| FIT ME® SHINE-FREE FOUNDATION 110 Porcelain |
I do have to say that I bought this in about a shade too light by accident (apparently I have tanned a little, who knew?) so shade wise it's a little off, but that problem is easily fixed.
They say: Fresh gel foundation blends to a flawless matte finish. Lightweight powders in the anti-shine core instantly dissolve excess oil.
What I think after two days of use: It's not bad, but I do have some things I don't like. First, the foundation itself is a light - medium coverage (although buildable without getting cakey), and glides on nicely. I used my Sigma F80 the first time to blend it out, and then the next day I used my Real Techniques foundation brush (the one in the Core Collection), and both work quite well to blend out without losing product and having to put more on. What I found that I don't like is that although it's not cakey, it does like to stick to tiny dry patches on my skin (usually where blemishes were) and sits on the dry skin and won't blend out. The other thing I've found is that it doesn't seem to live up to it's shine-free name without me having put any shine powder on afterwards. Maybe this is a fault of my own, but unless I put powder on, in a couple of hours (less time than if I were to use powder or even a different foundation), my entire face is shiny! And I don't even have that oily of skin! I've heard really good reviews online from people saying that their skin was shine-free all day, and for me, the was so not the case. I obviously have to try it for a few more days, and actually wear it out (WaWa doesn't count), but my first impression isn't all that great.
★★★☆ ☆
Three out of Five stars for first impressions, hopefully that get's better but who knows.
