How No Foundation Foundation Works
This lightweight defensive solution is formulated with antioxidants, non-chemical sunscreen protection and specially-treated pigments, fused with light-diffusing mica.

These key sciences work together to create an absolutely flawless finish:
1. Alpha Lipoic Acid (Patented):
- Provides antioxidant protection from skin damaging free radicals
- Reduces wrinkles, fine lines, pore size, puffiness and discoloration
- Smooths skin texture
- Evens skin tone and imperfections
2. DMAE
- Tightens and lifts skin
- Reduces appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
To learn more about DMAE, watch this video:
3. Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide
These two ingredients offer non-chemical, SPF 30 broad spectrum UV protection. Unlike chemical sun protectants, which get absorbed into the skin, these non-chemical ingredients sit on top of skin acting as a natural barrier against sun rays as they deflect the rays away from the skin.
Applying No Foundation Foundation
Say “no” to ordinary, heavy foundations with No Foundation Foundation—advanced science; simple application.
Dr. Perricone recommends you apply No Foundation Foundation on top of other treatments and/or moisturizers. In gentle, circular motions, apply all over your face and reapply as often as necessary.

New York Magazine – “No Foundation Foundation ($50) is a true testament that one foundation can indeed be worn by different complexions. Our panel of testers ranged from pale white to dark-skinned black, with some olive and tan tones thrown in for good measure. Surprisingly, the foundation blended with everyone’s skin, and coverage was subtle and natural looking.” Read more at NYMag.com >>
Gives me a “natural but better look” – “I love that in one step I can apply my sunscreen and foundation…I have noticed an improvement in overall tone and appearance of my skin since I’ve been using it as well. So at this point, even though it’s very expensive I would repurchase.” Read more at Makeupalley.com >>
I love the SPF 30 – “…No streaking, almost impossible to detect, however it did even my skintone and just made my face look better. Not tight and drying, and not greasy and slick, it is the perfect ‘non foundation’ for hot summer days…” Read more at Makeupalley.com >>

I am 59 years old and I love my “products.” I have tried just about every new product that has come out over the years and once in a while I will discover something that becomes my “forever” product. I would love to sample No Foundation Foundation and see if this becomes another “forever” product for me.
Thank you.
have heard such great things about this foundation! would love to try it out before committing.
I have aging oily skin with some enlarged pores. I have been searching for a treatment foundation that 1) Has a natural finish that does not “stand” in my pores like mineral make-ups do, 2) Contains a broad spectrum SPF of at least 25, 3) Is actually beneficial to my skin, with antioxidants and other ingredients which have been scientifically-proven to improve fine lines, pore size, discoloration, skin tone and protect from free radicals. Needless to say, It has been a real challenge to find a foundation which addresses all those concerns. In the past, if I found a higher SPF, the foundation either looked chalky or heavy and cakey or was too greasy for my oily skin. I think a lot of mature women (I’m 59) who have oily skin feel like they are left out in the cold when it comes to treatment options and foundations for our skin type. There are plenty of greasy foundations out there supposedly for “mature” skin which end up making me look like I smeared Crisco all over my face! I am very interested in learning more about this product and also about what skin care options you have for the aging oily skin type.
I loved the sample size I got, and brought it on a trip and left it…I want to buy the full size one! It’s perfect!
can this product really do it all I am curios to see where can i try it instore?
I have extremely sensitive skin. My dermatologist said he’s never seen Eczema as bad as mine. Is this no foundation foundation gentle enough for super sensitive skin? I have a very hard time finding make up that doesn’t cause an eczema flair up.
[...] awesome giveaway includes a Citrus Facial wash, a Face Finishing Moisturizer, and your very own No Foundation Foundation by Perricone [...]
I am a 39 year-old woman who can see the big 40 looming in the distance. Yes, I have many imperfections to hide, but would prefer to correct these by improving the overall texture of my skin. I recently went to find this intriguing new product at three different places where Dr. Perricone products are sold, and they did not carry this item yet! I had to put in a special request! I am very anxious to finally look great naturally!!
I really would like to try it>
I am from Kuwait
where can I get it?
I’m tired of using foundation that leaves a pasty residue on my skin but I desperately need something to smooth my face and protect it from the sun. Could this be it???!!!
How did I get to be so dangerously close to being 50? Lately, my old foundations are looking too heavy; mask-like and dulling. I need a new solution, and the word “dewy” used in the above description, sounds like just what I need.
Hurtling toward middle age and suddenly, the freckles are looking a lot less cute than they did decades ago. I’m having a really hard time finding a foundation that looks natural and still evens out my skintone. This sounds like an exciting alternative to heavy cover-ups!
Everything about my skin texture and appearance made me ecstatic on my first day. I think this is the future of foundations…and what women really want. I don’t want to disguise my skin, I want to enhance it.
I just saw a add for this product in Soft Surroundings magazine and I am thinking about ordering it. I hope it is as good as they make it out to be.
Living in the desert, it is difficult to find an effective foundation – especially one with a decent, non-chemical SPF. I am curious to try this product and see if it holds up to the heat, sweat, and sun.
I am a fifty year old teacher that has spent 27 years teaching children and not caring for my skin. I have started to see the wobble gooble chin , sagging eyelids and wrinkles. My skin is blotchy and uneven. I could really use some TLC!
I have never worn makeup, but suddenly at 46 I don’t like what I see in the mirror. Maybe this will be the magic bullet! Help!
would love to sample your brilliant products
At a high-end cosmetics counter just the other day, I asked the sales associate what products she was wearing. “I really shouldn’t be revealing this,” she said, “but my foundation isn’t from this line at all. It’s a Perricone foundation that comes in one shade which fits all complexions, contains a sunscreen, and is reasonably priced, too.” She looked radiant,the picture of good health. and her skin tone was so even. I’m skeptical of the promise of many cosmetics,and because I have sensitivities I’m extra cautious about purchasing new products, but I’d welcome the opportunity to test this seemingly outstanding foundation.
I just finished reading the Eva Mendes article on Stylelist and i was intrigued by the No Foundation Foundation. I am an olive skinned Latina in her mid-30′s with some discoloration due to sun damage from growing up on a beach. I am also a licensed esthetician and always looking for the best products to recommend to my clients. The recommendations i’ve been reading look great and would love to try the No Foundation Foundation.
I first learned of this foundation from a shopping network. My gosh this is the best foundation that anyone would want. I love the texture and the feel after you fully apply it and you do not need a ton of it to look good. My face looks fresh and dewy and has a far more youthful appearance. Pretty good for a gal hitting the big 50 and looks 30ish! My skin has not looked so good in years.Yay! I get compliments and I owe it this great product. People look hard and see no signs of a foundation . I clue them in and tell them I am wearing no foundation foundation. Talk about clueless!
. Anyhow I am a tremendous user of this product and the compliments I receive speak for it all! I Would love to be a tester for such a fine product. Thanks so much!

