"My all-time favorite full-coverage foundation is the Estée Lauder Double Wear Stay-in-Place Foundation. This long-lasting foundation gives you the fullest coverage and keeps your skin matte all day! I use this foundation, and it helps cover all of my imperfections." — Seropian
Customer Review: "I have struggled since the beginning of my makeup journey to find a long-wear matte foundation for my pale, oily skin. This is my dream foundation. I wish it came with a pump, though. I don't care how expensive this is. I'll always repurchase."

Pros: Full coverage, fragrance-free, provides a luminous, matte finish.
Cons: May be too matte for dry skin types.
"Next on my list is the Huda Beauty #FauxFilter Foundation. This foundation is known for its high coverage and ability to even out the skin tone. It has a velvety texture and a long-lasting formula that helps create a flawless finish all day!" — Seropian

Pros: Medium to full coverage, contains fermented arnica to reduce redness, large shade range, helps even out your skin tone, noncomedogenic.
Cons: Tends to get dry after 5+ hours.
Although this foundation is technically labeled as "medium coverage," I've found that it applies more like a full coverage foundation—a little goes a long way. It's honestly one of the best foundations I've ever used for sensitive, acne-prone skin because the formula is completely noncomedogenic. The only downside is that it tends to dry me out when I wear it all day, but that could just be my own issue since my skin gets dehydrated easily. 
Customer Review: "Such a silky, lightweight product, and coverage is impeccable. This foundation is by far my new favorite. Highly recommend especially to those with rosacea. Stays on with a naturally smooth finish. Thank you for this amazing foundation!"

Pros: Replexium technology helps reduce the appearance of wrinkles, while the full-coverage formula provides a matte finish and refreshes and hydrates the skin throughout the day.
Cons: May be too matte for some.
The name of this classic foundation from Charlotte Tilbury says it all. It's long-lasting, weightless, and contains extra skincare ingredients to keep skin looking flawless.

Customer Review: "Honestly, this is full coverage and makes my skin glow. I'm getting a darker shade for when I tan."

Pros: Oil-free, lightweight, noncomedogenic, unique formula with 60% water that transfers moisture to the skin without oil while reflective circular pigments provide adjustable coverage, and skincare ingredients help calm irritation.
Cons: Expensive.
This medium-to-full coverage formula from Chantecaille is buildable and has so many good things going for it. Yes, it is a bit pricey, but it's definitely worth the money, in my opinion. Fun fact: It's one of the first foundations I tried as a beauty editor and remains one of my all-time favorites. It glides on so beautifully and smoothly and never dries my skin out. I also love that it contains soothing ingredients like chamomile, arnica, and aloe, making it great for sensitive, acne-prone skin.
Customer Review: "I have combination skin, rosacea, and occasional acne, and this is the BEST foundation I have ever used. Why? It hydrates yet doesn't leave my skin oily. It covers without looking cakey. It lasts all day. I rarely have to powder at all. It doesn't oxidize. All of this, and it isn't tested on animals! Hallelujah! Best foundation ever."

Absolutely incredible foundation - I only used a sample and will 100% splurge on this. My skin looked FLAWLESS! Will have to keep testing to see it in different settings. Stayed on in 100-degree Texas heat and did not MOVE."

Customer Review: "Great coverage and finish! I generally use high-end foundations, and this one was as good as any I've splashed lots of money on. The coverage is buildable, from a natural look with a beauty blender to something higher coverage. It might be a little drying, though, so I do have to use a hydrating mist over it as the day goes on."

Pros: Budget-friendly, designed to be a primer, concealer, and foundation in one.
Cons: Tends to oxidize a bit after applying.
Covergirl's Outlast foundation is unique because it's designed to be a primer, concealer, and foundation in one. It also provides a dewy finish, glides onto the skin smoothly, and lasts all day.
Customer Review: "I just finished my first bottle and immediately repurchased a new bottle. I'm currently on my second bottle. I have oily/combo skin, and I find that this foundation lasts all day, even in humid and hot weather. I've worn this to Disneyland in the blaring heat, and even after sweating and going on water rides, my foundation was still perfect at the end of the night. Please do not discontinue! I will repurchase this over and over."
