We like this one for two reasons – it comes in 24 distinct shades (so you know you’re going to find a shade that matches you) and its coverage is amazingly customisable. Its dropper allows you to dispense just the amount of product you need. 2 drops will give you sheer coverage, 4 will give you medium coverage and 6 will give you an absolutely full coverage. The formula blends so well into skin that looks like a part of it and lasts till you decide to take it off!

When Rihanna launched her insanely good makeup line, her first product was this foundation. Everyone raved about its 40 odd inclusive shades, but not many talked about how well it lasts.
