makeup routine.

Mindful Tip: Already own a liquid highlighter or illuminating primer? Finish that first to see if it achieves the glow you want. This product is for an intense, specific dewy finish.

This is a makeup product designed for your morning routine. Layer it correctly with sunscreen to ensure full UV protection.

• Step 1: Cleanser: Wash your face with a gentle cleanser.
• Step 2: Toner/Serum (Optional): Apply any hydrating toners or serums. Allow 30-60 seconds to absorb.
• Step 3: Moisturiser (Optional): Apply a light moisturiser if your skin is dry. Wait 1 minute.
• Step 4: Sunscreen: Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen of at least SPF 30+. THIS IS A CRUCIAL STEP. Wait 1-2 minutes for it to set.
• Step 5: [THIS PRODUCT] + Foundation: Mix the Nymph Aura Volumer with your foundation or BB cream and apply to your face. Alternatively, apply your foundation first, then tap the Volumer onto the high points of your face (cheekbones, brow bone).

There are two primary ways to use the Nymph Aura Volumer for a customisable glow.

Method 1: Mix with Foundation (For an All-Over Glow)

• Amount: On the back of your hand or a palette, dispense your foundation. Add the Volumer at a ratio of approximately 1 part Volumer to 3 parts foundation. Mix well.
• Application: Apply the mixture evenly to your face using a sponge, brush, or your fingertips.
• Best for: Achieving a consistent, dewy finish across the entire face. Excellent for reviving matte foundations.

Method 2: As a Liquid Highlighter (For Strategic Strobing)

• Amount: Use a half-pump or less.
• Application: After applying your foundation, gently tap the Volumer onto the high points of your face where light would naturally hit: top of the cheekbones, bridge of the nose, cupid's bow, and under the brow bone.
• Best for: Creating a focused, glossy highlight without adding shine to the entire face. Recommended for combination or oily skin types.

Makeup Tips (No Pilling):

• To prevent pilling, ensure your sunscreen and moisturiser are fully absorbed before applying makeup. Wait at least 1-2 minutes.
• Use a patting or stippling motion rather than a rubbing motion to apply your base makeup.
• If you have very oily skin, consider using a mattifying primer on your T-zone before applying the Volumer-foundation mix.

• Immediately: Your skin will have a visible, dewy, and luminous glow. The finish is glossy and hydrated-looking. Fine lines and dry patches may appear softened due to the light-reflecting and emollient formula.
• Throughout the Day: The glow will remain, though you may need to blot or powder oily areas depending on your skin type and the climate.
• Long-Term (4-8+ weeks): This is a cosmetic product for an instant effect. Long-term skin benefits are not its primary function, although the hydrating ingredients may support skin moisture with consistent use.

• Why this, not that glittery highlighter? Many highlighters use visible glitter or shimmer particles to create shine, which can look unnatural in daylight and emphasize skin texture. The Nymph Aura Volumer creates a dewy, wet-look glow from moisturising oils and humectants, mimicking genuinely hydrated skin rather than applied sparkle.

• Works Well With: Most liquid and cream foundations (especially matte and satin formulas), BB creams, and CC creams. Layers well over hydrating or gel-based sunscreens.
• Use Carefully With: Very silicone-heavy primers, as this can sometimes cause pilling. If using a silicone primer, allow it to set completely. Oily skin types should pair it with a mattifying primer on the T-zone.
• Application Order: Always apply after your sunscreen has fully set. Sunscreen must be the last step of your skincare routine, and primer/makeup bases come after.

• Dry Skin: Excellent. Helps to counteract the flat, flaky appearance of dry skin under makeup, providing a much-needed luminous and hydrated look.
• Normal Skin: Excellent. Perfect for achieving a trendy, dewy "glass skin" finish.
• Combination Skin: Good, with strategic use. Best applied as a highlighter on drier areas like the cheekbones, or mixed sparingly into foundation while using a mattifying primer on the T-zone.
• Oily Skin: Use with caution. An all-over application may feel too greasy. It is best used as a targeted highlighter on the high points of the face.
• Sensitive Skin: Contains fragrance. A patch test is strongly advised for sensitive or reactive skin.

(Note: Ingredient lists may be subject to change by the manufacturer. Please refer to the product packaging for the most current list.)

• Fragrance Status: Contains added fragrance ("Parfum" / "Fragrance").
• Scent Profile: A light, fresh, floral-perfume scent. Intensity is generally mild (2/5).
• EU Allergens: None explicitly declared by the brand in the standard INCI, but may be present as unlisted components within the "Fragrance" blend. A patch test is always recommended for sensitive skin.

Who should use this: Ideal for individuals with normal to dry skin who want to add a dewy, luminous finish to their makeup.

Who should use with caution: Those with very oily or acne-prone skin should use this product sparingly as a targeted highlighter. Individuals with known sensitivity to fragrance should perform a patch test.

Patch Test Protocol:

1. Apply a pea-sized amount of the product to a clean patch of skin on your inner arm, jawline, or behind the ear.
2. Wait 24 hours. Check the area for any signs of redness, itching, burning, or rash.
3. If no reaction occurs, re-check the area at 48 and 72 hours to ensure there is no delayed sensitivity.
4. If irritation occurs at any point, discontinue use and cleanse the area gently.

General Safety: For external use only. Avoid direct contact with eyes. Keep out of reach of children. Discontinue use and consult a doctor if a rash or irritation develops and persists.

• Texture: A thick, viscous, honey-like gel. It feels rich and emollient.
• Finish: Creates an intensely dewy, glossy, and luminous finish on the skin. Not shimmery or glittery.
• Scent: Lightly fragranced with a fresh, floral scent.
• Fungal Acne (Malassezia) Compatibility: Contains several ingredients that may pose a risk for those with Malassezia folliculitis, such as Castor Seed Oil and Ethylhexyl Olivate. Individual responses can vary; patch testing is advised.

