Hi girls, what are the best yellow toned foundations out there? I don't want extremely yellow but something with a nice yellowish tone and preferably in a dewy finish. Thanks in advance :)

Oh, and medium to full coverage as well as I have freckles and slight rosacea...

Thanks Star, which one has the better wear? I work outside in all weather so need something that sticks really well lol.

Bobbi Brown foundations are great for yellow toned skin tones, the stick foundation is medium to full coverage and so is the long wear fluid foundation ( being a liquid foundation, I'd say this one would suit you more). I also second the Becca Ultimate cover foundation.

Medium to full coverage that's dewy as well as longwearing is kind of a difficult combo IMO.
Usually more dewy things aren't very long wearing but I suppose it could depend on skin type.

From the drugstore, L'orèal True Match Super Blendable foundation is good although I've read that the yellow-ness varies from shade to shade. I personally use W4 Natural Beige and it's actually quite yellow once it dries down.
This particular one is more of a satin-semi matte finish. I'd say it's a medium coverage.

For more higher end the Studio Fix Fluid is great. Medium to full coverage. I find it gives a satin finish on me and lasts throughout the day.

If you want your makeup to not budge. I'd highly suggest looking into the PPI Blue Marble Selr sealing spray. This particular formula is better for everyday use and is water based compared to the stronger, Green Marble Selr.
It's great, really makes your makeup not budge and pretty much waterproof. Although, the green one works better for waterproofing.

NARS is really good I loved it but either or is also good especially when you use a setting spray angiel.

Too Faced born this way tends to run a bit yellow and it's medium to full coverage with a natural dewy finish. It's my favorite! It's made with alpine rose and coconut water so it's hydrating and great for dry skin (although I'm oily and I love it). Too Faced is also cruelty free 😊

Wow, thanks girls for the info...have just ordered some Nars so will see how I go with that.

I use primer and a setting spray usually and find my current foundation holds well throughout the day so will continue with the new foundation. I was looking at the Too Faced as well so if the Nars is no good Ill try that.

I havent seen some of the foundations you have listed in NZ for sale such as Becca and have never seen the PPI setting spray in stores either. We have a really limited make up selection really compared to other parts of the world.

Has anyone tried the Marc Jacobs foundation? We have it here in New Zealand and it seems to run yellow but it is pricey and not much about it but it stood out as a possible foundation to try.

Thanks again, this info is amazing :)

Use "green marble" setting spray on top of your whole foundation routine, green marble is the best setting spray out their from my opinion and it will keep your foundation and the rest of your makeup locked in for the whole day

I just bought the Marc Jacobs yesterday and I am in LOVE. I have yellow undertones and it works great. It's definitely full coverage, but it actually did leave a little sheen to the finish. So super cool. It is my new holy grail foundation. I love love love it.
