Made Up! 6 Beauty Bloggers On Their Go-To Daytime Foundation

Many of us stick to the same foundation for day and night, but unless you’re working with a really buildable product, what works for nighttime might simply be too heavy for all-day wear.

When it comes to choosing the right foundation, we know its best to turn to the true experts – the beauty bloggers and MUAs who have tried them all.

Here’s what six bloggers recommend as their top daytime foundation pick…

Pippa O’Connor

Her pick: Benefit Hello Flawless Oxygen Wow Foundation, €37
Why she loves it: “It goes on very smoothly, no streaks or lines. It’s very light but gives just the right amount of coverage.”

Suzanne Jackson

Her pick: Maybelline Fit Me Foundation, €11.99
Why she loves it: “I love how lightweight it feels, like I’m not wearing makeup at all… I adore the finish which isn’t like any other foundation I’ve tried – I wouldn’t say it is matte and I wouldn’t say it is dewy, but a natural luminous finish making you look like you’re having a good skin day.”

AJ Fitzsimons

Her pick: L’Oreal True Match Foundation, €22.99
Why she loves it: “It is a medium to full coverage foundation and it’s build-able… It doesn’t cake and it’s one I always go back to and ensure to have stocked in my drawer!”

Rosie Connolly

Her pick: Stila Stay All Day, €37.99
Why she loves it: “The best thing about this is how long it lasts. I have applied this at 7am some mornings for a busy day of shoots etc and by bedtime it has barely budged, except for around my mouth from eating.”

Emma Henderson

Her pick: Boots No 7 Stay Perfect Foundation, €20
Why she loves it: “A very under-rated product but a lovely daytime pick that I wear to work quite often. The finish is semi-matte and this offers coverage that’s on the lighter side of medium with a fresh luminous finish.”

Charlene Flanagan

Her pick: MAC Studio Fix Fluid, €31.50
Why she loves it: “This foundation has always been my old reliable. I absolutely love the flawless finish it leaves on the skin, I love how its buildable so its suitable for medium coverage for daytime and full coverage for evening.”
