I brought two bottles on sale as my friend had done my make up with it once and it looked great! It is very yellow toned and not the best for oily skin. I try to team it up with a mineral powder to leave a more matte rather then Dewey ( and rather oily ) finish. I probably won't go for a round three of fit me . I don't find it long lasting enough for me while I'm working and can be a difficult going out product because of how oily it is ... You start dancing and it slips right off!

Tips: Definitely cover with a mineral powder and also use a foundation brush!
I use this foundation for my everyday use. It is pretty good, nice and cheap as opposed to a MAC foundation. It is very dewy so over winter I got away without putting powder on top of the foundation. But now in summer i have to put on a powder on top. To me it isn't very light cause i use concealer and just apply this over my larger areas.
Tips: Darker colours are not available in New Zealand. I use Fit Me 350 and i have to order it online from UK.
When I began using this foundation I was very undecided about whether I liked it or not. After using it for a while and also trying out other foundations I decided it really wasn't for me. The colour selection is not the best and all the shades seem to be dark and slightly orange/yellow toned. I tended to find that about half way through the day it would oxidise leaving my face a horrible orange colour. The coverage is very light and sheer so if your looking for high coverage this is not for you. If you have oily skin STAY AWAY as it will not do you any justice!!!
The Fit Me foundation was the first liquid foundation I ever used, and I have found that it was a great staring point in my 'foundation life'. To this day, i still use it, and I love the coverage and pigment of the formula. Its very easy to apply, medium to full coverage depending on the amount you use and it is long lasting. I bought this in summer when I was a bit tan, and found that through the winter, the colour I bought was too dark, however the blend ability and easy application make this a great foundation to be used all year round.
Tips: Buy a foundation one shade lighter than your actual skin tone, so that you can use it all year round, and darken it with bronzer if needed:)
I was crazy about it the first time i try. It was so nice, light coverage but definitely cover/blur imperfection and still natural looking. Then i found out it beaked me out, oxidize badly which makes me pink or sometimes ghost white. I still liked it though so i thought i bought wrong color. Bought another 2 bottles. Finally decide its not for me.
Tips: May be too greasy in summer.
This foundation is good if your on a budget. It's good coverage and lasts a while if you use sparingly.
The only downside of the Fit Me range is they are not really suitable for oily skin, if your working by your first break it looks like you've dunked your face in a bowl of water.
Another downside for me is all of the shades are all yellow-toned. So not really suitable for anyone with a lot of red in their skin.
Tips: This product is best applied with a natural hair foundation brush, I found that a sponge soaked up all the foundation before it got to my skin, and using my hands means I used a lot more that I needed to and often came out patchy.
A translucent powder works wonders with this foundation. Keeps all oily and shine at bay.
I am undecided about this foundation and have been considering buying it again to try. I want to say straight off, if you have oily skin STAY AWAY. When I first bought this, I had combo/oily skin and although I loved the way it looked when first applied, after an hour or so I would start looking pretty oily and it would breakdown and oxidise by midday which is super unideal. I also think the shade I had was a smidgen too dark for me. I think if you had normal/dry skin you may love this foundation and hence I am thinking of trying it out again in winter when my skin tends to be dry. The foundation provides light to medium coverage and has a natural/dewy finish.
Tips: Be careful when getting it out the bottle as there is no pump!
I have been using fit me foundation for about a year and find it great, i have tried a few shades but have settled on 125 which suits my skin well for winter and summer. it glides on smooth and evenly and lasts all day
Tips: I also use a BB cream which helps with any foundation
i found 'fit me foundation' good and bad as i have sometimes quite oily skin and it didnt do my skin justice, i have some friends that have used it and found it very good. It depends on your skin type.
It's light weight and easy to wear. Not to mention it is cheap :) I stubbled apon this product at a sale and have loved it. I use 120 and it fits me perfectly. I also have the powder which I like to use in winter to set this.
I find the product light weight and is easy to wear on my skin. It is however not long wearing (I could not put it on in the morning and still be ok to go out that night) but that is ok as my everyday work wear. So it is catch 20/20 while I like the price of this for everyday wear it is not as good as products that go the extra mile.
The packaging I like because it fits inside my make up bag and is simple glass with a black lid. I also like being able to see how much I have left.
Tips: In summer the foundation alone is perfect but in winter you may find the powder (that matches your colour) works to set it and give you a bit more body.
