Hi Everyone! Welcome back to my blog! Xx

Today I'm going to write and review the Too Faced Born This Way foundation. This isn't a totally 'new' product, however it hasn't been on the market very long. 

I have been absolutely dying to purchase this foundation since it released, however whenever I went into Mecca to buy it, or even consider having a look, the shade they matched me with was ALWAYS sold out 😫 Anyway, a couple of months ago I then did go into Mecca to purchase something else, and looked at the Born This Way out of curiosity and they had one left in my shade (porcelain) yay!! I don't regret buying this product at all.

As I mentioned in my review on the Lancome Miracle Cushion, I always tend to go for full-coverage foundations as I like them better on my skin and they cover up any marks (which we all want, right?!). The lady at Mecca said the foundation was very dewy and light coverage, and I was confused as every other review I looked at on the product, they said it was a full-coverage foundation that was semi-matte.

The foundation is definitely quite semi-matte. It isn't completely stale and matte, however it isn't completely dewy and shiny. It applies sort of matte however when it dries it looks so natural. Too Faced advertises - Boasts an 'undetectable' finish, people will think you were 'born' with naturally radiant looking skin. Enriched with Coconut Water to replenish moisture levels, Alpine Rose to brighten the skin's appearance and boost elasticity and Hyaluronic Acid to smooth skin. The look of imperfections is blurred for a flawless looking complexion. I definitely agree with this, although you never really know if any product involves all those 'good things' for your skin. 

I personally think it is quite a medium coverage on me, which I have decided that I love! The formula blends beautifully, you have plenty of time to brush it over your face, and it doesn't show pores terribly or anything. A positive is that it isn't the most expensive on the market regarding foundations, its more on the cheaper side (not as cheap as drugstore obviously). I recall that I paid approx. $58 from Mecca, and I believe it is still that price. Another pro about the product is that it comes with a pump bottle, which is so good and convenient to apply with!

I apply the product with a buffing brush and then blend it in with the Real Techniques sponge and it gives such a flawless, natural finish. 

If I were you, and I was thinking of purchasing this product, I say DO IT! Its definitely worth the money if you're wanting to try out a new foundation, and they have such a great range of colours too! yellow based, neutral based and pink based!
