Wedding season is officially here and this also means that we need to restock or stock our vanity for a better and more glamorous wedding look this season. After all, everyone needs some good gram pictures to commemorate the season and look super fly. And, the first step to a glam makeup look is a solid high coverage foundation that covers all of your blemishes and scars to deliver a cleaner and fresher look.
A good high coverage foundation keeps blemishes and regular touch-up sessions at bay, along with the constant stress of reapplying makeup every 5 minutes. This is perfect for big days when you’re out and about having the time of your life, and retouching makeup is the last thing on your mind. Moreover, a good high coverage foundation lasts a longer time than a regular or everyday foundation, which is why it’s a good idea to invest in a quality foundation, even though it is a little bit on the pricier side.
Let’s check out the best high coverage foundation available in the Indian market.
