Hi all,
Do you have any idea how to change the font size of the product description, tried to add the below code to the
base.css but the description font size didn’t change at all.
.product__description {
font-size: 18px !important;
}
thanks,
Jac
Topic summary
Goal: increase the product description font size in the Shopify Dawn theme. Initial attempt adding .product__description { font-size: 18px !important; } to base.css did not take effect.
Key steps and suggestions:
- Share store URL (provided: https://gallery0206.com/) to inspect.
- Use a broader selector to catch nested elements: .product__description * { font-size: 18px !important; } in base.css.
- Add custom CSS at the bottom of theme.liquid (the main layout file) above the tag to ensure overrides load last; this can help when base.css changes aren’t applied due to specificity or load order.
- Apply separate CSS targeting the homepage section if the issue appears only there (e.g., featured product/sections on the home page may need their own selectors). One responder referenced a homepage-specific fix and shared screenshots of the expected result.
Notes: base.css is the theme stylesheet; theme.liquid is the layout where global custom CSS can be injected. Images were used to demonstrate the result.
Status: a responder observed the font size appears fixed; final confirmation from the requester is not recorded, so resolution is likely but unconfirmed.
Hey @JacJacC
Can you share your Store URL so I can have a look on it? Also, if you have password enabled then please share the password as well. Your cooperation would be greatly appreciated.

Hi @JacJacC ,
You can try this code by following these steps:
Step 1: Go to Online Store->Theme->Edit code.
Step 2: Search file theme.liquid
Step 3: Paste the below code at the bottom of the file → Save
I see your store looks very nice, warm, and elegant, but in my opinion, you should consider adding a heading banner + CTA button on your main banner. it will help the customer easily purchase the product bestseller and increase traffic product page
Hope my solution works perfectly for you!
