I've been wanting to try this foundation for quite a while now. So, I caved in and bought it. It is an airbrush foundation with an ultra fine mist. The foundation is exclusive to Sephora.
Facts:
- Retail price is $35 CAN
- 2.5 oz
- 9 shades
- Satin Finish
- Buildable Coverage
- Oil, Parabens, Sulfates and Phthalates Free.
The suggested use according to the Website is:
- Shake well for five seconds before each use.
- Cover hair and clothes.
- Close eyes and hold can 10 inches away from face while pressing on nozzle and moving in circular motions.
- Blend with Sephora PRO Foundation Airbrush Brush #55.
For achieving a light coverage it says to spray directly on to Sephora Pro #55 and blend it in. For a fuller coverage, spray six to eight inches away from the face spraying in circular movements.
I tested out the method of spraying the product on the Sephora Pro #55 brush and then blending it in and it didn't provide enough coverage for me. Although, spraying the product on to a brush is defeating the purpose of an airbrush foundation, it's less messy. The next time I used the foundation I sprayed it on to the Sephora Collection #45 brush and blended it in. Man, did I ever get a full coverage since the brush is more dense.
Overall, The foundation is great! I would give this foundation an 8/10. Due to the fact that I didn't like the finish without setting it with a powder and the color selection is still very minimal. If you're a dry skin you don't need to set it unless you want a matte finish. For my fellow combination to oily skins, set the foundation in your t-zone in order for it to last you 8+ hours. Throughout the day the foundation held up great. Since I do set the foundation with a translucent powder it stayed 11 hours without becoming blotchy. (I have really long days)
Here's a fun fact about Sephora Collection, it's owned by Louis Vuitton. So yes, it is luxury and nothing less than any other brand Sephora carries.
I wore this foundation for my first set of Head shots.
