How Do I Know Which Coverage of Foundation I should Choose? | MVD

This question is a tricky. With so many options, even beauty gurus and makeup artists try out tons of products before finding their “HGs,” or “holy grail,” picks. The right foundation, primer, and concealer will also depend on your skin type and personal preference.

FOUNDATION 101

Foundations are classified into 3 types:

• Light-Coverage.
This is where your trusted tinted moisturizer or sheer coverage foundation is your choice. This class provides just a hint of color and coverage. They can also cover a bit of redness and skin unevenness.

• Medium-Coverage.
Most of the foundations on the market are in this category. This foundation lasts 4-5 hours. It can significantly cover some under-eye circles, acne redness, uneven skin and dark spots. This type of finish is great for girls with minimal imperfections who want to look flawless.

• Full-Coverage.
Typically used for weddings or events, this is a popular choice that lasts up to 8 hours. Some of the common options come in liquid, gel, or cream form. This class of foundations can cover everything from severe acne scars to redness and uneven skin tone. They can feel thick and heavy, though, so they’re not the ideal everyday product for all skin types.

Thank you,
