Great everyday foundation

I picked up a bottle while in the US for $6 USD and it is amazing. A little goes a long way and, the first day I wore it to work, immediately received compliments on how well the colour looked and how smooth my complexion looked. Sometimes, if my skin is quite dry, it can get a bit cakey, so I don't use it all the time in winter.

I use the shade "Linen" which seems to be quite difficult to find in most stores here, though.

Tips: I prefer using a brush with this foundation rather than a beauty blender.

Make up kit must have

I have this in my make up kit in 6 shades and its an amazingly affordable dupe for mac studio fix. I use this on clients with all sorts of skin types and tones and they love it! Like everything in my kit i used it on myself first before making the jump and i couldnt fault it. Smooth application with a matte finish, no patchyness throughout the day, no cakey build up, no flash back in photos and no wearing off half way through the day. I didnt have to touch it up and it didnt get oily either. The packaging is nice and comes in a matte finish glass bottle with a little pump for easy decantering. I use a sponge or a fluffy brush to apply this with and it works well with both options. Would reccomend for people with a low budget or if your starting out with make up.

Favourite

I am in the shade Linen and this is a gem! Price and coverage are an A+ in my book. It is long lasting but a little drying. It is also a good dupe of the Nars Luminous Weightless Foundation.

Tips: If you feel like it is a little bit too drying even after using a hydrating primer. Mix it with a hydrating foundation. I mix it with a drop of Covergirl Clean fresh skin milk foundation and it is absolutely gorgeous!

Budget Friendly.

Before I started to experiment with purchasing higher end foundations, this was my holy grail. The price and the way this product performed were what made me buy this over and over. After using more expensive foundations my opinion has changed on this but it is still a decent foundation.

The price is insane. You really can't beat it and even though this isn't my favourite foundation, if I needed something budget friendly I would buy this. The packaging mimics a lot of higher end foundation - this comes in a heavy frosted glass bottle and it has a pump.

The consistency for this is quite thick but it isn't like cement or anything. It just isn't liquidy. The coverage is medium and I found that - on my skin at least, it didn't really like to be built up. My skin is dry so this may have something to do with it.

Although the description claims this is a semi matte finish, on my skin this came off as slightly dewy. This could be down to the primers I used, but this is definitely dewy on my skin. In saying that - if you don't like a dewy look then setting powder would eliminate that.

This is easy to blend either with a brush or beauty blender. If my skin wasn't hydrated I found this did cling to dry patches, so if you have dry skin make sure it is moisturised. The wear time on this was ok, I would manage about 6 hours before it started to break down a little bit. Even though it started to break down on my skin this wasn't super obvious and even by the end of a 12hour day it wasn't glaringly obvious, although it had faded a bit.

As I mentioned above, I would purchase this if I needed an inexpensive foundation. It is excellent quality for the price. Whilst this isn't my favourite foundation, I still have a bottle of this in case I run out of my Nars Sheer Glow and need something. If you are on a budget I definitely recommend giving it a go, and this would be perfect for teenagers or those who are new to makeup.

Resonable

I recently purchased this product as I heard a lot of good things about and it's super affordable too, I really liked it, it has average coverage and is really easy to apply only thing I found was it made my dry spots stand out at the end of the day, it didn't for the start of the day though ?? But apart from that I really like this product and I really like the packaging simple but pretty

Value for Money

This foundation was great value for money. I did find that you need to apply a primer before using this product as it does seep into pores and wrinkles. (I find this is definitely happening more as I get older!) Using a moisturizer and a primer underneath worked to solve this issue. It stayed on pretty well throughout the day but definitely recommend using a setting spray.

Tips: Moisturizer and primer underneath and setting spray to finish!
