Favourite Foundation? Hello Flawless by Benefit!

In the summer, for my birthday, I decided to treat myself to a new foundation. Hearing great things about the Hello Flawless Oxygen Wow Foundation, and instantly falling in love with it's packaging - I thought I would try out the product! 

The product itself is amazing - I bought the shade Ivory:“I'm pure 4 sure” (the yellow toned lightest colour.) And even though it's yellow toned, it is one of the few foundations which doesn't  give me the tangoed face!



The creamy liquid applies smoothly with a brush, though for this product I love using either my hands to “melt” the foundation into my skin or using my beautyblender. 

This product gives me a healthy glow, like it says on the packaging - it is a “Brightening Makeup” item. It builds from a light to medium coverage and contains vitamins C and E which are known to prevent aging. It also has an SPF of 25. The only downside I have for this product, is that I feel that the product can run out quite quickly - after buying my first bottle in mid-August it ran out by the end of October, but maybe that was because I was constantly using this while doing my makeup!


The foundation feels so light on, but feels very moisturising. It gives a smooth, flawless finish, and feels great while you are wearing it. The foundation is quite long lasting, but for me, after about 5 hours it needed touching up. 

If you need a hydrating, brightening, light foundation - this is the one.
