There's something special about foundations. I've learned a few things about them in the last two years, especially during the make-up courses I took, but there's always more to learn.
I did a lot of research before I bought my first foundation, read lots and lots of reviews, until I finally went to a MAC counter to buy it. Even then I wasn't sure what I wanted, but I knew what I didn't want. I didn't want something heavy, that would make me look like I was wearing a mask.
So my first foundation was Face and Body from MAC. It was exactly what I wanted, very light and sheer, easy to apply and looked very natural on my skin.
Little did I know but that was just the beginning of a long and exciting journey in search for the perfect foundation.
You would think that once you buy a foundation that makes your skin look great it would be the end of it. Wrong. It's such a thrill every time I try a new one. If you are not interested in make up you will never understand it.
I have a few foundations:
MAC - Face and Body
MAC - Studio Fix Fluid
Chanel - Vitalumiere Aqua
Bourjois - Healthy Mix Serum
Bourjois - Healthy Mix
Bourjois - 123 Perfect
Giorgio Armani - Maestro
Maybelline - Fit Me
My favourite at the moment is Maestro from Giorgio Armani. It's the best foundation I've ever tried, and as long as you moisturise your skin very well before applying the product, it will give you a really beautiful finish, so light it doesn't seem you are wearing foundation.
I'm thinking about taking some pictures wearing each one of the foundations I've got with pros and cons of each one. I think it would be useful for someone who's looking for a foundation and doesn't know yet which one to buy and useful for myself to take my time analysing each one of them.
Also, I've got many samples from different brands and I'll start testing them soon. Who knows, maybe there's something even better than my beloved Maestro...
