As the blank canvas is important to the painter, a good foundation is where any make-up maestro should begin their work. So whether you love a liquid, a powder or a dreamy cream, there’s bound to be something new and exciting to get your hands on.
No matter if you prefer a heavy coverage or a barely-there tint, foundation is the make-up staple that women swear by. I know that my finished face (eyes and all) doesn’t look quite the same without a good base – and my foundation provides just that.
My current base beloveds are:
Revlon PhotoReady Makeup, which provides the kind of coverage I love when I want a streak-free base with slightly heavier coverage – it’s like a confidence boost in a bottle.
Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation is my equivalent to a healthy diet, for the face. The fruit-enriched formula is packed full of antioxidants, non-greasy and provides eight-hours of moisture.
Estée Lauder Resilience Lift Extreme Radiant Lifting Makeup SPF 15 is not a necessity for my 21-year-old skin, but I find it so smooth and lightweight (plus I love a preventative) – it’s my sunny day staple, as it makes my skin glisten without being shiny.
Some great new formulations to try
