Where this list comes from

Finish 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. 7 foundations have no finish listed and are left out of this list. 248 foundations have no oil-free claim and are left out of this list.

The default order is by number of reviews across the retailers that sell each product. Fenty Beauty Pro Filt'r Soft Matte Longwear Foundation has the most, with 23,672.
