Foundations

A quality foundation should offer more than just good coverage - they should also offer protection against the sun, increase your skin’s natural radiance and create an effective barrier to stop pollutants that can accelerate ageing. Best of all, some have added minerals and vitamins that can be used as an added step within your skincare routine.

A Fresh New Take on Foundation  

Coverage is everything when it comes to face foundation. Light to medium coverage is great for beginners or those who prefer a more natural look. Full coverage can conceal blemishes, acne, hyperpigmentation and enlarged pores.  

Quick tip for choosing your foundation

Not sure which is best? Choose up to three different foundations and apply them along the jawline to the cheek and down the neck. If a particular shade blends seamlessly into your skin, you’re onto a winner! Also test foundations in natural light as different types can influence different tones.  

Does skin tone impact foundation colour and type?

Skin type will impact your choice of foundation makeup. If you have oily skin, use a powder or oil-free liquid foundation to absorb oil and to leave a gorgeous matte finish. If you have dry skin, choose a liquid or stick foundation, or a hydrating powder that delivers moisture and a creamy consistency to the skin. Have combination skin? Try mixing and matching foundation or use a powder foundation for lighter coverage and a matte finish.  

For those with sensitive skin who want a little extra protection, go for a foundation that includes SPF protection—they generally contain ingredients such as zinc oxide and titanium oxide.

The natural colour of your complexion, which can range from light to medium to dark (and everything in-between), is also something to consider. If skin tone varies in different areas on your face, focus on your jawline away from the apple of your cheek, where the skin has a more natural flush.  

Undertones are equally important. These are the tones underneath your skin and, unlike skin tone, usually remain consistent. These can be warm, cool or neutral, and can be identified by looking at more exposed areas like your wrist, chest and shoulders.
