Liquid Foundations...First Impression!
I've really loved using my Bare Minerals Original Powder Foundation but I've been using it every day for the last 9 years and I've really been wanting to love a new liquid foundation. I find that my powder foundation wears away and is quite oily throughout the day, so I've been trialling new foundations over the past month.
Verdict: This provides great coverage and very little is needed, it's great for covering up my acne but doesn't last all day.
Bare Minerals Bare Pro: Of course, being a lover of Bare Minerals it was my first port of call. They have a huge range of colours which is great for the entire population of skin tones.
Verdict: I love the coverage but I hate how long it takes to set.
The Body Shop Fresh Nude Foundation: The Body Shop is known for being good value for money so I thought it was worth a try. I received a sample by a very nice member of staff and was excited to try it out.
Verdict: The shade matches well but the product is very thin, watery and has a very light coverage.
Senegence MakeSense Foundation: I sell this foundation with my business, Hannah's Lips UK, so I wanted to try it too! It's meant to be non-smearing, long-lasting coverage that contains are amazing SenePlex Complex.
Verdict: Great buildable coverage and long lasting but difficult to blend initially.
Senegence Advanced Anti-Ageing Foundation: Again, as I had it available to me, I thought I would try it while I was there. With a higher concentration of SenePlex Complex, it's more anti-ageing than MakeSense.
Verdict: I think the anti-ageing factor is great but the coverage is not as full as needed for my acne (active and scarring) and I was put off by the smell, very almond based.
So I think I've found a foundation that I love but it will take a few more attempts at using it to truly get a feel. Are there any liquid foundations you would recommend?
I only use liquid foundations! ever since I started using them two years ago I've never looked back. The Bare Essentials is sooo good.
ReplyDeleteI have to admit, I much prefer how long they last!
