## Even Better Clinical™ Vitamin Makeup Foundation 



#### £39 | Clinique 



 

Clinique is best known for its hardworking, dermatologist-backed skincare, and so it feels only right that its first foundation launch in four years comes complete with added benefits. Because of the current low humidity levels, a formula that can deliver lasting moisture goes a long way. This light coverage base does exactly that, keeping your skin both looking and feeling bouncy for hours. It also uses five forms of vitamin C to brighten – think natural glow, rather than full-on glimmer – and has an impressive 26-strong shade range.

*Available at* [CLINIQUE.CO.UK](https://click.linksynergy.com/deeplink?id=etT1jgERWYw&mid=37401&murl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.clinique.co.uk%2Fproduct%2F1599%2F131489%2Fmakeup%2Fface%2Ffoundations%2Fnew-even-better-clinicaltm-vitamin-makeup-foundation-spf-50)

## Prisme Libre Glow Serum Foundation 



#### £48 | Givenchy Beauty 



 

This is a luxe option if you prefer a decent, buildable coverage but with a barely-there feel. The serum-like consistency of this Givenchy foundation feels so lightweight on your skin, you could easily forget you were wearing anything. Part of the brand’s iconic Prisme Libre line, it’s effective at balancing out colour discrepancies: redness, sallowness, hyperpigmentation and like. Plus, each of the 30 shades are categorised by undertone, so you’re practically guaranteed to find an exact match.

*Available at* [GIVENCHYBEAUTY.COM](https://www.givenchybeauty.com/gb/p/prisme-libre-glow-serum-foundation-F20100225.html)

## Illusion Luminous Glow Foundation 



#### £58 | Hourglass 



 

Hourglass knows how to do a good base, and this is no exception. Creamy and slightly velvety in consistency, make this your go-to if you’re after skin-like freshness with subtle built-in radiance. The coverage is medium, but in a way that enhances rather than masks your natural complexion, thanks to its skin-friendly ingredient list. Made with hyaluronic microspheres, it not only boosts hydration levels, but also smooths over any uneven texture, creating a uniform, diffused finish.

## Tinted Moisturizer Natural Dewy 



#### £39 | Laura Mercier 



 

Tweaking a much-loved formula is always a bold move but this new-and-improved version of the Laura Mercier classic has got our vote. Granted it’s not technically a foundation but a tinted moisturiser, and yet it still earns a mention because of how well-suited it is to the clean, pared-back look. The vibe is still your-skin-but-better, but now it’s built to last all day. Apply with your fingers for a flattering, sheer-to-light finish.

*Available at* [LAURAMERCIER.CO.UK](https://click.linksynergy.com/deeplink?id=etT1jgERWYw&mid=50372&murl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.lauramercier.co.uk%2Fproducts%2Ftinted-moisturizer-natural-dewy-spf-30-uvb-uva-pa&LSNSUBSITE=LSNSUBSITE)

## Terracotta Le Teint Glow Foundation 



#### £50 | Guerlain 



 

True to its name, this Guerlain foundation is essentially a glowy tint. Unlike the original Le Teint with its ‘luminous matte’ finish, this feels fresher and more skin-like. Blurring the lines between make-up and skincare, it has a thin, water-like texture which immediately creates that plump, quenched feeling. It gives your skin that beautiful, lit-from within look using light-reflecting pearly pigment, but in a way that feels understated, never veering into shimmery territory.

*Available at* [GUERLAIN.COM](https://www.guerlain.com/uk/en-uk/p/terracotta-le-teint-glow-healthy-glow-foundation-longwear---no-transfer-P044236.html)
