Oh foundation, how you make my skin actually look nice and even...
Foundation is a massive part of my makeup routine and finding the right one which is not overly expensive, yet doesn't look like I've shoveled cement on my face, can take an extremely long time.
I used to use Mac Studio Fix Fluid (which I have reviewed) but realised that it was actually way too pale for my skin tone and made me look quite ill, but I carried on using it up until it ran out due to the price.
After watching many a youtuber rave about a certain foundation (yes, you Lauren Curtis) I simply had to try this out!
I bought this from my local Boots and got colour matched by a lovely lady on the counter (who said my skin was beautiful, hmmm confidence grew a little!). I use the shade "C1/Ivory Rose".
Now, down to the technical bit...
Consistency - Thin! (runs down my hand when I pump it out...)
Texture - silky, smooth, soft
Wear time - I would say it lasts all day when I powder and finish off my base, without powder it will last about 4 hours until I get a shiny forehead
Application - very easy, it is so blendable, doesn't streak and is definitely easier to apply with a brush (I use a Real Techniques Expert Face Brush)
Overall - 9/10
I would recommend this to anyone who is eager to find a foundation that is amazing for the price!
One thing I have to say is this might not work for you if you have dry skin, it will tend to cling to dry patches around my hairline (I have combination skin).
What's everyone's fave foundation? Has anyone tried this?
