Best OverallDior Backstage Face & Body FoundationPHOTO: People / Jessica Juliao$43 at SephoraView on Dior.comView on Harrods.comStar QualitiesSmooth application and feels extremely lightweightNo creases or smudges and didn’t transferMore than 40 shades in warm, cool, and neutral undertonesRed FlagsNot enough shades for darker skin tonesDesigner doesn’t always guarantee high quality, but in the case of Dior’s Backstage Face & Body Foundation, paying a little more does get you a better value. Earning a flawless 5-star rating in every single test, this body makeup provided full coverage that felt airy on the skin and stayed locked in place.It’s smooth and extremely lightweight and covered our arm, veins, and everything in between. We love that it’savailable in so many shades(more than 40!), and provides full coverage. It comes in neutral, warm, and cool undertones to suit mostskin types. We just wish there were more options for darker skin tones. Our testing feedback shows that this formula is an excellent option for women withmature-skinseeking to smooth spider veins and age spots with a lightweight feel and natural look.During the resistance tests, this body makeup didn’t transfer any product to a white towel when rubbed against it, and didn’t come off even when sprayed with water. It felt like we were wearing a powder, butthere was no transfer. We were very impressed that it completely stayed in place with no creases or smudges. And with regards to the water test, water beaded up on the product as suspected, but everything stayed in place with no streaking, running, or transfer.Overall, we think this is the ideal body makeup because a little goes a long way, and as a medium coverage foundation, you can apply it lightly or build it up for a fuller coverage look. Though the price is higher than others on our list, this makeup is a good value for what you’re paying.How It’s Held UpAfter months of testing, we’re still loving the tone-evening, yet natural results that this body foundation delivers. We did need to be extra vigilant about moisturizing well before applying the makeup to ensure that it didn’t enhance our dry spots during cooler months. We also learned that the amount of layers we applied granted us longer wear time — for example, one layer gave us about 4-5 hours of wear before fading, and two layers resulted in 7 hours. We still think it’s worth the hype (and price) given its natural results and high performance in real life.Coverage:Medium, buildable |Formula: Liquid |Skin Type:Normal, dry, combination, oily |Shades: 40 |Size: 1.6 oz. / 50 mLPHOTO: People / Joy KimPHOTO: People / Joy Kim

We loved thesuper lightweight, breathable feel, and noticed very little transfer during our tests. “It offers a glowing natural skin like finish that can also be set with powder depending on what type of finish you are looking to create,” says Blair.“As a professional makeup artist that has worked on countless bodies backstage for well over 20 years — one of the most versatile products I carry with me is MAC Studio Radiance Face & Body Foundation,” Blair says. “It’s a water-based product that contains various types of silicones which create excellent skin adhesion as well as long wear. It also is extremely buildable — upon initial application, it provides a veil of coverage, however the more layers you apply, the [more opaque] the coverage becomes.”Though advertised as waterproof, when sprayed with water, it took on a somewhat greasy consistency (so maybe just don’t wear this one to the beach!). However, once it dried, this body makeup went back to its original consistency and didn’t run at all. We love the diverse shade range for a variety of skin tones, we only wish there was slightly more opacity. Youcanbuild this one, it just might take a few extra layers.How It’s Held UpThis one was a real winner throughout all of the months (and seasons) that we tested it. We changed up its utility as the weather turned cool and our skin naturally became drier, where we instead used it more as a face and neck foundation rather than a body product. Still, it continued to make our skin look natural while feeling lightweight, we just didn’t need the extra layers of product when we had on longer sleeves and pants. What we did grow to love was its travel-convenient packaging.Coverage: Sheer |Formula: Liquid |SkinTypes: All skin types |Shades: 30 |Size: 1.7 oz.People / Tamara Staples

The ultra-pigmented formula covered everything, but the shade range could be a little more varied and offer more skin tones. During our resistance tests, this body makeupdid not transferonto the towel or come off when sprayed with water. Considering its durability, smooth finish, wide availability, and budget-friendly price, we think this is a great product.
How It’s Held UpThis concealer continued to work its magic throughout the changing of the seasons and in several climates, from cooler weather to humidity. The thing that keeps us coming back (besides its amiable price tag) is the color-correcting and tone-evening formula inside. We love to see our hyperpigmentation and spots of redness fade away with a quick blend of this product, leaving our skin looking more flawless than ever. It’s become one of our staples, and its budget-friendly price allows it to be a repeat buy for us.

