Maybelline Fit Me Foundation Review

I have been using this product for the last few months and haven't really had any issues with it. I think that it does need the matching powder just because it tends to leave your face quite dewy and takes aaaaaages for that to go away, unless using powder. It's definitely fantastic if you don't have a huge budget for make up and it does give a good foundation to your face and is easy to use :)

This foundation isn't amazing - some people I know love it but I'm not a huge fan . For me it was hard to find my colour it was either too dark or too orange for my liking . I also didn't like how it took so long to dry on your face and then felt like you had nothing on an hour later . I wouldn't use it again .

So I haven't really been fond of liquid foundations but given the fact that it was on sale at the time, I thought I might try it out...

I have quite pale skin and already had the FitMe powder in 120 so I thought it would be simple and the 120 Liquid version would be a close match to the powder. I was wrong, it was at least 2 shades darker then my skin and made me look a bit like a Oompa Loompa.

I admit, it is part my fault for not matching the foundations before I purchased, but considering I have the same 'shade' in the powder I though it would work out.

It's also quite a light coverage which is fine for me as I don't like anything to heavy.

These foundations I find have a slight orangey tone. It is unpleasant under certain lights. However the coverage itself had as much coverage as you would get for the price. It got rid of redness but still kept those red blemishes and didn't dim them out very well. Its a very thin texture which takes a lot on the beauty blender to blend it in to your skin so it doesn't look like its caked on.

I find that it is very oil so you must apply powder over the top to even it out. By the end of the day foundation had gotten slightly runny by my nose and became blotchy in places. So I wouldn't recommend wearing it on a a sunny hot day, the foundation will not stay.

When I was about 15/16 and first started getting into makeup, this was the first foundation I bought. It was great for the time being, very sheer and natural coverage made it perfect for everyday wear to school. However I tried it again last week and found it is nothing special. It fades off in about 3 hours and makes my face look oily. I don't think I would buy this again. For the price I think you can get far better drugstore foundations.

It was good for light coverage but not good if you are wanting something for a night out or to cover up any discolouration etc.

i brought this to try something a little new, when i first used it, it was just so runny and when applying it to my skin it just disappeared, i had to apply quite a bit to get the redness hidden, so it didn't work so much for me, didn't give me much coverage at all. just felt like sunblock going onto my skin. but however my sister tried it and it worked nicely for her gave her perfect coverage and looked flawless.. it just didn't work for me

I think this was my first Maybelline foundation. I used to love this but back then, I wasn't so into makeup and I was truly a beginner and didn't know my proper shades yet etc.

Anyway, I love the shade selection of the Fit Me range. It's great because you're bound to find a match and if not, you can easily blend two shades together for the perfect foundation match on your skin.

The formula is quite runny and be careful with the bottle because it doesn't have a pump. Since I have oily skin, I didn't find this foundation too great after a while. It just didn't last as long and didn't help mattify my skin either after a few hours of wear. I stopped using it and haven't reached for it in a very long time.

I think this is better for dry to normal skin but for oily ones, stay away. Maybelline just brought out a Matte + Poreless Fit Me foundation and that is much better for oily skin.

The coverage of this foundation is lovely but through out the day it goes very oily on my skin. I switched to the matte and poreless and its great.

I'm not 100% sure that I really like this foundation for a few reasons. Firstly, the packaging isn't great, and it is so easy to pour out way too much product as there is no pump. It doesn't have a very nice smell either, but it fades away quite soon after being applied. I also found that it doesn't give very good coverage at all, and it moved around a lot on my face and went very patchy, although this could be because I have oily skin. Its also kind of hard to apply nicely with a brush, I found that a beauty blender made it look nicer. It didn't oxidise as much as I thought it would, but it still does a little bit. Maybe it is better suited to those with drier skin? But its not really my cup of tea.
