Liquid(s) and cream(s) forms of foundation are a mixture of what two main components?

  1. Water and oil with pigments

  2. Alcohol and water with pigments

  3. Oil and silicone with pigments

  4. Water and silicone with pigments

The correct answer is: Water and oil with pigments

Both liquid and cream forms of foundation are typically a mixture of water and oil, with pigments added to create the desired shade. Water is used as the primary solvent to create the liquid consistency, while oil is added to create the moisturizing and nourishing properties of the foundation. Alcohol and silicone are not typically used in foundation as they can be drying or cause skin irritation.
