Full Coverage Foundation

I adore this foundation. I usually wear a zinc oxide type SPF (right now it's Sun Bum) and Full Coverage Foundation layers beautifully over it. The SPF does thin out the coverage a bit, but I typically apply this with a foundation brush and let it bake for a few minutes (if I have time) and then blend lightly. I use it more as a spot concealer than a full foundation. I've found that as …Read more

I gave it 4 stars on packaging because i wish there was a mirror. Other than that this is an amazing all in one product. You just have to make sure you know how to apply it. You can use it as a sheer coverage, or you can build it to full very easily and use as a concealer. First you will want to make sure you exfoliate and moisturize well. I use a flat buffing brush. I dampen the brush first and …Read more

I went into using this product expecting it to sort out my rosacea and discoloured skin. I ended up looking like a cakey mess, with my skin still looking discoloured in places.

The biggest problem with this product is that it is terrible for dry skin like mine. It clung to all my dry patches, and actually showed up areas of dryness which I didn't know I had! All in all, I looked …Read more

I HATE this foundation a lot. I really really wanted to like it but I just couldnt...it just doesnt suit dry skin at alll....its goes on very blotchy and it highlights dry patches like theres no tomorrow. I have tried using everything to let it work and all types of application and still it looked like shit on my skin and everyone could tell I was wearing foundation and a thick one. As for the …Read more

This is my holy grail full coverage foundation, with that said, it takes time and practice to perfect it. YOU MUST USE A MOISTURIZER, PRIMER, then the foundation, THEN SETTING POWDER, THEN A SETTING SPRAY. This is the order I use and it works wonders for me, no shine, no creasing. I use the Estee Lauder Matte Perfecting Primer because it cuts the shine that this foundation might give without …Read more

This is one of those foundations your face cannot handle on a daily basis. It's very thick and heavy, which is good in some instances. This foundation is perfect for the stage (pageant girls, dancers, etc). It creates a flawless and perfect face, but besides wearing it on the stage, you won't catch this foundation on my face. It makes my face oh so oily!

Firstly I gave this a high packaging rating because I had no issue whatsoever with it; just basic foundation packaging.
As for the product - I hated it.
I so so so so so wanted to love it, I read so many great reviews and was excited to have an all in one product to cover my acne, extreme scaring and hyper pigmentation.
After watching several online tutorials I applied the product …Read more

I use the MAC tear drop sponge or MAC fdtn brush (does not come w any applicators), to apply this. It's time consuming to work it in thin layers which I suggest building it rather than one thick layer that will result in cake face & later will melt off ur face. I don't use w beauty blender coz it wastes my precious product more than w brush or flat sponge. I know coz I've tried …Read more

I think I may have found my HG foundation. I rarely give any reviews. However, I must say this foundation did not look cakey on me and provided me with a soft focus glow - almost natural looking skin.

My application routine: Moisturize!!! I use MAC stobe cream followed by Too Faced Primed and Poreless primer. I use my RT buffing brush to apply the foundation, then I just use my beauty …Read more

This foundation really gives a full coverage. If you have an acne problem, you gonna love it. I'm using it with an oil-free primer and transparent powder, otherwise it makes my t-zone shiny because it has an oily and creamy formula. In my opinion, this is more suitable for normal and dry skin types.