And if you’re worried about something full-coverage drying out your skin, it’s actually packed with moisturizing ingredients to nourish your complexion while it sits.We loved the feel of this product, which wasn’t greasy, heavy, sticky, or chalky. We were able to run a hand across it with ease. We found a perfect shade match with this product and were able to build and blend the makeup up to full coverage. We could still see a faint trace of veins and scars, but found the makeup blended seamlessly onto our arm.We noticed little to no transfer when we brushed against the white towel, but when we heavily wiped our arm there was some transfer. However, when you use this makeup in tandem with theDermablend Setting Powder, it should set more thoroughly and have less risk of transfer, making this duo ideal formature skin, covering age spots on the arms and hands seamlessly.The makeup did not run at allwhen we spritzed it during the water test. With a near perfect score, good coverage, and durability, this product is a good pick for covering any unwanted marks.How It’s Held UpWe continued to use this liquid over time for masking things like scars and veins, and we loved it for that function. But over time, we started to feel as if the formula were a bit drying to our skin. The finish is pretty matte, so we tried to keep the areas we applied it small in order to not attract too much attention to it and make the area still look like skin.

Best Long LastingEstée Lauder Foundation For Face and Body SPF 15PHOTO: People / Jessica Juliao$55$52 at Amazon$72$50 at Walmart$55 at UltaStar QualitiesLong-lasting thanks to superior water resistanceFelt lightweight and dried to a matte finishIngredients that provide skincare benefitsRed FlagsShade range isn’t very diverseFor a body makeup that will cover spider veins on the arms, chest, legs, and face and last all day, look no further than Estée Lauder’s camouflage foundation. Made with a blend of aloe leaf extract, soybean oil, and linoleic acid (known to help inflammation), this non-acnegenic (means it won’t clog pores and cause acne) makeup alsoprovides some of the nourishment of skincare products.We found that this body foundation was pretty lightweight and dried to a matte finish when brushed on the skin. In one pass, it covered our arm tattoo. This product thoroughly passed our resistance tests, proving its durability against contact with materials like the white towel and water via our spray bottle. We were impressed with this product’s water resistance. Despite soaking our arm, the body foundation did not budge. So you can be assured that the waterproof,SPF-infused formulawill wear well during a day at the beach or at an outdoor wedding where you work up a sweat on the dance floor.The only caution is that while the product comes in 15 shades, there aren’t many options for darker skin tones. We had a hard time finding a shade that matched our warm undertone. We also found it was best to apply this product using a dense brush since the it is rather thick.How It’s Held UpWe used this product on bruises or discolored marks that we had on our skin for the months that we tested it, and it certainly exceeded in masking these areas thanks to its highly-pigmented formula. However, we do think that it’s a little too drying in any time of year — dry skin or not. If you want a long-lasting formula, this is certainly a great contender, but you’ll want to lather up with some moisturizer before applying to make this product look and feel natural.Coverage: Full |Formula: Liquid |SkinType: All skin types |Shades: 15 |Size: 1 oz.People / Tamara Staples

Best for Age SpotsFenty Beauty Body Luminizing TintPHOTO: People / Jessica Juliao$52 at Sephora$37$23 at Walmart$52 at UltaStar QualitiesLightweight and has a velvety feel on the skinStayed in place and during the water and wipe testsEvens out skin tone and blends easilyRed FlagsDidn’t fully cover a tattooWhile Rihanna’s glow might come from the radiance of supreme talent and charisma (and maybe a little Fenty foundation), we can try to replicate it with this Fenty Body Sauce Luminizing Tint. It felt smooth, lightweight, and velvety on our skin.Made with a blend of babassu oil and vitamin E,this formula also acts as a form of skincare— helping with inflammation, surface wounds, and certain skin conditions. The coverage is sheer, so it didn’t entirely cover our tattoo, but it blended beautifully, evened our skin tone, and covered our arm in a fine shimmery glow. And it’s important to note the formula is buildable.So if there are age spots or spider veins that don’t feel like they have enough coverage on the first pass, wait for your first layer of makeup to dry, then slowly layer and blend in more coverage using akabuki brushuntil you achieve your desired look.This makeup passed our resistance tests with little effort, locking into place without smudging or wiping away. It transferred very little to the towel and stayed on our skin. We think it would come in handy for those who sweat a lot, and it’s easy to apply. It doesn’t have a huge shade range, and the price is high, but it delivers on the promise of smooth glowing skin.How It’s Held UpFor the warmer parts of the year, this skin tint was a dream — gliding onto our skin like butter and giving us a luminous glow even after it had dried down.

