Foundation recommendations from experts
Namrata Soni
Make-up artist to celebrities like Sonam Kapoor and Rani Mukerji, Namrata Soni’s go-to foundations for all seasons are the NARS Natural Radiant Longwear Foundation and the Guerlain Parure Gold Skin Matte Foundation.“Both are hydrating and long-lasting, eliminating the need for touch-ups throughout the day. They perform well in all weather conditions,” she says.
Shradha Luthra
Shradha Luthra loves the Dior Backstage Foundation and the Very Valentino Foundation.
“The Dior Backstage foundation is waterproof, lightweight, buildable, and mimics the skin. It contains beneficial ingredients like squalane and hyaluronic acid, making it suitable for any skin type and all weather conditions,” says the MuA, “Very Valentino is also buildable with a semi-matte finish that photographs beautifully. It looks natural on the skin and is excellent for achieving glamorous looks without appearing cakey, making it perfect for brides.”
Ojas Rajani
Ojas Rajani believes that the best foundation for all seasons is the Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation. “They have the perfect shades for Indian skin tones,” she says, “It looks like second skin and is buildable, sweat-proof, works for all skin types and lasts up to 24 hours.”
Anu Mariya Jose
Make-up artist Anu Mariya Jose is also a part of the Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation fan club for its lightweight texture and flawless finish. She also loves the Charlotte Tilbury Beautiful Skin Foundation and Dior Forever Skin Glow Foundation. “The Charlotte Tilbury Beautiful Skin is my go-to for dry skin as it contains hyaluronic acid which prevents any dry patches. With its medium coverage, as claimed, it truly revitalizes the skin!” she says, adding that her second pick is “perfect for dry to combination skin and is ideal for both daytime wear and building up for a nighttime party. Its satin finish formula delivers a natural glow.”
