THREE Complete Harmony Foundation Review

81% naturally derived ingredients for this foundation according to their official site. I might've written a review on this already, but I want to write an update on it again! This is probably one of my fav foundations because of how natural it looks on my skin and doesn't cake over my skin like many other foundations I've tried. I am a NC20 and have combination skin where my T zone can get oily. This foundation's coverage is medium and buildable. Less is more for this foundation. I first tried this foundation in Hong Kong and got it in SOGO. It was very humid there and this foundation held up really well under those conditions. I think the finish might look even better if I mix it with a little moisturizer. I got matched to color 202. I was using FENTY beauty foundation which is great, but not as good as this THREE foundation. Fenty is definitely on the thicker and heavier side. My only complaint is the not so convenient packaging. I dip a q tip in it and swirl it around in order to mix it before applying it onto my face. I don't double dip and it'll be annoying to do it while traveling. I tried THREE Angelic Symbiosis Foundation because of my pleasant experience with this foundation; however, I disliked it and threw it away after a few uses. It looked so cakey and heavy on my face.

"SPF35/PA+++　UV absorber-free
Free from parabens, synthetic perfumes, organic dyes, animal-derived ingredients, and mineral oils.

This foundation stretches out like a yogini while its moisture adds to the skin’s firmness.
The creamy liquid foundation makes its debut, keeping makeup on any expressive face.
Covering up the signs of aging that bother you, it blends well with the skin to bring out a firm, natural finish all day.
The moisture-rich texture, like a skin care product, allows you to reapply your makeup as much as you like.
Controlling the coverage strength, it completes the beauty of “polished, bare skin” instead of “skin covered with makeup.”
Utilizing the light reflected off clear pearls, it creates airy ageless expressions." - Copied from THREE's website.

FENTY BEAUTY Pro Filt'r Soft Matte Longwear Foundation Review

I don't normally go crazy over celebrity products, but I was interested after reading the reviews and learning about the hype. I have combination skin and I can get dry very easily depending on the weather. I also can get oily easily which makes it a bit hard to find the right foundation! I am NC 20 normally, and I went with the shade 190. The shade seems okay until I am under natural light and it looks bit darker and orange-ish from oxidation. It seems like I will have to get a lighter shade. The texture is creamy and MAKE SURE YOU SHAKE IT WELL. I've read that this is crucial if you want your foundation to blend well from the reviews on Sephora. The coverage is medium for sure. It doesn't have a scent, so that's another plus. 

Pro:

- A large variety of colors

- Medium coverage

- Matte

- Sleek bottle design

- Nice pump bottle

Con:

- Oxidizes easily

- Requires good blending for the most natural look

 Redness and veins

Viola... I didn't blend it well, but this is only from one layer.

Dior Airflash Foundation Review

I was a bit hesitant to pick this one up because I am not a fan of spraying anything onto my face. I have a spray on sunscreen and hated it because it was really messy. 

 

What it claims: "Get a runway-ready look with this innovative mist foundation inspired by the airbrushing techniques used backstage at fashion shows. The unique micro-diffusion system delivers a fine mist of foundation to provide a soft, velvety complexion. Customize your coverage by choosing to apply straight from the can for a lighter finish, or with a Kabuki brush for fuller coverage. Mother of pearl pigments even skin tone and diminish the appearance of skin irregularities and fine lines, leaving your skin glowing with optimal radiance." - Sephora's website

Pros: 

- Large range of colors

- Nice finish

Cons: 

- Pricey for what you get $62 dollars

- Messy

- You can't get the remaining product out easily

- Not the best for traveling

- You've to be careful and make sure to NOT get any on your hair and etc

Personally I didn't like this foundation. I am a NC 20 and was matched with 100 Ivory and Linen. I don't think I'd repurchase this. I hate the mess and it isn't really worth the price you pay. I didn't really see an airbrushed finish as well. I have combination skin and this didn't make my skin feel greasy or dry. I truly enjoyed some of their skin care products and foundations, but not this one.

BURBERRY Cashmere Soft Matte Foundation review

I got the shade called "Ochre Nude No. 12" and I am usually a NC20 - NC25 during the summer. I purchased this simply because it had high reviews, and because it has NO paraben, sulfates and phthalates. This foundation's shade was a bit too light for me, but the texture was smooth and controlled my oily skin pretty well. The coverage is medium to high and build-able. I liked the coverage it provided and the texture of this foundation for my combination skin. I just needed a slightly darker shade. I didn't detect any scent, which is another plus. The staying power was pretty good, but definitely better with a good setting powder. Lastly, it offers SPF 20 and the box tells you to reapply it every few hours. SPF 20 is suffice for daily wear, however you will probably need to wear something stronger underneath if you plan to be out in the sun for awhile. This also didn't feel heavy on my face. Overall, a pretty good foundation from my perspective. This is priced at $52 for 1oz.
