First let me explain my hunt for foundation... I have bareminerals, on "special occasions" I would wear this to create that airbrushed look but I wanted something liquid with medium coverage. I tried several foundations and just didn't fall in love with any of them. I'll review those soon, I had heard good things about this product on MakeUpTalk, if you have never checked out that site please DO it's amazing.
I purchased this foundation in bamboo which is the third in the collection and is the equivalent of "creamy natural". Below is a chart that shows the colors....
The Packaging: I like the packaging of this a lot, it's small enough that I can throw it in my purse and I also like that it's plastic and not glass, the other day I was in my friends car and noticed her broken bottle of foundation that was all over the place, ick! Because of the way the bottle is stored the, opening facing down it's easy to get the product out when you need it! A big PLUS!
The Foundation: I have applied this foundation the old fashion way, with my fingertips and it applies smoothly and evenly. It doesn't have any shimmer, which I like, I don't want to look like a disco ball. It smells nice as well which is a plus it's going on your face, having a stinky face is a NO NO. It really does blend perfectly, it almost melts into my skin while covering imperfections... here is a picture before and after. (please note I usually apply a bronzer after so I look a bit more glowy)
Before: Notice the red blotchy on my chin :( |
This product can be found in stores for $10-$13 dollars however online it's significantly less expensive!
Final Thoughts: If you are looking for a nice, clean and natural looking and feeling product I strongly recommend this!
Have any of you tried it? What do you think?
