Makeup Forever Mat Velvet + Foundation Review

        

   
     I have a combo skin but much more on the oilier side and this foundation is always on the top list of best foundations for oily skin so I said to myself I cant miss this one I must try this  & Its finally here!!! yey! haha... oh cant wait to share my experience so here it is.


Price: P 2,700

Location bought: Makeup Forever Boutique Greenbelt 2

Claim
 
       
The Mat Velvet + foundation conceals skin imperfections, evens out the complexion and matifies with a non-oily powdery finish. The result is flawless and lasts for hours long. Its smooth, fluid texture is very stable, water-resistant and long-lasting. While it has a good coverage, it is also easy to apply. The end result can befitted to your needs. Applied lightly, Mat.

* I bought two shades mainly because the first sales assistant fail to asses my skin tone correctly uhg! but its fine I can use both colors I have the talent of versatility & creativeness LOL



* Left side is the shade #45 which is the darker one and on the right side is shade #30 which is two shades lighter? Im not sure but its way lighter than #45. Since I cant refund my makeup anymore I just bought a new one, the second sales assistant recommend me to get the #30 so even if its way lighter than my skin tone I can mix both to get a close match to my shade so that #45 wont be wasted but it's still way better if i really had my shade boohoo oh well, all I can do as of now is work with what I have.


Texture & Appearance                          

Its thick and full, easy to blend

Coverage                       

The coverage is superb! in just one layer and I'm in full coverage I might say I was really amazed and surprised what this baby can do, best applied with flat top brush.


Staying Power                           

 It does last longer as they claim can withstand a substantial heat and sweat


Pros
  • Matte
  • Full Coverage
  • Neutralizes Redness
  • Oil free
  • Water Resistant
  • Flawless & smooth
  • Ideal even for combination skin
  • Easy to Apply

Cons
  • Expensive

- Can’t think of any other cons than this 




Overall Verdict
Rate: 9/10                    
           
        I can't say this is my HG foundation because I haven't tried a multitude yet... but as of now this is definitely on the top of my list I was really blown away by the result  and I had lots of compliment on how my face brighten and looks fresh, the staying power is also amazing.             
          
        When I hit my 20's my skin type suddenly changes from oily to combination skin and its hard for me to find the right foundation that can withstand my oiliness but at the same time wont dry me out and I found this foundation that really suit my needs.            

     A two thumbs up, I highly recommend this to all the ladies out there who are having combination skin, that suffer from finding the right foundation for their needs. Try this out & maybe you'll fall in love also the way I did. Definitely worth investing just be careful try not to pick the wrong shade Its kinda hard to match ones color with this foundation.
