I have gone through many foundations, and I've always had trouble finding
the right shade foundation, with the right consistency and coverage, but at the
moment I have 4 favourites.
Yet recently I found my holy grail foundation... for £2.50! You can imagine
how happy I was.
I now use W7 Hi Definition Camera Ready Foundation in Buff. This foundation
is my go-to foundation, it's got a fantastic coverage, it sets really well and
it doesn't slip. It's also light enough to wear in the summer, however this
foundation does have problems there, as the shade matches my un-tanned skin to
a tee when I get a slight tan I really have to darken my face with bronzer to
match it to the rest of my body.
Seeing as how I started with my favourite, I'll go down my list.
My next personal favourite is L'Oreal Paris Lumi Magique Light Infusing
Foundation in Rose Porcelain. This foundation is lovely to wear, it's perfect
for when I have a tan, and matches the slight pink undertones I have, without
overwhelming the natural tone of my skin. The coverage is brilliant, and can be
built up easily. This foundation cost me 9 euros in Munich, I'm not sure what
that is in pounds sterling, but it was still affordable. I personally love this
foundation, again, it's light enough to wear during summer, and sets lovely.
The first foundation that I ever wore was Natural Collection Colour
Foundation in Porcelain, and I recently started using it again. As it is a mineral foundation, it is super light,
buff-able and lovely to wear. However the coverage isn't the best, and it's very
easy to get tide marks with this foundation. Before I wear it I have to make
sure that I've moisturised well and put a decent primer on otherwise I look
very oily, very quickly. It has quite a matte finish, and so it doesn't really
need setting, but I make sure I powder the areas that have a potential to get
oily - just in case.
My last but not least is my Collection 2000 colour Match Foundation in
Natural 4. This is my 'fake tanned' foundation, so naturally it's darker. This
foundation is great to wear, and gives a really good, natural finish with
fairly good coverage that is buildable if necessary. Unfortunately I don't fake
tan much anymore, so I don't have as many opportunities to wear it, but if I
could, I would. I'm very tempted to go and buy some in a lighter shade to wear
everyday.
