A hydrating foundation stick that builds from sheer to full, with the brush built to blend it in seamlessly. No streaks, no cakiness - just coverage that looks like skin.
Fragrance-Free · Dermatologist-tested · Non-irritating · Paraben-Free · Vegan · Cruelty-Free
WHAT'S IN THE SET?
The Foundation Stick — Buildable coverage that melts into skin, from sheer to full. Hydrating, so it won't cling to dry patches or settle into fine lines. Matched to your undertone and depth.
The Complexion Brush — Dense, ultra-soft vegan Taklon bristles built for cream formulas. Presses the formula into skin rather than dragging it across, so there's no streaking and no visible edges.
HOW THEY WORK TOGETHER
The stick puts coverage exactly where you want it. The brush presses it in, so it settles into the skin instead of sitting on top.
You end up using less product, which is the whole point: Coverage where you need it, and nothing that looks like makeup - just skin.
HOW TO APPLY
- Start with moisturized skin.
- Warm the stick on the back of your hand for a few seconds.
- Pick the product up with the brush and press it into the skin rather than swiping. You'll use less, and it blends in instead of sitting on top.
- Build only where you want more. For a blemish or a dark spot, press the product directly onto it.
If you have oily skin, we recommend setting it with a powder or spray for longer wear.

Frequently Asked Questions
Both work. The BASMA Complexion Brush gives you more control over where coverage sits and a cleaner finish with no visible edges, and the dense bristles press the formula into the skin. The BASMA-recommended technique is to warm the stick on the back of your hand, pick the product up with the brush, and press it in.
No. The BASMA Foundation Stick is hydrating rather than drying, so it stays flexible on the skin instead of setting into it - which is what causes most foundations to crease around the eyes, mouth, and nasolabial folds. It also won't cling to dry patches or emphasize texture.

I have been using my Basma Beauty products every single day since they arrived—including a 23-hour travel day—and I have truly never been happier with makeup. I’ve been searching for a brand with clean ingredients that feels like real skin ever since my go-to everyday makeup was discontinued, and Basma Beauty exceeded every expectation.
I purchased the entire collection as a birthday gift to myself, and it was the best decision I’ve ever made. I have dry, sensitive skin that’s prone to eczema, so finding makeup that works for me is not easy. After learning Basma’s story and professional expertise, I had high hopes, and they were more than exceeded. I even had a few blemishes when my order arrived and was amazed at how beautifully the foundation stick performed on irritated skin.
I wore the foundation stick, blush, and bronzer from 8 a.m. to 11 p.m. every day for over a week, and it looked just as good at night as when first applied. My makeup usually separates around my mouth, nose, and forehead, but that never happened; even after traveling for 23 hours. Beyond performance, this brand genuinely boosted my confidence and made my natural beauty feel radiant rather than covered.
This is the best makeup I’ve ever purchased and the best I’ve ever put on my skin. If you want makeup that looks and feels like skin and truly lasts, this is it. I’m completely in love with this brand and can’t wait to buy all my makeup from Basma Beauty.

I have dry-combo, textured skin, and with good skin prep: the finish is natural and skin-like! I don’t go heavy on application but it evens my skin out perfectly. Doesn’t cling to my dry patches or separate through the day. Love a good foundation stick! (Shade 027)

so creamy and glides on easily. I recommend the BASMA Foundation Stick — with the caveat that you match it properly and prep your skin right. It stands out especially for inclusivity, texture/feel, versatility, and overall finish. It’s not perfect for every skin type (especially ultra oily or ultra dry without prep)

i usually don't wear foundations because they're annoying to apply, but i've been trying this one as a quick addition to my daily makeup routine. it has good coverage but doesn't feel heavy, and i find that it also lasts all day without setting spray. the only downside is that i do have dry skin, so it has a cakey look after a couple hours, so it's probably best used on normal/oily skin types for a clean matte look!
also, packaging and formula are amazing and easy to use :)

I was honestly so surprised by how perfectly this foundation blended into my skin! It melts right in no streaks, no heaviness, just a smooth, natural finish that looks like my skin but better. The coverage is buildable and feels super lightweight, which makes it perfect for both everyday and glam looks.
It gives that healthy, radiant glow without turning oily I actually got compliments on how natural my skin looked!

I’m obsessed with this foundation!!! It’s literally a second skin, almost like wearing nothing.
Super lightweight, very soft with velvety texture and finish on the face. Also loved the perfect shade match🤌🏻 and how practical it’s the stick presentation.
The coverage it’s medium but buildable which it’s amazing, I’d definitely recommend it🩷

The coverage is great (medium to full) and buildable. The shade match is insane!! You get what you see online! Only thing that is missing for me is more of a blurred finish; the foundation hugs the skin a little too well so the finish is not as smooth as i like it to be.

Absolutely love this foundation! I’m so impressed by how seamlessly it blends into my skin. It has a creamy texture that gives a natural, radiant finish and feels so comfortable throughout the day. The coverage is definitely buildable, and it did an amazing job at hiding my acne scars and texture. I used the shade finder quiz on Basma’s website to find my shade and the recommendation was spot on!

This foundation stick blended into my skin so seamlessly! It doesn’t look cakey at all and the shade match is spot on. It literally looks like my skin, just smoother and more even, which is exactly what I look for in a base. It gives coverage without ever feeling like I’m wearing makeup.

So so good. I was worried it might be too dry on my skin but it sits beautifully all day long without turning oily or shiny. i have acne and red spots under my skin but this covers them up beautifully!

I seriously can’t say enough good things about this foundation! It feels weightless on my skin but still gives amazing coverage. These days I feel like recent foundation launches have been so heavy feeling! This one is the complete opposite. I start off with a hydrating primer, then blend it out with a dense foundation brush and it melts beautifully into my skin. It pairs really nicely with the new bronzer that was just released. It’s a match made in heaven. It also pairs great with my other products and comes together so nicely. I love a good stick foundation these days as they’re so easy to apply!

These sticks will have you looking creamy and your skin filter like! I love that these don’t cause any breakouts for me and is a very buildable formula!
The skin tone range for these are spot on! I have one that is my more winter shade and one for when I’m summery and tan! The darker one (005) I use as a gram
Contour as well and it’s a staple in my everyday makeup look now!
Definitely stand by this product!

This foundation stick is my go-to for quick coverage. The shade 038 matches my skin perfectly and gives a natural finish. It glides on smoothly and blends easily with a brush or sponge. I love that it’s buildable so I can go light or full coverage depending on the day. It doesn’t feel heavy or cakey. The stick format is so convenient for touch-ups on the go. My skin feels comfortable and looks even all day.

I really like this foundation stick! It goes on super smoothly and blends out so easily without looking cakey. The coverage is buildable, so I can keep it light for everyday or add a bit more when I want fuller coverage. It feels lightweight on the skin and looks very natural. Plus, it’s so convenient to carry in my bag for quick touch-ups during the day.
