    Finding the right foundation for your skin can be a beauty nightmare, but this new beauty site has got your back...

    We all know it to be true, good make-up is built on the perfect (flawless) base.

    But finding a foundation to achieve this can be a little difficult, just the thought of browsing endless beauty aisles and counters is enough to put anyone off.

    Then you have think about what type of finish you’re after, will you go for a matte texture to beat the shine or are you after dewy glow?

    And what about coverage? Are you a sheer kind of girl or do you prefer to layer up when it comes to foundation?

    Let’s not even mention all the different types, first there came liquid, swiftly followed by the mousses, the mineral powders and now they even come in cushions.

    And who could forget (though we do try) about the dilemma of matching one to your skin colour.
