Amazing drug store foundation

Amazing product for a drug store foundation lasts great on the skin but can wear if on skin for too long (6-8hrs I find on me) but for everyday wear or short outtings, amazing product

Gives light, dewy coverage

I bought this foundation in the dewy+smooth version from an online discount store. I don't think I've ever tried the original fit me before but I was definitely keen to give this a go when I saw they had a specific dry skin formula.

Packaging wise, I think this looks nice with it's glass bottle and black cap. You can easily see how much foundation is left and which colour it is. I hate, hate the open top though. I really wish this had a pump. When it's new, you usually end up pouring way too much out. I only have about 1/4 left so it's not such a big deal now but mine is all messy at the opening which I dislike.

I have this in the shade 130 buff beige. It's a little orange and maybe a touch too dark but it's workable. I think the next colour down from this would actually be too light for me. I wish there was a bit more of a shade range, although this does say it has 18 shades in the range so I'm probably just being too fussy. I don't think this looks too odd on my skin anyway. This also has a spf 18 which I like. It says octinoxate sunscreen, I actually have no idea what that means at all but I am happy to have sunscreen included.

For me, this gives a light coverage. I do use a sponge as for my dry skin, I feel it applies foundation best. I haven't tried it out with a brush yet but you could possibly get a medium coverage with one. I do think this could be layered though to get more coverage as well. This really does give a dewy finish. And that dewy look lasts all day. I feel like if you had oily skin, you would hate this so much but as I have dry skin, it really gives me the look that I want. It doesn't cling to my dry patches either!

Wear time is good, I don't powder either which would probably make it last longer. I still get a good 8 hours of wear before it comes off. It can wear off quite unevenly if I get sweaty or touch my face though but I think that happens with most foundations.

I think I would pick this up again. The open bottle puts me off a lot but the actual foundation is nice. I do have seriously dry skin and generally have trouble finding a foundation that doesn't accentuate that dryness for me. If you have trouble too, I'd really recommend giving this one a go.

Matte and poreless

I use the matte and poreless one in 110 the lightest shade and it is amazing light weight and easy to blend out when applying. Only thing I don't like is 110 is so HARD to find in stores so have to buy online but is a great reasonable foundation

Pretty awesome.

I have super dry skin and tried the dewy fit me and I really like it. It didn't cling to my dry patches the colour matches me well and the coverage is buildable. I don't have Alot of dislikes with this product except there isn't a pump to it. I think people with dry skin will like the dewy one.

Love it!

I love the formula of this foundation. I always buy the matte and poreless one and I haven't tried the dewy formula.

I love that this product is very blendable. When I apply it to my face, it's dewy and it dries up to matte. During hot days, this product becomes dewy after a long wear but it stays on your face. I also love that you have a lot of shades to choose from and you can buy the darker shades for contouring.

Tips: Use a makeup primer during summer and finish it with a loose powder to make it perfect

Drug store greatness

I've gone through two bottles of this amazing little foundation. It isn't a heavy, cakey foundation, which I love! It's got a good range of skin colours. However, I do find that it is not a very moisturizing product and so putting on primer beforehand is a must. I would rate this on par with the L'Oreal True Match foundation, which is also great.

Tips: Use a primer beforehand. I use the stila primer and I think they work well together.

Shade suits me well

I have always found that Maybelline shades suit me perfectly (or should I say 'fit me' perfectly). This foundation gives me a medium coverage which I like but I do find myself having to reapply part way through the day. It is really great value for money and can be bought at the supermarket which is how I first discovered it after I foolishly forgot my foundation while away on holiday! (Rookie mistake... but turned out to be a positive!)

Lovely Foundation Formula!

The Fit Me foundation was the first liquid foundation I ever used, and I have found that it was a great staring point in my 'foundation life'. To this day, i still use it, and I love the coverage and pigment of the formula. Its very easy to apply, medium to full coverage depending on the amount you use and it is long lasting. I bought this in summer when I was a bit tan, and found that through the winter, the colour I bought was too dark, however the blend ability and easy application make this a great foundation to be used all year round.

Tips: Buy a foundation one shade lighter than your actual skin tone, so that you can use it all year round, and darken it with bronzer if needed:)

FIT ME Fabulous!!!!

I much prefer Maybelline over a lot of more 'pricey' products and this foundation was fantastic. Not heavy, good coverage, last all day and also held it's own with other makeup that I applied (blush etc)
