9 Light-As-a-Feather Foundations to Carry You Into Spring

Foundation is basically the blanket of all beauty products—and as the temperatures heat up, you're likely transitioning from a full-on down comforter situation to a lighter cashmere throw. When it comes to your foundation? Same. The genius elixirs blur imperfections, mask any signs of redness, pimples, or pores, enhance your natural glow, and basically send your skin confidence through the roof.

The thing is, the typically heavy makeup bag essential can feel shellacked-on when temperatures are high. (Who enjoys waking up early in the a.m. to apply makeup only to sweat it off a few hours later?) Enter foundations that provide all that creamy coverage minus the sensation that you're coating your skin with a heavy formula.

These lighter options contain nourishing ingredients—with everything from jojoba oil to broccoli seed extract—that boost your complexion as they cover blemishes, so you're less likely to feel like you're rocking an actual blanket on your face in summer temps. Win-win.
