Our verdict

A flexible matte foundation that lets you set coverage and blend a custom shade drop by drop. Dry skin may find the matte finish flat, and the listing gives no size.

Overview

NYX Professional Makeup built this foundation around a dropper, so coverage is set by how many drops go onto a brush or sponge. It dries to a matte finish, and shades can be mixed to match skin tone.

Precise control over coverage and shade is the reason to use it, from a sheer wash to full matte cover. Size, skin type guidance and wear time are missing from the listing.

Who it's for

Makeup users who mix shades through the seasons or vary coverage day to day get the most from the dropper. Anyone wanting a single-pump, no-thought foundation may find it fussy.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Coverage adjusts drop by drop
  • Shades can be mixed
  • Works with brush or sponge
Cons
  • Size not listed
  • Matte finish can look flat on dry skin

Performance notes

Each drop adds a set amount of pigment, so coverage scales predictably from sheer to full as drops are added and layered. Mixing a lighter or darker shade into the same application shifts the tone without a second product.
