Product Review #002: Hourglass Vanish Foundation

Hourglass Vanish Foundation

Let me just start off by saying that I don't wear foundation very often, I wear tinted moisturizers much more often than foundation. Since I don't wear it very often, when I do wear it I really want it to make my face look flawless, otherwise what's the point of foundation?  I will admit that I am pretty picky when it comes to high end foundation because I think that the drugstore has stepped their game up in the foundation department... so believe me when I tell you that if a foundation has compelled me to write a blog post... it MUST be good.

I have very dry skin and prefer a satin finish but since I live in miami the foundation has to hold up on a humid night out. 

The first and only time I wore this foundation was on New Years Eve and it only took me one wear to know that I absolutely loved it. I know what works and what does not work on my skin so it doesn't take very long for me to determine if I love or hate a product. 

This foundation did everything I want a foundation to do:

• It held up pretty well in high humidity.
• Did well in flash photography.
• Held up well even after sweating from dancing all night.
• Made my pores look nonexistent.
• Did not break me out the next day or irritate my skin in any way.
• DID NOT crease on me. 

One thing I CANNOT stand from foundation is when it creases on my smile lines, I want the foundation to look flawless but not to the point where you can tell from a mile away I'm wearing it. 

I exfoliated prior to applying, I used my Makeup Forever smoothing primer underneath and a very good moisturizer (Embryolisse lait-Creme) 

I've tried the MUFE foundation stick & I'm not sure if I was applying it incorrectly but I did not like it, which is why I was hesitant to try this one but I'm SO glad I did. 

I'm currently shade Bisque

Definitely recommend.
