Favourite not too expensive foundation

Looking a new foundation, ideally something light that still gives a bit of coverage and lasts well? Thinking more around the £10-15 mark max. Any recommendations?

No 7 hydraluminous.

Max factor lasting performance.

Try Phoera on Amazon. I got recommended it and decided to try it when I was reducing outgoings. A tiny amount does my whole face and the coverage is fantastic on my terrible skin. I do set it with powder but it lasts all day. Read the reviews.
I have a winter shade and a summer shade and currently mixing a bit of both as my tan is fading, definitely cheap enough to have both on the go. £6.87 a bottle!!

@Pointblank2 I use that too, I love it. After spending goodness knows how much on many foundations!

I am loving The Ordinary Serum foundation. Super light and dewy.

Pointblank2 · 11/09/2022 12:22

@AlwaysGinPlease I dread to think how much I spent on other foundations in the past, Clinique, Armani, Charlotte Tilbury etc. I certainly won’t be going back!

NYX foundations are my go to! Previously used double wear but find this is just as good!

No 7 hydraluminous.

I agree with this recommendation.

I love The Ordinary serum foundation too. Perfect shade match and lovely dewy coverage.

Bourjois health mix from amazon. Suits a normal to slightly dry skin type and doesn't look cakey

LifeInAHamsterWheel · 11/09/2022 12:36

The Phoera foundation is fantastic! I was dubious given how cheap it is but I'm glad I tried it.

Harrystylestutu · 11/09/2022 13:08

I love revolution IRL filter foundation, think it's £10

Never see anyone mention this one but Rimmel Match Perfection is better than most expensive ones I’ve tried and the concealer is nice too.

Ladyofthelake53 · 11/09/2022 15:52

I use No7 Hydraluminous foundation I find it very good, nice glowy finish, good coverage and colour match and not too expensive

Takenoprisoner · 11/09/2022 15:53

Rimmel serum foundation 25hr. Very comfortable to wear.

Also maybelline dream radiant foundation. Was recommended on here and gives a lovely finish.

Thanks everyone! Only problem is now I want to try all of these!! 🤣
