Makeup Sets for Everyday Looks

Start with the complexion finish you want, then choose the base format and extra steps you will use. Cushion foundation, skin tint and powder foundation can offer different levels of coverage and finish. After choosing your base, decide whether a lip serum, serum spray or setting product makes the set more useful for your routine.

Choose dewy when you prefer visible radiance, satin for a balanced finish, or matte when you want to soften the look of shine. Skin preparation, coverage and application also affect the final result. Check the finish and coverage details for the specific base product included in each set.

Use the shade guide for the cushion, skin tint or powder foundation included in the set and compare the undertone and depth information with a shade that already matches you. Product photos and screen colors can vary. Make sure the selected shade appears correctly in your cart before checkout.

Contents vary by set. Depending on the listing, a set may include cushion foundation, skin tint, powder foundation, tinted sunscreen, lip serum, serum spray or setting products. Review the product names, sizes, shades and formats shown on the set page before adding it to your cart.

It depends on the specific set. Do not assume a cushion or powder listing includes both a full compact and a refill. Check the product title, images, variant selection and “what's included” details before purchase so you know the exact format and quantity.

Complete your regular morning skincare and sunscreen first. Apply complexion products according to their directions, add lip serum when desired, and use a true setting spray after makeup if its instructions say to do so. A serum spray may have different prep or refresh directions, so check its product page rather than treating every spray as the final step.
