Mattifying foundations ranking – the best mattifying foundations of 2026

Mattifying foundations are cosmetics for everyday make-up designed especially for people with oily, combination and problematic skin. Most often, they contain ingredients that absorb excess sebum, thanks to which the skin does not shine and is velvety smooth, as if covered with silky powder, but without the mask effect. Good mattifying foundations, in addition to their opaque properties, should also care for the skin of the face and not weigh it down. If you're wondering which mattifying foundation to choose, check out our ranking of the five best cosmetics with this effect.

Our testers pointed out that the foundation fantastically covers all imperfections 😍, and at the same time is almost invisible. It does not clog pores, does not create a mask effect, provides a velvety powdery finish, and also nourishes the skin 👏.

The testers also praised the durability of the cosmetic, its light texture, which makes the application comfortable and trouble-free, and the fact that the foundation blends perfectly into the skin without creating streaks or stains 👍.

The mineral mattifying fluid by Pharmaceris F has won the sympathy of our testers thanks to its very good coverage and the presence of SPF 30 😎. The foundation has a formula with mineral pigments, which makes the skin pleasantly smooth and moisturized 😍. Testers with oily skin and visible pores were very satisfied with the use of the cosmetic, as it normalizes the secretion of sebum, so that the skin does not shine and imperfections actually become less visible 👏. Unfortunately, most testers found that the fluid is not durable and disappears after just a few hours, and its application is hindered by its rather thick consistency. Matt mattifying fluid - Mineral Correction mattifying fluid is available in only 3 shades 🤷‍♀️.

The covering foundation of the Polish brand Semilac is designed for all skin types, but its properties will certainly be most appreciated by people with oily, problematic and combination skin. The foundation provides very good coverage with a matte, powdery finish, which allows you to cover up many imperfections and prevent the skin from shining 👍. The testers confirmed this effect and additionally drew attention to the caring properties of the cosmetic. The foundation contains extract from the bark of the African tree 🌳 Enanthia Chlorantha, which regulates the work of sebaceous glands, and apple 🍎 stem cells, which regenerate and nourish the skin. Its durability, on the other hand, was rated by the testers at an average level. There have also been opinions that the fluid dries out the skin and is not easy to get. Semilac foundation is available in 5 shades 👏.

Dr Irena Eris has created a foundation dedicated to oily, combination and problematic skin, designed to hide all its imperfections. Thanks to its active ingredients, the foundation is supposed to inhibit excessive sebum secretion, prevent shine and maintain proper skin hydration 👍. However, our testers were not satisfied with the mattifying effect and also found that the cosmetic slightly dries out the skin. Its application, on the other hand, is easy thanks to its liquid consistency and convenient tube 👏. Some of the testers also pointed out that the foundation does not work well with other make-up cosmetics such as foundation base or powder. The Mattifying Liquid Powder foundation is available in as many as 6 shades. Its price, unfortunately, is high 💰.

In addition to its opaque properties, the Aqua Matt mattifying foundation is also designed to intensively moisturize the skin of the face 💧. Our testers admitted that the foundation does moisturize, but it doesn't provide full coverage, and after all, that's its main task. Unfortunately, the durability of the cosmetic is also not satisfactory, and some testers noticed that after application, the foundation darkens on the face. Its undoubted advantage is easy application thanks to its light consistency and the use of a dosing pump 🧴. The price of the foundation is very favorable 👍 and there are 4 shades to choose from. The cosmetic contains parabens and substances with potentially allergenic substances, which is the main reason why it was ranked last in the ranking.
