Review: George Ultra Sheer Foundation

Hey

Not all that long ago I did a review on the George Foundation Mousse and I wanted to give the George from Asda Range another chance and here are the results. 



I so wanted this foundation to be better than the mousse one but while it's all the things you want from a foundation, good coverage, no smell and goes on smoothly BUT the colouring just isn't right. I picked mine up in the lightest shade available which is 'Porcelain' but it's still so Orange which is SO annoying because I think the range would be perfect if everything wasn't so orange!


According to the bottle which is pretty fancy, the bottle itself isn't plastic it feels like glass and it is frosted which gives it a nice look. The foundation says it is 'light perfecting & moisturising' 'contains vitamins and suitable for all skin types'

I got mine online with my weekly food shopping but I'm fairly sure it is available in most of their shops. It cost £5.00 for 30ml which is pretty good if it works for your skin tone. The pump itself is a pain because a lot comes out from just the lightest touch so do be careful if you only want a little amount at a time.

Review: George Skin Perfection Mousse Foundation

Hey

I think it's time for another review :).

Today I'm going to be review the George Skin Perfection Mousse Foundation. I picked it up in No 2 Ivory Beige.


I stumbled across this when I was doing my weekly food shopping which I do online and was intrigued to see Asda do their own foundation so I popped one into my basket and waited patiently for it to be delivered.

Fast forward two days and I began to try it out, only I made the mistake of trying it out at night which is never a good idea but I was desperate to try it so I thought what the hell. The product claims to be smooth & silky coverage



So I applied it to my face and not being it the best light it looked amazing and covered everything up really well so I thought I was on to a winner but come morning when I tried it again it was applied orange which is really gutting and as I couldn't a swatch as I brought it online I probably should have gone for the lighter shade, but never mind.


I will say it goes on really smoothly and feels amazing on, I would say it gives you light coverage but you could probably build it up in order to make it medium coverage. 

So because it is orange I'm gonna say I wouldn't recommend this product unless you have darker skin or wear fake fan on your face. I'm sad that I won't be able to use this as a foundation but can't brings myself to throw it out. If you have any suggestions on another way I could use this product then please let me know. 

This product cost £6.00 and they also have 3 other shades.

Till next time

Barry M Flawless Matte Finish Foundation

Hey

I recently went out and spent some of my Christmas money & one of the things I picked up was the Barry M Fawless Matte Finish Foundation.

I have dry skin but I like the look of the matte foundation on my skin and it doesn't leave my face all cakey.


I'm in the shade Ivoy and it matches my skin perfectly. I apply this with a flat top Kabuki brush which gives you a flawless finish (hence the name) I tend to use two small pumps to cover all my face making sure I blend it well. It also doesn't transfer onto your clothes or other peoples which I like and if you also happen to fall asleep you don't have to worry about any product ending up on your pillow. And it also has great staying power, it lasts all day.

I think people that have Oily skin will really like this foundation as it is Oil free, super blendable & hydrating formula. If you do have dry skin like myself you should moisturiser before applying this foundation as it will cling to any dry patches and that's never a good look.

I only thing I can find wrong with this product is the smell, it doesn't have the best smell in the world but it's probably not the worst either. it leaves your skin looking amazing and super soft. I would say it is a light coverage foundation but you probably could build it up to make it medium coverage but I find for my skin a light coverage is all I need as I'm only trying to even out my skin tone which it absolutely does do. The best part is as it's a drugstore foundation it's affordable at £5.99 for 30g.


I'm wearing the foundation in the picture above and there are no filters on that picture so you can see that the foundation has evened out my skin tone.


Would I recommend?: Yes, it would also be perfect for people will oily skin.

Till next time
