10 best foundations for flawless, radiant skin this 2018

2018-04-24

Finding the perfect foundation can be difficult – and we’re not just talking about the shade!

From full coverage to adding extra radiance, everyone’s skin – and preference – is different, so we’ve rounded up the ten best foundations out there right now to suit everyone’s skin.

And while you might know what you like, do you know what your skin prefers? Those with oily skin should, in general, stick to matte finishes, whereas dry skin owners should opt for an oil-based formula instead.

As prices range from £4.98 to a luxurious £42, there’s certainly a little something for everyone and their bank account.

1. Estee Lauder Double Wear Stay in Place, £29.25

If you’re after a high coverage, this is the foundation for you, offering a flawless complexion no matter what your skin type.

Despite its strong effects, it somehow manages to retain a light and velvety finish, making it a go-to all around the country for people after a foundation that will really do the job properly, without looking over the top.

You can get it from Allbeauty for £29.25.

2. MAC Face and Body foundation, £24.50

3. EX1 Cosmetics Invisiwear liquid foundation, £12.50

A lightweight, ultra-blendable concoction, this foundation is ideal for anyone seeking flawless radiance.

The foundation contains intriguing ‘true colour’ pigments and light diffusers that apparently work in harmony with your skin’s natural tone, rather than covering it up with a blanket layer.

Pick it up from Lookfantastic for £12.50 .

4. Bourjois Healthy Mix foundation, £9.99

5. L’Oreal Paris Infallible 24hour foundation, £10.99

6. NARS Sheer Glow, £33

7. Armani ‘Luminous Silk’ liquid foundation, £42

8. Rimmel Wake Me Up foundation, £4.98

The cheapest of the lot – this doesn’t act like any old reject from the bargain bin, offering full coverage, as well as a dewy glow.

And that’s not it, it also contains SPF 15 in too, meaning it’s an all day, every day kind of foundation that convince everyone at work you’ve had eight hours of sleep. Ah, the trickery of make-up.
