(available from fragrancedirect and cheapsmells from just £3)
I've been on the hunt for foundations as I still haven't found my perfect one. Whilst browsing cheapsmells my eye fell on this foundation. It has the description that is 'a professional foundation used by photographic studios, television, theatre and professional make up artists worldwide. All day moisturising foundation'. And if it's good enough for them it must be good enough for me!
The packaging itself looks expensive which is brilliant considering the price. I've never been a fan of how foundations are usually stored - in bottles or tubes that mean the last bits are completely wasted. This foundation however is in a tub which is perfect because when I come to the end I'll be able to get the last bits out and even add moisturiser for a tinted look.
I bought this in 'blend of porcelain' - the only difficulty with this being that on the website there are no indications of how the colour will show up. I've got very pale skin so foundations tend to look quite orange on me. Luckily I chose the perfect colour.
On first view this foundation is quite thick, which I thought would make it difficult to blend and leave my skin patchy. It's certainly not! It blends like a dream and a little does go quite a fair way. It covers up any blemishes and gives my skin a nice, healthy glow. As you may know I'm not a fan of 'glowing' foundations however this is quite subtle although I do use powder over the top. For anyone else I'm sure they'll be pleased with this look.As you can see it blends into my skin really well and (as you can see from my moles) it covers over my skin well leaving no real traces of blemishes. This foundation lasts around the 6 hour mark which is impressive considering it's not a specifically long lasting foundation. I've also had compliments on my skin whilst wearing this foundation - something I'm very happy with!
