The Best Foundations That Stay Matte Even Without Setting Powders

May 17, 2019

The Best Radiant Foundations That Will Help You Achieve Glowing SKin Without Looking Oily - Featured

As the weather in Singapore is pretty humid, foundation can slide or appear patchy after a few hours of wear. Setting it with powder, especially around the T-zone can help, but turn to any of these foundations for complexion that stays matte without needing setting powder.

The Best Foundations That Stay Matte Even Without Setting Powders
#1 Armani Beauty Fabric Foundation Balm, $120
image

This balm foundation sets into a cream powder semi-matte finish that lasts the entire day. A little also goes a long way with its high coverage formula.

#2 Benefit Cosmetics Hello Happy Soft Blur Foundation, $51
image

This sets to a second-skin finish with its light-to-medium coverage formula and blurs out imperfections with something called soft-focus optical blurring spheres that never cakes up the entire day.

#3 Estee Lauder Double Wear Stay-in-Place Makeup SPF 10, $70
image

This oil-free foundation gives a natural matte finish that stays for an entire day without touch-ups. Its waterproof, oil-controlling and transfer-resistant formula also helps your complexion stay shine-free and fresh, whether you’re indoors or out.

#4 Fenty Beauty Pro Filt’r Soft Matte Longwear Foundation, $52
image

This liquid foundation also has an oil-free formula that gives medium-to-full coverage. It’s resistant to sweat and humidity, but gives a second-skin finish.

#5 Guerlain L’Essentiel Natural Glow Foundation – 16h Wear, $94
image

This liquid foundation is formulated with 97 per cent natural ingredients such as mineral pigments and marine and plant extracts. These help protect skin from pollution and blue light, and strengthen skin barrier functions to prevent skin from getting dehydrated and developing signs of premature ageing such as hyperpigmentation and dull skin. It gives a dewy finish, so those with oilier skin types may feel that they need to put on the loose powder to set it, but we don’t find that we need it.

#6 HERA Black Cushion SPF34PA++, $75
image

This cushion uses a technology that lets the foundation set into two hydrating layers after application, and an Ultra Fine Powder Dispersion technology which gives full coverage with minimal product used. It also has a semi-matte finish and minerals coated with amino acid to blend better into skin without oxidising.

#7 Lancome Teint Idole Ultra Wear Foundation SPF 15, $68
image

This is another long-lasting foundation that doesn’t require a setting powder or spray. It’s oil-free and gives medium-to-full coverage, and has silica that absorbs sebum for a shine-free complexion.
