Much like my ill-fated crushes, when it comes to foundations I have a type. Light to medium coverage and 'glowy'. So, when I first heard about NYX Professional Makeup's Born To Glow, I hoped it would be a match, but little did I know we would end up in a fully committed relationship. We really do expect a lot out of our foundations. First, the shade range has to be decent — we’re not messing around with limited shades and minimal undertones these days. Next up, the formula needs to include plenty of moisturising ingredients like hyaluronic acid to keep our skin dewy and hydrated.There’s no information on this product that states that it’s non-comedogenic.
