Lakmē 9 to 5 Powerplay Priming Foundation , 25ml

The Lakme 9to5 Powerplay Priming Foundation combines liquid foundation coverage with built-in priming technology. This foundation is designed for the professional Indian woman whose base makeup needs to survive a full work day from morning meetings to evening plans. Lakme's proprietary priming grip technology helps the formula hold to skin for 10 to 12 hours without a separate primer step. Non comedogenic, dermatologically tested. Made in India by Hindustan Unilever. BIS compliant. Lakme built the 9to5 range specifically around the Indian professional woman's daily routine demands.

The 25ml tube provides 2 to 3 months daily use. Delivers medium to full buildable coverage. Indian shade matching. Flashback free. Humidity resistant. The 9to5 design philosophy means this foundation performs through air-conditioned offices, commutes, and post-work social plans without midday touch-ups. For maximum longevity on 12-plus hour event days, pair with the blur pore primer underneath to extend the priming effect further. Paraben free. Cruelty free.

1. Is the Lakme 9to5 Foundation designed for office wear?

Yes. Specifically engineered for professional women whose base makeup needs to survive 8 to 10 hour work days including AC offices, commutes, and after-work social events. For the office-ready lip to match this foundation's professional positioning, a office-wear matte bullet from the same Powerplay range delivers the identical priming technology at lip level for a coordinated 9to5 face and lip routine.

2. Does the Lakme Powerplay Foundation really work without primer?

Yes. Built-in priming technology provides 8 to 10 hour grip without separate primer. For 12-plus hour events, adding the blur pore primer extends the priming effect further. For the complete event look above the extended-wear base, a party-ready sparkle kit gives all the event eye and lip drama that sits above the 12-hour primed foundation.

3. How is the Lakme 9to5 Foundation different from the Lakme Forever Matte Foundation?

The 9to5 Foundation focuses on priming technology for maximum wear time. Lakme Forever Matte focuses on maximum matte finish and sebum control. 9to5 for longevity. Forever Matte for matte intensity. For the eye look that works equally well above both foundations, a bold glitter eye palette adds shimmer lid colour that elevates any base — matte or priming — for evening and event occasions.

4. How many shades does the Lakme 9to5 Foundation come in?

Wide range covering Indian warm undertones from fair to deep. For a concealer that matches within the same warm undertone calibration, a HA matte concealer spot-corrects in a matching shade before the priming foundation blends over for a seamless, even complexion.

5. Is the Lakme 9to5 Foundation suitable for oily skin?

Yes. Semi-matte finish with priming grip. Non comedogenic. Works well on oily skin especially when set with a Lakme compact. For a radiance boost on normal skin days when a fully matte finish is not needed, a skin radiance glow base mixed with this foundation adds a subtle lit-from-within luminosity that the priming grip then locks in place for the full day.

6. Is the Lakme 9to5 Foundation flashback free?

Yes. Photographs naturally without white cast. Safe for professional photography and video calls. For an equally flash-safe mascara above the photographically tested foundation, a bold volume mascara builds full, defined lashes that photograph naturally above the no-ghost foundation base.
