I'm finally back!! Thank you guys so much for your patience with me getting my Macbook problems sorted out. Now for the good stuff; this may seem dramatic, but this is 100% THE best foundation that I have ever used. My skin is acne prone, sensitive, and dry. It is a hot damn mess, honestly, but that’s a post for another day! I’m constantly on the hunt for a new foundation. I’m always looking for the best of the best for my skin type. I have tried dozens of foundations. Some of them I loved, some I loathed, and then there was this. I always wondered if it was actually worth the hype. $62 dollars for foundation seems so absolutely outrageous to me. . .still after all this time it is outrageous to me, but depending on your skin type this foundation is magical.
I have redness and mild scarring on my cheeks from acne. It’s safe to say that there are very few foundations that I have tried that don’t break me out. I was contemplating if I should try this after reading reviews about how it is great for people with dry skin. I went to Sephora, matched my tone (I wear a 3.5) and asked for a sample. After one day I knew I had fallen in love. You know that saying champagne taste on a beer budget? Well honey, that saying could not be more true when it comes to my love for this foundation.
It’s described on Sephora’s website like so, “this award-winning foundation is formulated with micro-fil technology, producing a low-density product that pairs high-impact pigments with weightless texture. Inspired by the silk shantung worn by kings and emperors, this foundation glides seamlessly onto the skin leaving a finish that’s reminiscent of charmeuse silk.” <- Like okay, if that doesn’t intrigue you to at least sample this foundation I’m not sure what will.
I swear by this stuff. Truly, and honestly. I am so extremely dry that almost every “dewy” foundation that I try clings to my dry spots. This is the only foundation I’ve tried that does the opposite. I feel like some how it hydrates my face without making me look wet. The next time you go to the Sephora near you, do yourself a favor and ask for a sample.
xx,
Seanmarie
