Finding your perfect foundation is considerably harder than it sounds. You may know exactly what you want — a featherweight feel, undetectable finish, full coverage, moisturizing but mattifying effect, perfect color match, and stay-all-day wear time — but finding it is another matter altogether. Finding one that fits the bill for under $15? That’s a challenge, to say the least. Luckily, one of our favorite brands just stepped up in a major way, and you can expect to find all of those things in one, chic bottle when it launches on December 28.
Leave it to Nyx Cosmetics to solve all your problems with the introduction of their upcoming Total Control Drop Foundation. The budget brand has been on a roll lately, churning out eyeshadow libraries and destination beauty boxes that prove great makeup doesn’t have to be expensive. Their $14 foundation comes in 24 (!!) shades and features a velvety, matte finish. The glass dropper allows an impressive amount of control over your chosen finish; dispense fewer drops for a sheer glow and more for seamless coverage. The formula isn’t the least bit drying, either; you can barely feel it on your face once you blend it in, and it doesn’t do that annoying settling-into-your-fine-lines thing that makes base products instantly detectable. Nyx is also releasing a $14 Total Control Drop Foundation Drop that features a specially cut brush head that glides over the nooks and crannies of your face, but there’s no doubt that the foundations are the real winners. With their weighty glass bottles and sleek and chic design, they look considerably more expensive than their actual price tags. Way to totally win at makeup, Nyx!
