Despite the new trend of dewy-natural-fresh-faced looks kicking around atm, a good foundation is still an essential, even if it’s just for the occasional event/ night out. Foundation products and the brands that make them are always going in and out of fashion, but we’ve got some staple foundations that have stuck with us through thick and thin, regardless of the latest trend.
This designer foundation is certainly worth the high price tag. With lightweight application, seamless coverage and a luminescent, long-lasting finish, not to mention the fact that it comes in 15 shades, this foundation is one we swear by.
