FACE: Before we start I use the Benefit POREfessional on the right side of my face (left in the picture). I use this primer when I have a long day so thought I would see how it works with and without primer. Also the only other face product I use is a bronzer to contour, I don’t want to use any concealer or powders that might effect the way the foundation sits and the end review will be a full face.

Sponge / Look 1

Every time I do a first impression or review of a foundation I get a brand new Real Techniques Miracle Complexion sponge that I went.

Bare faced, just skin care.

Primer on the one side.

Foundation applied using the sponge, I quite like how it looks.

Contoured using my NARS and Zoeva brush.

Makeup all done

16:15: I have been out and it rained heavy and I so surprised how well the makeup looks still.

Date Tried: Sunday 4th February 2024

Brush / Look 2

Every time I do a first impressions or review of a foundation I use a clean Morphe M444 Buffer Foundation brush.

Bare face, only skincare.

Primer on the one side.

Foundation applied with my favourite foundation brush. I think I prefer the sponge.

Contoured with the same products as before.

Makeup all done and I feel my look is very natural.

20:15: A long day and is shows but not as bad as other foundation.

Date Tried: Wednesday 7th February 2024

I actually like this foundation for a more natural look, the days I have good skin this will be the best. It has the typical Bourjois scent that I remember.
