Where this list comes from

Coverage is taken from the details each retailer publishes for a product. Where a retailer gives none, it is read from the product's name and description. Preferences come from the claims each retailer lists (vegan, cruelty-free, oil-free, non-comedogenic, clean), the SPF in the product name, and the published ingredient list, which decides fragrance, drying alcohol, silicones and parabens. 6 foundations have no coverage listed and are left out of this list. 14 foundations have no ingredient list and no silicone-free claim and are left out of this list. 10 foundations have no mineral claim and are left out of this list.

The default order is by number of reviews across the retailers that sell each product. Dior Forever Skin Perfect 24H Multi-Use Foundation Stick has the most, with 3,218.
