Why FOUNDATION can be a trap
FOUNDATION can suggest a base or something that supports a structure, making it tempting to place with BASE, HOLDER, REST, and STAND. In this solution, FOUNDATION belongs with BLUSH, HIGHLIGHTER, and POWDER in MAKEUP; BASE is the support-object answer. The category labels help separate the overlapping meanings.
