As the title says....looking for real people and real reviews please. Fed up of fake reviews.

I have lines on my face,normal skin.

Thanks

Me! I've got combination skin. I have 2 foundations, the cream cushion and the Matt second skin. The cream cushion gives quite a glowy look with light coverage. You can layer it but I've not really tried that as I find it quite heavy. I do like it though, over a sunscreen for summer. The second skin gives really good coverage and feels nice. The colours in the dewy and matte second skin are different even with the same number so be sure to try them in person. I've got really sensitive eyes and they are the only thing I've found in years that don't make my eyes itch . Hope this helps

I found the shades very limited/ orangey and its masses of packaging for a 15g product
The cushion bit looked grubby
Very disappointed, I also disliked being unable to get a sample

In contrast the Clinique Calm Balm was perfect colour , gorgeous texture and blends like a dream, costs more but 30ml product and you need a tiny amount
I used the sample for 2 weeks
I have combination skin and I usually get slippage on my T-zone but this stayed put

I’ve recently started using the dewy second skin and it’s great. Excellent coverage, nicely buildable and lasts all day with primer underneath. I’ve gone so fond of it that my old one is in the bin and I’ve just bought the longwear foundation that she does but am yet to try it

I have the cream blush in dusty rose and cream bronzer and I love them. The eyeliner is lovely too. Haven’t tried the foundations yet but many of my friends have and love the look and affordability of them. Do take time to colour match though.

I’d like to try the longwear one, they sell it on ASOS, trying to figure out what colour I am. I am very dubious of the online matching services as when I bought the VB foundation in store I was not the same colour as recommended online after giving my Double Wear shade, so could have been a very expensive online mistake.

Agree
Also because its in this wierd cushion base there is no chance for a sample
Im afraid Im very strict about this as I like to take a sample home and do a wear test in real life and light before spending money on a full size product
SBA is a bit of a strange one, lots of SM presence but you choose it off the shelf when its not really off the shelf prices

I’ve been pleased with the hydra tint for light coverage. I did not like the cushion one at all, I found it really oily and unpleasant.

SheilaFentiman · 27/09/2026 09:31

I use the Hydratint which is the lightest coverage (I think) - I got colour matched in person and the woman doing it gave me a little pot with around two facefuls 😀 in, so I could check at home, in natural light etc before I bought a full one.

The Hydra tint is a great product if you are looking for light coverage. I think it’s close to Trinny BFF. I haven’t tried anything more substantial as I don’t like heavy foundations.
