Medium coverage foundation is the most popular foundation type for a reason. It gives you an even complexion while ensuring your skin looks natural. Plus, it's buildable, meaning the more you put on, the more coverage you'll have. (So those blemishes literally disappear from sight with a little extra product!) But knowing you want a medium foundation is the simple part. Deciding what formula and finish you want is where the heavy lifting comes in. Luckily, we're here to help. We've broken down each of our amazing medium coverage foundations for you below, so finding your perfect skin match is a breeze.