While Rihanna’s glow might come from the radiance of supreme talent and charisma (and maybe a little Fenty foundation), we can try to replicate it with this Fenty Body Sauce Luminizing Tint. It felt smooth, lightweight, and velvety on our skin.
Made with a blend of babassu oil and vitamin E,this formula also acts as a form of skincare— helping with inflammation, surface wounds, and certain skin conditions. The coverage is sheer, so it didn’t entirely cover our tattoo, but it blended beautifully, evened our skin tone, and covered our arm in a fine shimmery glow. And it’s important to note the formula is buildable.
So if there are age spots or spider veins that don’t feel like they have enough coverage on the first pass, wait for your first layer of makeup to dry, then slowly layer and blend in more coverage using akabuki brushuntil you achieve your desired look.
This makeup passed our resistance tests with little effort, locking into place without smudging or wiping away. It transferred very little to the towel and stayed on our skin. We think it would come in handy for those who sweat a lot, and it’s easy to apply. It doesn’t have a huge shade range, and the price is high, but it delivers on the promise of smooth glowing skin.
How It’s Held UpFor the warmer parts of the year, this skin tint was a dream — gliding onto our skin like butter and giving us a luminous glow even after it had dried down. However, when the weather began to cool and our skin naturally got drier, it became harder to apply this tint and make it look natural. It required a bit of body lotion before application in order to blend as smoothly as it did in the warmer months, and this eventually made us decide that we just don’t love it for winter. But when summer comes around, you know this is our go-to.

It’sperfect for touching up small areas(like the “concealer” name suggests) or spot-treating throughout the day. Like the previous Dermablend product, you can enjoy up to 16 hours of transfer-resistant staying power so long as it’s set with the brand’s setting powder. On top of its portability and longevity, the overall application is incredibly smooth. We also noticed how creamy the application is and how lightweight it feels.We did struggle with finding a seamless shade match, and of the existing 10 shades, there is only one that errs on the darker end of the skin tone spectrum. However, as far as coverage, the ultra-pigmented formula did completely veil arm tattoos.During the transfer test, this body makeup held up as well, staying in place and looking just as great after exposure to water. It alsodidn’t transferto the towel at all. Overall, this is a good product for travel needs because of its small size. The cream stick makes iteasy to apply targeted coverageto age spots on the neck and chest or c-section scarring. To build out seamless, impactful coverage, allow each layer to dry before adding more product, and apply powder after you reach your desired coverage to lock in the formula.How It’s Held UpWe think it’s worth calling out that this foundation stick, though great at covering dark spots, isn’t the best when it comes to hydration. It began to feel drying and came off a little too matte to look like real skin, but we did love to get creative and use it as concealer when we had bad under-eye bags. If you want to conceal certain spots on your skin, this one will certainly do the trick — just make sure you’re setting it with powder afterwards, or it risks fading.Coverage:Full |Formula: Cream stick |SkinType: All skin types |Shades: 10 |Size: 0.42 oz.PHOTO: People / Tamara StaplesPHOTO: People / Tamara Staples