• Issue: My makeup looks too greasy or oily.
  Solution: You may be using too much. Reduce the ratio to 1 part Volumer to 4 or 5 parts foundation. Alternatively, use it only as a targeted highlighter on the high points of your face instead of mixing it all over.
• Issue: My foundation is pilling or separating.
  Solution: This is often caused by layering incompatible textures or not allowing layers to dry. Ensure your sunscreen is fully set before applying makeup. Apply your base with a patting or tapping motion, not rubbing.
• Issue: The glow isn't lasting all day.
  Solution: Set your makeup with a hydrating or luminous setting spray. You can also lightly tap a tiny amount of the Volumer over your makeup on cheekbones as a midday touch-up.

• For Humid Summer Days: An all-over application may feel heavy in high humidity. During the humid season, it is best used as a strategic highlighter on the cheekbones and brow bone to add a controlled glow. Oily skin types may prefer to use it only in the evenings or in air-conditioned settings.
• For Drier Winter or in Air-Conditioning: This product excels in drier conditions. Mixing it with your foundation will counteract the dulling, dehydrating effect of air-conditioning, keeping your skin looking plump and radiant all day.

• Ingredient Rationale: The product's ability to create a dewy, "glass skin" finish is based on the formulation's high concentration of emollients (like Hydrogenated Polydecene) and nourishing plant oils (Avocado, Argan). These ingredients form a smooth, light-reflecting layer on the skin, giving it a glossy appearance while also moisturising. Humectants like Sodium Hyaluronate help to attract water, adding to the plump, hydrated look.

• Size: 24g
• Typical Use: Approx. 0.2g per application (e.g., half a pump).
• Uses per Tube: Approximately 120 uses.
• Reorder Cadence (if used daily): This tube should last about 4 months.
• Reorder Cadence (if used 3x/week): This tube should last about 10 months.

A little goes a long way, making this a cost-effective way to achieve a dewy finish and extend the life of your existing foundations.

Starter Glow Set (AM Routine)

• ROUND LAB 1025 DOKDO CLEANSER 150ML — A gentle, hydrating cleanser that won't strip your skin, creating a perfect canvas.

• ETUDE NYMPH AURA VOLUMER 24G — Your key to a dewy, luminous base.
• ETUDE DOUBLE LASTING FOUNDATION SPF35 PA++ 30G — Mix with the Volumer to transform its semi-matte finish into a radiant glow.

Maximum Radiance & Longevity Set

• TIRTIR MASK FIT RED CUSHION 18G — A long-wearing cushion that pairs well with the Volumer for a flawless, glowing finish.

This Volumer is an excellent choice if your primary goal is to achieve an intense, glossy, "wet-look" glow and you have normal to dry skin. However, if your needs are different, consider these alternatives from our catalog:

• For a More Subtle Glow with SPF: heimish ARTLESS GLOW BASE SPF50+ 40ML — Choose this if you want a subtle, pearlescent glow and high sun protection in a single step. It's perfect for a streamlined morning routine and provides a less intense, more natural radiance.
• For a Hydrating, Watery Glow: ETUDE GLOW ON HYDRA BASE 30ML — Choose this if you prefer a 'plumped with hydration' glow rather than a glossy one. This primer feels more like a hydrating serum and creates a smooth, moisturised canvas for makeup.
• For Color Correction with a Soft Finish: THE FACE SHOP AIR COTTON MAKEUP BASE SPF30 PA++ — Choose this if your main concern is correcting skin tone (e.g., redness with the mint base, or sallowness with the lavender base) and you prefer a soft, semi-matte finish. It controls oil better than a glow booster.

Mindful Consumption Note: If you already have a liquid illuminator or dewy primer at home, we encourage you to finish it first. This helps reduce waste and allows you to fairly assess if you still need a different type of glow-boosting product.

• Format: 24g plastic tube with a hygienic pump dispenser. The pump helps to control the amount of product and prevents contamination.
• Recycling (Mauritius): The plastic tube and cap may be recyclable. Please check with your local recycling guidelines. Clean the container thoroughly before recycling.
• Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to maintain the stability of the formula.
• Travel: The small size and secure pump make it travel-friendly.

Note: These are aggregated user sentiments and not medical advice. Individual results will vary.

"This is a game changer for my dry skin. I mix a tiny bit with my matte foundation and it completely transforms it into a dewy, hydrating dream. No more cakey patches!"

"It gives you that K-drama actress glow. It's not shimmery at all, just a pure, wet-looking dewiness. I love using it on my cheekbones for a natural highlight."

Fair Caveat: A user with oily skin on Reddit mentioned that while they love the glow, it's too much for their T-zone. They recommend using a mattifying primer first or only applying this product to the high points of the face to avoid looking greasy by the end of the day.

Is this a highlighter?
It can be used as a liquid highlighter, but unlike traditional highlighters, it contains no shimmer or glitter particles. It creates a natural, dewy sheen that looks like healthy skin, not makeup.

Can I use it without foundation?
Yes. You can apply it to bare skin on the high points of your face for a subtle, natural glow on no-makeup days. Make sure to apply sunscreen first.

Will it make my pores look bigger?
The glossy finish can sometimes emphasize texture on some skin types. If you have large pores, it's best to use it as a targeted highlighter on smooth areas like the top of your cheekbones rather than all over the T-zone.

Is it sticky?
It has a viscous, honey-like texture that can feel slightly tacky on its own. However, when mixed with foundation or applied in a thin layer and set, this tackiness subsides, leaving a smooth, dewy finish.
