   Pros:
   Perfect colour match for me
   Build able Medium coverage
   I like the bottle and pump
   Affordable and no animal testing

   Cons:
   The smell isn’t great
   I have sensitive eyes and getting this foundation anywhere near my eyes makes them water and sting

   Have only worn this foundation on cooler days so far, not sure how it’s going to go in the heat, but it has lasted my 7 hour shifts without slipping or getting too oily. Would buy this again if it holds up on hot days 🙂

   Pros: photographs well, medium coverage, flawless finish, has spf

   Cons: the foundation will just slide off, gets oily after a few hours, not suitable for the day time, limited shades, very thick consistency (i had to mix it with my moisturiser)

   I liked this at first as it does photograph well and it looks nice but only for a few hours. It settles in fine lines, makes my pores look larger and slides off my face. So I don’t think I will ever wear it again. It just doesn’t have lasting power. If you used a really good primer and set it with a powder It might be ok but not for me.

   I don’t really know if this is good in photos as I haven’t tried it yet. This is a very good foundation, provides medium coverage but I think is buildable, and it gives a flawless look

   IT DOES WORK VERY WELL IN PHOTOS! will not make you have a dark neck and a ghostly white face, and will give you pretty much flawless skin on camera. so it is great for a night out when you know you will be under flash photography.

   HOWEVER! this foundation is not very great in the daytime, because it doesn’t stay on properly ( i use primer and powder finishing, this does not happen to any of my other foundations), and sometimes melts off my face.
   i would give it a five if you only use when taking photos, but not great for everyday wear.

   I don’t know that I would call this an HG foundation, but I will say it’s really good.
   The foundation comes in a sleek pump pack with a black square lid. Very classy looking if a little bulky. The pump delivers slightly more than I need for a full face so I make sure to not quite depress it fully.
   The foundation gives a medium coverage. Definitely not full coverage and definitely not cakey. A good amount of coverage to even out my skintone and do a little to cover up blemishes but I tend to go in afterwards with concealer where I need it.
   I set it with loose powder and it lasts pretty well for the whole day.
   I wear the shade Nude, I am about NW15-20 but less pink than the mac.
   I am quite congestion prone and this does not break me out of clog me up. I wear it daily and I am very happy with it. The only downside is the fragrance. It has a floral fragrance which is a little bewildering at first. Now that I have been using it for months I don’t really notice it anymore but I admit when I first used it I was thinking “ARE you SERIOUS?” it does smell a bit, shall we say… mature?
   I like it a lot better than Bourjois healthy mix. That stuff doesn’t do much imo. This has more coverage than that, a bit thicker in consistency too. Less coverage than Maybelline dream mousse liquid, which is my go-to special occasion fdn when I want full coverage.
