Foundation Textures

There are various different types of foundation textures on the market and you need to find the one that suits your complexion the best.

Sheer foundations are one of the better choices for helping to give you a more natural look.
Sheer foundations generally contain silicon which helps them to glide easily over the skin without giving you an oily look.
By using this type of foundation sparingly it can appear as though you don't have any foundation on at all.

Oil based foundations are excellent for dry or flaky skin.
As many oil based products can appear to be a little bit heavy, it might be wise to add a few drops of toner to the solution before applying it.

Matt foundations on the other hand dry out extremely fast and they need to be applied rather quickly while taking care to blend them in well at the same time.
These foundations can be good for people with oily skin as they tend to remain matt for longer.

Cream foundations are excellent for people with aged skin as they help to cover surface lines and wrinkles while still maintaining a natural finish.

Light reflecting foundations have specially shaped particles that help to give a youthful appearance by reflecting the light off the skin.
