Each year scientific innovations raise the bar on what is right for you so revisit your foundation, and check out what
is new.
If you have good skin and prefer something with a tinted moisturizer, try a sheer consistency. Minimal imperfections? look for light coverage. Medium coverage covers uneven skin tone and, broken capillaries, while full coverage targets pigmentation problems and ruddiness.
To test shades, blend the closest-matching ones along your neck and jaw line, and wait a few minutes, the color will warm and darken after sitting on your skin a little while. Judge the results in natural light. The one that blends undetectably is the one to choose.
