Happy Sunday folks. I hope you all had a great weekend. I went to see JMSN in concert on Friday, and it was marvelous. He was such an amazing performer. Okay, so I’m ready to talk about one of my favorite foundations right now. It is the Makeup By Mario SURREALSKIN Foundation. I have been using this foundation off and on for five months, I’m hooked.
At first, I did not like this foundation. I felt like it was extremely oily. For me to say that, and y’all know I have the driest skin, that is major for me. I started reading reviews on this foundation and other people stated the same thing. It also would separate on my skin. Once I found the proper way to prep and apply this foundation, it turned into magic on my skin.
With this foundation, I find it best to apply with your fingers or use the Real Techniques Blend & Blur Foundation Brush. A little goes a long way with this foundation, so you only need half a pump to cover your whole face. After you complete your makeup look, you NEED to set this foundation with setting powder. This is key to keep the foundation in tact. I don’t set this foundation with any setting spray. When I did it made me look so oily and my foundation separated. I use MAC FIX+ setting spray and it does not pair well with this foundation.
This foundation is extremely hydrating and nourishing. There is Grapeseed oil and Squalane in this product. When you apply this foundation, you will see little specs of mica in it. The specs are gorgeous. I am shade 23O in this foundation. This foundation is $42.00 and to me, is the worth the price. This foundation is best for normal to dry skin. My combination and oily babes, stand clear from this foundation. This foundation will be amazing during the fall/winter. I can’t wait to use it even more during the holidays.
Have any of you tried this foundation? If so, how do/did you like it?
