Maybelline Fit Me Foundation Review

I gave this foundation a go as it looked to be good and the colour was perfect for my skin. It did what it said it would in the sense that my skin was able to breath and stay feeling fresh, however, it did not meet my expectations. This foundation felt good on my skin, but it was quite thin and did not provide the type of coverage that I prefer, it also left my skin quite greasy/oily looking and I had to keep reapplying powder throughout the day. If you are only looking for light coverage just to even out skin tone, this product could be great for you! However, out of preference I like a little bit more coverage (to hide those little imperfections of my skin!).

The initial colour and cover was fairly good and I was happy with it when I initially put it on. However, it moved an awful lot, faded and wasn't very matte. I put setting spray over it and primer under it, it still moved. I really wanted to like this, but unfortunately it didn't live up to my expectations.

So being that the colour range that is available in NZ is a little too light for me (by one or two shades), I had to get my colours from Amazon.com, which is unfortunate but what I have to do to get colours in this range that match me.

I found the Matte and Poreless gave me great coverage and a little bit of product went a long way. It was also pretty long lasting which is something I am constantly looking for when trying new foundations. I found the best application method for me was a flat top brush. Application was effortless and was super quick which is also important to me.

Unfortunately I cannot say the same for the Dewy and Smooth formula. It was a streaky mess when applying and looked patchy and, well, pretty bad. Not sure if it was my moisturiser that it wasn't agreeing with or just my face in general, however after the one or two tries that I gave it, it is now sitting in my make up drawer... I may give it a go another time, but for right now, I would not repurchase it!

I've tried this product a few times and I haven't found a shade that works for me. Any shade lighter than 120 is too light, but the shade 120 is too dark for my skin colour and I found it to be very orange.

I do like the formula of this though! It looks and feels good on my skin, stays well, and does everything else I look for in foundation (minus matching my skin colour). It's affordable and I think it would be good value for money if you found a shade that worked for you. Unfortunately, it wasn't for me!

I have quite oily skin so this foundation didn't sit well with my skin type, I could imagine for someone who isn't as oily it would be amazing, the coverage was quite good but I wouldn't buy it again

I found this foundation a bit hit and miss really - the coverage is super light so if you are trying to cover anything I wouldnt bother, I think it sits well over top of a BB cream, and for its price range does preform quite well. But if you were looking for a good all rounder with decent coverage I definitely would not reccomend this!

I uset to purchase this product because it was cheap and worked well on my skin. It feels very light on your akin which is great my only complaint is it doesnt have as much coverage as i would like.

I use this foundation as a base, or a primer before applying a better, more full coverage foundation for then I go out. I apply it with my fingers and it does even out my skin tone really nicely before putting on a full face of makeup. I have worn it a few times on its own, but it doesn't quite give me the coverage I need to feel absolutely confident.

I found this product to have light to medium coverage but didnt feel heavy on the skin and it was really easy to match to my skin tone.
