Products with a "dewy" or "glassy" finish are nice in concept... but in practice, they often result in a greasy-looking shine. This vegan, oil-free formula, deleted out shine around our chin, nose and forehead and left a lit-from-within glow (that we certainly didn't wake up with).
We found the whipped, cream-to-powder makeup to be equally effective at camouflaging redness and acne scars as at treating the skin: Among its ingredients are antioxidant-rich and skin-calming pea extract, vitamin E, along with ingredients to encourage moisture retention.
Sure, the likes of Natalia Dyer, Kaitlyn Dever and The Jonas Brothers have all worn this skin care-makeup hybrid on the red carpet. But the oil foundation (available in 16 shades) is so easy to apply, those of us without makeup artists can glean the same camera-ready complexions in seconds.
The lightweight oil absorbs quickly and covers evenly when pressed into the skin — no blending tools required. What's more, with moisturizing avocado and meadowfoam; soothing red raspberry and jojoba; and brightening camellia and rosehip oils inside, it's a great pick for those with dry skin.
You know how botanically-driven skin care products tend to smell amazing? Well, this makeup hybrid's got you covered. This new vegan launch acts like a classic foundation (stamping out redness and hyperpigmentation while leaving a luminous finish), but carries the kind of heavenly lavender scent usually reserved for luxury face oils. Maybe that's because spa-worthy ingredients are in its DNA; including jojoba, rosehip and vitamin E oils, shea butter, aloe leaf juice and skin-brightening malic acid.
