Review on the Max Factor Face Finity All Day Flawless 3 in 1 Foundation




Firstly what a long name for a foundation. It does what it says on the tin or in this case bottle. I haven't worn foundation in a long time because I haven't been able to find the right foundation for my skin. There either too oily, too thick, not the right skin tone, make me look cakey, dry to quick or just too expensive. But today I found the one! 

About a week ago my friend recommended this foundation after  she has been using it for a while so I popped down to my local boots and brought the Max Factor's Face Finity All Day Flawless 3 in 1 Foundation. I decided to try the Warm Almond 45 because it didn't want too pale that I look ill but I didn't really dark. This turned out to be the perfect colour. At first I was a little bit abrasiveness before using it as I wasn't sure if it would suit my skin type or it wouldn't feel right and I was okay with the products I was using already but after trying it I could never go back. It is amazing! I actually found a product what does what it says on the label. 

When applying it it was so light. It wasn't cakey, it didn't dry to fast and it suited by skin tone  and colour. I used a sponge to apply it and then touched up some of the areas with my Real Techniques Foundation brush, it made my skin look smooth and I didn't have any patchy areas. What amazes me about this product is that its a 3 in 1. Normally I wouldn't use a primer and before using this foundation I only used concealer so when they are all in one little bottle it was fantastic. I've noticed a difference in my skin after using this foundation and my pores are less visible. Furthermore, it has SPF 20 which is perfect for when abroad or its sunny and your out all day!

Depending on how much your willing to pay for a foundation you might think this pricey but for a 30ml bottle it cost £11.99. When I first looked at the price I thought it was a little pricey but after using it I don't regret it. You don't need to use a lot for a great coverage so it will last a while. 

What I love about this foundation is that its easy to apply, lasts all day and gives an amazing coverage. I have a lot of scars on my face from spots and have a few spots dotted around so it is perfect for covering them. When its applied you can hardly tell your wearing it. Its so light on your face and doesn't feel heavy or make your face look oily or dry. After wearing it all day it didn't dry out my skin and actually made it feel hydrated even after working in a hot kitchen all day.




It is now a new addition to my make up bag!

If your looking for a new foundation I urge you to try this! 

Happy New Year!
