I spent a long time choosing the right foundation, and this is what I eventually settled for. Having tested other shades out, I found was the foundation and shade that "fit me" best. The colour is perfect for my skin however is comes off looking quite shiny and I don't have another powder to prevent that. I set it with a translucent powder however this doesn't seem to quite do the trick. Another annoying thing is that to get decent coverage, I end up putting quite a lot on which uses up the product fast and only makes my skin look more shiny. I'd rather add shininess with a highlighter than all over my face with a foundation!

Came in a nice glass bottle but had a screw top lid which i wasnt a fan of and i dont like over spill of product. I found this product had a very oily feeling and after applying my face looked very shiny! I found this product to be a light to medium coverage. It didnt last that long either. Would not buy this again as this formula was way to oily!!
Tips: Definately have to set this with a powder!
I decided to buy this foundation after seeing the ads about it thinking it sounds pretty good and looks easy to use. I used it once, and haven't used it again and is now gathering dust in my makeup draw. The reasons I did not like this product is the colour did not look good, it made me look quite tan in the face even though the colour I picked was the right shade for me, and I found it to be oily and not have a all day nice finish. I definitely would not recommend to my friends or anyone looking for a new brand to try.
I got this at my local KMart for $9 so why not give it a go, but once buying this and trying again I could not be more dissapointed. I have a combo olive skin with quite strong yellow undertones, I couldn't get the foundation to sit properly no matter what I tried, matte powder, blotting paper, primer, no primer and also setting spray. It just slipped off uncontrollably and made my skin super sticky which for me is a big no no. Also left my skin super shiny even after mattifying powder on my combo skin which can also slide more to the dry side.
The product consistency made it easy to blend and left an okay coverage which did not last very long. As for the colour, it definitely did have the yellow undertones I love, however the quality let it down and has been sitting in my draw for the last 3 months and I would only ever use it in desperate times.
I purchased this product with a bit of hesitation towards whether i would like it or not, I have found that I absolutely love this foundation!
The colour matches my skin perfectly and it is so easy to blend and comes out looking flawless if set right, using a good primer and finishing spray is a definite must.
I find that it oxides very fast (especially the lighter shades) and doesn't dry very matte, so applying a mattifying powder right after application is what works for me.
This is my go to foundation for any kind of event, I absolutely love it! Would 100% repurchase.
Tips: make sure to have a good primer, finishing spray. and mattifying powder.
I use this foundation for work and if I'm around home, it's good for a light coverage I wouldn't wear it if I were going out it makes my skin far to oily
I found this foundation felt very thick on the skin but was yet a very light coverage. As it being a light coverage it is perfect for an everyday and natural look, all though once you start building it, it starts to look cakey, especially is you use a brush. It doesnt let your skin breathe. Being a Matte finish it is perfect for dry skin, it doesn't cling to dry patches and if you have a thin layer it looks nice and natural, The colour range is great, having 18 shades! All in all I would repurchase this for the days i just want a light coverage.
Tips: Definitely use this if you want a light and natural look and also if you have Normal to Dry skin! Also use with a damp Beauty blender.
I really love the coverage this foundation gives you its light on your face an so easy to blend with the finishing powder. Only down side is, it fades quite fast I find myself having to reapply at least 2 times in a day.
Tips: If you use this foundation I recommend you take it in your hand bag as it fades throughout your day
I thought it had amazing coverage and longevity however my shade was all wrong. I couldn't find my perfect shade. However if you can find your shade GO GET IT. It's cheap and its a dupe in my opinion for Mac prolongwear foundation
Tips: Make sure you use a good primer and set well as it can oxidise and turn you oompah loompah
I brought the Fit Me for normal to oily skin in natural beige. I LOVE this foundation. It is my perfect colour (which is something I normally struggle to find). I apply it with my beauty blender and it ends up with a gorgeous finish - smooth, even and blemishes covered. I don't need to use much concealer with this foundation. Beautiful finish and doesn't feel like you have a mask on. I wear this all day and it doesn't fall off (even with my crappy primer I have right now, that I'm only using so I don't waste my money) and I'm am not shiney at all through out the day. Definitely a great foundation at an affordable price. Its been great for my oily face anyway :) Will definitely be buying this again.
Tips: Use a beauty blender for a beautiful smooth finish and don't forget to prime!!
