Capitalizing on the latest technology, Jane Iredale Absence SPF 15 not only eliminates shine and controls sebum but also primes the skin, leaving it with a perfectly smooth surface for the application of our mineral foundations.

Jane Iredale Absence doesn't just absorb oil the way most oil-control products do, but actually helps to control over-active sebaceous glands. It has no effect on the actual moisture of the skin. The seaweed content in this product also helps to regulate the pH balance of the skin.

Jane Iredale Absence also keeps color true by forming an attraction barrier between the skin and makeup so that makeup can stay on longer, and skin stays shine-free. The interaction of oil and makeup is one of the principle causes of color changes.

One of the active ingredients in Absence is hydrated silica, which acts like a liposome. The hydrated silica forms a sphere with extracts of green tea, pomegranate and seaweed attached to the outside. The inside of the sphere is loaded with seaweed compounds that are released by the action of body heat. These seaweeds not only help to reduce sebaceous hypersecretion but also help to regulate the pH balance of the skin.

The now empty silica shell begins to absorb sebum without affecting moisture on the skin. Hydrated silica can hold seven times its molecular weight. By encapsulating the oil, it forms a barrier between it and the makeup so that the wearer can stay matte all day. Absence should be part of the daily routine of acne suffers.

The aesthetic benefit of Jane Iredale cream-based Absence, apart from oil control, is that it can be used as a primer for any type of skin. It literally fills things in making the skin smooth and ready to receive makeup. Remember, it has no effect on the moisture of the skin, only the oil.

The sponge in the compact is ABR (Acrylonitide-butadient rubber) and not latex.

You have to try this to believe it! Available in two shades: Absence (light) and Absence 2 (tan).

TIPS:
  • Absence 2 (tan) is for anyone who uses Golden Glow or darker.
  • Use on oily skin to help control sebum production and oily shine
  • Use on dry skin to help prevent large pore size from coming through or help hold hydration
  • You can apply Absence 1 or 2 using a flocked sponge or foundation brush to the entire face or just to the areas that need it.


Benefits:
  • Use under base to prime skin and control oil and shine.
  • Apply on oily facial areas with the special sponge included.
  • Also an effective primer on any skin type.
  • Helps control over-active sebaceous glands.
  • Keeps foundation color true.
  • Goes on clear.
  • Broad spectrum sun protection - SPF 15.

NOTE: These products may NOT be returned. Please make your selections carefully.
How to open the product: Absence features an air tight lid and seal to protect the product.  You may unscrew the outer lid to expose the airtight inner lid and use the edge of the top lid to open the inner lid (much like opening a paint can).

How to use Absence: Absence is a broad spectrum UV titanium and micronized zinc oxide SPF 15, oil absorbing, shine eliminator, and primer for the skin. Absence will literally fill in facial structures such as enlarged pores and provide a smooth surface for the mineral foundations. Absence uses hydrated silica technology that works like a liposome which can hold seven times its molecular weight. The silica forms a sphere with extracts of green tea, pomegranate and seaweed attached to the outside. The inside of the sphere is loaded with seaweed that is released with the application of the product and body heat. The seaweeds help reduce oil production and help to regulate the pH  balance of the skin. The empty silica shell absorbs sebum and will not affect the moisture content of the skin and may be used as a primer for any type of skin.

Apply Absence as the final step before foundation.  For instance, apply all skincare products, then Absence, then make-up.

Absence should be applied with the enclosed latex-free sponge to the oily areas of the skin or enlarged pores in a small amount. The product should be thinly spread over the skin and should appear translucent when worked into the skin. You are ready to apply the mineral foundation when Absence is thoroughly set in. Absence will form a barrier between the skin and the makeup so that the wearer can stay matte all day.
