The Ordinary serum foundation review

The Independent  

One of The Ordinary’s primary appeals is its price point and this is a very good foundation for a low price: just £5.70. The packaging is a divergence from the brand’s usual apothecary-style glass bottles; the serum foundation comes in a light, velvety plastic bottle with a pump. It also has SPF 15, with no chemical sunscreen, though we always recommend not relying on the SPF in your foundation but instead applying a separate product underneath, as most people don’t apply enough foundation for it to offer effective protection. The Ordinary says the serum foundation contains its “proprietary spreadability system” and it does apply beautifully: it remains wet for long enough to blend well and a small amount works out over a large area easily. The verdict: The Ordinary serum foundation If you want a lightweight, sheer coverage, natural finish foundation that lets your skin’s natural light and texture shine through without exacerbating the appearance of lines and pores, we highly recommend the serum foundation – especially considering its price point.
