Rodial Airbrush Make-up, $45

If you're willing to put some muscle into applying this foundation, the jaw-dropping results are worth it.

Best Full-Coverage Foundation That Goes Beyond the Call of Duty
Marc Jacobs Beauty Re(marc)able Full Cover Foundation Concentrate, $55

Out, damned spot! This foundation can legitimately conceal anything you throw at it, without making you look like a cake-face or smothering your skin. You only need the teeniest bit of this pigment-packed foundation (seriously, it contains twice as much pigment as other full-coverage foundations) to cover over your entire face, so the bottle lasts forever. It contains emollients like jojoba and acacia, so it blends evenly, plus golden mica to give skin that Instagram-filter-IRL soft-focus finish.
