Hi loves! Today I have for you guys a review on Avon Calming Effect Foundation and I'm in the shade Ivory (30 ml). You can find down below also a demo video, which will show how it applies and looks on skin.
The foundation comes in a glass bottle and has a pump, which I like. The pump doesn't pump out a lot of products at once, so I do need 4 pumps to do one side of my face (I also show how much product it is in the video down below). The shade matches me well. It is slightly darker, which means in summer its going to look perfect ;)
There is no scent to the formula and it hasn't irritated my skin in any way. The formula feels light weight on skin and blends in effortlessly.
After applying it, the foundation doesn't feel sticky to the touch and it becomes more matte, but its not as matte as all the life has sucked out of you. It looks naturally matte, if you know what I mean.
Now on me it didn't stay matte too long, as I do have oily T-zone. I needed to do a touch up once through out the day and in the evening I should do another one, if I would go out. Even though I got oily I still had the coverage I wanted. I just needed to take care of my oiliness.
Overall I find its a great foundation. I always hope to stay matte all day, but it never happens. I'm still happy I didn't loose any of the coverage and it feels comfortable on skin.
What foundation your using at the moment?
Thanks for reading! :)

It's good that you like it. I don't really trust avon for foundations. Maybe mascaras I could try but I'm on the fence about the general idea :)

It sounds like it really works for you, im not a fan personally of Avon make up other than their lipstick x
ReplyDeleteOoh it sounds pretty good considering the price! xx

This sounds really nice and so affordable! It's been ages since I've tried anything from Avon.

I have combination skin, so a mattifying foundation like this should work fantastic for me! Thanks for the review :-)
ReplyDeleteoh I'm always looking for the perfect foundation for combination and oily skin..my favorite is the l'oreal infallible matte and now I'm using the catrice mat plus one which is also quite good! :)
ReplyDeleteI forget about Avon to be honest with you and I don't think I've ever tried their foundation. I do have oily skin and prefer a matte hoping it will help with the oil. I may look into this foundation. Thanks for the review.
