Guide to Foundations and the Best Foundations

The right foundation is crucial for a beautiful makeup base. But finding a good foundation in the jungle of thousands of foundations can be difficult. In this post, we share some of the best foundations.

Liquid, mousse, powder form and minerals. Today, there are a plethora of different foundations. But what is the best foundation for you that fits your skin type and needs? Below we have divided some of our most popular foundations by dry, normal, oily and sensitive skin so that you can easily orient yourself.

Dry skin foundations

Add moisture and luster. You who have a dry complexion should invest in a moisturizing, semi-coverage foundation. In addition to moisturizing and keeping your skin soft and supple throughout the day, it contains reflective pigments that capture light, optically reduce fine lines and give you irresistible luster.

Normal skin foundations

Use lightweight products You who do not feel dry or oily but want to smooth your skin tone can benefit from the new generation of ultra-light foundations that let your skin shine through. Thanks to lightweight ingredients, they barely feel on the skin and have a “blurring” effect. Alternatives to the foundation are colored day cream, BB or CC cream.

Oily skin foundations

Needs a matte finish. If you have a greasy complexion that easily becomes shiny during the day, you should invest in an oil-free, lighter foundation with degrading properties. Here it is extra important to foundation with a primer and to supplement with a depleting powder for a result that lasts all day. If you get light dandruff, a mineral foundation is preferred as it contains natural substances and does not clog the pores.

Sensitive skin foundations

Soothe the skin. If you have a sensitive skin that easily becomes red and irritated, you can advantageously choose a mineral foundation.