I don’t like using foundation. I just sits on the top of my skin, and after a while I just look greasy and/or pasty, even at my age(over 50). I like to look natural, not made up, but I do realize I need to protect my skin from the elements. Okay, I admit I want to look “nice as well”.
I would live to become a product tester.I am still looking for the magic potion!
I don’t like wearing makeup that is why I invest hundreds each year on skincare products. I was advised by a horrible doctor to put cortizone on my face when I had bug bites and it has left my skin in what seems irrepairable damage, it’s really pink now and stripped away some pigment. I am hoping to use dr. Perricone’s products to help smooth out my face discoloration and the hyper pigmentation(sun spots) I’ve acquired. I use SPF as if it’s my religion now. I wish I was more strict about it in my earlier 20s.
I have been looking for a foundation that I really like for years now. This sounds like it just might be the answer. I look forward to trying it.
It is truly possible that a “foundation” in only one color could work for everyone? How wonderful that would be!
How great if we didn’t look like we’re wearing foundation. I’m 50, with imperfect coloring – wonder how it would work for me.
It’s summertime, and natural beauty should be taking hold. I get more freckles during the summertime, and I’d love for them to shine through. “No Foundation Foundation” sounds like the perfect foundation: light, moisturizing, anti-aging, and made to showcase what each woman has naturally.

I saw the Eva Mendes photos in Stylist and she commented using Perricone foundation. Her face always looks great and really smooth. I would like to really try No Foundation Foundation!

