REVIEW
So as you already know, I bought these foundations specifically for my clients. Most reviews mentioned that they look so good on camera and it didn't irritate my eyes when my MUA applied this on me. Some foundations made me teary and it's not a good look. Huhu.
But of course I have to try them out myself because people really like this foundation on camera and I'm like betul ka cantik depan camera ni... Kan? So I gave it a try, I wore it for few days to work.
First impression: It's quite liquidy, some people said it's thick but maybe the weather's here made it liquidy? I don't know man. LOL. It has a scent, quite faint, nothing significant. Didn't bother me at all. It has a natural skin finish, I personally love skin finish foundations but on my oily combination skin is a bit ugh but if I set muh face should be ok tho
So they don't really claimed that they are a mattifying, long-lasting foundation. They just marketed it for the film and TV industry, basically on camera lah. Now we are going towards UHD, HD is like so million years ago now.
I was using the Natural Being Manuka Honey Day Cream (Oily/Normal) and gurrrr, this moisturizer is quite heavy for daytime... My face jadi disco ball in few mins... Imagine me using this underneath makeup... Holy frack. It was bad. I was cursing through out the day and I'm like "membazir duit je beli ni" but then I changed moisturizer because I knew I cannot use the Natural Being Day Cream under my makeup.
So I changed my routine. Okay, this was my skincare routine when I used the foundation. I use my usual Nutox Astringent Toner, then my Bio-Essence Gold Water with Paula's Choice RESIST 10% Niacinamide Booster, Safi Rania Gold Eye Contour Cream, Paula's Choice RESIST Super Light Wrinkle Defense SPF30.
Onto the next step, makeup stuff. I used Urban Decay B6 Prep Spray, then I applied Laura Mercier Foundation Primer (Original) and then baru apply this foundation. I used it with my round kabuki brush (from BH Cosmetics Sculpt & Blend set) and it went on so smoothly and I used only one pump for my whole face. Yes, it's quite sheer but it still evens out my skintone and the finish is just... AHHH-MAYYYY-ZINGGGGG. I really really love the natural skin finish. Then of course I set my face with Revlon Loose Powder and I used Urban Decay Deslick Setting Spray to set and lastly for my T-zone and anywhere oily on my face, I tepek with the Kiss Me Heroine Make Powder.
My actual shade is 120 (Y245 Soft Sand) but since I'm using them for my clients I bought two shades, 117 (Y225 Marble) and 170 (Y435 Caramel). So if I wanted to use this foundation, I used one pump of the 117 and a bit of the 170, like very little amount then I mixed them at the back of my hand and put em on muh face and use the brush to blend everything, holy crap they are super easy to blend. It is buildable since the formula is a bit dewy.
I tried using my Beauty Blender but I personally think that the Beauty Blender sucks up a lot of the foundation, I know BBs aren't supposed to do that but the foundation became more sheer if I used BB so yeah if you wanted more coverage, go with a kabuki brush.
So I got the chance to try this foundation the whole day, if you know what I mean. I only try out foundations the whole day if I can't pray, I mean hari biasa if I applied my foundation at 6am and pray paling lambat pon 3.30pm so dapat lah 8 hours and a half and that's good enough coz let's be real. Nobody wears foundation for more than 12 hours kan. So yeah. Hahaha. I also wanted to point out that I use a great mattifying powder, if you haven't read the Kiss Me Heroine Make Smooth Cover Powder Clear Mineral review, why won't you? Click here okay? Gurrr come on!
I don't want to perasan lah, but masa I used the foundation, colleagues complimented that I looked different and there was one colleague asked me "hey Pah, you're using different foundation is it?" I know she wanted to puji me but in a very cryptic way. LOL. Anyways, I noticed my face was really flawless that day and I was like it must be the Laura Mercier Foundation Primer jugak nih! Ughhh I love that primer. Eh ni citer pasal foundation lah. Okay and since I set my face with macam-macam, it stayed all day and not melting at all lah!
Then the next day, I used it again (instagram photo here) and again, it stayed all day. But but, there's nothing I can do with my oily T-zone so yeah. I need to blot lah through out the day but I get good 5 hours before I have to blot my nose. So yeah. Amazing kan? And and and the most important part is when I blot my face, usually there's like a patch of foundation melekat on tissues or blotting paper but this foundation surprisingly no transfers. Usually if I use this Kiss Me mattifying powder, it tends to make my foundation (especially mattifying foundation) goes patchy if I blot my face with tissue.
Again, this looks beautiful in photos so yeah. I looked flawless kan? *perasan*
After 8 hours, of course foundation around my nose mesti hilang punya. I don't mind that, it's always an issue for me. Haha. But still, as you can see in the photo, still flaweless as fudge huh?
Okay now. I know this foundation is pricey as fudge. I'm not gonna force you guys to buy it but if you can afford it, try it. I don't recommend this foundation to oily skin peeps, you can use this foundation of course but just make sure you set it with loose powder or any type of powder that you always use. This foundation retails at RM195 and it has the usual foundation size which is 30ml / 1oz. It is one of the priciest foundation I have in my collection. Well, they're for my clients so yeah. But I did use my Black Card 10% so... 20 bucks off is good enough. LOL.
Okay, here's some photos of my clients that I used the foundation on. I'm sorry I'm lazy to paste the photos here. LOL:-
