If you follow me on instagram, ( do you follow me ?? No??
then follow me nooww!! :P ) then you
must have seen a few days back I received a few make products from Oriflame
from their new launch , "The One" range. I received a foundation, concealer,
mascara and eyeliner.
Since I have never reviewed a foundation here on my blog
I thought of starting with reviewing the foundation, followed by the concealer
and then the mascara and the eye liner.
This new product from Oriflame claims to have illuminating
particles, which will lend a natural glow to your skin.
Let’s see what it actually does.
Packaging: - it
comes in a cardboard box, the foundation comes in a cylinder glass bottle with
a pump. I like this type of packaging; you can dispense the amount you need
because of the pump tube. The pump is also covered with a transparent cap.
Color: - The
color is natural beige and I think it is perfect for complexions till NC40 ,
sad that they do not have a wide range of color in this. Natural beige is
perfect for people with warm undertones (check the veins on your wrist, mostly
blue means you have cool undertones ; green means warm undertones ), the
foundation has a little bit of yellow undertones.
Product: - the
consistency of the foundation is pretty good, it is neither runny nor thick, it
has a good texture that allows you to work with it easily and spread nice and
even. The coverage is pretty good and hides minor flaws and spots.
It doesn’t set instantly so you have some
time to work with it.
The amount needed quite less I used just two pumps full of
foundation for myself here. It also has spf 20, though I would advice always
wearing a sunscreen under your make up, of more than spf 35, in India.
My experience:-
I like it pretty much, it has a good consistency, nice
coverage and also stays for quite long ( 5+ hours), without looking cakey. It
has no bad fragrance has a very light fresh floral fragrance which fades off
after sometime, and since I have a sensitive nose I can say that this was
really a mild fragrance ( or I would have been saying “I haate it” all the time :P ), the only
problem I faced is that the foundation gets a bit chalky or ashy around the
mouth and I do not like that!
Price: - 799 INR
Quantity: - 30 ml
Rating: - 3.75/5
I would recommend
this because of the light dewy look it gives and ease of working with this.
Have you tried this? Which is your favorite foundation??
