There are a wide range of foundation types, each creating a different final look to your skin.

• Sheer foundation : Sheer foundation formulas normally offer the lightest coverage and therefore the most natural look, allowing your natural skin tone to show through. This is a good choice for those with great natural skin tone and younger skin.

• Liquid Foundation : Liquid foundation provides light to medium coverage. Liquid foundation is often chosen as it provides a natural look and feel while still offering coverage of those imperfections and flaws.    

• Compact Foundation : Compact foundations provide the combination of liquid foundation and powders in the one product. Ideal for those on the go and little time for lengthy makeup routines, compact foundations provide coverage similar to that of a liquid foundation and the feel of a powder when dry. Application with a dry sponge will provide a lighter and sheerer coverage. Applying with a wet sponge will offer a heavier matte coverage.

• Cream Foundation : Cream foundations usually provide the most significant coverage, helping to create a flawless look. The application tends to be quite heavy, and is therefore favoured by television personalities. It may provide a slightly unnatural look in person. Cream foundations can moisturise the skin, so may be useful for those with normal to dry skin.   

• Matte foundation : Matte foundations provide a flat, even coverage and can be used for skin types.

• Illuminating Foundation : Illuminating foundations have been designed to provide that "natural glow". They often contain crushed pearl or other minerals to create skin tones with a subtle shimmer.    

• Stick Foundation : Stick foundations are usually foundations and concealers in one product. They offer convenience for use and application but can require skilful blending due to their heavier texture.   

• Tinted Moisturiser : Tinted moisturisers offer the lightest coverage available, delivering a sheer, healthy glow to skin. Similar to liquid foundations, they cater to all skin types. Their moisturising properties can help protect the skin against drying and may provide UV protection with various SPF’s.

• Primer : Primers are making a resurgence and are part of the foundation family, Often colourless and applied with a sponge, primers can be used to prepare the skin for foundation or can be worn on their own to even out skin tone, minimise the appearance of pores and to provide a smooth complexion.

When you find an item you like on eBay Singapore, it is important to read the item description carefully, informing yourself about the foundation - including shade, size, benefits, and expiry date. Most sellers will include several pictures of the item, taken from different angles and distances. Take the time to look at these pictures to get a good visual of the condition and shades. More than 90 percent of the products sold on eBay Singapore are new and unused--often brand new and in box--so you can feel assured that you're receiving the same product sold in retail stores