I am always looking for an easy to wear, quick to use foundation. I have lots of discoloration (age spots) that I am looking to cover and to keep from getting worse, so SPF is very important to me. I am very fair so protecting my skin is very important.
I can’t count all the different foundations I have tried over the years but I am so glad I finally found Dr. Perricone’s No Foundation Foundation. It was hard to believe all the hype that said that one color would work for most skin shades. I have a medium skin completion with no major blemishes to cover. I do have some skin discoloration caused from “too much sun exposure” and this foundation covers them quite well without making me look over made up. My husband is always telling me that he prefers me with no makeup … he was surprised when I told him that I was wearing foundation … of course it was Dr. Perricone’s No Foundation Foundation. I do notice a faint fragrance when I first apply the foundation but it disappears very quickly (small price to pay for such a fantastic foundation). Besides the natural look it give me, I love that it has SPF 30 broad spectrum UV protection as I spend many hours each day tending my garden. I am a 65+ year young woman and using this foundation will keep me looking as young as my husband thinks I am.
I borrowed this recently for a couple days from a gal pal of mine on a girls va-cay. My regular foundation was left sittin on my countertop at home and I didnt really feel happy about not having my FAVORITE foundation with me. However after one try of No foundation Foundation, I was hooked! My skin is fair with no noticable flaws or scars…however…the undereyes get darker every year! This product literally took them away. I was THRILLED. Then realizing I did not have to add a SPF product to the makeup routine (because its built in!) was another advantage. SPF 15 is just to low for us irish ladies. The 30 spectrum was perfect. I looked great AND I felt great knowing my face was protected from the sun. Thanks for another great product Perricone MD, (and Thanks Jamie for letting me not look run over on va-cay, lol).
This product contains top-notch ingredients. I have never tried a foundation “substitute,” and am very interested. This “No Foundation” contains excellent sunblock and other products that will be kind to my skin. With regular foundation, I occasionally need to give my skin a “rest” and do not wear it for a few days. This “rest” may not be necessary with this new product. I would truly appreciate the chance to try this product!
I am 60, look 45, i can only imagine how young i will look after using Dr. Perricone’s products!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What a blessing!!!!!!!!!!
I have seen your products on QVC and am on the waiting list for some facial creams…”liquid gold” one of them, along with the night serum. I so look forward to trying them out. Your representative is stunning. If I look half as good as she does, I will be in heaven. I missed the no makeup makeup. It seems too good to be true. Would love to try it for free.
THE BEST—–THOUGHT I HAD TRIED EVERYTHING BUT THIS IS THE BEST EVER—JUST PUT OVER MOISTURIZER—-ADD SOME BLUSH, GLOSS AND EYE MAKEUP AND YOU ARE READY TO GO—LOVE IT
I have used the same foundation for years it is one of the mineralowders and i find myself not being able to use it it is making my face oily and my skin tone continues to be uneven i saw this product on a tv show and thought i should give it a try i hope to win
I just saw this advertised and it looks wonderful! I am especially interested in it because it uses non-chemical sunscreens.
No Foundation Foundation is an exceptional product in that it truly is what it claims to be! I am a former makeup artist and this is treatment base is something I would love to try on any client no matter what age or ethnicity. I love how deeply hydrated and firm my skin feels wearing! Also as a woman of colour (mixed European-Native and African American ancestry)I appreciate how even the tone of my skin appears. SPF 30 and dewy glowing skin…can’t be beat!
I have always been curious about Dr. Perricone products everytime I go to Sephora. Since having my daughter I now have discoloration on my face and am constantly in pursuit of great products to help. I would love to try this product.
I am just learning to care for my skin and am shopping around; I am in my 50′s. Because I’m a wear and go type of gal, I’d like something simple and easy. This No Foundation sounds like it might be the real deal.
Please send me a sample!
would love to try this foundation, I read great reviews about it and would love to share the bliss
I like to use as little foundation as possible because it does tend to look and feel a bit like wearing a mask! “No Foundation Foundation” sounds like an ideal solution. It does exactly what I want it to do: corrects skin undertones while moisturizing at the same time. On top of that it reduces pore size and offers non-chemical UV protection. That’s perfect for me!
I love No Foundation Foundation. I have an extremely oily T-zone and blackheads on my nose. This is the only foundation that covers the blackheads and minimizes pore size. This foundation lasts all day, it doesn’t slide off my face like other foundations, it keeps the oil under control.
I got a sample of the No Foundation Foundation at Sephora and had to try it immediately.
I really like the formula, the lack of a heavy smell, the texture, and the fact that it reduces the look of my wrinkles and small lines. I am a 49 year old woman with wrinkles in my forehead and in my laugh lines. I also have some starting on my jaw line. I was interested in this because it is make-up and anti-aging all in one. I have used it a few times and find it a very nice product – it covers my flaws and yet also has SPF protection. It doesn’t have a heavy feel either, which is what I was worried about. I would love to try some of the other products too. I am sure they would work just as well.
This product is great if you use self tanner on your face. It blends and provides light coverage but is sheer enough to show your self-tanned color and BEST OF ALL, it contains SPF 30 SUN PROTECTION. Goodbye to mask-like foundation that causes your face to differ in skin tone than the rest of your body.
I have been using no foundation foundation for about a week now and I am extremely impressed! I have really oily skin and my face is NOT oily at the end of the day with this product! I wore it to the beach the other day and it was SO HOT! after returing home, the foundation was STILL ON!!!!!!! I couldn’t believe it. I LOVE this product!!!!!!
