In a
post to r/makeupaddiction, Reddit user Wsh1 shared the foundation she’s currently obsessed with, TeenVoguereports. Sharing
an image of Wet n' Wild's Photo Focus Foundation ($6), Wsh1 goes on
to write, "The cheapest foundation (under $5!) yet it wears just as
beautifully (for 11 hours thus far) as all other ones I’ve tried! My
combination-oily skin was blown away!"

In
response to her post, multiple people threw in their two cents about the
product as well, with responses like “Best coverage versus lightweight I have tried so far!"
and "Hands down the best
foundation I’ve ever tried!” flooding the thread.

Now,
it shouldn’t be too surprising that this foundation has such a strong
following. According to the brand, the “high-performing, skin-perfecting foundation
underwent major road testing under seven different photo lighting conditions to
deliver flawless camera-ready makeup every time.” Translation: the
foundation uses a light-diffusing complex to give skin a flawless finish
regardless of the intensity of the light you’re in, meaning it'll look perfect in natural light and in front of a camera flash.

All in
all, the formula is cruelty-free, available in 20 shades and comes at a super
affordable price point, so you can slather on the makeup completely guilt-free.
