I’m not the biggest fan of stick foundations, and there’s a reason for that. As someone who experienced quite a lot of acne in their late twenties, I tend to stay away from any form of coverage that exaggerates my skin’s texture. I find the often thick and dry formulas of stick foundations difficult to blend out to achieve the natural look I crave.
After years of trialling the best foundations to cover my spots and remain natural looking on my skin, my acne has mostly cleared up now. I have tried countless formulas, including the best foundations for oily skin, formulas that are great for acne-prone skin and the best drugstore foundations. And it's safe to say I’m still most drawn to foundation formulas that look very natural on the skin—tinted and serum formulas will forever be my favourite. So when I heard that Fenty Beauty had released a stick foundation that acts like a tint, I was intrigued to say the least.
