I looooove this foundation. Wait I don't think you heard me, I LOVE this foundation. I have tried other foundations, but this one works the best! I have combination/oily skin & this product doesn't make me look like I can fry eggs on my forehead by the end of the day. The color of the foundation works well for people who have warm/yellow undertones. The product goes on evenly, but does begin to set pretty fast. It has really good full coverage. & btw looks amazing in photos. The foundation also sticks well to your skin & doesn't melt away as the day goes by. When you have oily/combo skin like me it's great to have a product that won't go away. The ingredients don't break my skin out either like other foundations. (I have eczema). Also pair it with the smashbox photo finish primer. It glides on like butter. It's pretty pricey, but it's well worth the $. I definitely recommend :)
Love!
I have had a lot of foundations that did not match me well, and this was my first foundation that matched me perfectly. It did not wash me out at all in flash pictures! It really does give a full coverage, I didn't need to do any extra concealing. It gives an almost matte finish, but alittle satin. I like to too it off with a powder on my t zone, but I'm pretty sure it might transfer if you use too much powder to set it.
I gave it four stars because it is equally as pricey as the NARS sheer flow that I own and I don't love, and I think that's ridiculous. But also, I use the second to last shade and I know plenty of women who are much deeper in skintone. I hope they fix that.
The last thing we beauties want to worry about is our makeup fading throughout the day. The longer our days get, the longer we need our foundation to last and still appear flawless 12+ hours later. Last weekend I purchased the Smashbox Studio Skin 15 hour foundation spf 10. This is a hydrating formula which works awesome for those of you with dry skin like myself. I chose to review this foundation after testing it for one week to provide the best review. Let me just say, this foundation is great! I purchased this foundation in shade 4.1 from Sephora and paid $44.10. Some may consider this foundation to be a bit pricey but I feel that it's worth every penny. I applied this foundation at about 8:30 a.m. and did not return home until about 10:00 o'clock p.m. When I returned home my face was still flawless! This foundation goes on smoothly and blends in perfectly. It has medium-buildable coverage with a natural finish. In comparison to M.A.C. Pro Longwear foundation, Smashbox takes the lead in my book. I have had problems with M.A.C.'s Pro Longwear foundation matching my skintone but Smashbox matches perfectly! I am giving this foundation 4 1/2 stars! Let me know how this foundation works for you beauties!
