Maybelline Fit Me foundation and concealer
Alright lovies, the time has come! I've been seeing Maybellines commercials for the new Fit Me line and was very skeptical at first. I've tried a few of their cosmetics, foundations included, and was far from impressed. Although I didn't really want to try it I figured I owed it to makeup lovers everywhere to try it. I found the concealer at Walgreens for $6 and ALL of the foundation was sold out, so needless to say I wanted it even more at that point. First let me tell you how to buy the product. On the display there are little cards with the foundation color, numbers and concealer recommendations (if your number 335 foundation try 35 concealer). There are little cutout windows on the card and you put your wrist under the window and do so until you find your match.
After days of checking Walgreens I gave up and got it from Target. At Target its $6.99 (not bad at all). I get home and smell it, put it on my hand and was like "whoa". The next day I decided to actually wear it. I put it on the first time with my fingers as I do all of my liquid foundations and let me tell you. I was sooooo shocked! It was gorgeous! I could tell the color was right while it was wet and was still worried about the ashy look after it dried. I finished it with Maybellines Finishing Veil Mineral Powder. After it set again I was surprised, it was flawless.
It gives full coverage, blends well and only has a slight fragrance. Well honestly, I don't know, my secondtime wearing Fit Me I used a new foundation brush (also from Target by Sonia Kashuk $14.99) and I think the brush might have the scent. Anyways, the color fits me awesomely. I've worn it 4hrs, 5hrs and 15hrs. The only time it needed a touch up was after 10hrs!!! The concealer goes on very bright but erases my dark under eye circles once covered up with the foundation. I will definitely buy the pressed powder and put it into heavy rotation.
I think I like this product more than Revlons Colorstay but only on days I want a dewy texture to my skin. I would definitely recommend this product to anything with a pulse. Try and I'm pretty sure you'll love it!
