Myface Cosmetics: Mymix Foundation Review

Hello my lovlies :) time for another review! I've been taking advantage of the 3 for 2 deal at boots,  here is a little gem I picked up.

One thing I must say about their range of products is that it is amazing! Admittedly the packaging isn't fancy, but that shouldn't make you steer away from them. They organise products into skin colour ranges, fair, medium & med/dark. Throughout these ranges, they have products which suit that skin tone, which is pretty clever, as I'm often looking at make up and wondering if it would suit my skin.
When I was looking for a new foundation I was attracted to how they had the little skin colour ranges. For the foundations they had 3 different levels within the main categories, 01, 02 & 03, 01 being the lightest. When trying out the colours 01 looked a definite match and I was so pleased because I haven't been able to find a foundation that is an exact match to my skin. 

However when I got it home, I was slightly disappointed as it didn't look as spot on to my skin tone that I thought. As you can see if has slight undertones which is perfect as quite a few of the pale foundations I have tried have either been too pink or too yellow, but this is pretty spot on.

I don't know if you can see properly from this being rubbed in but it is slightly darker than I thought, however on my face you can't really tell that much, which is great! I did try and mix it with my bourjois healthy mix when I first used it, but it went really cakey. I plucked up the courage to wear it on it's own and it really does look great. I'm so so so pleased with this foundation it is actually unreal!

I don't know how long it lasts because I wear it over my Revlon primer, but with the the primer and being powdered ever so slightly with my E.L.F HD powder it does last all day.

Pros:
-The colour range is great in my opinion, however I wouldn't know for darker skins.
-They have a concealer that is an exact match to the foundation, which saves a lot of hassle.
-I love the finish of the foundation, it's very natural and makes my skin look a lot better.
-Price, I paid £9 for this foundation as it Myface had a n offer going in boots, I'm not sure if it's still going though.
Cons:
- The packaging could look a bit more expensive.. I'm just trying to find something bad really!

Will I repurchase? So very tempted!

RRP: £12.99 at boots and on the myface cosmetics website

  1. I agree, the packaging isn't very persuasive but looks good and certainly a great colour match on your swatch hun xxx
