What is a light coverage foundation?
On the opposite spectrum to a full coverage foundation, a light coverage foundation provides a sheerer veil over the skin that helps to even out the skin tone. For those who want a lightweight foundation that brightens their complexion and helps to lighten any blemishes, a sheer coverage foundation is a perfect choice.
What is the best light coverage foundation?
If you prefer an everyday, simple makeup looks, try a sheer coverage foundation. While light coverage foundations are natural looking, they are also very buildable. The best light foundations can be layered easily and should be able to achieve medium coverage. With the sheer finish of light coverage foundations, layering any face powders like powder foundations or blushes should look natural and smooth.
What is the best foundation for a natural look?
To achieve a natural makeup look, it’s best to use products that layer well and don’t tend to look too thick. Before foundation, we recommend applying a face primer. This will help to fill in your pores and create a smooth, flawless canvas for your foundation application. A sheer coverage foundation is your best friend when it comes to natural makeup. It provides light coverage without erasing absolutely everything. All you need is a thin layer followed by a bit of concealer over any blemishes, and your face will look brighter and more even without looking unnatural. To finish off the look with a healthy, dewy glow and to ensure that your makeup lasts as long as possible, you might also want to add a setting spray.
