The 40 best makeup foundations of all time

Finding a good foundation is easy, but finding YOUR foundation is another matter. We have concentrated the 40 best on the market, in one place.

It has been difficult for all of us to find the key but when you get it, you have half of your beauty look done. To help you in the task, we tell you which are currently the 25 best makeup bases with which to locate your better half. When choosing it , keep in mind that …

– You must try it on the neck area , not on the hand. The skin tone will more closely match your face.

– A good base, it matters. And no, we are not referring to the makeup base, but to the skin. Work it previously with primers and moisturizers that unify, illuminate and prepare it to receive the later makeup.

– Choose a base that is a shade (or less) darker than your natural shade for a more toasted look and good face effect .

– Think if what you want is medium or high coverage. The result can condition your purchase. Medium coverage will be ideal if you want to go natural with little makeup for every day. High coverage is perfect for big occasions.

– Evaluate if you want a makeup base or a BB or CC cream , that is, makeup funds with treatment.

– Think if you want your foundation with or without SPF.

– When applying , have a brush and a sponge at hand. The densest ones will blend better on the skin with the light touches of the sponge, although when it comes to spreading it , the brush is a must have. If they’re light, your fingers will work great.

In this selection you will find the best on the market (and the most up-to-date). Such as the new Clinique makeup base, which in addition to being a foundation is a treatment serum (because makeup is no longer just makeup), the latest from Fenty Beauty or the foundation version of the famous permanent lipsticks from Revlon.

But you will also find treasures to take into account, such as the classic Teint Idole Ultra Wear by Lancome, one of Charlotte Tilbury’s favorites or most sought after, the “Hollywood face” effect or the backstage makeup base from Dior. All of them stand out for their ease of application, their coverage and all the extras they have: treatment, fluidity, lightness … Without a doubt, the most famous on the market, concentrated in one place.
