My Favorite Foundations

So I received a gift for Christmas you guys. My mom bought me the new Burt's Bees Goodness Glows Full Coverage Liquid Foundation. I haven't tried it yet but I will soon. I thought it would be cool to give you guys a review on a few of the different foundations that I use. I use certain foundations for certain reasons. Some days I want or need a darker color. Sometimes I might want to mix them. So my shades vary, but are still pretty close. Again, these are just my opinions. Every product isn't for everyone.

Covergirl Queen Collection All Day Flawless Foundation - True Ebony

Although I don't like the consistency of this foundation it does wear pretty nice. The texture is not thick enough for me. So I feel like the foundation is wet and sitting on my skin not blending in. Another fact about me is that I like to use simplicity with certain makeup looks. In my eyes that means less product I have to use the better. So to help keep me nice and hydrated I don't bake or use many powders besides highlighter and blush. With this foundation I usually bake. I have dry skin but this foundation (in the summer mainly) leaves me a bit more dewy than I would like. I can't even lie, the foundation is just good. Its coverage isn't sheer or tint, but it will not cover your darkest or reddest marks unless you build on it.

Milani Conceal + Perfect 2-in-1 Foundation + Concealer - Chestnut

This is one foundation that I believe to do what it claims. What Milani claims is that this foundation has two benefits: full coverage foundation plus concealer in one. I don't like to wear to much makeup at one time, but I always make way for this foundation. It gives you the full coverage without it getting cakey and patchy. The only thing though, I'm not sure how it holds up on oily skin. To me it has a very little amount of oil or something. For people like myself with dry skin, it's not a problem. So I suggest if you have super/excessively oily skin, stay away from this product.

Nyx Total Control Drop Foundation - Deep Cool /Chestnut

This foundation is the best out of them all. I promise you all, you won't be disappointed. It has a dropper inside so you get to control how much you want to use. I know I often talk about liking thicker foundations, but this is an exception. I use either deep cool or chestnut, sometimes I use both together. This foundation lasts pretty long depending on how often and how much you use. For the best look and coverage use a wet beauty blender. It did come with a brush when it launched but trust me, I wouldn't steer you wrong. You can go make it sheer or a full coverage finish. I would say that it's oily skin friendly.
