Manic Panic Dreamtone Liquid Flawless Foundation Review

This is great for all the pale ladies out there. This year, during summer, I bought my first Double Wear foundation and fell in love with it. However when winter came, and my skin lost all of its ‘tan’ I was left with no foundation to use. It didn’t help that the palest of all the DW was still too dark for me. Then I found this beauty. I have this in Virgin White, which as the name suggests it pure white. I blend it with my DW and create a colour that perfectly suits my skin tone. It has been an absolute life saver! The consistency is slightly thick, and when paired with DW can feel quite heavy, but when mixed with thinner, lighter foundations it works fine. Depending on the foundation it is mixed with it can be create a Medium to Full coverage. I have also begun to use small amounts to cover blemishes and redness before applying foundation. Once I have applied the foundation on top, all the imperfections have disappeared, leaving me with flawless skin. The packaging is pretty simplistic, although I really hate the pump as sometimes product literally comes flying out. However that could just be a faulty pump. For the price I cannot fault this little beauty. If anyone out there, like me, has trouble with finding pale foundations I definitely recommend this. I’ll admit it does take a bit of practice to get the ratio of white to normal foundation right, but it is definitely worth it in the long run.

I used to use this stuff religiously as a mixer for my foundations, other pale girls out there will feel my pain in finding a foundation shade that is pale enough for you but also has the same undertone as you; I found that often my undertone was 2 or 3 shades darker than me in any range, so using a white mixer saved me a lot of stress. I only wore this foundation alone once as part of a costume, and it lasted great! A small amount of creasing in my smiles lines, but I get that with nearly everything I put on my face. I never noticed this foundation having any affect on the degree of coverage I was getting from other foundations, or lessening the length of wear I was getting from them. Overall, a great product :)

Very rarely when I purchase a foundation am I able to find the right shade. My skin is on the very pale side and I always need to mix it with a lighter shade or white foundation to make a colour that matches. This foundation is by far the best one I've found for this purpose and it has mixed in perfectly with everything so far. I love the finish it creates, it's looks really good all day and I appreciate that the brand is cruelty free and vegan. My only gripe is that I wish this was available more easily to purchase within NZ. Completely recommend this though and in my opinion worth the effort to find it online to buy!

I’ve got really fair skin and often struggle to find a foundation light enough, so when somebody told me about this product I went and got it straight away. Simply blend with however much foundation you want to apply, build up to your desired lightness. It blends in really well and lasts long. The writing on the bottle has faded after a few years but the liquid is still good. It’s become essential to my makeup routine.
