The battle of the HD foundation begins!
This segment will be of 5 parts.
I will be comparing the Kryolan Micro Foundation Mattifying Liquid, MakeUp Forever HD Foundation, Coastal Scents Liquid Foundation, and Revlon PhotoReady Foundation.
The first 4 parts will be individual review of each product and the last one will be a comparison.
I know many of us are still trying to find which foundation would be perfect for them, so I hope this may help find your perfect foundation!
Today is the era of HD media, and the HD cosmetics isn't far behind.
With so many products popping up that says they cater to HD media, it gets so confusing.
So I hope this little segment in my blog will help you decide which products to buy.
Today, I will review the Kryolan Micro Foundation Mattifying Liquid.
This part of the Micro Foundation line by Kryolan.
The Micro Foundation line was created to cater for the High Definition resolution of today's media. There are other products under the Micro Foundation line like cream foundations, airbrush foundations, mattifying liquid foundation, liquid foundation for dry skin, and liquid foundation for matured skin.
What I have is the Mattifying variant of the Micro Foundation liquid foundation, perfect for my very oily skin.
The packaging of this particular product isn't as good looking as other foundations of its price range. I bought mine I think for about P2500, about $50 (not so sure, since I have this for quite sometime now). The bottle is made of cheap looking plastic like the ones in cheap baby toys, but one pro about this is that even if you drop this, the bottle won't break.
I like that this product contains a nice pump, which works wonderfully!
The pump will give you alot of control.
You can dispense as little or as much as you want.
The texture of the foundation is not liquidy at all.
It's more of a mousse consistency.
It's looks thick due to its consistency but not at all heavy.
It feels like you're not wearing any foundation at all when used.
This foundation is very blendable.
It looks very natural and doesn't look cake-y.
The coverage is medium buildable.
It goes on seamless, when blended to the skin.
I find that this foundation is heaven sent for those with large pores, wrinkles, or very textured skin, because this foundation really helps to make the skin looks really smooth and even.
This due to the foundation being silicone based.
When I use this foundation, I don't use primer anymore.
This foundation is gives a soft matte look, which I like because it looks so natural and it doesn't look flat.
Most mattifying foundation can accentuate dry patches/flakes in the skin, but this doesn't!
This foundation is great for oily skin too!
My skin is so oily, but this foundation keeps the shine out all day!
I was really amazed by the oil control properties of this product!
This foundation is water resistant too, and very long wearing.
I have this on when I played paint ball under the scorching heat and it didn't budge or move or shown some wear!
This is the first HD foundation I used so this definitely set my expectation on other HD foundations very high.
This foundation is a must try!
I really love this foundation!
Verdict:
9.5/10
The only con is the price,
but for me, every penny is worth it!
