This foundation gives you a medium to full coverage producing a good flawless finish.
I have tried the lasting foundation without the serum and found this to be quite a drying texture but this foundation with the added serum makes all the difference. The serum makes it feel more fluid and less chalky.
If your skin is dry I don't think this foundation is for you. The texture dries off quickly and leaves skin quite flat and matte. If your skin is combination or oily then it sits much nicer on the skin. It does help mattify the skin and gives it an even texture. I did feel like I needed to put a bit of radiance back into my skin with a highlighter where I wanted the sheen.
This foundation did tend to settle into fine lines also so if you have texture to the skin then use less in these areas.
I got the best results with this foundation when I spritzed a facial mist over the face first so the skin was damp and then buffed the foundation in with our Expert Face Brush.
Available in seven shades, all which are on the light side really so no good if you have a medium to darker skin tone unfortunately.
Overall a good everyday foundation for a quick, full cover that lasts well on an oily skin type.
This is £7.99 and available from http://www.boots.com http://www.superdrug.com
I have oily skin and this is THE BEST foundation for me, I choose it over my expensive formulas for a long lasting, dewy finish

I always hear that this foundation is great, although it may be a bit too drying for me! x

It sounds like a lovely addition, I've tried the original but found it a bit too drying - will have to keep a look out for this!

I cannot wait to try this, I have oily skin and am still on the hunt for a foundation that works and stays matte. Thank you xo

I love the rimmel foundations I have the lasting finish for my everyday use, so I will definitely have to try this!

Haven't tried this, but as my skin can be quite dry it probably wouldn't be ideal for me. Thanks for sharing! x

ReplyDeleteAh I don't think I'll be getting this foundation then, I have combination skin but it's subject to change. Love your posts and videos!

I have very drying skin so this won't work for me :(

I've been using it and have dry skin, but there is a method to it. My primer is Josie Maran Light Argan Oil over a serum, and I sheer it out with a wet sponge. No powder, of course. I barely go near powder anymore.
ReplyDeleteJust finished using this foundation and although I really like it I still prefer the Rimmel wake me up foundation!♥

I found the original to be chalky too! This seems like a great idea to re-launch. Will have to give it a go. xo

ReplyDeleteHm, interested to try this product. Perhaps it could be nice with The Body Shop Radiance Highlighter! Lilly xx http://alittlelilly.blogspot.nl/
ReplyDeleteI love that it doesn't transfer and lasts long, but it's too drying for my combination skin :(
ReplyDeleteDefinitely tempted to give this a go! x

I've used this product for as long as I can remember but I agree with you! The comfort serum helps create a dewy look on my skin all day so I would recommend this for people with oily skin too! x
