FAQs

What skin types is this foundation best suited for?

This foundation is primarily designed for normal to oily skin types, aiming to provide a matte finish and control shine. Those with dry skin may find it suitable if they adequately moisturize and prime their skin beforehand.

How do I choose the right shade of No7 Beautifully Matte Foundation?

It is best to test shades in person under natural light to ensure a good match. Online shade guides can also offer assistance, and the product line includes variations like Warm Ivory, Amber, and Calico.

Can this foundation be layered for more coverage?

Yes, the foundation can be layered for increased coverage. Apply subsequent thin layers rather than one thick coat to avoid a heavy or cakey appearance.

How long does the matte finish typically last?

The longevity of the matte finish can vary based on individual skin type and environmental factors. It is formulated for long-lasting wear, but those with very oily skin may require touch-ups or the use of setting powder.

Does this foundation contain SPF?

Information regarding SPF content is not explicitly provided in the product description for this specific formula. Please refer to product packaging for definitive details.

What is the difference between the 'Original Formula' and other versions?

The 'Original Formula' refers to the initial formulation. Newer or updated versions may exist with slightly different characteristics or ingredients. For specific details, consult the product packaging or manufacturer's website.

Troubleshooting

Foundation appears streaky or uneven

Ensure your skin is properly moisturized and prepped. Use a clean applicator (brush, sponge) and blend thoroughly from the center outwards. Shake the bottle well before dispensing.

Foundation feels heavy or cakey

Use less product. Apply in thin layers, building coverage only where needed. Ensure skin is well-hydrated. Consider a less dense application tool.

Shade does not match skin tone

Visit a store to test shades in person or consult online shade-finder tools. The No7 range includes other shades like Amber and Calico which may be a better match.

Increased shine occurs after a few hours

Ensure you are using the 'Matte' formula as intended. For very oily skin, consider using a mattifying primer underneath the foundation and a setting powder on top.
