Most full coverage foundations hide everything but can feel heavy, sit in lines and slide off by midday. Australis Fresh & Flawless Full Coverage Foundation is designed to give you that polished, camera-ready look while staying lightweight, comfortable and reliably in place from morning to night.

This formula is powered by a blend of advanced silicones, including cyclopentasiloxane and trimethylsiloxysilicate, which create a flexible, breathable film that grips to the skin. Hydrating agents like glycerin, butylene glycol and sodium hyaluronate help attract and hold moisture, while vitamins C and E provide antioxidant support against environmental stressors.

The texture is fluid yet creamy, spreading easily without streaks and setting to a soft matte finish that looks naturally polished rather than flat. Light-diffusing silica and talc help blur visible pores and uneven texture, giving a smooth-focus effect that holds up under bright lighting. Once set, the foundation feels lightweight, resists transfer and maintains coverage for extended wear.

Apply after your usual skincare and SPF, using fingers, a brush or a sponge depending on the level of coverage you want. The buildable formula allows you to start with a thin layer and add more only where you need it, reducing product build-up and improving longevity. Allow each layer to settle for a few seconds before applying the next.

Film-forming silicones lock pigments in place for reliable, long-lasting coverage.Soft-focus powders visibly diffuse pores, uneven texture and fine lines for a smoother-looking surface.Humectants and sodium hyaluronate support hydration balance to help prevent tightness and patchiness.Antioxidant vitamins C and E assist in defending against free-radical damage from daily environmental exposure.

For best results, pair this foundation with a smoothing primer from the Australis range to further refine texture and extend wear. Set with an Australis pressed or loose powder to customise the level of matte and help keep the finish locked in throughout the day.

A modern full coverage foundation that combines long-wear performance, a smooth-focus finish and skincare-inspired support in one step.

• Step 1. Begin with cleansed, moisturised skin and allow your skincare and SPF to fully absorb.
• Step 2. If desired, apply a smoothing or mattifying primer to areas where makeup typically fades or creases.
• Step 3. Dispense a small amount of foundation onto the back of your hand and pick up with fingers, brush or sponge.
• Step 4. Apply in thin layers from the centre of the face outwards, blending well around the nose, mouth and hairline.
• Step 5. Build extra coverage only where needed, allowing each layer to settle before adding more.
• Step 6. Set with a light dusting of powder on areas prone to shine to help lock the finish in place.

Pro Tips

• Use a damp sponge for a softer, more diffused finish, or a dense brush for fuller coverage with precision placement.
• Press foundation into the skin with dabbing motions rather than wiping to maintain coverage and minimise streaks.
• Allow the foundation to fully set before applying powder or bronzer to avoid patchiness.
• Blot excess shine with a tissue before powdering to reduce the risk of caking on oilier areas.
