Boots No.7 Instant Radiance Brush Foundation

I have used No 7's Stay Perfect foundation for the last few years but was intrigued by the claim they made about this product, '...revitalise your skin...skin looks luminous all day long'. With claims like this I had to try it. This product is slightly different to the other foundtions in the range as it has an in-built application brush - Great idea! Doesn't really work out though. You should squeeze the tube to let some of the foundation out, it then squeezes up through the centre of the brush. When it gets to the top you should wipe the excess off on your hand and then brush from the nose out to the sides of your face. In ...  Read the complete review

When it comes to foundations for me it's a must have! I own a few because I couldn't even contemplate going to use some and having run out or something. I'd feel so naked no chance lol! I like good stuff of course. Not too cheap and not too expensive either but I don't want rubbish on my face as my skin hates me for it.

I've gone through the last few months looking like i've got a newborn child with tired eyes, uneven skin tone and just a general tired & worn appearance. I'd tried other foundations before but they seem to dry my skin out but I thought i'd have one last bash at trying to look somewhere near normal! I use the No7 Instant Radiance Concealer pen with great effect so I thought i'd try the foundation within the same brand. I was over joyed to find a foundation with the same effects of the concealer which is a 'unique energising complex with vitamins C and E to help protect and revitalise dull-looking skin' (quote taken from the Boots website, as I ...  Read the complete review

I bought this item for several reasons. 1. I was nearly out of my recent foundation (another No 7 foundtion) 2. I do like No 7 products (My main brand of makeup). 3. I liked the idea of the brush being attached to the tube for ease of use. When I tried this foundation I was extremley dissapointed. I did try to apply the foundation using the brush but gave up, and instead used my fingers. The foundation did then apply quite well, however I was shocked at the colour (I know I chose this in the shop by trying it on my jawline, and it did blend in with my skin colour quite well). however once I tried it at home it was a very yellow colour, ...  Read the complete review