Body makeup, like face makeup, can have a totally different appearance depending on how much product you use. “Coverage relates to the amount of light or skin you can see through the product. Think about how nylons look on the legs versus tights,” says Blair. If you’re looking for a complete coverup of imperfections such as tattoos, scars, veins, or acne, in addition to mature skin concerns like spider veins, you’ll want a full coverage formula that’s buildable.
Our picks fromDermablend,Estée Lauder,Black Opal, andDiorwill provide ample coverage for unwanted marks. For a lighter option that evens out skin tone and smooths age spots without calling attention to fine lines, you’ll need a formula that provides buildable and blendable coverage that won’t transfer when applied to the arms, neck, décolleté, and hands. Winners fromFenty,MAC, andLux Unfilteredwould be a better choice for this.
When looking at any makeup products you should keep in mind how the ingredients will interact with your skin. If you’re looking for body makeup to cover up acne, then products with oils might perpetuate the issue. Comparatively, to cover skin conditions like psoriasis, you want to make sure there aren’t any ingredients that will further irritate the skin or cause flare ups.
Not unlike the face, when you apply body makeup, you want it to look natural and blend well with your skin tone. “When you are putting together an entire look, the face, shoulders, decolletage, arms, and legs should all have a similar texture,” says Blair. She reflects on the ’90s trend of a “flawless matte face up against exposed skin with a natural skin finish” and how it gave an appearance of “a floating head or mismatched body parts.”
In order to create a seamless finish, you have to be consistent with shades and texture. In terms of shades, Blair says, “When it comes to shade matching, often our bodies are a bit darker than our face.” But in order to create a balanced tone, she suggests mixing some of the body foundation in with your facial makeup to bring some additional color to your face (which might not see as much sun as your legs!).
The placement of the makeup might also influence which kind you get. If you’re looking for a coverall that can generally smooth out skin tone and texture, it might be best to use a lightweight body makeup that can be easily dispersed across different areas of the body like legs, arms, elbows, and the face. Whereas with specific problem areas, a thicker body makeup might provide better coverage and be more easily applied (rather than all over).
If you’re planning to wear your body makeup during strenuous outdoor activities, or at the pool, you’ll want to look for a product that is water-resistant or waterproof so it doesn’t run or transfer when wet. Our best overall,Dior’s Backstage Face and Body Foundation, passed our water tests with flying colors and stayed in place when wet.
The last thing you want your body makeup to do is rub off on your clothes or furniture. Look for products that are transfer-resistant, meaning when the product is dry, it stays intact and won’t come off. We tested all of our recommendations for transfer resistance and found thatEstée Lauder’s Double Wear Maximum Coverwas long-lasting, dried to a matte finish, and was one of the most transfer-resistant body makeup products we tested.
Much the way foundation is used to give your face an even skin tone, body makeup offers the same effect on other parts of your body. It’s often used to mask scars, tattoos, and veins on your neck, chest, arms, and legs — any area that is exposed. But it can also be applied so that your face, arms, and legs all have the same skin tone.
Just like you would prep your face before applying makeup, you need to do the same for your body. “Exfoliating and moisturizing your skin is going to help with the evenness of application of your makeup and longevity of wear,” says Blair. So be sure to exfoliate while you’re in the shower, and then moisturize the areas you’ll be applying the product.
Comparatively, for thicker and more full coverage products, you can also use a large fluffy brush in circular motions to cover larger areas, Blair says. And just like your facial skin, setting with powder can help makeup stay on your body throughout the day.
Generally, the most popular spots to apply body makeup are the arms, legs, and collarbone (basically the most commonly exposed skin). A lot of people use body makeup to cover up old scars and tattoos, as well as prominent veins — but it can also be applied to even out one’s skin tone. Sheer products likeFenty’s Body SauceandLux Unfiltered Blurring Body Glowcan also create a little shine for your body. Trickier areas are your back (in which case you might phone a friend for assistance) and underarms (which should be avoided if possible due to streakiness). Also, make sure to always apply body makeup before other products, likeyour favorite perfume, to avoid uneven coverage.
While technically you can use body makeup on your face, it is often a bit heavier than foundation that is made specifically for the skin on your face. There are body makeup products, however, that are formulated to be used on the face and the body. These products, likeDior Face and Body Foundation,BLK/OPL Face + Body Concealer,Estée Lauder Foundation for Face and Body, andMAC Face and Body Sheer Foundation, are lighter and easier to apply than makeup made for the body only.
To find the best body makeup, we tested 18 of the most popular brands. Considering the feel, coverage, and resistance to transfer and water, we narrowed the list to the best eight body makeup products to give your skin a smooth appearance.
