7 Matte Foundations for a Shine-Free Beat

Maybelline New York Fit Me Matte + Poreless Foundation

We love this drugstore foundation for its high coverage, versatile shade range  and weightless feel. It also minimizes and blurs pores, making it easy to get that flawless finished look

Lancôme Teint Idole Ultra Foundation

This oil-free, long-wearing formula is beloved for its extensive shade range and natural finish. The coverage is also buildable, so you can achieve virtually any look with more or less product. A little goes a long way with this formula, so start with a small amount and work your way up.

IT Cosmetics Confidence in a Foundation

Fans of the IT Cosmetics cult-classic CC Cream will love Confidence in a Foundation, which offers coverage and skin-care benefits like ceramides, squalane, peptides, hyaluronic acid and hydrolyzed collagen.

Urban Decay Cosmetics All Nighter Foundation

If you need your foundation to last all night (and day), we recommend Urban Decay Cosmetics All Nighter Foundation — a long-wearing formula with a matte finish. It’s highly pigmented, so you only need a few drops to get the job done.

Lancôme Dual Finish Multi-Tasking Powder Foundation

Powder foundation can be intimidating — especially if you have a dryer skin type – but its unquestionably great for getting an ultra-matte finish. If you’re considering taking one for a spin we recommend Lancôme Dual Finish Multi-Tasking Powder Foundation, a versatile formula that can be used wet or dry.

YSL All Hours Longwear Natural Matte Foundation

We love a good luxe formula, especially if it delivers stunning results. Such is the case with YSL All Hours Longwear Natural Matte Foundation, which offers buildable coverage and blurs the look of pores and fine lines. It also contains black tea antioxidants that hels to protect skin from environmental stressors like pollution.

Giorgio Armani Power Fabric Longwear High Cover Foundation

This award-winning formula is loved for its high pigment, lightweight, second-skin look, which dries down to a velvet-matte finish that makes skin look airbrushed. We recommend this formula for combination to oily skin types, because it won’t move and break apart as oil production increases. Expect this one to last through the day and look flawless the entire time.
