Assalamualaikum and hello my lovely readers!

Anyways, I wanted to share my thoughts on this Sephora foundation. I used to like the finish and all and I finally bought the right shade to review. So yeah. Let's start!

REVIEW

I actually had story a bit about this foundation in my makeup stash foundation post. Pffft. Anyways, I finally bought my shade, it is in 25 Medium Beige. I bought no 30 before and it was too pink for my skintone so I gave it to my sister. I was in love with the finish and it was more of an "affordable" foundation. Even Revlon Colorstay is almost 80 bucks nowadays. Goddang pricey for cheapskate like me.

Finish: It's very natural on the skin, almost a skin finish. Says here on the bottle, "second skin technology". I did mention in my makeup stash that it's matte. I don't know why I said it's matte, it's totally not a matte foundation. #pahfail

Coverage: I would say it's a medium coverage and buildable.

Texture: The texture is quite thick, it's not runny at all.

Unblended


Blended. Still can see the skin underneath

As you can see in the photo below, the shade matches me perfectly but I don't know why in real life it looks a bit darker. Maybe aku tak biasa beli foundation yang almost lebih kurang dengan my skintone kot? But maybe I will buy the lighter shade if I ever decided to repurchase it... Ya know


I used 1 pump on the left side of my face (your right side)


Baked my undereyes and muh chin


Tadaaa! Of course I have posted this makeup look! Weee, click here

So I bought this foundation together with the Benefit Cheekathon online, using the 10% off coupon. It was retailed at RM69 at that time, so I got it at around RM62.10. But then recently I checked Sephora Malaysia website again and I don't know why it was retailed at RM78. I don't know if they have changed the price and whatnot in store but just to be sure, you guys better check in store dulu just in case the Sephora website bangang ke apa. But it is still considered an "affordable foundation" because it is less than RM100. So that's pretty good.

BUT, BUT, even though it's in the "affordable" range, this foundation only has 25ml of product!!!! It's not even an ounce!!! WHY SEPHORA WHY???? Y SO STINGY ONE???? WHERE'S THE REST OF IT??? WHERE DID THE 5ML GO????

This foundation does not last that long on me because I have oily skin. I used pretty much the same skincare stuff but it still melted. I'd say I get around 5 hours wear. Even 3rd hour mark pon dah oily dah. I won't use this foundation kalau aku nak keluar lama. I can see myself using this foundation in photos because it looks so flawless, since it has skin finish ya know? It's super gorgeous. If I wanted more of a natural finish, I would only use 1 pump but if I wanted more coverage, I would use 2 pumps. I did try to build it up and it builds up nicely because it is kind of a "dewy" foundation so it blends well. Okay?

p/s: I didn't put on any primers, I just use the Nivea Post Shave Balm. Usually with that, my makeup tends to stay longer but maybe this foundation just don't last long but I don't know. :/

I don't really mind that it's not long lasting because I am using this foundation only if I play play around with my makeup. For everyday, I would use what's good on my skin and last long. I would say that it has almost same finish as the Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum with more coverage? Like I said, finish, bukan texture ya.

Pros
Looks so natural on the skin
Easy to blend in
Tip top packaging (looks high end, glass bottle and stuff)

Cons
Product contained less than an ounce
Not long-lasting enough on my skin

Final thoughts: To be honest, I fricking love this foundation because it looks so damn natural but with more coverage ya know? I really love it. If it lasts longer, aku rasa aku pakai foundation ni pon cukup because it's "affordable" and ahh just so pretty! I think this foundation is more suitable for normal to dry peeps. I think you can make it last longer by adding primer ke maybe a setting spray ke or just set them properly with loose powder. Okay?

Rating: ★★



So yeah. I hope you guys find this helpful in any way.

Thank you for reading!
