True Match Foundation

Lesson one I learnt from writing this post: always write the first draft of a post in Word. Lesson two: don't write it at 9pm the evening before you want to post it.

So annoyingly I lost a mahoosive, completely finished and edited post I had written about this product, but thanks to blogger I lost it all in the scheduling process. But that is mostly my fault so I'll just have to start again.

I have been searching for a foundation that fits the specification that I have in my head since forever, it has been rather difficult to do so as I am such a tight ass when it comes to spending money on foundation as I always see it as such a costly product for something that I don't use every day. However due to this I think I have made it harder for myself to find the foundation that I am looking for. Anyway all this is relevant because I have found the foundation that fits!

I have read so many rave reviews about this foundation over the couple of years that I have been a part of the blogging world, and finally pushed myself to just try it out. Now I wish I'd done so earlier so that I could've stopped myself from wasting money on other disappointing products!

The thing that initially drew me to this particular product is the shade range. It is split firstly into cool, neutral and warm and then into further shades of these base tones. I personally am shade C1- rose ivory, the lightest shade, which matches me perfectly for my natural skin colour. I loved that I could pick a 'cool' toned foundation as I find a lot of high street foundations are quite yellow/warm toned and therefore don't match me at all.

Now the part that made this product for me was the formula. It's light therefore doesn't feel too 'caked on' when you're wearing it, blends really nicely and has a satin finish that isn't too matte but also isn't dewy. It really just looks like skin and that's all I need. I would say it has a medium coverage but is buildable so it can be heavier if you have particularly pesky blemishes or uneven skin tone.  

I am content now that I have a foundation I can rely on.
