Treat yourself to a one-on-one beauty service with a La Mer Expert.

At La Mer, we believe that the key to beautiful skin is soohting hydration. When cocooned in moisture, skin radiates a lit-from within glow and a youthful vitality. Not only does a luxury foundation impart a healthy-looking, radiant finish at a moment's notice, but it also provides essential hydration and antioxidant protection. 

There are multiple purposes of foundation. Multi-faceted formulas are designed to even skin tone, veil blemishes, and create a flawless base for concealer, highlighter and blush. With textures targeted towards a variety of skin types, foundation makeup can be used to achieve a glowy finish or lend youthful radiance to dull skin. Many of today’s formulas are enriched with skin-first ingredients that help nourish and protect. A foundation with SPF like The Soft Fluid Long Wear Foundation Broad Spectrum SPF 20 helps protect the skin from sun damage and infuses skin with renewing ingredients so skin can look and feel its best.

To best support your skin type, consider a foundation’s finish. You can enhance your tone by selecting our best luxury foundation for your needs:  

• Liquid foundation: This buildable foundation can go from a barely-there natural coverage to full coverage. The Soft Fluid Long Wear Foundation Broad Spectrum SPF 20 instantly hydrates  while providing fade-resistant color in 25+ shades.

• Cushion foundation: You can hydrate and plump the look of skin with luxury cushion makeup such as The Luminous Lifting Cushion Foundation Broad Spectrum 20. This travel-friendly, long-lasting foundation creates a luminous finish while protecting skin with SPF and potent antioxidants.

• Water-based foundation: This type of foundation is especially lightweight and ideal for restoring hydration. The Radiant Skintint Broad Spectrum SPF 30 is a sheer foundation that provides light coverage for healthy, glowing skin.

Smooth, flawless foundation application works best when integrated into a robust skincare routine. Daily cleansing and exfoliating help balance and refine the look of pores, while moisturisers immerse skin in soothing moisture, priming skin for foundation. After your morning beauty ritual, apply a small amount of foundation to the back of the hand and use The Foundation Brush—one of our best foundation brushes to achieve a flawless look—to apply outward, starting from the centre of the face out and moving down to the neck. To set your foundation, use a finishing powder like The Powder for a flawless finish.
