While we all want that perfectly flawless look of a great foundation, the best-sellers at Sephora can be a little pricey. Believe it or not, there are some cheaper foundation alternatives that have pretty much the same effect. Check out our favorite dupes for Sephora’s top 5 best-selling foundations.
A new release that quickly made its way to the top! This foundation was much anticipated after many dry skin users wanted the Fenty magic without the matte finish of its original counterpart (check #4). While the launch is exciting, you don’t have to spend to get a hydrating finish!
Many brands have launched dewy foundations and the drugstore did receive a memo. Revolution’s new foundation is already loved by many and is for half the price of the Fenty one. It’s creamy without being too thick, making it easy to blend. It wears long but people have noted it oxidizes (Fenty does too), so you might want to go a shade lighter.
While this Tarte foundation hasn’t been out for long, it certainly swooned the hearts of many people. It is Sephora’s second best-selling foundation, after all. The foundation has a natural finish and is made with all clean ingredients and includes SPF to protect you from that summer heat. It has light-medium coverage.
Much like the Tarte one, this foundation is all about the natural glowy finish. It’s also light-medium coverage and is designed to last all day. It’s also Jeffree Star approved!
Loved by many, not afforded by most. This high-end foundation is one of YouTube’s most coveted ones. It could even be said that it revolutionized stick foundations and people’s fondness of them. It’s medium-full coverage designed to have double the pigment a liquid foundation has.
But if you don’t have 246 dirhams to spend on a foundation, go for this one! It’s also medium-full coverage and is very buildable. I recommend using it with a damp sponge as it’s a bit tricky to blend with a brush even if you have oily skin.
This game-changing foundation is all about the full coverage without the cake! I wore it to my graduation, and it stayed put through it all, from 5pm-3am. It’s offered in fifty shades, so really, there’s something for everyone.
If you still prefer to spend a little less on your foundation, there’s no problem! Just like Fenty’s foundation, this one has a velvety matte finish and it’s long lasting. It’s very easy to blend and it doesn’t dry out your skin.
Huda Beauty really redefined full coverage with this foundation. It’s not going anywhere once it’s on your face, and it will hide anything you need it to, especially if paired with the Overachiever concealer.
And here’s another staple drugstore foundation to finish off this list.
