All-in-one foundation recommendations

I'm looking for a quick and easy foundation solution for school-run mornings. Can anybody recommend a good all-in-one....those where it's a compact with a sponge. I am a normalish skin type with a bit of an oily t-zone and prefer a medium coverage. Thanks.

I have been buying foundations for over 35 years, from the most expensive to the cheapest. The best two are by Laval, which is excellent but I use a separate primer etc.

The one I use daily is Max Factor face finity all day flawless which I apply in under 30 seconds with a foundation brush. It stays on all day. I use two shades, beige when my skin is lighter and golden when I am darker.

It does not budge but unlike Estée Lauder it does not look obvious and is the most natural full coverage foundation I have ever used. Since I have been wearing it, I get women saying, "it's ok for you, you don't wear foundation,"!

I apply with a brush, maybe that helps and I cannot say what it looks like if not applied with a brush.
