It’s almost summertime and with the warmer weather approaching, it’s time for us to stock up on products that will keep everything locked down in place while being sweat-resistant.

Powder foundations have always been a thing. In fact, it was the first kind of foundation I used when I first started my makeup journey. Powder foundations are often used by people with oily, combination, and/or acne-prone skin because they have the ability to soak up the excess moisture on the face. I love a good shine-free foundation, don’t you?

Ahead of the summer season coming, I wanted to share five of my all-time favorite powder foundations to ensure that you stay matte and beautiful throughout the long days.

Fenty Beauty Pro Filt’r Soft Matte Powder Foundation, $36

I love this foundation mostly because there are 50 total shades to choose from. If you’re a fan of any of Fenty Beauty’s foundations, then you know that the brand does not fall short when it comes to providing us with the best of the best. This one specifically is not cakey on the face and adds a blurring effect.

Dior Backstage Face & Body Powder-No-Powder, $40

Powder-No-Powder? Yes, the name is exactly what this foundation is. It makes your skin matte but does not dry out the face. It’s perfect to use even if you don’t have oily skin because it is super hydrating on the face.

MAC Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation, $33

I couldn’t curate this post without including the OG. This foundation powder was one of my first and still to this day, I find myself gravitating towards it. It’s great for those with acne-prone skin because it’s ultra-smooth on the face and does not appear cakey. There are a whopping total of 53 shades, making it super easy for you to pick out your foundation.

L’Oreál Paris Infalliable Fresh Wear 24H Powder Foundation, $13

I couldn’t not include drugstore options for you all that don’t want to break the bank. This foundation became viral on TikTok for all the right reasons. Its texture is super lightweight and it goes on like butta! It does an amazing job of masking pores as well.

Maybelline New York SuperStay Powder Foundation, $12

I love the texture of this powder foundation. It is so creamy and seriously melts right into the skin. It’s also super buildable if you’re a full-coverage kind of person.
