Coverage That Doesn’t Cake

Some days I don’t want to fuss with foundation, but I still want to look pulled together. This is my everyday answer: What the Foundation by Jones Road. It’s easy, it’s quick, and it really does replace three steps in one—hydrator, skin tint, and glow.

What’s said
The transcript

Just start by taking a little bit. This is What the Foundation by Jones Road. Honestly, you don't need much. This is probably a little too much, so I'm gonna wash my brush off. Watch how this just blends in. It's super hydrating, so it's really good for normal to dry skin or mature aging skin. This is a medium to full coverage. As a 40-year-old, I'm always looking for something that's a little bit more lightweight that will still give me enough coverage to make my face look evened out. And you can just tell by the texture. It's super hydrating and dewy. It's gonna be one that's not going to sink into any of your fine lines and wrinkles. And it's loaded with skincare. So it's not only gonna give you that coverage and put-together makeup look, but it's going to also benefit your face from the ingredients in it. I was getting so tired of my foundation making me look older. It's supposed to make you look better. And look at how that just smooths everything out and just creates an even look without looking like cakey makeup. If you find yourself feeling aged when you put on any sort of foundation, you just need to change your foundation. I'll take this one to this video. This is such a goodie to add to your lineup.
