There are even options defined by cool or warm undertones. The truth is that when it comes to cosmetics, especially when it comes to bases, the possibilities are endless. And that’s when doubt comes over us again and again, What’s the best way to find the perfect shade when there are an overwhelming number of options? Listening to our own skin again.

The right foundation formula can make applying makeup faster and infinitely more fun. and the perfect option to show a uniform skin adapted to its specifications. There’s something about truly glowing skin that makes extra makeup seem almost unnecessary, and after the summer when many people stop wearing makeup, now it’s time to find the perfect formula for every skin type and need.

from shelter imperfections, manage to soften the skin tone, creating the most flawless finish as if it were a glossy canvas, to reaching makeup bases perfect for mature skin. And it is exactly each of these options that will determine what type of makeup base we choose. To find out which of them is best for us, we have Rosa Roselló, Druni’s training director, who will reveal much more about the ins and outs of this superfluous matter that are makeup bases.

“The first thing to think about is: how we want the finish of the makeup base Would you rather go for a wet shine or more for a velvety matte finish? A full-coverage formula to keep you looking your best all day, or a second-skin effect for a no-makeup look? Or both? To find out, you need to pay attention to your skin type, whether it shines easily and needs to keep shine at bay, if you suffer from acne and want your foundation to be oil-free and non-comedogenic, or just want a foundation that is so light as air for an instant glowing effect”explains Rosa Roselló, program director at Druni.

It’s true here skin type becomes the protagonist and we have to distinguish between four different options: foundations for mature skin, foundations for dry skin, foundations for skin senses and foundations that give us that ‘No make-up’ effect so loved by younger skin only looking for minor corrections. We tell you more about each of them below.

“Mature skin should avoid heavy coverage foundations. Otherwise, the foundation will settle into any fine lines and wrinkles, accentuating them and giving them an aged look. Over time, as does the production of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid, pores enlarge, so make-up bases enriched with active ingredients such as ceramides or hyaluronic acid, which are light and have a natural finish, not matte at all, are the best option to revitalize and rejuvenate the face”assures Rosa Roselló.

One of the favorite options is Armani Luminous Silk Foundation. It is a lightweight, medium coverage and buildable foundation. Armani Beauty’s iconic makeup base provides perfect clarity and a radiant complexion to enhance natural beauty. Recommended by makeup artists and star favorite, Luminous Silk Foundation is oil-free and formulated with Micro-Fil technology, creating a low-density product that combines high-impact pigments with a lightweight texture. It is easy to apply thanks to its silky texture. Corrects, evens and perfects the complexion to enjoy instantly radiant skin. The hydrating formula provides light to medium buildable coverage.

“In the case of the dry skin I never recommend matte finishes as the skin will be stiff and dull. Ideal for this type of skin are moisturizing bases with a luminescent finish to inject that extra light they lack”says Druni’s program director.

An ideal option for dry skin? The even better refreshment, from Clinique. It is a full-coverage hydrating make-up base that provides a natural finish for 24 hours. Get perfect skin without visible pores, with smooth lines and visibly plumper thanks to hyaluronic acid, peptides and salicylic acid present in its formula. It is ideal for combination or dry skin.

“In this case, I always choose to recommend matte finish foundations, oil-free and non-comedogenic to prevent unwanted acne. Just because the makeup base has a matte finish doesn’t mean you can’t show off a glowing complexion, as there are currently options for a beautiful velvety matte finish and to finish, you can apply an illuminator in strategic areas, such as the cheekbones. , bones of the eyebrows, cupid’s bow or on the bridge of the nose. In the fall, I like foundations that can be built up opaque because you can layer them depending on the finish you want: a second skin effect or full coverage for a special event”reveals Rosa Rosello.

One of the #1 makeup foundations when it comes to these features is Estee Lauder’s Double Wear Foundation. Double Wear is a long-wear foundation that stays perfectly in place for up to 24 hours.

“The effect no make-up it’s an uptrend and that is increasingly used by celebrities and ordinary people. They flee heavy make-up and look for natural finishes and make-up bases that match and beautify the complexion of the skin. It is best to opt for light or modular formulas for this. You can apply it with your fingers for a more natural finish or by using a brush. Finish the look with a little blush on the cheeks,” says Rosa Roselló.
