Essential Foundation

Rachel

The vegan foundation boasts a luxurious, organic formula that offers light to medium coverage. It has a soft satin finish that endures and gives a glow after it has settled. Incorporating certified organic ingredients and responsibly sourced minerals, the formula is ideal for combination and oily skin types.

With 14 global shades available and no dimethicone, it feels weightless on the skin.

To underscore a commitment to sustainability, the foundation is packaged in recyclable glass and PFAS-tested plastics.

SAPPHO's dedication to quality and safety shines through in rigorous testing procedures. While every single lot cannot be tested at this time due to cost constraints, thorough testing has been conducted on select lots with reassuring results.

Consistency is maintained by sourcing ingredients from trusted suppliers for every batch. If a supplier change is necessary, testing will be conducted to ensure quality. As resources allow, prioritizing testing for all stages of production will continue to ensure the highest standards.

Because what is put on the body can go into the bloodstream, this EU certified, award-winning organic foundation has been formulated with low heavy metal minerals and natural ingredients. It is carefully designed to maximize the effects of its phytonutrients, vitamins, and antioxidants on the skin, unlocking the potential for powerful environmental defense while providing light to medium coverage.

Essential Foundation is a breathable formula that keeps the skin feeling clean while offering moisture and silky coverage that is buildable and feels weightless. Free of regular coconut oil, moisturizing and soothing with organic aloe vera juice, jojoba oil, and shea butter, it is suitable for all skin types and a favorite for those with oily skin or problematic breakouts, especially if looking for a foundation without dimethicone or silicone.
