A couple of months ago I managed to get my hands on this foundation. As I live in England, it’s super hard to get brands such as Makeup Forever unless you’re willing to pay a ridiculous amount of money on the shipping. I, however was lucky as some of my friends went to Paris to a Makeup Forever seminar and they had discount on the products. I asked my friend to pick one up for me in the same shade as her and luckily it was the right colour!
Now I have had this product since March, I feel like I have used it enough times to tell you what I think about it.
I use this product pretty much everyday. It has been the only foundation I have worn over the past few months so if I was wearing makeup, that was what I was wearing. And, you don’t need a lot of this. When using this, I apply this directly onto my face, rather than a brush. A couple swipes on my forehead, one on my nose, a couple on each cheek and one on my chin; seems a reasonable amount right? Using this amount of the product is enough to cover my face and still gives me a good amount of coverage. However, I have come to realise recently that I really don’t have much left of this, it will probably last around 2-3 more weeks. Now to me, that doesn’t seem like long. When using other, liquid foundations, they tend to last me a good few months before I have to buy another. However I feel this has run out rather rapidly, even my friends have been shocked as to how little I have left. But is this just because it’s a stick foundation that it’s run out quickly? I’ve never tried any other stick foundations, but please let me know if you have and that they run out at this speed too!
However, on the upside, I absolutely LOVE this product!
It gives me a great amount of coverage, I would say it’s medium. It gives a nice healthy glow without making my skin look oily. And it (somehow) manages to keep most of the oils on my skin at bay! Which is the best thing as my skin gets so oily during the day and its so hard to keep my makeup looking nice without touching up my makeup (which I never have time to do!)
This foundation blends like a dream on my skin! I have been loving pairing it with the Cover FX skin enhancing drops in ‘moonlight’ too. I apply 3 small drops of them, blend them in to give my skin a healthy glow and then apply the foundation. The foundation sits well over the enhancing drops and still lets the glow of them show throw meaning my skin looks super healthy and gives a gorgeous glow!
As soon as I can get my hands on this foundation again, I most definitely will be!
Have you ever tried this foundation? If so, what were your thoughts on it? And can you recommend any other stick foundations that are easy to get your hands on? Let me know down in the comments!
Lots of Love
