Foundation coverage without the heavy, flat finish
Finding a foundation that gives you enough coverage without looking thick, cakey or overly matte can be difficult, particularly when shine, visible pores or uneven texture are part of the concern.
Jane Iredale Beyond Matte™ Liquid Foundation is a lightweight 3-in-1 primer, concealer and foundation designed to create smoother, more even-looking skin with buildable, long-wearing coverage.
The finish is naturally polished rather than mask-like, giving you the flexibility to keep coverage lighter where you want it and build it in the areas that need more.
Why we like it at Touch & Glow
At Touch & Glow, we work with skin every day. We know that foundation is rarely just about “covering up” - the way a formula sits across texture, pores, shine and changing skin can make a huge difference to how comfortable and confident you feel wearing it.
Beyond Matte™ is a particularly useful option for those who want:
- buildable medium-to-full coverage
- a smoother-looking complexion
- help reducing the appearance of excess shine
- a more refined look across visible pores
- long-wearing coverage without a heavy feel
- one product that can work as primer, foundation and targeted concealer
Its plant-based formula includes celery seed and linseed extracts, alongside tamarind extract and jojoba seed oil. The official formula and product positioning support its focus on smoother-looking skin, shine control and skin comfort.
A 3-in-1 approach to your base
Use a light layer for an even, natural-looking base, build coverage where needed, or apply a little extra to specific areas in place of a separate concealer.
That makes Beyond Matte™ a strong choice if you prefer a streamlined makeup routine but still want control over your level of coverage.
Who is it best suited to?
We particularly recommend considering Beyond Matte™ if you:
- prefer liquid foundation but dislike a heavy finish
- want coverage that can be built gradually
- notice shine developing throughout the day
- want to soften the appearance of pores or uneven texture
- prefer a natural-looking finish over an intensely flat matte look
- want a foundation that can double as targeted concealer
How to use
Apply a small amount to the centre of the face and blend outwards using fingers or your preferred foundation brush.
Start with a light layer and build only where more coverage is needed. For blemishes, redness or areas of uneven tone, press a small additional amount onto the area rather than applying a heavier layer across the whole face.
