Designer Brands Longwear 24 Hour Foundation Review

I was lucky enough to nab the last bottle in my shade at my local pharmacy (649 classic ivory). Sally-Jo from YouTube raves about this one and is fair skinned like myself, so I really wanted to try it out and see what the fuss is all about.

The packaging is actually surprisingly luxe for the price point. The bottle is a matte frosted glass and is quite heavy. The pump works brilliantly and dispenses the perfect amount to apply two thin coats across my face.

I find that this is best applied with the fingers and then finished off with the beauty blender. IMO it works best with a primer which smoothes across the pores as this can have a tendency to sit somewhat in the pores around my nose. With two thin coats the coverage on this was absolutely brilliant, enough to cover all redness and pretty much all of the hyperpigmentation on my chin. I have heard a lot of comparisons with this to doublewear- I own doublewear and I actually think this one is a bit more wearable. It doesn't get cakey and is only slightly less full coverage than doublewear.

For this to last all day on my skin I absolutely have to powder; I don't typically get oily with this (or any) foundation but my skin just seems to eat it up otherwise, and its gone within a couple hours. But if you do ensure to prime and set with powder this lasts all day, without cakiness or oiliness, and just a teeny bit of settling in the pores. Its also so refreshing to select an ivory shade from a drugstore product and have it be genuine ivory, finally one which is light enough for super pale skins!

I am very impressed with this foundation and it has become my go to when I want to wear something full coverage that will last the distance. For the pricepoint I would absolutely recommend this over its high end counterpart double wear as I think it is just so much more comfortable to wear and much more reliable in its application. Will absolutely repurchase- and at $16.99- come on people give this one a go!

I have the lightest shade in porcelain ivory. The shade itself is great because its not too pinky which very light shades usually are.

The foundation is quite thick in consistency and does feel quite thick on the face so I don't agree with the claim that it doesn't feel heavy. I wouldn't wear it everyday because of this but I do think it's a great affordable option for special occasions.

Apart from it being a little bit heavy on me, I can't really fault this product. For the price, I do think it's one of the best on the market especially for people who want to use cruelty free or vegan products.

I apply it with a damp beauty sponge. I have also tried it with my fingers but I think a sponge or brush would be best for even coverage.

I was in pharmacy and waiting for my medicine. Meanwhile i was doing some time pass and was looking foundation suddenly I get perfect skin match colour ( warm honey for summer only) it's very hard to find my skin match colour so I straight away bought it without think it's good or bad. After reach the home I checked review on BR.

Let's start talk about packaging. It nice pump glass bottle with plastics click lid like other foundation bottle. And price is 16.99$ for nice foundation impressive. Foundation consistency is not thick or runny but perfect. Like perfect blendable formula so you can achieve medium to full coverage. Foundation is for all skin type but I didn't thinks so for oily skin will like to. Hey but you can't go wrong try this foundation.

This foundation doesn't have more colour just limited. However I found my skin match its surprise me. I use sponge and brush for application because I have some dry skin on my face. I apply foundation 7am and till 5pm is alright but than I after I can see my discolouration. That time I apply Mac skin finish power for bit long last. If I want dewy look I use damp sponge gives me nice healthy glowing skin. Designer brand is really good for beginner and expert too. I'll buy this in future. Cheap price and good quality

Having tried many foundations over the years I was intrigued to try this with all it's boasting. Unfortunately I was deeply disappointed. No matter how I applied it, it was streaky. Within a couple of hours of application it was patchy. The only thing I liked was the colour.

This foundation was the first one I purchased as a teenager. It was amazing on my skin, and it is super affordable but also gives full coverage and doesn't look cakey on the skin!

Caked into lines was patchy and aged me 1000 years. I think it was just just too heavy for me . As most long wear foundation tends to be.
