$$$ True Comfort Foundation SPF 15 ($35.50) is marvelous in every respect except for sun protection—an omission that prevents it from earning a Paula's Pick rating. Without titanium dioxide, zinc oxide, or avobenzone listed as active ingredients, you need to pair this makeup with another sunscreen that contains UVA-protecting ingredients. If you have normal to dry skin and don't mind the aforementioned pairing, you will be pleased with this foundation's lightweight yet creamy texture, its superb blendability, and its satin finish, which lends a radiant glow to skin. Coverage goes from light to medium and nine of the ten shades are remarkably neutral, though there are no options for darker skin. Only Tender Gold stands out as being a bit too peach, but it may be an option for some medium tones. Clarins has been doing a commendable job with each successive foundation they've launched. If they'd start including reliable sunscreens for UVA protection, they would be that much closer to the best of the best.
