BEST FULL COVERAGE FOUNDATION I have ever come across!
Just to emphasise how incredible this foundation is - I will give you an example. 36 degree weather in Sydney + humidity + a party bus + a 14 hour day usually is not a good sign. BUT, praise Estee Lauder because they have made the most durable foundation in the world.
I prepped my face with my moisturiser and Mac stobe cream and then poured the tiniest amount of foundation onto my hand then stroked the foundation on my face and blended blended blended away with my beauty blender. Once I was done, my skin looked amazing and flawless (with only about a pea sized amount of foundation). As i used the Mac strobe cream as well, it gave the foundation a slight glow to it which you usually dont get when wearing the foundation alone, as it is quite matte.
Not only did it last 14+ hours in the Sydney heat, it felt comfortable, remained looking amazing and didn't budge after dancing for hours. I was so amazing by it!!
The product itself comes in a standard glass (i think) bottle with no pump so it must be purchased separately, but i use it without the pump. The texture of the product is thicker than most foundations and contains spf, but does not leave a ghostly cast in photography. It blends easily and it definitely buildable so you could use the tiniest amount for normal day wear as well
Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting a good, high end and amazing quality product!!
This foundation is incredible! When I had acne this was the only one that would cover everything up while still looking amazing. It is a medium-consistency, buildable coverage foundation that stays put until you take it off. It will withstand sun, sweat and tears and still look flawless and natural. There is no need for touchups at all. It will last all day and all night if you want it to. The colour was perfect for me. With a lot of other brands of foundation I find the colours are either too pink or too yellow for me because my skin tone is classed as 'neutral' rather than warm or cool, but this came in my ideal shade. If you have oily skin in particular then this is the foundation for you because you won't end up shiny by the end of the day. It has a slightly matte finish. It is expensive but a little goes a long way and I think it's money very well spent.
Tips: For an airbrushed, flawless effect I use a MAC 187 brush to first stipple (dab) it all over my face and then swirl the brush over my face. I work fairly fast so it doesn't set before I'm finished.
