Out with the Old, in with the New: A Lightweight Foundation
Foundations have always been a makeup must-have for people of all skin tones and skin types. The purpose of a foundation is to give the skin a flawless finish by evening out the skin tone and eliminating scars, hyperpigmentation, acne spots, blemishes, and more. Most makeup users choose foundations based on the extent of their coverage. While most people prefer using full coverage foundations, lightweight foundations with medium to full coverage are a recent trend makeup gurus are currently gravitating towards. Here’s why using a lightweight foundation is a good idea.
A Skin-Like Finish
Lightweight formulas for foundations are usually made with water and a combination of hydrating ingredients that work towards giving the skin a naturally flawless finish. As opposed to full coverage foundations, these foundations don’t look like a mask and mix well with the skin to give it the radiance, glow, and sultriness it needs to look fresh.
Light to medium coverage foundations might not be great for covering up imperfections. However, you can always build them up to get the coverage you’re looking for in some facial areas. Today, lightweight foundations are the perfect choice for everyday makeup looks, glass skin makeup looks, and natural makeup looks.
Breathability
Breathability is a significant concern among people who use a lot of makeup. Full coverage foundation, despite being a good choice for airbrushed looks, often lays on top of the skin in the form of a mask. It tends to feel heavy on the skin, especially after it’s baked or set with a lot of powder to prevent it from moving out of place.
However, when using a lightweight foundation, the product doesn’t work like a mask and works with your skin to even out your skin tone while allowing the skin to breathe. It’s one of the reasons why people with dry and acne prone skin often prefer to use lightweight foundations on a regular basis.
Easier to Avoid Cakiness
Full coverage foundations tend to make the skin cakey and crusty if not applied after proper priming and moisturizing. However, this is not a risk to worry about with lightweight foundations. These foundations are incredibly hydrating, especially for use during the summers, making you look flawless without the need to frequently fix your makeup to prevent cakiness.
