Review: Maybelline Fit Me Range

I never get excited to try drug store foundation, in fact I've been using the same foundation for months now (MAC Studio fix fluid NC15) but when i saw this advertised on TV i knew i had to try it. I purchased mine on a 3 for 2 offer at Boots.

Foundation:

My first thoughts on this foundation was how sleek and expensive the bottle looked. Priced at an inexpensive £8, i purchased the lightest shade in 115. This was my first ever gel-based foundation as i usually purchase full coverage matte foundations and  i wasn't expecting the consistency to be so runny. Never the less i applied the foundation with a brush and my first coverage was sheer/medium as i could still see my blemishes. I applied another layer and extra where it was needed and found the coverage to build and blend well.
The foundation gave a dewy finish which i liked as the winter months and matte foundation began making my skin look extremely dull, although i personally would not wear this in summer as i would have a grease overload! not a good look...

Concealer:

I don't know why but i had high hopes for this. I purchased shade 15 to match the foundation. First application of this, i wasn't expecting the consistency to be so thin but never the less i applied it where it was needed, and i wasn't impressed...it didn't seem to cover anything. My under eye dark circles were still showing, as were the blemishes and red patches. So i applied some more but it really wasn't doing anything for me, and during the day i noticed i had greasy creases under my eyes!...not pretty.
Priced at £5.99 i can honestly say i would not purchase this again.

Powder:

After applying the foundation and concealer, i tried the powder in shade 125 nude beige. I found that it set the foundation well and gave a natural/slightly matte finish but had to be applied again during the day. Priced at a reasonable £5.99, it is a very light-weight powder so if you prefer your powder to give a thick and cakey finish, steer clear of this! Comes as a compact with a mirror and a powder puff.

Overall i was quite pleased with the build-able coverage and dewy finish these 3 products gave my skin although i thought the concealer could have been better.

Welcome ♥

Quite excited now i have my blog up and running!
I've been wanting to start my own blog for ages but I have never found the time, and as i am currently on maternity leave i thought what better time to start while i'm sat at home bored stupid!
Some of the things you can expect to find on this blog will include my thoughts on beauty products, hair products, baby chit-chat, everyday life ramblings and possibly a bit of complete randomness.
