Has anyone tried this?

I really want to but it's quite expensive.

I have and I love it. Give it a try.

ladymacbeth · 30/01/2023 19:27

It only works if you have oily skin. Otherwise it's waaaay too cakey

BinleyMegaChippy · 30/01/2023 19:30

I have, and it's not too bad. I needed a primer underneath. I prefer NARS though. The free foundation brush and eyeliner that you get with the first order are fab.

I have - and I love it.

It kept on popping up on my FB timeline. After doing a few ‘scam checks’ I thought I’d give it a go as I always find it difficult to get a foundation to match my shade (am ridiculously pale).

I was very sceptical (matching foundation colour by a questionnaire) but was reassured by the money back guarantee.

I can honestly say that it’s the best foundation I’ve used since my Prescriptives custom blend.

I’m really happy with. Am now waiting on a delivery of the setting powder.

Kenworthington · 30/01/2023 19:32

Yes I have it on subscription it’s great. I do not have oily skin, in fact quite balanced skin. The colour matching is very very good

Yes - definitely better with primer.

Had it for over a year now and absolutely love it.

The free gifts you get with the subscription are a bit hit and miss but I always find someone to take it off of me!

ClassroomRunaway · 30/01/2023 19:34

I got sucked into their aggressive PR and SM advertising and did not rate it at all. They were also quite annoying about not sending the 'free' make up brush and said they'd only send it if I returned the make up for a refund and reordered. So I'm not a fan really.

User1435 · 30/01/2023 19:35

Mine came out too orange and f

User1435 · 30/01/2023 19:36

*and felt very heavy! Not a fab but I don't wear foundation often to be fair

impressivelycunty · 30/01/2023 19:36

It's ok - but agree with a pp that their aggressive marketing and downright hassling is really annoying.

myrtleWilson · 30/01/2023 19:39

I have it on subscription and rate it - not cakey and don't have oily skin. Dd usually gets the free gifts!

soboredtonight · 30/01/2023 20:01

Ooh thank you everyone. I have dry skin in parts but not oily. I'm still in two minds!

I don't wear foundation nor,ally and even then I use bb cream mixed with Nivea.

soboredtonight · 30/01/2023 20:02

Or whatever moisteriser is in reach.

I tried it and sent it back yesterday. It made my skin feel tight and really dried it out. I have combination/dry skin and it didn't work for me ☹

GlassBunion · 30/01/2023 20:16

It's really lovely. Best match of colour over and above colour matching at beauty counters.

usernotfound0000 · 30/01/2023 20:19

I really like it too. Was sceptical and wouldn't normally spend so much but I do like it. Got a concealer too which is also good. I'm going to add the primer onto my next order too.

IfOnlyTheyMeantIt · 30/01/2023 20:25

I tried it but didn't like it. Went back to my EL Double Wear.

Tamarindtree · 30/01/2023 20:41

I’ve not bought it because I’ve done their test several times and been given a different shade each time!

When I’ve googled the recommended shades to see what others using it look like, they are a completely different colour complexion to mine!

Gingertail · 30/01/2023 20:45

I bought foundation but it didn’t suit me so returned it with no issues.
However I will say that as soon as you click on an advert, you’re bombarded with adverts on FB etc. Even after blocking, they find a way around with different profile names etc.
That alone puts me off buying from them again.

Outtasteamandluck · 30/01/2023 20:46

It was ok. Not sure worth the hype.

Revolution are much cheaper and IMO deffo worthy of the rep.

SalviaOfficinalis · 30/01/2023 20:47

If you’re not really a foundation wearer, can I recommend bare minerals complexion rescue tinted moisturiser, it’s excellent. My skin is on the dry side too.

Forever42 · 30/01/2023 20:48

Good colour match but awful texture on me. Much too dry and cakey.

minidancer · 30/01/2023 20:50

I love the concealer
