Maybelline Fit Me Foundation Review

I have been using FITme shade 225 for the past year or so, I use it everyday with a light layer for going to work to iron out the imperfections then in the weekends i tend to apply it a bit thicker when going out to get optimum coverage, it feels nice and light on my skin and is easy to blend,, with it only be around the $25-$30 mark it is a nice cheap foundation that does what it says it will.

I used this for a while and whilst the shade was good I found it made my skin (naturally a little oily) really oily and I was having to use oil blotters to get rid of that shiny oily face look. Might be O.K for somebody with a non oily complexion.

I use this foundation everyday, I find that it blends well and gives a even coverage. However I feel as if I am using a significant amount of product for a thin layer. It is also quite an oily product.

loved it at first was great on my skin gave me great coverage but then after a while my skin rejected it and i stared to get really oily skin.

This is a great foundation, nice and soft on your face, and lasts approx 10hours. This looks dark when you first put on your face but once you work it in its not as dark as you think.

I love the way this foundation looks on my skin, looks dewy and radiant. Looks awesome in photos as well. Although it's called Fit Me, 120 is too dark on my skin and 110 is too light (and most places don't sell 110). The main downside is that throughout the day it does get patchy (I have normal skin) whenever I wear it I make sure I carry it in my handbag with a make up brush to touch up. Also, another down fall is that it's not very touch proof. I hesitate when hugging others and I'm in fear of half my face ending up on their shirt!

I found this foundation quite cakey to put on to be honest!! I struggled to get a nice finish from it, even with a matte primer. I found that it had quite an oily finish, even with powder over the top, and it didn't stay in place too impressively throughout the day. I have quite temperamental combination skin, and I didn't think it was very friendly towards it, which sucked!! I found it sat quite heavily on my skin too, and definitely contributed towards breakouts! I know that for some people this is a holy grail product, but for me it just wasn't really too great.

I got this as my first liquid foundation that actually matched me, and as i was only learning how to apply make up, I probably applied too much. But i would not buy this product again. It would be good if looking for a lightweight foundation, with light to medium coverage, but I found I was using a LOT of concealer with this product to cover spots and uneveness in my skintone after i had applied. I found it was a demi-matte mixture, which on my normal/oily skin, just made me look greasy after a couple of hours. It didnt stay put for long, and it made me break out :(

Lays beautifully on the skin, I just wish that they'd bring it out in a few more lighter shades as the lightest in the range being sold here in NZ is slightly too dark, I mix it with my other favourite to achieve a flawless base.

I only got this foundation as I was in a rush and couldn't find the one I normally use. It did its job, but don't think it was for my skin type I have quite oily skin and it felt my pores all clogged and made me break out! eek! wont be using this one again :(
