Find Your Coverage

Whether you prefer a sheer tint, a soft matte finish or a full long-wearing look, we’ve got you covered.

 Avon offers 4 choices for foundation makeup each with it’s own coverage and finish. Here’s a guide for how to choose what to use.

For each formula I took a picture in incandescent light and in natural light. All formulas were worn with the same underlying skincare routine, with no primer, concealer or blush so you can compare each foundation on its own. I applied and blended a single light layer of all formulas using the fmg Complexion Blending Brush. Different looks and coverage can be achieved using bare fingers, brushes or sponge applicators and layering more product. All formulas are buildable and work well if you need more coverage in some areas.


For comparison purposes, I also took my photo with no makeup in both locations.

Match Tint Radiant Tinted Moisturizer
