Many water-based foundations are formulated to provide dewy-looking light coverage, but if you want the benefits of a water-based foundation without sacrificing a full-glam, full-coverage look with stay-all-day wear, I recommend my AIRbrush Flawless Foundation. This gorgeous full-coverage foundation has velvety, natural-matte coverage that feels weightless. It sets down to create a longwearing makeup base that looks airbrushed and flawless!

To give your complexion a candlelit glow while priming it for makeup, smooth Wonderglow onto skin before applying your water-based foundation. Wonderglow is a water-based primer designed to give skin a beautiful, illuminating, soft-focused effect. It helps skin to look smooth and blurred while boosting radiance and creating a glowing canvas for foundation to glide onto.
To give your complexion a smoothing, blurring effect before foundation, apply Invisible UV Flawless Poreless Primer SPF50. This water-based primer is also a sunscreen, providing daily SPF50 protection that helps shield skin from harmful UV rays. I recommend applying my SPF primer every day as essential sun protection – it layers beautifully with each of my water-based foundations and perfectly primes your complexion for makeup.
