Mary Phillips’ long-awaited foundation has arrived and it’s all about real skin.
Mary Phillips has officially expanded her brand, M.ph, with the launch of Le Skin Weightless Serum Foundation, a complexion product designed to deliver effortless, skin-like perfection. Long anticipated by beauty insiders and fans of Phillips’ signature underpainting technique, the foundation arrives as the brand’s most significant release to date and marks its entry into the foundation category with a clear point of view: enhancing the skin rather than masking it.
Le Skin is formulated as a lightweight serum foundation that offers buildable, medium coverage with a natural finish. Instead of sitting heavily on the skin, the formula is engineered to melt seamlessly into it, creating what the brand describes as a “second-skin” effect. The texture is intentionally breathable and fluid, allowing the complexion to look fresh, hydrated, and balanced rather than overly perfected. This approach reflects Phillips’ philosophy that great makeup should amplify natural beauty while remaining undetectable.
The foundation is available in 35 shades, spanning a broad range of skin tones from light to deep. This inclusive offering signals a thoughtful response to the modern beauty consumer, who expects both performance and representation. The shade range is designed to work harmoniously with the brand’s existing products, particularly the Underpainting Face Palette, reinforcing the technique-driven DNA that has defined M.ph since its launch.
What sets Le Skin apart is its skincare-forward formulation. The foundation contains 2% niacinamide, known for its ability to support the skin barrier, refine the look of pores, and improve overall tone, alongside hyaluronic acid, which helps attract and retain moisture for a plump, healthy appearance. Together, these ingredients reinforce the foundation’s goal of improving the look of skin over time while delivering immediate cosmetic benefits.
Mary Phillips’ influence is evident throughout the formulation. Known for her work on some of the most recognizable faces in pop culture, Phillips has built her reputation on skin that looks luminous, sculpted, and alive, never flat or heavy. Le Skin translates that professional artistry into an everyday product, allowing users to recreate a refined, editorial complexion without complex layering or advanced techniques. The foundation is meant to sit on top of the skin’s natural texture, not disguise it, making it especially appealing for those who favor a modern, realistic finish.
Early feedback from beauty editors and industry insiders points to the foundation’s blendability and comfort as standout qualities. Reviewers have noted its ability to even out tone and soften discoloration while maintaining a natural appearance throughout the day. The serum-like consistency reportedly works well on a variety of skin types, particularly those seeking hydration without shine or heaviness.
Le Skin Weightless Serum Foundation will officially launch on February 16th at Sephora, aligning with the brand’s premium yet accessible positioning. With this release, M.ph continues to establish itself as a technique-driven beauty brand rooted in artistry, intention, and skin realism. Rather than chasing trends, Le Skin feels like a considered addition to the complexion category, one that prioritizes feel, finish, and authenticity over excess coverage.
