Using a beauty sponge sheered out the foundation too much, and my Blendiful (which I love using with most foundations) didn’t spread it out easily enough, since it is initially thick in texture. It took several attempts to land on a tool that applies the product evenly and smoothly on the skin. The one source of frustration I have with this foundation is the application. If I do have any dark spots showing through, I simply cover them up using Lisa Eldridge’s pinpoint concealing technique.

It adds a subtle hydration to the skin without being overly dewy. Under those circumstances, this foundation is lovely. I like wearing this best when my skin is mostly clear (and, knock on wood, it has been lately). It is not sheer, but any breakouts I’m experiencing do peek through. This foundation is a true medium coverage. Does it enhance my skin and last a long time before breaking up? For the most part, yes, it does. What I care about is how it works on the face. However, I’m no scientist, so please do enlighten me in the comment section if there’s some truth to this whole anti-pollution thing that I’m missing.Īll that being said, I don’t really mind if this foundation doesn’t have the anti-pollution powers it claims to possess. It’s unlikely that the antioxidants in this foundation are doing much of anything. They are relatively unstable and require protective packaging (think vitamin C serum being stored in a darkened or opaque bottle) to maintain efficacy. While antioxidants can be beneficial–particularly in skincare–they aren’t necessarily a great addition to makeup. From what I understand, it is largely an empty term that usually means antioxidants have been added to the formula. What a name! The “anti-pollution” descriptor makes my eyes roll. Revlon PhotoReady Candid Natural Finish Anti-Pollution Foundation($10.99) This past year, they have begun to refresh their offerings, coming out with a line of foundations and concealers that created some buzz in the beauty community. Revlon had been lagging in that area for some time. Needless to say, it holds a special place in my heart.īase products, however, are not the first thing I think of when it comes to this brand. In fact, I wore a Revlon lippie in Blushed on my wedding day. They are especially known for their lipsticks, certain shades of which have been in production since the 1950s. When it comes to drugstore makeup, Revlon is a classic.
