Last year, I wrote a review of the Jones Road Just Enough Tinted Moisturiser. If you’ve read it, then you’ll know that I’m a big fan of this product. In fact, I ditched foundation altogether in favour of this “skin filter in a bottle”. So, when an email landed in my inbox a few weeks ago, telling me that Jones Road had a new base product coming out in the form of a lightweight foundation stick, I made it my mission to get my hands on a sample straight away. Enter the Your Skin Foundation Stick.
As the name suggests, like many of the brand’s products, this foundation formula is designed to create a “your skin, but better” effect. Housed in a handy stick formula that you can easily apply on the go, it sounded like the perfect product for a busy person like myself, who favours a “no makeup” makeup look and efficacious products that actually work when I’m out and about. So, did it live up to my already high expectations? Keep on scrolling to find out…

The Formula
Does anyone else find foundation sticks quite drying? As much as I love the format, whenever I’ve tested them in the past, they’ve always clung to dry patches of skin. So, when I tested this foundation on the back of my hand, I practically squealed with excitement. It’s hard to put into words how creamy it feels, but I’m going to give it my best shot.
The formula is infused with ceramides, squalane, sodium hyaluronate and shea butter, so you can already imagine how hydrating it is. As a beauty editor, I love a skincare makeup hybrid. That being said, as someone with combination skin, I was a little skeptical about how oily it could get throughout the day, or whether these hydrating ingredients could actually feel quite heavy, but this formula is surprisingly lightweight. In fact, I’d go as far as to say that it feels like wearing nothing at all.
The Application
Thanks to its velvety formula, this foundation glides on like butter (not that I’ve ever applied butter to my skin, but you get the gist). One swipe, and suddenly, blemishes, redness and pores take on a blurred effect, creating an even, radiant base that makes me feel like my most confident self. Whether you prefer a foundation brush or your fingers, swipe the stick onto the skin and blend as you go.
My Verdict
Is it obvious yet that I’ve fallen in love with another Jones Road base product? This little stick has quickly replaced all of my tinted moisturisers, skin tints and foundations, and I can’t see myself reaching for anything else this season. The creamy formula, the ease of application, the naturally radiant finish, the wide range of shades and undertones (I wear shade Beige, btw)…I have no notes. As someone who is here, there and everywhere this summer, this launch couldn’t have come at a more perfect time. I recommend adding this foundation stick to your makeup bag ASAP.
