I’m constantly on the search for the best organic foundation, so I was happy to get my hands on this Lavera Natural Liquid Foundation. Its tagline describes it as a hydrating foundation that blends easily and hides imperfections, creating a porcelain-smooth canvas. Sounds great, but is it true?
There are six shades in the range: I ordered a few samples of 02 Ivory Nude and used them for a few days before posting this review.
A bottle of the Lavera Liquid Foundation holds 30 ml of foundation and comes with a pump dispenser. I love pump dispensers, and I wish all liquid products would have one. Lavera foundation is very runny, and that makes it easy to apply. The shade 02 Ivory is a light/medium neutral beige. I am quite pale so 01 Ivory Light would be a better match for my skin tone.
The Liquid Foundation offers a sheer light coverage. It does even out the skin but doesn’t cover major imperfection, so a concealer is a must with this foundation. I was pleasantly surprised that it felt comfortable and didn’t dry out the skin or clung to dry patches. However, it started disappearing from my face after a few hours of wearing it so I won’t be repurchasing full size because of that.
This liquid foundation is available online at Lavera (US) and Big Green Smile (UK/rest of Europe) for $25/£12.90.

thank you! x
Awesome! I have oily skin too. I am looking for a natural primer to use, right now, I haven’t found a good one because those help so much with keeping the foundation on/lasting. I recently started putting cornstarch in an old mineral powder container and brushing it on with a kabuki brush here and there when I get oily and that has been helping. A make up artist taught me that!
My skin is actually dry, but the foundation still started disappearing from my face after a few hours of wearing it. Thanks for the good advice about cornstarch powder!
