Product Spotlight: Haus Labs Triclone Skin Tech Foundation
@HausLabs
THE HYPE
Celebrity beauty brands are ten a penny, so it takes something pretty special to advance beyond the ever-mounting testing pile and into our personal stash. But the Triclone Skin Tech Foundation by Haus Labs – the brainchild of Lady Gaga – has done exactly that, thanks to its fluid, barely there texture and buildable medium coverage. This hardworking base first dropped in the UK back in the summer of 2023 when the brand became available to shop at Sephora, but it’s currently having a moment on TikTok, with new users taking to the platform to wax lyrical about its smoothing, skin-friendly formula.
THE FORMULA
Foundations that offer either medium or full coverage are best if you want to even out your skin tone and make it appear more uniform. Whether you reach for it every day or save it for a one-off event, this kind of coverage lends itself to covering blemishes, dark circles, hyperpigmentation and the like, more so than a lighter base that only delivers a sheer wash of colour. Fuller bases run the risk of sitting heavily on the skin’s surface and appearing cakey, but this particular foundation –available in a whopping 51 shades – feels unexpectedly light and almost serum-like in its consistency.
Silicones feature in the ingredient list, allowing it to blur texture and create a soft, slightly diffused quality. It’s also full of nourishing plant oils and the hero hydrator squalane to add slip, meaning it goes on smoothly and is well suited to drier types. If you’re prone to redness, it’s a great one to have on your radar since it’s powered by fermented arnica, which has anti-inflammatory properties.

THE BEST WAY TO USE IT
The key to a flawless base is good skin prep. First, allow your moisturiser to absorb fully. Then, pump a small amount of the foundation onto the back of your hand and smooth it over your face either with your fingers for a fresh, natural-looking effect, or a fluffy complexion brush to guarantee a streak-free finish. Build it up in the areas where the tone is more uneven, following up with a concealer to add brightness and lift.

THE REVIEWS
“It’s so hard for me to find a good foundation that works with my skin tone. This is the only one that actually works for me. It lasts forever, looks flawless at the end of the day, and I’ve barely made a dent after a few months of use.”
“This applies easily, gives good coverage, and stays on until you’re ready to take it off at night. It’s also not triggered any breakouts. I highly recommend it.”
“When I wear this foundation, I get so many compliments. It’s so lightweight and gives really smooth, even coverage while reducing redness. Top it with blurring setting powder and you’re ready for the day.”
“I’ve tried a lot of foundations on my changing skin over the years. This one is by far the most impressive of the group. It goes on flawlessly either with fingers, a sponge or brush, and melts into my skin beautifully, appearing dewy and as close to perfection as I can get.”
