Rarely is a foundation formula universally beloved. I have friends who swear by powdery, full-coverage makeup; my 71-year-old mom gravitates toward thick, full coverage creams, and I’m smitten with any smoothing, lightweight liquid that resists caking on my ultra-dry skin. That said, crowd-pleasing formulas do exist. Take, for instance, the e.l.f. Flawless Finish Foundation.
The formula has garnered over 22,000 five-star ratings and thousands of rave reviews. Remarkably, shoppers across all skin types and age ranges echo similar praises, noting the formula’s lightweight feel, flattering, skin-like finish, and budge-proof, cake-free wear. Perhaps most enticing of all is the price point: a mere $6.

The e.l.f. Flawless Finish Foundation is a buildable liquid face makeup that offers medium to full coverage and a silky, soft-matte finish. The formula, available in more than 30 shades, offers all-day wear and a hit of skin-plumping hydration.
The primary benefactor: Glycerin, a humectant that attracts moisture from the surrounding air and locks it into skin. As dermatologist Dr. Melanie Palm, M.D., previously shared with InStyle, "glycerin is one of a precious few moisturizing ingredients that has a lasting effect, well beyond its time of application and absorption.”

Despite its quenching feel, the formula is far from greasy. One shopper with oily skin calls it “flawless,” concluding “foundation can’t get any better.” Another, who has dry skin, says it surpasses “any expensive foundation,” citing “incredible” coverage and all-day wear — sans “moving, changing, or oxidizing.” Yet another fan, who has “aging skin”, commends the crease-resistant coverage, noting how the formula fends off dryness to boot. Finally, a shopper in their 50s remarks how it seems to lift “10 years” from their face: In addition to improving uneven tone, they say, it fills fine lines and smooths flakes “to the point they disappear.”
For foundation that imparts a smoothing, your-skin-but-better finish — at a truly phenomenal price — shop the $6 Flawless Finish Foundation from e.l.f. at Amazon.
