I bought this item from Bootslast week on a 3 for 2 offer at £9.99, and couldn’t wait to get home and try it! It’s safe to say though that I was highly disappointed!
The bottle:
Swatch:
Verdict:
Firstly the colour I picked up (w4)was horrendous, I usually get a yellow toned foundation to counteract the redness in my skin which usually works wonderfully! This one however was the strongest yellow in a foundation I have ever seen, it made me look like I was suffering with kidney problems!
The product itself is a very fine, watery consistency which I’m not too keen on, when applying to my face with a real techniques buffing brush I found it was easy to blend, but made my face not only extrmeley patchy but it also stuck to the dry patches under my eyes and around my nose area. As well as this it made my small pores appear much larger than they are, which I never usually have a problem with! I honestly wanted to remove the whole entire product from my face and start again with my trusty Match Perfection foundation, but seeing as I had college in less than 20 minutes I didn’t have time. After powdering my face I moved onto my contour and blush, these products usually glide onto my face no problem, but with this foundation I felt as though they weren’t sitting right and again made my pores look even larger again!
After returning from college 6 hours later I checked my face in my mirror to not only realise that it had oxidised throughout the day and made my face appear rather orange, but also to find a patchy, oily mess! My t zone was extremely oily and most of the product had disappeared and the rest of my face was dry and scaly!
The one good point I do have about this foundation is that I loved the glow it gave my skin when I first applied it and maybe if unlike me you have a normal skin type then it may work well for you.
Have you tried this foundation,
what are your thoughts on it?
