This luxurious foundation stays flawlessly smooth and looks naturally perfect in any environment.

Non-transfer and waterproof.

Retail: $46.00


My skintype: Normal/combonation, bit of oil in the tzone into the day
Let me just start off by saying, I have a TON of foundations for personal use from MAC to MUFE to Maybellene to Cover FX and more lol. Which one I use all just depends on my mood, what I’m looking for that morning and what I need it to do/how long my day will be.

I always moisturizer and let it set in for a few minutes before applying a foundation primer… if you’re oily make sure you use a mattifying primer.

Believe it or not, I totally forgot I even had this. It had been sitting in my makeup stash for a couple months now :$

First impressions:
- heavy bottle (but it’s frosted glass with gives it a luxurious feel)
- very liquidy at first (I thought it was going to be really sheer)
- has a bit of a fragrance

Impressions after application (7am):

- ou la la <3 very nice finish, semi matte, looks flawless
- good amount of coverage (with concealer around eye area)
- doesn’t feel thick or heavy at all
- could be a little bit more “yellow” tinted (I love being yellow LOL)
A little goes a long way!!, 1/4 of one pump overed half the back of my hand (applied with Sephora's "airbrush" foundation brush

 


Impressions by lunch time:

- three of my coworkers had commented how pretty I look today :)
- tad bit of shine in the nose but not enough to bother me or make me wipe it away
- a tad bit darker than this morning
- can still smell the fragrance a bit
- still looks natural :D

Impressions by 5pm (when I would usually need a touch up before I head elsewhere)

- kinda started to fade it seems, a bit more sheer
- Ok for if I was just hitting the mall but if I had to go out out somewhere, I’d definitely touch it up a bit to make it “fresher”

Overall: Love how it looks to start, perfectly natural, absolutely flawless still provides coverage but if you don’t like products with any sort of fragrance you definitely want to test it out first. I love how it feels on my skin A LOT better than my MAC foundations & my MUFE foundations. Weather it’s worth the price difference – depends on how daring I’m feeling that week! Still need to test it's "waterproof" claim because that's one thing I'm SUPER picky about - if it truly is, then it will DEFINITELY be on my "re-buy" list :)
