Wet N Wild Photo Focus Foundation Review

I have used a whole bottle of this foundation previously, and have just bought a new bottle from Farmers recently and it reminded me why I didn't bother to repurchase it straight away, as the colour selection is not that great for my skintone atleast - it comes out wayyyy too pink on me, and its just so hard to find any colour that suits my skin closely enough so I always have to mix it with another foundation, apart from that the actual foundation for the money is AMAZING! It has great coverage and lasts all day. If you don't have a problem with mixing and matching with foundation colours, then this is a good foundation!

I picked this up because its so affordable and really wanted to give it a go.

I have normal - dry skin and I found it had quite a good balance of matte finish (but not super matte) + hydration for my skin. I didnt get any dry patches using it and it lasts throughout the day pretty well. I apply with a sponge and finish with a light dusting of powder to set.

I like the stick applicator as its less messy than trying to tip onto your sponge or fingers etc.

I would purchase this again if they expanded the shade range. It is very limited and none really suit my skin currently which is a shame cos its a good little daily wearer.

It’s not the best foundation I’ve ever used but I did find that my skin had a bit of a “blur” effect. For the price it’s a great foundation! It’s accessible and affordable. It is very fragranced however, smells very chemically.

The Wet N Wild Foundation does the job for an affordable option. It definitely provides a good amount of coverage and helps to even out my skin tone. However, I did find that it was a bit cakey on my skin, especially around my nose and forehead area.

After a few hours of wear I also noticed the foundation starting to split and separate on my skin. I tried using different settings powders and primers to see if it would help but unfortunately the issue continued.

Overall, I think the Wet N Wild foundation is a decent option for those looking for high coverage at a budget-friendly price. However if you have oily or combination skin like mine, you may want to proceed with caution and be aware of potential cakiness and splitting.

This foundation has a medium to full coverage. I love how it covers some of my imperfections on my face. I also love how it is so very cheap. However, I kinda unlike the smell of this foundation because it smells like chemicals plus the applicator kinda feels rough on my face aswell. Also, this foundation does not stay for too long so you really need to use a primer as a base.I guess this foundation would suit those who are still starting into makeup since it is very affordable.

This is a pretty good medium to full coverage foundation for such a low price! I found its quite drying in some areas of my face (nose and chin) so if you have dry skin, i probably wouldn't recommend this one. It has pretty good coverage so that's pretty impressive considering its so affordable :)

I’ve been using this product on and off for over a year and it’s one I’d happily repurchase for the summer time. I bought this for $USD4.99 from the Wet n Wild website (using a forwarding address) before the brand was available in NZ. I mainly bought this because I’ve been haunted by my pics where there is horrendous flashback. I bought the shade Caramel and in summer it’s perfect but I need to go down a shade in winter.

It comes in a sturdy glass jar which fits in the palm of my hand along with a plastic spatula applicator. I’m not too fond of the applicator because as you start to near the end of the product it’ll take more than just a spatula to get the product at the bottom.

It’s a liquid formula that’s not too runny and doesn’t dry too quickly so that you have enough time to spread the product over your face. It provides some coverage which you can build up so for people like myself that are trying to go for a more natural look this would be perfect.

When I first apply the product (I dot my fingers with the spatula – that’s how minimal I’m going with my makeup) it doesn’t look too promising. The shade and finish tends to look a little off at the start but once it’s blended in it seems to work with the warmth of my skin as well as the oils to settle nicely into my skin.

The finish leans more towards a natural finish that is not overly matte. By the 6th hour it’s only just starting to take on a more dewy finish which I can extend if I set my face with powder at the start. The foundation photographs beautifully with no flashback just a natural looking face of makeup. Note that I've only taken pics with Apple/Samsung phones and Canon camera.

For the price point and how well it performs on my oily skin I would recommend this to those going for makeup with some coverage and wanting a night of photos that won’t haunt them.

This was my first product from wet and wild and loved the price! also like how its meant to look good in photos under various lights. Every youtuber was raving about this so I picked it up, its not bad and for the price its an okay foundation but it didn't sit nicely on my skin it always looked cakey and patchy - especially when I'd fake tan and use a darker shade. It looked ok in photos but in some it still looked off. I have normal to slightly dry skin and this made my skin feel quite dry.

After hearing so many great things about this foundation I decided to give it a go. $13 for a foundation is so awesome, but to be honest I didn't have high hopes at first. I don't really love the little applicator wand, I don't use it at all.

It comes in a sturdy glass bottle, I got the lightest shade and find it is not a bad match for my fair skin. I have dry skin and if I don't exfoliate first and prep my skin well it definitely clings to my dry patches.

It is nice and lightweight and does not cake on me, it lasts all day on me and doesn't oxidize at all. It looks pretty good at the end of the day, I really hate having to touch up my foundation during the day so I generally never do this. It does however have an odd paint smell, it doesn't hang around long but I find it unpleasant.

Photo wise it is pretty great, I don't take a lot of pics but on a girls night out I wore this and the pics looked really great! So a definite thumbs up for that. I do really like this foundation but think my skin may be too dry so really need a hydrating foundation. Definitely give it a go and see if it suits your skin.

Trying to get into the whole foundation thing so picked this up on a shopping haul. $13 is super affordable. I shade matched online in advance and have to say this is a pretty good match. (Desert Beige) Even though it's affordable I still think it has nice packaging. Glass with a black top lid. Has a spatula type applicator that i apply to spots on my face before blending in.

I'm not a full cover queen so have never tried to build up the foundation, I prefer a natural type look. I like the result and find it to be flattering and complimentary, not cakey. It does have a scent, it's a bit offputting but you don't smell it after applying it. Can use other make up products on top of this and have no problems. Blends out easily with a brush (don't know about a blender as I don't use them)

I am happy with this product and would repurchase again in future. Great starter foundation if you are just getting into base products.
