I’ve been on the lookout for a perfectly matte foundation for a LONG time. After lots of successful trials and errors and too many trips to Sephora, I’ve finally found my match. For the last month, I’ve been using Tarte’s Amazonian Clay, $39.
This foundation has a really thick but smooth consistency, allowing it to spread across your face and provide really full coverage. It also lasts better than many other foundations I’ve used. It says it lasts a full twelve hours and it honestly does. Added bonus: it has SPF 15 in the formula.
A little of this foundation goes a long way. I apply it in the morning after letting my moisturizer set in. I then dab a few drops of it on each part of my face and use a brush to blend it in. I set it with some bronzer and I’m good to go!
