Achieving a perfect complexion without using an ounce of foundation (like the look seen at Marc Jacobs this season) is a tall order for the majority of us who aren’t a genetically blessed model or born with Beyoncé’s #nofilter facade. Hence the reason Kevyn Aucoin’s Sensual Skin Enhancer (a pot of heavily pigmented cover-up) and Tinted Balm (a medium coverage BB cream) continue to be two must-haves for achieving an airbrushed finish. For those who still want that same camouflaging power but desire a less “makeup-y” feel, the brand is launching Sensual Skin Silk Fluid Foundation this month (starring Guinevere Van Seenus as the “bare-faced” beauty in the campaign), a serum formula that weightlessly blurs imperfections. The best part: It doesn’t slide around your face like similar products on the market—you can even tap it onto blemishes like a concealer. Needless to say, we plan to use this bottle to fake out the fashion crowd and show off our not-the-least-bit-stressed-or-sleep-deprived skin through the end of the month.
