MaxFactor Miracle Touch Liquid Illusion Foundation

My shade is creamy ivory 40. You get 11,5 g of this rather unusual foundation and it is pretty pricey as well, cca 17 EUR at Kruidvat (12,50 DM in Germany). You will only understand why they call it miracle touch once you put your fingers into it, it melts away and blends nicely into the skin. It is has a quite high coverage, so you can use it as a concealer, too. It comes with a small sponge to apply it, but I found the best application is either with your fingers or my latest Sigma brush, F82. I like this foundation and will repurchase it, once it is finished.

 

 

 

Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation

This review is a bit overdue, but in my defence, I was trying to wear this foundation on a regular basis just to see how it wear throughout the day etc. My first impression was that it is too yellow for my skin but once I put it on, it blended nicely with my skin and gave it a really nice healthy sheen. My shade is no 52 Vanilla, 30 ml, bought it in Kruidvat during a special deal, 2 products for 15 EUR. I will definitely repurchase it, just to have more options on days when I feel I need apaler,  light-weight foundation with a calming effect. It has a surprisingly good coverage and yet it does not feel like a mask. Plus, the pump makes it easy to dose the product (you hear me, Revlon with your lovely but impractical ColourStay foundation!). I absolutely recommend trying it out.

 

 

Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation and duochrome eyeliner

15 EUR well spent, I think! The foundation - 52 vanilla - is normally 14,90 and the eye pencil - 61 vert doré - 7,30. First impressions...love them both, my skin soaked up the foundation quickly and its yellow colour nicely balanced the redness in my face after the shower. The pencil is just beautiful and difficult to take off, which is a good sign :-)

Wishlist Revlon Colourstay foundation

Ever since I read that this is a dupe for Estee Lauder Double Wear foundation, I am very keen on trying it:
