This post is about a product that I regretted buying (too long for a title).
It was March 16 this year when I purchased this foundation in Landmark, Trinoma. I emptied my Cover Girl Clean Liquid Foundation and the Revlon Photoready I have was too dark for me. I hunt for a new one.
I notice this stand and from its Glam image I inquire for a liquid foundation.
I am actually going to buy the one in the pump bottle which has a shimmer finish but the SA was so persuasive and I was swayed to get this one.
I rarely use this foundation because I realized it was a little heavy and oily.
I used it everyday when I was in Cebu for seven days for a convention and after that I do not use it for everyday makeup.
After few months, April – May – June – July – August – September, the lid started to went off.
It was just in my vanity and I wonder why would the lid chip off.
The reasons why I regretted buying this are:
- The packaging – Yes it looks elegant and all but it’s not hygienic. I purchased a spatula for this to scoop the product because I just can’t dip my fingers, sponge, nor my brush here.
- The smell – Actually it’s the smell NOW. Maybe because it’s six months old already so I think I need to dispose it.
- Price – It’s around Php1,200 it’s expensive because Revlon Photoready costs around Php980 only.
- It feels heavy and greasy.
As for the positives when applied properly,
- Medium to Full Coverage
- Dewy Finish
Will I purchase again?
I do not think so. I prefer a foundation in a pump bottle or tube perhaps.
So that concludes my thoughts about this foundation.
This might not work for me but I am sure it does for some.
This post is not intended to vilify the foundation nor the brand I just want to share my grief and experience.
Please suggest a good foundation ladies. I need your opinion.
