You may say you don't believe in soulmates now, but that's only because you haven't found the right foundation yet. Someday, when the stars align, you'll stumble upon the perfect formula — one that magically eradicates your pores and makes you glow like never before — and you'll know it was an act of destiny after all. Don't think so? These 43 best foundations of all time are guaranteed to change your mind.

Some are deliciously dewy; others pleasantly mattifying. Some act as a shield against environmental woes; others turn their energy inward, pumping skin with healthy vitamins.

There are a handful of standouts that everyone seems to know and love.
