Rimmel London Match Perfection Foundation

This is the best foundation that I have tried that is in the $20 price range. I have quite fair skin and I am amazed to finally find a good cheap foundation that actually matches my skin perfectly (I'm in the shade Fair Ivory). I also have quite a bit of redness so it gives a decent medium coverage on its own. It also gives me such a lovely finish. I have purchased this foundation 3 times and you only need 2-3 pumps

Foundation is the one makeup item my skin cannot do without and my face literally drinks foundation because I use tonnes of it on a daily basis. One bottle lasts me about a month (sometimes less) because I wear foundation every single day to cover my horrid acne.

I've to apply layers of foundation (yes my skin is really bad so pick up your jaw) to get full coverage, so therefore buying a pricey high end foundation is just not meeting my needs.

I picked up Rimmel for $20 in soft beige after reading the great reviews and thought I need to give this a go. I'm really not disappointed I decided to try this foundation because I only have good things to rave about!

I apply moisturiser, primer and then the foundation and I find this foundation doesnt run away from the primer as some I have would do. I apply the first layer of foundation with my finger tips and work it vigorously around my acne, especially concentrating on the dents in my face and the darkest, most obvious scarring. The second layer I apply to my whole face using my finger tips again and would still concentrate on covering my acne. I find this foundation works amazing at blending layers into each other and there are no patchy areas around your face. For the last layer (its a very thin layer dont worry) I'll squirt one pump onto the back of my hand of using my foundation brush and lightly brush in all the work I had done with the previous layers to give my face a flawless (well as flawless as acne can be) look.

I know 3 layers sounds horrific but it is very achievable with this foundation and havent been able to do this with any other, for which I am eternally happy.

I finish my face with some pressed just dusted slightly on my T-zone and my foundation lasts the entire day! Coming home at night I have to use so much remover to get it off because it just stays put on my face which suits me perfectly.

This foundation doesnt make me shiny during the day and the best part is that it is not making my acne worse so I would definitely recommend this foundation to girls with severe acne or acne prone skin.

The quality of the foundation definitely doesnt match the price as I would expect to pay abit for a foundation that has this many benefits for my skin. I have to keep switching my foundation to avoid acne but this foundation will be on the rotation list and always make its way back into my makeup collection.

I really like this foundation. It has good packaging, it is in a glass bottle with a pump which is great. It has a nice smell to it, I would say that the coverage is light to medium and it doesn't feel or look cakey on your skin. It gives a nice dewy looking finish once applied and you can put a powder over top to set it and this will give it a matte finish. This foundation is really reasonably priced and I will definitely be repurchasing it.

This has probably been one of the best "high street" foundations that I have used in a long, long time.

I bought this on a whim after hearing about it from a makeup artist who used it on a shoot (to my surprise, I thought she was going to be another MAC user). She was completely raving about the product - and I can exactly see why. I bought it in shade '100 Ivory' and it's an exact match for me.

I find the coverage to be absolutely perfect, it covers any imperfection and lasts all day. I normally find full coverage foundations to feel super heavy but this is super light on the skin and makes me look super dewy and fresh. It also works great stippled and buffed out with a brush or with a sponge.

The product itself is a viscous fluid. It's thick but it's still quite liquidy. It also has a pleasant, almost floral, smell to it.

I would definitely recommend this to everyone who is after a full coverage foundation on the cheap.

I was given this product by a friend as it as too dark for her skin, it blends well to a natural skin tone and doesn't leave a strong and obvious makeup line. I would definitely recommend!

I love this foundation! I have already re-purchased it 4 times and still loving it. It has a light to medium coverage. But is definitely buildable and lasts most of the day. It blends really well into the skin for a natural look and has an spf of 18 to protect your skin from the sun. It is really moisturising on the skin and didn't leave me with any breakouts. Overall it does so much more than what it is worth

I love this product because it has a slight golden tint which is perfect for change of seasons . Also i have a pink base to my face to a yellow tint balances it out and takes away any redness. Feels smooth to put on gives a flawless look and lasts all day ! i have freckles so i like a cover that hides blemishes but keeps my face looking natural :)

I'm a very pale girl, meaning any light foundation I pick up is still generally 2 shades darker than my skin tone and I have to almost blend is right down to my shoulders.

The lightest shade in this collection, light porcelain, was $3 more expensive than any other colour in the range which struck me as odd, but for finally finding my colour, I didn't complain too much.

I have very dry skin and was happy to find that the formula was very runny and smooth, meaning it didn't cake on and dry my skin out even more. It has a very pleasant smell which I would explain as a light floral smell.

It stays quite well, I work as a waitress and am quite often standing in a hot kitchen, and my face didn't melt off so that's a bonus.

It comes in a pump bottle which is great for getting the right amount of product for you.

I love this foundation for summer time. It has a light to medium coverage, covers imperfections well while still looking natural, and feels nice and light on.

While I have combo skin, my biggest issue is foundations clinging to dry patches. This foundation is one of the few that doesn't cling, no matter how manner layers apply.

I'm impressed with the staying power too. I can go an eight hour day without any touchups. Pop a bit of powder on after that, and you'll get another few hours wear out it.

I owned the shade 100, so happy to finally find a brand with my shade. The consistency of the foundation is thin and liquidy, its not overly watery but it has run off my hand when i've forgotten ive had it on there. With the pump nozzle its so easy to get a desired amount. I personally apply with a foundation brush and it absorbs into my skin pretty well. Its never streaky. Mine has a really nice smell, like some foundations have an over powering scent but this is scent is gentle and like perfume. Its light coverage, takes me two pumps to get the desired coverage but once set with powder it lasts all day. A full bottle lasts me a couple months. If you have fair skin and want something light coverage then definitely try it.
