I’ve been searching for a nice foundation that will suit my sensitive acne prone skin. I prefer it light weight but still has the coverage that could conceal acne/scars effectively. I’ve tried lots of BB creams but they just doesn’t do justice on my skin and the most thing I hate is it leaves white cast on my face which is really a No-no >_<
Finally, the search is finally over!! Cuz, I’ve found my Holy Grail Foundation:
What it claims?
· Provides Smooth and Finish look
· Buildable coverage
· Allows foundation to sit naturally on the skin
My Reviews:
· Able to even out skin tone perfectly
· Definitely buildable, but will not look like you have piled a juke despite several coverage
· Not able to conceal cystic acnes (concealers is still needed)
· Provides a natural matte finish
· Does NOT experience any allergies or discomfort, breakouts etc( I have sensitive acne prone and been using this foundie for straight 3 weeks)
· No white cast or pale looking skin; just healthy natural skin finish
· Does not clog pores
· Might be a bit expensive but I think this bottle could last me a long time
(Click for larger view)
Recommend & Buy Again?
· Doubles Yes! I recommend to people who are sick of heavy foundation (your skin needs to breathe!) as this is really a light foundation but has the ability to even out skintone and doesn’t clog pores.
I love this foundation as well! :D I haven't used it for awhile though but I do love it a lot!
ReplyDeleteThis makes your skin look really flawless!
ReplyDeleteIt looks great on you! Never tried this one so thanks for the review~ ^_^
ReplyDeleteYou're so pretty! Does it get oily after a few hours? It seems pretty good! ^_^
ReplyDeleteAs long as I set it up with finishing powder it doesn't oil up at all or maybe just bcuz' I'm always on A/C, hehe~ ^_^~
Deletehey! btw, my current boss used to work for Shu Uemura! xD
ReplyDeleteWOW, i luv the finish look it has on your skin...your skin look absolutely amazing and flawless~~~this is the first time i read review of this foundation..so good to know nad keep my options open
ReplyDeleteJessy

ReplyDeleteThe foundation sounds really good :)
Nice Review

ReplyDeletecongratualtions on finding HG foundation! it is really rare to come by,right?
i would pay more on my foundation if i am convinced something really works for me.
i wanna try this next time i go foundation shopping.
thanks for sharing! :)

ReplyDeleteI have a giveaway ongoing right now. It includes products from Benefit, Clarins, and Bath & Body. Hope you could join! http://www.lovingsunshine.com/2012/03/giveaway-flair-with-summer.html
You look cute! I like light consistency foundation with coverage as well. Lately I'm using cream foundation na full coverage.
ReplyDeleteBecause I only have to apply a very very thin layer and thin layer prevents makeup from looking too cakey because you don't have to slather on a lot of it.
you're so cute in the pics! haha anyway, i think it's great that it provides natural matte finish! I don't like foundation that gives oily finish :-/
ReplyDeletethanks for the review! your skin looks flawless!! ^^ how much was it? :) xxx
ReplyDeleteI bought it around $50 =)
DeleteThis foundation looks so natural on flawless on you :)
ReplyDeleteI definitely want to try this foundation now!
How much did you pay for this foundation? I love how it looks on you!
ReplyDeleteI bought it around $50..^_^~
DeleteThanks so much for the review. I have a mild acne problem too so I know how it feels to search for a foundation that works with acne not against it. I think I will have to add this to my list to things to try.

ooh i hard many good things about this foundation! but it's little hard to get shu uemura products now :(
ReplyDeleteOoh this looks so good on you! Have you tried Kanebo Liquid Finish? If you have, how do the two compare?
ReplyDeleteHi Fifi, I haven't tried the Kanebo Liquid foundation so really can't comment on that one. But so far, this foundation is the BEST I've tried ever..^_^~
DeleteFinally!! A useful review of this foundation! I've been wanting to try this one since I love my Illuminating Shu Uemura foundation so much and I think I'm definitely going to give it a try now! The foundation looks beautiful on you :)
ReplyDeleteooh I always been curious with Shu Uemura face architect, now you makes me want to buy it even more ;)

Thanks for the review! This looks like a great, lightweight foundation, especially now that the weather is starting to get warmer. It looks very natural on you :) I haven't tried any of Shu Uemura's face products before; I'll have to see if they sell the foundations at Sephora.
ReplyDeleteP.S. I don't know if you live in the US, but I'm holding a giveaway for a Le Edge Exfoliating Tool, hope you'll check it out here!
Looks great on you! I've been wanting to try this out.
ReplyDeleteAyan po ba talaga ang mga recent pics mo Ms. Janet? Bakit wala naman akong makitang acnes sa pics mo? Or is it because natatakpan ng makeup na inaapply mo? =)
ReplyDeleteyes, this foundation and nobara cream concealer does the trick =)
DeleteI've heard really good things about this foundation! It does look really lightweight and it looks really natural on your skin. Thanks for the review!
ReplyDeleteGreat review! The foundation looks really natural on you :)
ReplyDeletethe color looks really nice. great to hear it doesn't clog pores. sounds like the perfect foundation for spring which is approaching or summer! cool blog, keep in touch <3
