Great price but you pay for what you get... - Light coverage that you can build up to a medium but stay away ladies if you like full coverage - True to colour, does not oxidise - Not the best lasting power - Has quite a strong scent of baby powder
It you like to wear minimal makeup or just want something to even out skin tone on those 'no makeup' make up days then this is for you. I think this would be ideal for teenagers or someone starting out....
I bought this foundation off ASOS for around $12 NZ. The foundation comes in a slim medium sized tube and has 30g of product, which I think is great for the price. The hot pink font is super cute, and I love the packaging. There is a strong scent to this foundation and it smells like baby powder. I find that this smell goes away once I have applied the foundation to my face. The pump is very useful and one full pump is enough for light coverage. This foundation is buildable and does not feel cakey when you apply more product. I love that this foundation glides on to my skin smoothly and has a shine to it that dries to a matte finish. Even though this is matte, I find that it does leave a nice glow on the skin. I have the shade beige and it matches my skin perfectly! This is great to wear everyday, because it is a light coverage and feels like you are wearing a moisturiser or BB cream with the benefit of giving more coverage. The only negatives I have about this foundation is that it fades around my nose and chin area very quickly (even with a setting powder), and it clings to any dry areas I have. Because of this, I generally reach for this product when I am going somewhere quickly as I don't need to worry about touching up. I would not reccomend this to some one who has dry skin because of this. If you have oily/normal skin and are looking for an affordable foundation, this would be a great choice :)
Tips: I find the best way to apply this is to click one pump onto my hand then use a stippling brush. I then add more foundation to build up to my preferred coverage.
I actually thought this foundation was quite good for $13NZD, it did go abit oily in my t zone at around mid-day but I'm used to that having normal-oily skin so I just touched up then but got home in the afternoon and found it was still there and going strong after just 1 touch up. Definitely will repurchase for an everyday office foundation to keep my expensive ones for special occassions :)
I was makeup shopping on ASOS and decided to pop this in my cart because why not? It was only 12nzd so I wasn't worried if it turned out to be the wrong shade or just generally rubbish. I was pleasantly surprised when this turned out to be the perfect foundation! I'm an oily person and work in a hot cafe all day so I tend to sweat off most make ups, but I barely need any powder with this one and still look human at the end of my 9 hour day! I'm an NC15 in MAC products and Ivory was the perfect shade for me. Definitely going to be buying this again!
I got this product from ASOS for the highly affordable price of $11NZD. I got the shade Nude. I am quite pale and don't fake tan so thought this would be the right shade. When i got it in the post I loved the packaging!! The pink font is adorable and the pump in super handy. I was happy with the colour match to my neck and it had such a familiar smell, almost like a candle!! but this doesn't bother me. I liked the coverage, because I am more of a light-Med coverage girl.
