Best liquid foundations for all skin types (high end vs. drugstore) in 2017

How to choose a foundation? Which one is the best? Drugstore foundations are rapidly increasing their quality, but there are still many irreplaceable high end ones. Here you can find the best foundations on the market so far for oily, dry or normal/combination skin.

If your skin is oily, and you're on a budget, L'Oreal Paris Infallible Pro - Matte foundation is the best one out there. If you can afford to spend $40 or more, then Estee Lauder Double Wear Stay-in-Place is perfect - it truly stays in place all day, mattifies and leaves the skin freaking flawless!

Dry skin - the best drugstore foundation for dry skin is Maybelline FIT ME! DEWY + SMOOTH foundation. It's around $5, very lightweight and leaves the skin glowy! However, if you want to spend some extra bucks, then definitely go for Nars Sheer Glow foundation (most favorable among beauty vloggers on YouTube).

Normal/Combination skin - try Maybelline Fit Me! Matte &Poreless foundation. Eventhough it's made for oily skin, this foundation has a little bit of glow. This is the most popular and suggested drugstore foundation from beauty gurus ever. On the other side, the best high end foundation for normal skin is Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk foundation. It leaves the skin blurred and is great for textured skin, also one of the favorites among beauty vloggers.

The struggle is real out there! Don't give up until you find your true love (foundation, I mean). Let me know what worked for you!

Maybelline FIT ME! DEWY + SMOOTH FOUNDATION REVIEW

This is a perfect foundation if you want a natural glow and a light, yet buildable, coverage. The price on Amazon.com is just above $5. I love this foundation, especially for colder days when your skin needs more hydration. It’s very easy to blend. You can set it with a powder if you want more mat finish since it stays quite tacky. It is more suitable for normal to dry skin, but I think oily skin can also wear it if combined with a suitable mattifying primer underneath. One of my favorites!

L'Oreal Paris Infallible Pro - Matte Foundation Review

Overall, a GREAT foundation. 

The price is less than $10 on Amazon.com. Matte finish, full coverage and stays very long, most suitable for oily skin. If you have normal to dry skin, try putting a very hydrating moisturizer or primer. I have normal to dry skin and used it with L'Oreal Paris Lumi Magique Primer, a luminous primer, and worked very nice. It blurred out my skin and evened my skin tone. It sets very quickly so you need to blend it immediately and there’s no need to set it with a powder. It’s a nice foundation if you have any events or going on a night out. 

I wouldn't prefer it in winter if you have dry skin, it's more for other seasons when your skin doesn't need to be so moisturized.
