Original fit me foundation is definitely a NO GO for oily skin. within just a couple of hours even after setting with a powder this foundation has me looking like a oil slick. did not like it at all. However matte and poreless i do like. provides pretty good coverage, evens out my skin tone, can still see freckles and my veins on my checks though so not full coverage at all. Doesn't cover redness on my checks to well still need to conceal that. Is matte right from application so i find you need to blend out quickly, love doing this with sigma F80 flat top kabuki. good for every day wear as it looks natural and efortless but tends to still become quite oily on me after around 5-6 hours of wear would need to blot oil and re powder.

Tips: If your oily like me, still set with a powder, as it does not stay matte on oily skin types.
The only thing for me is that it seemed a bit patch not so even when spreaded on, not very consistent with finishing look so had to apply more to certain areas however that was before but now I've been getting use to applying it properly so now it makes my face look very flawless and camera ready
Tips: Maybe spice the bottles up a bit give it a funky look
This stuff is soo good! When I was living with my friend in the university accomodation, I borrowed her FitMe foundation and it literally blew my mind! and because I'm not much of a foundation wearer it showed as much of a shock to actually be really enjoying this foundation, you better believe I then claimed her FitMe foundation for keeps. It slides on your face so smoothly, and gives such a clear, perfect canvas to begin your artwork as per say ;) It doesnt look too cakey and its so weightless you cant even feel it. Such a good product, definitely recommend to all foundation advocates.
Tips: I found it works best with a beauty sponge.
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
I thought this foundation would work me because it's perfect for oily skin and it did not. I don't think the foundation applied to my skin flawlessly.
Tips: I recommend using a beauty blender
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.
I haven't quite found a shade in this foundation so haven't bought it again but it went on nicely felt not too thick .
I thought this would be a great shade for me as I usually find foundation shades hard to match. however the colour I chose didn't match my skin it was very light compared to the bottle. which I was quite surprised about since this is advertised at "women of colour" I am half islander/half kiwi.
the formula is runny and goes on very light, I found it wasn't even great to use as a base product. it stuck into all my pores and wasn't quite right, it also left my oily skin feeling very greasy.
Tips: wasn't suitable for my oily skin!
Finding a good foundation for me is hard as I have such dry skin, and alot of foundations end up looking flaky etc but I found this one too be really nice. It's not too heavy and Cakey on the skin and gives good coverage. The packaging is cute and simple.
Tips: Blend with brush
So being that the colour range that is available in NZ is a little too light for me (by one or two shades), I had to get my colours from Amazon.com, which is unfortunate but what I have to do to get colours in this range that match me.
I found the Matte and Poreless gave me great coverage and a little bit of product went a long way. It was also pretty long lasting which is something I am constantly looking for when trying new foundations. I found the best application method for me was a flat top brush. Application was effortless and was super quick which is also important to me.
Unfortunately I cannot say the same for the Dewy and Smooth formula. It was a streaky mess when applying and looked patchy and, well, pretty bad. Not sure if it was my moisturiser that it wasn't agreeing with or just my face in general, however after the one or two tries that I gave it, it is now sitting in my make up drawer... I may give it a go another time, but for right now, I would not repurchase it!
