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. 218 foundations have no SPF value and are left out of this list. 13 foundations have no ingredient list and no fragrance-free claim and are left out of this list.

The default order is by number of reviews across the retailers that sell each product. CoverGirl Olay Simply Ageless Instant Wrinkle-Defying Foundation with SPF 28 has the most, with 10,016.
