Explore our collection of buildable coverage foundations, including:
Full coverage foundations
For those of you who prefer something a little fuller, we have the perfect solution. Our Satin Silk Longwear Foundation is a Cosmopolitan Beauty Award Winner, giving you all the benefits of full coverage foundation in an ultra-lightweight, non-comedogenic formula. It’s completely buildable, meaning you can take your coverage from medium to full with ease.
We’ve also packed this foundation makeup with skin-boosting ingredients like Hyaluronic Acid and Vitamin E to increase hydration, while the added Niacinamide provides essential antioxidant protection. Combined with sweat-resistant pigments for extra longevity, you can get full coverage foundation and smooth-looking skin in one application.
Sheer skin tint foundations
Looking for something a little lighter? Check out HydraTint, the skin tint foundation that marries high-performing skincare with some extra makeup touches.
Enriched with Hyaluronic Acid, Ceramides, and Centrella Asiatica Water, this formula moisturises, hydrates, and protects skin integrity. All while the skin tint pigments offer you light, buildable coverage for a barely-there veil of colour.
Customise your coverage for the perfect foundation
Sit somewhere in the middle of full and sheer coverage, or prefer something a little more customisable? We’ve got you, with our Second Skin collection. Choose between:
- Second Skin Dewy: this medium coverage mineral formula has been designed for normal to dry skin, with a silky smooth texture that blends effortlessly.
- Second Skin Matte: ideal for normal to oily skin, this foundation makeup offers a lightweight, matte finish, with a talc- and oil-free formula.
Both makeup bases are completely customisable, so you can build up the coverage as you like across different areas of your face - or to easily go from a natural everyday look to smooth, full-glam.

Frequently Asked Questions
Still got questions? Find the answers you’re looking for below…
Q. What is foundation?
Foundation is the base of any makeup look. It enhances your skin by smoothing imperfections and evening out complexion to create a flawless canvas for the rest of your makeup.
Q. How do I choose the right foundation makeup for my skin?
To choose the right foundation, you need to think about your coverage preference and skin type.
- For dry skin: consider choosing a hydrating or dewy-finish foundation to keep moisture close to your skin.
- For oily skin: opt for a mattifying formula to reduce shine and excess oils.
If you’re looking for something low-key and more natural-looking, go for a sheer or light coverage foundation. This gives you a barely-there finish. For a finish that’s more “done”, choose a medium to full coverage formula to smooth out your skin.
Q. How do I apply foundation?
Applying foundation correctly is important to make sure you have a flawless makeup base. Some of our tips to apply foundation are:
- Start in the centre of the face and blend outwards for even coverage.
- Apply in thin layers to avoid cakey patches. Remember, it’s way easier to add more than it is to remove too much (without starting over).
- Cleanse and prep your skin before using foundation, and consider using a Primer to help improve longevity.

Q. Should your foundation be lighter or darker than your skin?
Your foundation should ideally match your skin tone perfectly. However, sometimes you may need a slightly lighter shade for winter, as you may lose some of your tan compared to summertime skin.
The best way to test your shade? Blend three shades along your jaw line and see which one matches your face and neck. Then, you can use other makeup such as blusher and bronzer to add colour and warmth to your complexion.
