These are the foundations celebrities swear by
We're forever on the quest for the perfect foundation, and who better to look to for inspiration than celebrities? With their flawless skin, makeup artists and endless dollar, they know what's up when it comes to using the best possible base.
Foundation is arguably the most important part of our makeup routine. It covers blemishes, evens out our skin tone and mattifes or illuminates depending on our needs.
Luckily for us, these celebs aren't shy when it comes to revealing exactly where they picked up their products. They don't even break the bank. Well, not all of them.
