8 Best Budget Foundations In India

Hello beauties,

Foundations are one of the most important makeup products. The key to a beautiful makeup starts with a flawless base. While some high-end brands offer foundations which give dreamlike satiny smooth finish, they are often too expensive. But more and more drugstore brands are jumping on the bandwagon to make foundations that are high on coverage and low on price. Need help in choosing some budget foundations? Scroll down to take your pick.

1. Lakme 9 to 5 Weightless Mousse Foundation:

A lightweight, medium coverage foundation that gives a smooth velvety finish to the skin. The mousse glides and blends so easily and gives that beautiful second skin feel. Plus, it comes in a handy tube and is perfect for people who travel and are scared of fragile glass bottles.

Another gem by the Indian brand, this mousse foundation from the Absolute range is enriched with SPF 8. With a smooth and light texture, it blends like a dream and gives a smooth matte finish. Being oil free, non-comedogenic it does not clog pores and is great for oily-combination skin too.

This mousse makeup from Lotus will create the canvas you want for a beautiful picture. The thick mousse spreads easily and hides blemishes and spots. It doesn’t crease or dry out skin and sets to a powder finish which stays long.

7. L’Oreal Mat Magique 12H Bright Mat Foundation:

It is a perfect foundation for oily skin as it gives a non-cakey, smooth matte finish. It hides spots and covers light dark circles, controls oil and can survive a whole day. Also, did I mention that it comes in a stunning purple tube and has SPF 11 PA++?

8. Maybelline Fit Me! Matte+Poreless Foundation:

A medium coverage foundation that fills up pores and gives an even finish.
