The package of this foundation looks so simple and sleek. I really like its pump, it makes easy to use.
Since it was a gift, the shade was a bit lighter on my skin- It didn't match my skin perfectly but still okay.
This foundation is a very light weight and fresh feeling, however, I found it leaves a little cakey look in the beginning and blends into skin later on. When i used tiny bit, it still covered red spots completely. It usually takes double amount of other foundations so I would say this HD foundation does good job on covering blemishes and red spots with small amount.
Pros:
- Great coverage
- Nice package
- Usable pump on a bottle
- Light weight
- Looks great and flawless on-screen
- Multiple shades you can choose from
- Pricey
- I could see it stays in lines and wrinkles.
- Looks a bit, tiny bit cakey in real life.

I read often in people's reviews that this foundation doesn't look all that natural in person but photographs beautifully. I've always been curious about it, I think I'm going to get sample x
ReplyDeleteOh yeah I really recommend using a sample before buying the full-size one.I definitely agree with those who said looks good on-screen. It makes your skin look flawless and even toned but I think it's only made for photographs.. Not sure about it in person since it goes into every single lines and cracks and make it look cakey. xx
DeleteNow this looks really nice in the photos as to me it looks really light, I presume they do a good shade range? It is a shame that you found it cakey though as there is nothing worse than buying a new foundation only to find it cakes up on your skin.

It does have good shade range since there's more lighter and darker shades you can choose from. I know.. I'm glad it was a gift and didn't 'purchase' it on my own.xx
DeleteThis is by far one of my favorites !

It is just not for me I guess, but I'm glad it works well for you Betzy! :)
DeleteI tried a sample of this in the lightest shade and I was impressed with the color, but I didn't enjoy anything else about it. Great review :)
ReplyDeleteSame here. I really like how it looks on pictures though!
DeleteI soooooo want this very badly! It looks like such an amazing foundation, and I think this shade would be perfect. I always do this haha.. but how do you get those red dashed boxes?! Your blog is incredible.. seriously my favourite blog ever to look at and read! xxx

I read you are looking for foundation that suit your skin color and I really do think Make Up For Ever has some of shades you might enjoy!
DeleteSuch a compliment Gemma! Thank you so much love!xxx
I've tried this before and had the same outcome. For me, it just turned out way too cakey.
ReplyDeleteew We don't want anything that make us look caked up! I liked its coverage though x
DeleteI guess it was created just to be used in photography, not so much for everyday wear and that's too bad considering how great the coverage sounds : / Too pricey for me, I'm sticking to my beloved BBs for now. Thanks for the review though Grace ^^ xx
ReplyDeleteI know, I am sticking with my No7 Tinted moisturizer and Maybelline Foundation! You are very welcome Lau xxxx
DeleteI was considering to try this before I read your review but by the sounds of it, its not for me as I sometimes go with no foundation to avoid the cakey look. Thank you! X
ReplyDeletePS feel free to take a look at my blog: http://savagegem.wordpress.com/
Oh yeah if you can't stand cakey look, you definitely don't want to get this..
DeleteA lot of makeup artists have said that Make Up For Ever's HD line is really just meant for photography and film, which is a bit of a shame...
