I have only found a few foundations in my day that actually work for my skin type. I have combo skin and I find a lot of foundations wear away in my problem areas even wi a good primer. I purchased this as a cheaper day to day foundation so I could save my more expensive ones for special occasions etc.
I'm a big fan of full coverage and this foundation blew me away with the coverage quality! It blends outs perfectly. This foundations seems to work great with my everyday primer and I haven't found any makeup slipping away for creasing, it basically stays all day. It even holds up well around my my sunglasses, other brands I have to re blend this area a lot and it winds me up! The only this I can fault is I'm not a fan of the scent of this foundation...... All in all for the amazing price of this I'm so glad I purchased this I will be using it until the bottle is empty !
I picked this up for a ridiculously cheap price at one of the Big bucket deals sales in town. I had previously been trying to find a foundation that met my standards, most of the ones I have tired just didn't work for me. I find it so hard to find a foundation because of the fact that I have large pores, skin issues and a large red birthmark to cover. I always end up back at the Rimmel Stand all the time.
The bottle has a screw on lid so its easy to get the product out. I'm sort of relieved that its screw on because of the numerous times I have had bad luck with foundations and the pump has clogged or been faulty. Looks like we are off to a good start. I like how it is SPF 18. I like having SPF in a foundation, even if it is not much, It still counts! I expected a light to medium coverage for the price I paid. Okay, maybe sort of leaning toward the lighter coverage side. I applied this foundation with my Real Techniques Brush. I was surprised how great it blends. It looks natural and to my surprise, The coverage is medium to full. It covers all my skin concerns and It covers my large red birthmark! I am in love with how amazing the quality of this foundation is. It is a winner for sure. I am always surprised by Rimmel products and i'm such a fan of their products.
I will continue to repurchase this foundation. I am so impressed that I have recommended it to all my friends and family.
