Sheer finish is a foundation that is almost transparent. The formula is also often referred to as tinted moisturizer or colored moisturizer. This is because the sheer finish foundation formula really blends with the skin but can still help improve the appearance of the skin texture. Generally, this type of foundation comes in liquid or compact form.
This type of foundation is suitable for all skin types, especially for those of you who have naturally smooth skin and want to appear natural. The texture is light and does not block pores so it is comfortable to use every day. Even so, this foundation with a sheer finish doesn't last long, the formula easily fades when you sweat.
2. Matte finish, suitable for those of you who want to appear with smooth, shine-free makeup.
Foundation with a matte finish gives the impression of smooth, shine-free skin. The formula can disguise the appearance of pores on the face so that the skin looks very smooth with full coverage and lasts longer. It's not surprising that this foundation is very suitable for those with oily and acne-prone skin.
However, if you have dry skin, you should avoid using this type of foundation because it can make your face look even drier. You also need to use moisturizer before applying this matte finish foundation so that your skin stays hydrated. Foundations with a matte finish generally come in cream or compact powder form.
3. Dewy finish, suitable for those of you who want to appear glowing.

As is known, recently foundations with a dewy finish are booming on the market. This is influenced by the beauty trend of Korean women who have the impression of fresh and glowing skin. This type of foundation is suitable for those of you who have dry skin and wrinkles. The reason is, the formula can fill and disguise the appearance of wrinkles on the skin while moisturizing the skin.
Dewy finish foundations are generally liquid and water-based or oil-based which can help skin stay moist and supple. However, unfortunately, foundation products that have a dewy finish will easily fade in hot weather or in areas with high humidity levels. Dewy finish is also not suitable for those of you who have oily skin, because it will make it even more oily and actually look dull.
4. Satin finish, a combination of dewy and matte finish which is suitable for everyday use.
Satin finish foundation is a combination of dewy finish and matte finish, which is suitable for all skin types. Satin finish foundation is usually medium coverage, able to cover imperfections in facial skin but doesn't look thick. The texture is very light and does not cover pores too much, suitable for everyday use. Satin foundation usually comes in liquid or cream form.
