Makeup fans have only just realised they’re using their foundation all wrong

THERE’S nothing worse than pouring an excessive amount of foundation onto your hands when trying to do your makeup in the morning. 

So fans weren’t impressed when NARS’ newest product, their Light Reflecting Foundation, came onto the scene without a pump bottle.

Or so they thought, as one makeup fan has just revealed that we’ve all been using the bottles wrong. 

Tessa, known online as @ttesssa, regularly shares lifestyle content with her 979 followers on TikTok. 

In a recent video, the makeup fan is seen reacting to another content creator’s video, where she reveals the secret pump inside the lid. 

Previously, shoppers have had to purchase these pumps separately, costing £3.50, from various retailers. 

“I have been using this foundation for two years. Surely not.” 

During the 15-second video, Tessa is seen holding and pulling the tube inside her foundation lid. 

This comes away from the square lid to reveal a small pump. 

Fans loved the reveal, with the video gaining more than 108,000 likes and 6.2 million views. 

In the comments, Tessa’s followers revealed they also didn’t know about the secret pump, with one writing: “Omg!!! I just ran to my Nars foundation! Had no idea and thought it was poor packaging!”

Another said: “The issue here is that the way the packaging is set up, the bottle automatically gives you “turn” vibes instead of “pull” vibes! Same w/ the blush.”

A third added: “No frickin way! Just found the same on my blusher!!! Why do they sell pumps like they don’t come with them?”

Although not all were impressed, with one writing: “Why isn’t it common sense to pull the lid first? I don’t understand.”

Someone else commented: “What does everyone think the tube on the lid is for??”
