Everyone loves a soft glow, but if your oil glands are already over-producing, which results in a not-so-cute shiny t-zone, you want to stay away from super dewy foundations. Instead look for a matte, oil-free, water-based formula to balance-out your skin’s oil production. Take a look at these H20-happy foundations.
Dior Forever 24h Wear Matte Foundation
This foundation offers buildable-slash-medium coverage with a texture that feels velvety and smooth on your skin. The formula is full of pansy extract, which is a super hydrating ingredient that will give dry skin a healthy glow.
Fenty Beauty Pro Filt’r Soft Matte Longwear Foundation
A Rihanna-approved foundation that diffuses every pore on your face.
IT Cosmetics Confidence in a Foundation
It is the newest foundation the brand added to its lineup that beauty lovers couldn’t stop talking about at the moment. Its oil-free blend of ingredients— ceramides, peptides, hydrolysed collagen, hyaluronic acid and squalane.
Too Faced Born This Way Foundation
Oil-free and formulated with coconut water and hyaluronic acid to keep your skin moisturised, just be wary that it’s not too dewy or hydrating if you have super oily skin.
Milk Makeup Blur Liquid Matte Foundation
Milk Makeup’s easy applicator uses a tip that minimises any exposure to air and eliminates drips that waste your precious money. The product uses light-diffusing technology to create a poreless, airbrushed effect.
Koh Gen Do Aqua Foundation SPF 15
This formula is expensive but not for nothing as it does deliver on its “post-facial glow” promise. Made with mineral waters of Bretagne, it brightens the skin by reflecting light to eradicate facial shadows, resulting in a glowy soft-focus finish.
