Daiso Makeup Base Mint

Daiso's makeup base range has quietly become one of the most talked-about finds in the J-beauty world — and the Mint version is the one for anyone whose skin tends to look a little dull or sallow. Mint colour-corrects yellow and tired-looking skin tones, giving your foundation something genuinely good to sit on. The result is a brighter, more awake-looking base without any extra effort.

• ✦Daiso Japan — the brand that keeps making beauty products that make you rethink your whole routine
• ✦Mint shade — neutralises yellow and dullness so your foundation looks fresher and more luminous on top
• ✦Lightweight primer base — smooths skin texture and helps foundation stay on longer throughout the day
• ✦Invisible under foundation — blends away completely so no colour shows through your base

• ✦Chromium Oxide Green (Mint Pigment) — the colour-correcting agent that counteracts yellow and dull skin tones on the colour wheel
• ✦Dimethicone — fills in pores and fine lines to create a smooth, even canvas for foundation
• ✦Glycerin — keeps skin hydrated under your makeup so your base doesn't dry out or look patchy
• ✦Silica — controls surface oil and extends foundation wear, especially useful in Bangladesh's humidity

1. After moisturiser, apply a small amount onto fingertips or a sponge
2. Blend evenly across the face — it will look mint at first, then disappear as it blends in
3. Apply foundation on top as normal — notice the difference in how bright and even your base looks
