Blush Beige 02
For the past year or to my go to everyday foundation has
been the Revlon Colourstay for Combination /Oily skin and while I'm still
a fan I just felt that throughout the winter months it was leaving my skin
feeling a little dull. Do you ever have the feeling when you have finished your
make up that it still just looks a bit..meh? I decided a foundation shake up
was in order.
Before Christmas I had just move house so even though I wanted
to test a high end foundation my bank balance just wouldn't allow it. After a
lot of swatching I decided to go with the MeMeMe Flawless Cream Foundation in
Blush Beige.
I've never tried a cream foundation before so I was quite intrigued
and as the Laura Mercier foundation I was is called ‘Silk Crème’ I was hoping
it might be similar?
The packaging is plastic which I'm not so keen on but I do
like the fact that the inside moves up so you can see how much you have left,
if that makes sense, (the Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation does the same thing).
The product is dispensed by a pump and I use one pump to
cover my whole face. This foundation blends into the skin so easily! I think
that may be because it’s a cream, but I've never had a foundation that buffs in
so easily and blends so well, this foundation with the Real Techniques Buffing Brush is a dream team. The coverage is medium but can be built up and it
gives a semi matte finish, I wouldn't say matte but I also wouldn't say dewy so
somewhere is the middle which is perfect for me as my t-zone can get quite oily
I don’t want to much of a shiny finish.
The staying power is great and lasts the majority of my
working day without the need to reapply.
The name states the word ‘Flawless’ which is a big promise
but I have to agree, it covers all my blemishes and redness and leaves my skin
looking smooth and healthy. It also has a slight vanilla scent when applying
which is quite nice.
The MeMeMe Flawless Cream Foundation retails for £12.50
which is creeping up on the pricy side for a high street foundation but I’d say
for the quality it’s worth the price. The only thing that would make this
product better is a glass bottle.
Have you tried this foundation or anything from MeMeMe? What’s
your favourite high street foundation?
I haven't tried anything from MeMeMe but this foundation looks lovely on you! I love Revlon's Colorstay but the one thing that gets me is not being able to see how much product is left so this sounds great!
