REVIEW: MAKEUP FOREVER PROFESSIONAL PRO FINISH MULTI-USE POWDER FOUNDATION

Makeup Forever Professional is a French makeup brand specifically at Paris that is considered one of top makeup brands worldwide. I personally have been using a few products from this brand and I always recommend my customers to go for this brand as well. In this post I shall review one of my most used makeup product from Makeup Forever which is Pro FINish Multi-use powder foundation.

According to Makeup Forever Professional Website: “With its transforming texture, PRO FINISH is the 1st multi-use powder foundation that allows you to fully customize your finish and coverage level. Formulated with exclusive bio-mimetic coated pigments, its breakthrough formula can be used wet or dry”.  I have been using this powder for many years and the shade I use is 115 Pink Ivory. These are results that I found from using this product:

a)    Medium Coverage: this foundation powder gives a good coverage for the face as it covers up blemishes, dis-colorations and oiliness of skin. It is suitable for all skin types and has many shades that are suitable for each skin type.

b)    Long-lasting: this foundation powder lasts for almost 3-4 hours without using setting spray.

c)    Texture: this foundations texture tends to be smooth and minimum amount is required to cover up the whole face. Be careful as high excess amount of this powder foundation will lead to a cakey face.

d)   Multi-use: there are two methods to apply this powder foundation: one is by using the sponge given with the foundation and dapping it gently onto the skin. Another way is by using a wet sponge, damping it into the texture and blending it into the skin for a natural sheer result.

Even though this powder foundation tend to have great qualities, it also a few drawbacks such as:

1-   Price: This powder foundation is on a pricey side compared to other powder foundations as it costs about $44.67 (O.R 17.00).

2-   Skin Sensitivity: for sensitive skin I don’t recommend to using it on daily basis as it makes the skin very dry.

That’s all I could say about this powder foundation I really love this powder foundation and I strongly recommend using it for special occasions as it looks very good in photography. I hope you all enjoyed reading this post please let me know if you would like to see any other reviews on other products.   

Review: Urban Decay Naked Skin Foundation

Hello Makeup lovers how are you all doing? I hope you are all doing great and having a wonderful day. I extremely apologize for not being able to post any topic recently because I was busy with my tests. Today’s topic is a makeup review on the Naked Foundation from Urban Decay. As it is mentioned in Urban Decay website about this foundation: “Coverage without compromise. Our weightless formula blurs imperfections for a flawless finish that feels invisible, but looks professionally retouched”.

I’ve used this foundation for several times, as I bought the lightest shade no 0.5 for fair and pink undertone skin. I believe that this foundation is considered to be one of the most favourite foundations ever as I am fully satisfied with the results:

-          It is absolutely weightless: the foundation gives a natural finishing touch, makes the face look professionally retouched, and does not make the face look cakey.

-         Full coverage: the foundation covers up all the blemishes, dark circles and any dis-coloration. Every time I apply this foundation I tend to skip applying concealer since it already does a great job in covering up all the imperfections.

-         Long lasting: without the use of setting spray or long lasting primers, this foundation tends to last for more than 4 hours as I personally have used for almost 6 hours and the results are same.

-         Easy applicator: the foundation comes with a pump which makes it easier to decide on the needed amount. Moreover it only requires a minimum amount to apply because the liquid tends to be easily blend able and gradually builds up all around the face.

It is clear that this foundation is worth buying since it has many great benefits and it is suitable for all skin types. The only downside I have to mention is the smell of the foundation. Even though it remains for a very short amount of time however it is a bit irritating. Nevertheless I still adore this foundation. You can find it in Sephora or in Urban Decay website (www.urbandecay.com) as it is sold for $39.00 (O.R 15.00). I hope you all enjoyed reading this post let me know if you have any extra information regarding this foundation.
