10 Best Foundations That Are Lightweight, Transfer-Resistant And Long-Lasting

These new foundations and setting powders keep your skin flawless throughout a day of mask-wearing – yet won’t make your face feel dry or oily

June 23, 2021

Envato Elements

We’re slowly but surely bringing more makeup back into our lives, beyond mascaras, brow tints and eyeshadows. And that means wearing base makeup again, even under our masks.

Here are the new rules for bases: To achieve an even skin tone, opt for a lightweight base, such as a tinted moisturiser or colour-correcting primer, that won’t clog the pores.

For more lasting coverage, use a foundation with added skincare properties, like hydrating active ingredients that care for your skin throughout the day. And, you might also want to set your makeup with a light dusting of powder to minimise transfer, keeping foundation on your face and not on your mask.

There are base makeup options for every need here, whether you prefer something lightweight, transfer-resistant or with heavier coverage.
