  • Saie just launched its first foundation, the Glowy Super Skin Lightweight Hydrobounce Serum Foundation.
  • It's designed to give you a natural-looking, radiant finish.
  • The product comes in 36 shades with medium, buildable coverage.

I'll admit, I'm not a big foundation person. The full extent of my base makeup usually involves some concealer, cream blush, bronzer, and a little highlighter. That said, I still enjoy testing new foundations to keep up with the best, and occasionally, I do find a formula that I enjoy wearing enough to add it to my makeup bag (though I still usually save it for special occasions). When I first tried the Saie Glowy Super Skin Lightweight Hydrobounce Serum Foundation (£34) — a first of its category for the brand — I knew it had a place in my routine.

The Hydrobounce Serum Foundation is everything I want in a complexion product. It feels lightweight yet provides sheer to medium coverage, it has a radiant finish, and is packed with good-for-your-skin ingredients. A makeup artist shade matched me with colour 11, a light-to-medium colour with peach undertones.

Read on to learn why this foundation has made me reconsider my relationship with the category and how I use it in my no-makeup makeup look.

What I Like About the Saie Glowy Super Skin Lightweight Hydrobounce Serum Foundation

As someone who likes to have on as little makeup as possible, when I do wear foundation, I want it to be natural looking and feel weightless, and the Saie Glowy Super Skin Lightweight Hydrobounce Serum Foundation checks both of those boxes. I'm also quick to fall in love with any products that give me a radiant, dewy finish, which is exactly what this offers without making my skin look shiny or greasy. My skin type is normal to dry but after wearing makeup for a few hours, it can feel pretty parched. This formula helps keep my makeup feeling comfortable all day.

How to Use the Saie Glowy Super Skin Lightweight Hydrobounce Serum Foundation

In my makeup routine, after applying a facial sunscreen, I put on the Saie Glowy Super Skin Lightweight Hydrobounce Serum Foundation using a fluffy brush. I first apply one pump to the back of my hand, then use dabbing motions to blend the pigment into my skin.

The formula goes on smooth and melts seamlessly into my skin with little effort. I can make one pump work for my entire face if I'm going for sheer coverage but if I want it to be a bit fuller, I'll add one more. Then I'll layer my cream blush and bronzer on top of it and set it with some loose powder. This combination helps it last all day without separating or cracking.

What to Consider Before Trying the Saie Glowy Super Skin Lightweight Hydrobounce Serum Foundation

Priced at £34, this Saie foundation isn't the most expensive option on the market, but it still may be a bit higher than some people's budget. Keep in mind that a little bit goes a long way so one bottle is likely to last you a while, depending on how frequently you use it in your routine.
