This foundation is sold every two minutes globally and it's a game changer.

Bare Minerals Original Foundation is a mineral base that contains only five ingredients and is officially so pure "you can even sleep in it". Not something we would ever recommend but intriguing all the same. In terms of coverage, it's buildable, "sheer to full" coverage and we're obsessed with the naturally luminous finish it provides. This particular hero product has a range of 30 shades, with one to suit pretty much every skin tone. The insanely popular buy is priced at €29.50 and the benefits include a longwearing formula (eight hours) and a creamy texture that helps to disguise fine lines and wrinkles. I'm often sceptical about beauty products that promise to transform and change your life BUT this one really does what it says on the tin. I have oily skin and makeup tends to melt off so when hearing about longevity from a lightweight product, I was intrigued. I put it to the test recently and I'm happy to report that it actually did last for the eight hours, maybe not quite so flawless at the end but still intact all the same. It's the perfect mix of a product that gives long-lasting radiant coverage but looks natural and allows your skin to breathe at the same time, not the easiest combination to find. If you haven't tried this product but want a lighter base, it's well worth a go.
