Hi loves! I have always liked Bourjois foundations, but the shade selection is always wrong for me. This time I have Body Shop Lightening Drops (review) to take care of that problem. I have been testing out Bourjois Air Matte Foundation in shade 02 Vanilla (30 ml).
The foundation comes in a squeeze tube, which makes it easy to get the product out and is my second favorite kind of packaging after pump. I love it when foundations come with a pump.
The shade Vanilla is way too dark for me and I'm so happy I had the lightening drops in hand. I picked it up because my own foundation bottle broke and I was unable to use it, so I needed a new one and this looked the lightest shade I could find.
The first thing I noticed was the scent of it. It has a strong fragrance scent to it, which is fresh, so it doesn't bother me too much. I would like it more with out any scent.
It does give a full coverage and hides all my large pores and lasts on me all day. I have oily skin and not all foundations can take it. I like I don't loose the coverage with this foundation, but I still get oily. I apply it in the morning around 7 am and on lunch time I'm already oil. I don't mind blotting off the oil, as long the coverage stays and with this foundation it does.
The foundation feels light on my skin and I feel like my skin still can breath under the full coverage foundation. I hasn't brake me out or irritated my skin even though it is scented.
I'll try to get a demo video up tomorrow so you guys can see for yourself how it applies and looks on my skin.
I'm happy I picked it up and I love the staying powder and the coverage it give me. I have been loving it more then my loved MAC foundation (review), which says a lot. I love the matte finish it has and it feels on skin like nothing.
Which is your favorite foundation?
Thanks for reading! xo's
This sounds like an ideal foundation for me! High coverage but still breathable, yaaaas! Great review!

I'm really curious about this and other Bourjois foundations, I haven't tried any! I have dry skin so I'm not sure this one is for me. Great review!

I think it would be too much for dry skin, but they do have other foundations, which might fit your skin type :)
DeleteI may have to give this a go! lovely review x
