All about that base

Not everyone needs foundation. There, I said it. Coming from a makeup artist, this may come as a shock to some women. In this age of HD video and photography where every image is scrutinized and criticized, somehow less does translate to more when it comes to choosing the right base for your skin. 

Yes, not everyone is blessed with even-toned, blemish-free, pore-less skin and there are days when wearing a full face of makeup is necessary to feel good about yourself. But on good skin days, you don’t really need to use your full coverage foundation, especially in this humid Manila weather and the possibility of being photographed in bad lighting. 

Women nowadays are learning to embrace the beauty of bare skin with some makeup tweaks and tricks here and there to enhance, not cover up the face. Here are some of the newest bases available for you to try, from skin caring serums with a hint of coverage, sheer tints and cream foundations that leave skin dewy, not cakey.

M.A.C. Lightful C 2in1 Tint and Serum with Radiance Booster, Glorietta

ADVERTISEMENT

M∙A∙C’s newest innovation comes in a unique dual-chamber bottle that holds two potent formulas, a treatment serum and a brightening tint. Both formulas target a variety of skin concerns, from dark spots and dehydration to uneven skin tone, all with the help of the Lightful Radiance Booster, composed of cucumber extract, apple extract, Baikal skullcap extract and vitamin C to help brighten skin. It also moisturizes the skin and offers a light tint for those who want just a hint of coverage. In two weeks it promises to even out skin tone and reduce the appearance of dark spots. It comes in five shades from light to dark deep.

NARS Velvet Matte Skin Tint, Central Square

This skin tint from NARS delivers soft-matte perfection and protection. Its oil-free formula delivers NARS’ signature natural-looking finish and shine control with the skincare benefits of an all-in-one treatment. NARS’ innovative Velvet Illusion Complex technology creates a soft-focus effect with a soft-touch feel. Transparent Blurring Powders instantly enhance the look of skin by helping to blur imperfections and even the tone. Skin doesn’t look flat, masked, or chalky. Delivers sheer-to-medium coverage that lasts comfortably through the day. In nine shades, from the lightest ivory to the deepest mahogany, which offer soft-matte coverage for every skin tone.

THE BODY SHOP Fresh Nude Foundation, Megamall

Everyday is a good skin day with Fresh Nude Foundation from The Body Shop. Enriched with English rose water and aloe vera, this hydrating formula leaves skin feeling fresh and comfortable throughout the day. It also contains SPF 15 to help protect your skin. With a semi-matte finish, each of these 16 nature-inspired shades mimics the look of fresh-faced natural skin with a nude glow. You can also use the shade-adjusting drops (sold separately) to either lighten or darken your foundation depending on the condition of your skin, whether you’ve just gotten back from a sunny beach holiday with a tan or a winter getaway where skin may look pale.

MAX FACTOR Miracle Match Foundation, SM Makati

Miracle Match Foundation cleverly balances medium coverage with a translucent finish for a look that gives a beautifully blurred effect and nourishes with hydration at the same time. Added to the formula are light reflecting particles to reduce and soften the appearance of skin imperfections. Pat McGrath, global creative director of Max Factor Cosmetics and world-renowned makeup artist, claims, “Max Factor Miracle Match is a fantastic foundation; it gives flawless looking beautiful skin. And that’s the beginning of any glamour transformation – good skin!” Available in 18 shades that cover a global skin-tone spectrum.

INGLOT Cream Foundation, Glorietta

It is a subtle cream foundation that provides even yet natural coverage. With a matte finish gives the skin a dewy appearance because of the added illuminators in the formula. Vitamin E, peptides, and special polyesters are combined with a unique silicone and gel base to keep all skin types bright and fresh. This foundation is also suitable for use with airbrush makeup equipment. Comes in 41 shades for every skin tone and color.
