Laura Mercier's Silk Crème foundation has been around for ages now, though this newer oil-free version is ideal for those who want to avoid the extra glow that the moisturizing edition offers. Recommended by makeup artist Joanna Schlip, she adores it for its ability to build up without looking cakey, not to mention how easy to blend it is. To get a sheerer finish, try using a damp beauty sponge, which helps to disperse the pigment.
