A foundation stick is being hailed by shoppers as ‘the best, especially for mature skin’, and it comes in a variety of different shades for less than £40. The Your Skin Foundation Stick from Jones Road is currently available for £36.
It is described as a medium-to-full buildable coverage foundation that ‘looks and feels like your best skin’. The creamy formula glides on and blends effortlessly for comfortable wear, leaving a smooth and natural finish which is ‘never cakey’, the site says.
The foundation is non-comedogenic and is said to be packed with nourishing ceramides, squalane, and sodium hyaluronate, with the brand saying it ‘puts your skin first’. To use it, shoppers can simply swipe it directly onto the skin and then blend with their fingers or a brush, depending on preferences. It is buildable, too, in case more coverage is wanted.
For an alternative buy, shoppers could look at the Dior Forever Skin Perfect Foundation Stick, which also comes in various shades, for £49 from Boots. This is described as a multi-use foundation stick with 24-hour wear and hydration that achieves a natural, blurred finish. It is said to be resistant to heat and humidity and ‘incredibly buildable’, too.
Or at LookFantastic, there’s the BareMinerals Complexion Rescue Luminous Skin Tint Stick for £22.50, down from £33.50. This is a portable skin tint stick which glides on to hydrate, smooth, and even skin tone. The site says it delivers a natural glow and 24-hour wear, and it resists sweat, water, and humidity.
The Your Skin Foundation Stick from Jones Road has been rated positively by shoppers, however. One person said: “I use the What the Foundation and decided to try this product for a bit more coverage. Perfect. So easy for a fast, natural look on a busy morning. Just toss in my bag and go!”
A second wrote: “This foundation stick is the best, especially for mature skin. It provides dewy not dry coverage.” While a third added: “The best coverage for my mature face.”
Others were more critical in their comments, with this person saying: “Lightweight, effortless look on days when foundation feels like a lot of work. The colour palette runs a little lighter than expected, next time I may go a shade darker.”
Another person commented: “It doesn’t cover dark spots as well as I had hoped, but I love how easily it covers and how it feels on your skin. The big problem is that I chose a shade too dark for my skin.”
