FAQ
- Is this full-coverage foundation?
  
  No, this foundation provides light-to-medium coverage, which means your skin shines through. However, it is buildable and can be layered to reach medium coverage. If you’re looking for full coverage, try our Double Take Baked Full Coverage Foundation.
- Which baked foundation is right for me?
  
  Baked Balance-n-Brighten Color Correcting Foundation: light to medium coverage with a natural finish
  Baked Balance-n-Glow Illuminating Foundation: light to medium coverage with a satin finish
  Double Take Baked Full Coverage Foundation: full coverage with a matte finish
- How do I find the right shade?
  
  Take our Shade Finder quiz to help find the foundation shade closest to your skin tone — and see it on other Geller gals with skin like yours!
  Check out the “Ask Our Pros” program where our experts will pick the perfect shade for you within minutes via live chat (link above the shade dropdown).
  Our marbleized baked foundation contains multiple color-correcting shades, which will self adjust. Don’t worry, even if you pick one shade lighter or darker, the shade will still work for you.
- How do I apply the foundation?
  
  For LIGHT coverage, swirl a brush (the Retractable Airbrush Kabuki Brush works great!) onto the powder, then sweep it across your face. Blend outward and upward.
  For MEDIUM coverage, use a denser brush, or the Retractable Airbrush Kabuki Brush with the sleeve pulled almost all the way up for denser bristles, and press (don’t swipe) the powder onto your skin.
- Will this cake on my skin?
  
  Never. Our baked products aren’t cakey or chalky and won’t dry out your skin (unlike traditional pressed powders). This formula is made with mature skin in mind and won’t settle into fine lines and wrinkles; it will leave your skin looking fresh.
- What is your return policy?
  
  In honor of the holiday season, we have extended our return policy to 60 days for orders placed between 10/1/25-12/31/25 to give you more than enough time to try your favorite products.

Beautiful Foundation
Great coverage and not dry like most powders. May take a couple of orders to determine the shade I like. I have the Fair and have ordered the Porcelain. The fair is a little to deep if I apply a couple of layers, so I will try the Porcelain and I may be in between those shades and will use both.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your wonderful experience with our Baked Balance-n-Glow Illuminating Foundation, Pam! We're absolutely thrilled to hear that you've finally found your perfect foundation match - and at 74 years young, you deserve to feel confident and radiant in your skin! We completely understand how frustrating it can be when foundations seem to emphasize rather than enhance, especially when it comes to fine lines, wrinkles, and pores. That's exactly why we created this formula to provide beautiful coverage that smooths and illuminates while still looking natural and flattering. It makes our hearts so happy to know that our Baked Balance-n-Glow is giving you that flawless, perfected look you were searching for! Your feedback means the world to us, and we're so honored that after trying so many foundations, ours is the one that finally delivered the amazing results you deserve. Thank you for being such a wonderful part of the Laura Geller Beauty family!

Love this!
I bought this as I’d heard so much hype about it and just found it so hard to find a foundation that matched my skin colour and didn’t sink into my pores or feel like a mask. I have hyperpigmentation on my cheeks, chin and a bit inbetween my eyebrows and being very self conscious of it, have tried to find some way of covering/blending it so it isn’t so noticeable.
This does it all, sits beautifully on my face and the colour match is perfect. It doesn’t crease, sit in my pores and whilst it doesn’t completely cover my pigmentation, it just seems to blend nicely and my skin glows and looks radiant. I’m so pleased with it, I’ll continue to wear it and advise all my family and friends to buy it too!
