Review of Make Up For Ever Mat Velvet PLUS Matifying Foundation by deadonarrivals
This foundation is pretty good, I like it. I'm oily with some dry patches on my jaw line & chin from applying treatments to my occasional cystic acne marks. I'm typically very oily all over by midday and need to blot regardless of the foundation type. I absolutely hated MUFE HD for my skin which made it even more oily. I'm NC40 winter NC42 summer and found a good match with #55 in MUFE Mat Velvet. The finish is matte and appeared a bit dry around my chin but by moisturizing first, it made that area look better. After 3 hours of wear, I started to get a little oily in my forehead but not too bad and the rest of my face was nice and oil free! The coverage is medium and requires layering to cover any post acne marks. I find this foundation to be wonderful at layering because it doesn't dry so fast. I find with this foundation, I only need 3 very tiny dots to cover my face for medium coverage which is pretty impressive. I also love that fact that because I only need such little product, the packaging is amazing because it allows only a pinpoint amount to squeeze out of the tube. I really have no negative comments so far about this foundation. I do not recommend this for normal to dry skin types. I will update if this causes any reaction but so far, so good! Very happy and I look forward to using this more in the summer for when I'm so oily, I look like I can fry a steak on my face.
