Our new high-performing, skin-perfecting foundation underwent major road testing under seven different photo lighting conditions to deliver flawless camera-ready makeup every time.

• The formula is also a "breathable" formula in which you can still feel that your skin is moisturized and not caked up.
• Since the consistency and formula of this is not runny and not thick, this applies well with either brush or beauty sponge. You can even use your fingers to apply this and still the finish would be perfect. 
• If you want a fuller coverage then you should use a brush, but if you a thinner coverage then use a brush.
• There are various shades available for this foundation that you can really find the right shade for you.
• If you have dry skin, this foundation will be the best foundation since it will not emphasize any dry patches on the skin and this doesn't feel dry and cakey.

2. L'OREAL True Match Foundation

This foundation has the most light weight and most flawless finish of all. Many also find this foundation to have so much movement on the skin and they say it doesn't hold up? The following might be the reasons why!

The Positive:

• There are at least 20 shades available range on this foundation and that's a lot. That means you can really find your right shade. 
• Second is that it is housed on a glass bottle with a pump, which makes it a good one and you know there's atleast quality for $7 (Php 350-500). 
•  It has flawless finish to the skin which looks like it blurred out fine lines and pores. Another thing is that this had a watery formula which makes it super lightweight and not cakey at all. 
• Lastly it had a smooth application to the skin. It is medium coverage and can be buildable.
• You can use a stippling blush for more coverage and a damp sponge for a sheered out finish. 

The Negative: 

• If you have oily skin, you might not like this due to oil build up on the face, it moves the foundation all over and mixes up with the foundation which makes it patchy and not hold up. 
• If you are an oily girl and want to try this, you need to use a mattifying primer so that this would cling to your skin perfectly.

•  This won't feel heavy on the skin and will still have a flawless finish.
