Expensive but worth it!
I bought this after really liking the Vitalumiere Aqua Foundation; while I still prefer that formula, this foundation is pretty awesome in of itself. I have combination/normal skin for the record.
PROS: - it's long lasting - it has a wide range of coverage; if you use a foundation brush, it's a light to medium coverage and if you use the sponge that comes with it, it becomes more of a medium to full coverage. - the formula is really buildable to your liking (as touched on in my last point). - the case it comes in is so pretty and quite sturdy. the provided mirror is a pretty decent size for a compact, so that's nice. - SPF! need I say more? - it's water based foundation and is really nice because it doesn't cause breakouts. yay!
CONS: - the lid to keep the product fresh inside the compact is a bit tricky to close because I can never tell if it's really shut or not. you have to push pretty hard down on it and hope for the best because it doesn't make a snapping noise. - it is weak as a base foundation. I like to use it for touch ups on top of the Vitalumiere Aqua Foundation throughout the day; it works really well for this purpose. - you definitely have to go to a counter to be matched; if you have the VA foundation though, the shades are consistent. - the price is a bit much.
Overall, this does have a place in my routine and I would certainly buy it again. It makes my skin look clear and dewy plus it covers up blemishes and dark circles well.
Only foundation I completely hate
I'm going to start saying that this foundation would be best for people with normal to dry skin... pretty much for people with normal and perfect skin to be honest. I have combination, and the foundation never gets absorbed completely, if I touch my face (don't even have to rub) at any point during the day, the foundation would come off without a doubt. I thought that was because my skin type... but I had dry patches sometimes and this thing enhances it! I hate it, everything about it... wears off, my face feels wet and heavy all day, it's hard to blend, and the color sucks too! My face looks so yellow with that thing on... with the beige rose it looks orange! Awful! such a waste of money...
awesome foundation last for a long period :P highly recomend Its great for anything for just a normal day or for wedding. although is a little expensive ill be worth all your money cause just a little goes a long way.
