still not for me
I had an earlier review on 09 - honey beige which is a caramel and this 07 - vanilla beige is still not the right color for NC 25 - 30. this is a lighter shade and made it look ashy on me. But combined with the honey beige made the perfect shade for me. it is only then i appreciate the formula. after wearing it for two days there is nothing obvious since effects are normally apparent after long use. but what i noticed is my large pores are not prominent, i do not know if it is the artis brush that i used or because i just blended it a lot. It gives dewy or glowing effect but it is not tacky, i touched my face after blending and it is totally dry and sort of powdery. It took me two layers to really give the cover I want but one layer is enough if one do not have much blemishes to hide. will i repurchase? nope, i will just finish these two tubes and continue my search for the best.
just the formula
I am an NC 30 but sometimes NC 25, 09-Honey Beige is tooooooooooooo caramel for me!!! it is my fault that i did not visit the by terry website to read the description of the shades, may be it will be helpful if there is a close to accurate "shade finder" to avoid frustrated customer like me. not talking about the wrong shade, the formula is light not mousse type, it is a little runny but do not be deceived by this cause it dries fast and although it looks dewy it is not tacky.
This became my go to foundation and became one of my most favorites!
Brianna Stanka raved about this foundation and I had to check it out since I am a foundation-holic (if there's a word). I bought this in Vanilla Beige but the shade is a tad darker and the lighter ones are too light. I called Beautylish and they sent me a few samples, they were nice! I'm thinking I should get #3 to lighten up the color. So far I am loving how this feels on my skin, looks very natural, not so well on my T-Zone since I have normal oily combination skin. After blotting this works.
