Perfect the complexion with The Ordinary Coverage Foundation by The Ordinary Colours; a full-coverage foundation that arrives in a comprehensive shade range.

Enriched with a higher level of pigment to the serum foundation, the coverage formula boasts a rich, saturated effect, yet remains lightweight. Utilising treated pigments suspended in The Ordinary’s proprietary spreadability system, the foundation guarantees a natural looking, long-lasting finish that resists collecting in fine lines and appearing cakey. The foundation offers a coveted, full-coverage effect with semi-matte results, leaving the complexion flawless all day.

The makeup is available in 21 different shades, which are divided up into 3 categories. 1 is designed for fair to lighter skin tones, 2 for medium tones and 3 for dark. Each category is classified further by a second digit ranging from 1 to 3, to indicate its depth within a category. Finally, the letter at the end of the shade indicates its undertone; P for pink, R for red, N for neutral and Y for yellow.

A small number of shades boast an additional letter, S for silver highlights and G for gold. These foundations are infused with fine dispersions of metallic effect pigments, which add a luminous radiance to the complexion.

Perfect shade

I have very fair skin and often find even the lightest shades are too dark or orangey for me… but I really like the ordinary in cool neutral. Honestly I think this is best shade vs price I’ve found - and I’ve def shopped around! Despite its ‘coverage’ title, I’d say this is a medium rather than full coverage foundation, and is buildable. As I have combo/ oily skin I personally prefer their serum foundation’s texture & consistency - which I use a concealer and powder with on a daily basis (in winter). The products really are very good for their price and seem to last a long time. It would be great if they could add a decent SPF!

Good base

Great coverage. I chose a shade too light but under a darker powder it works well.

Total steal

For the price I didnt expect such a nice foundation! It's medium but buildable coverage and a nice lightweight consistency. I found it best applied with a damp beauty blender and set with a pigmemted powder for more coverage. So cheap and the colour range is awesome.

The Ordinary Coverage Foundation

Excellent. I cannot believe the quality for the low price. Great colour for my face and fantastic coverage that is buildable where I need it. It lasts all day too. I will stop looking at the high end foundations now!

Very nice for the price

I definitely wouldn't call this a "full coverage" foundation, but it does do a very nice job of evening out skin tone and leaving a nice natural glow. I find it applies best with my fingers then I finish it off with a beauty blender. I set on my T-zone with some setting powder and it lasts very well throughout the day. Doesn't settle into pores. I really like the shade numbering system of this foundation too. I found it really easy to get a perfect match without trying it in person. As a comparison for coverage, it's similar to NARS Sheer Glow (medium coverage). This isn't the *perfect* foundation for me, but for the price, it is absolutely fantastic and I will repurchase for those days when I want to wear makeup but don't necessarily want to use my more expensive or higher-coverage foundations.
