What I love the most about the sheer to medium coverage foundation is the applicator.

How To Use It: After cleansing your complexion with your daily face wash and following up with moisturizer and SPF, apply L’Oréal Paris True Match Lumi Cushion Foundation to your complexion by gently pressing the applicator pad into the sponge-like cushion and tapping it onto your skin, starting at the center of your complexion and working your way out. How To Clean Your Applicator: Nobody has time for a filthy makeup applicator—especially if it means your skin care is at risk!

Allow the applicator to dry completely before using it again. L’Oréal True Match Lumi Cushion Foundation, $16.99Editor’s Tip: Want to make your True Match Lumi Cushion Foundation compact last longer?
