My thought


i love this foundation and its my 6th or 7th bottle of this i do use other foundation but can't leave this..got a permanent place in my makeup collection..this was my first liquid foundation before this i used to have cake foundations..i had this fear that liquid foundations won't suit me as my skin is sensitive and will appear cakey on me but then i came across this one when i swatched it felt so light weight that i decided to give it a try.

i have a combination skin and my complexion is light to medium.i have got this foundation in 03 which matches my skin tone.foundation comes in a transparent plastic bottle with a nozzle pump to squeeze out the product the bottle contains 30ml of the product.i like the packing its simple and perfect.

the formula is very light weight it blends effortlessly and gives a perfect smooth and dewy finish, i always love the glowing effect i get whenever i wear this foundation.gives light to medium coverage but you can always build it up for more coverage, this being so light weight doesn't appear cakey or blotchy and doesn't break out.most of the foundations feel heavy on skin when layered for the coverage but its not the case with this one.it completely gets absorbed in the skin and keep it hydrated for hours.the staying power is also very good it lasts upto 8 hours.
i cant put my finger on the scent of the foundation but whatever it is i don't like it.

the foundation contains marula oil which is well known for its skin hydrating benefits and it also help in anti-ageing.the SPF helps to protect from UV rays, most of the people think that the foundations that contain SPF give washed out effect in photographs when flash is used.SPF contains light reflecting particle that when flash is used give brightening effect.but i don't have any problem with this it does give some brightening effect when flash is used but i don't get completely washed out effect as most of the people complain with SPF foundation.i find this brightening effect good for the pictures :)
it also contain beeswax and Vitamin C .the beeswax acts as a barrier that helps to seal in moisture and helps to keep product texture consistent when used over time.Vitamin C helps to fight free radical damage and brightens skin, leaving it looking radiant

the foundation is a treat for the people having skin problems.


Pros

  • light weight
  • moiusturizing and hydrating
  • easily blenable
  • contains SPF 15
  • contains Marula oil and Vitamin E
  • good for everyday use
  • best for normal to dry skin

Cons

  • strange smell
otherwise i couldnt find anything to hate...



i will rate this 4.9/5
