Make Up For Ever Face & Body Liquid Make Up - Review

before i start, i want to note that i was NOT PAID to write this review. I simply think this is a great foundation that deserve its own space.

PRICE: $38 usd.

Location of Origin: FRANCE

Weight: 50 ml /1.69 Fl.Oz

description taken from SEPHORA.COM: The secret is all in this top selling formula. This waterproof, ultra-light, water based gel contains no emulsifiers and provides a totally natural, satin finish. Ideal for normal skin-types as well as for fine lines and large pores. Gives skin a uniform tone without accentuating imperfections. A makeup artist’s favorite.

INGREDIENT: You can view the ingredients listed in the photo above.This foundation is the newer formula that doesn’t contain mineral oil. I had the old formula in the past, and after using it for a few days my face broke out entirely. So i am actually very happy that they decided to change the formula and took out mineral oil.

SPF not included making this very photo friendly as well. However, if you do decide to wear this out daily, please be sure to wear your sun protection.

Package: The foundation comes in a sturdy glass bottle; available in 19 shades. The shade i have is #20 Ivory.

No pump dispenser making it a little difficult to get the right amount out. This can be a bothersome for many, but practice makes perfect! Use a light hand; I find that 2 nickle size is enough for my entire face.

SCENT: There is a heavy flowery, baby scent to this foundation, nothing too repulsive that does go away once you applied on your face.

a swatch of the product. Look how watery this foundation is. This is a very sheer and light coverage foundation. Although it can be layered on to achieve a medium to almost full coverage without looking heavy. No wonder why makeup artist LOVE using this foundation on their clients.

rubbed in and set. It looks extremely natural and feel so natural on. Honestly, it feels like there is nothing on my face. I love how this is waterproof and won’t stain my clothing or melt off my face. You definitely, will have a bit of shine by midday but you can blot it away without having to retouch. You can swim in this foundation. but i haven’t tried that yet.

MY HG FOUNDATION

I include a before and after picture below. Sowwie my face look so big and fat haha… =.=”

I moisturized and have SPF on in my before photo.

In natural lighting, you can see how well the foundation evened out my skin tone.

My skin type

dry/combination sensitive skin
large noticeable pores
acne scarring
blemishes
Eczema

I used one nickle size amount on my entire face then I go back and add extra coverage on my imperfections. Hence 2 nickle size amount is more than enough to give me the right amount of coverage i need. Be sure to shake really well before using.

I was thinking that i might purchase another bottle a shade or two darker just so i can use it to add a bit of color to my face. I think the amazing thing about this product is you can add layer upon layer and still look natural and not caked up.

This is a wonderful product to use for the summer. Going to a beach party, a pool party, now you can look your best without having your makeup running off your face! Yay!
