Advantages: SKIN LOOKS GREAT
Disadvantages: NOTHING
Bourjois Reboosting Collagen Foundation
Price -
This is priced at £9, which I personally think is a very good price, most foundations are overcharged from leading brands like Clinique and Dior, This product is just as good as products that are charged at £20.
What does the manufactures say about the product?
Visibly reduce the signs of ageing with this revolutionary foundation enriched with collagen micro-spheres. Fine lines and wrinkles are instantly smoothed and the fresh, light and silky texture blends perfectly with the skin's natural tones to even out imperfections. SPF 15 protects the skin against the ageing effects of the sun.
This lightly tinted cream will give you a youthful looking complexion while leaving a delightful lingering smell of roses.
My own opinion of the product:
This liquid foundation is easy to apply with your fingertips or a foundation sponge for a long lasting, gorgeous finish and is great for combination skin!
Shades available
Abricoté clair 61
Rose peau 62
Beige 63
Abricoté 64
Beige rosi 65
There are 5 available to buy which are reasonable to a product like this, you have a good chance of finding a colour for your skin, I think however they should be more colours for darker people my friend who is Indian struggled finding the right colour and had to mix 4 foundations with this to find her colour.
This product is a medium coverage which means you don't look caked but your skin is also being concealed by the foundation so no one can see those 'embarrassing spots'
-The Packaging--
I must admit, I love the product but the packaging isn't exactly the best I've ever seen. It isn't bad to say it is cheap anyway, but I prefer the look of leading brands like Diors foundation which are in elegant bottles.
A big downside to this product is it's not in a see through tube so you can't see how much you have left so if you're running low you don't know.
--Application--
The foundation is liquid based and is therefore very easy to apply.
When I apply this foundation I wet my foundation brush in warm water tap it a little with a tissue so it's not soaking then apply the foundation on the brush.
Since I've used this strategy for applying make-up I've noticed how great my foundation looks, the water blends in so well with my foundation and make it so much easier to apply and also it seems to look more even and natural.
Also, I've noticed when my sky is dry and I soak the brush before applying the foundation my skin doesn't look dry anymore, I can't explain why because even I don't know.
Foundation is easy to apply unevenly, particularly around the eyes, mouth and nostrils, so make sure you check your work before doing the rest of your makeup.
--Texture--
The texture of this product is great, it's very soft and not too thick.
--Appearance--
It makes my skin look so good, I couldn't believe it when I wore it for the first time, it makes the skin look flawless, and not too caked!
.This product is targeted at older people as it has ingredients that reduce the signs of ageing however I use it because it has a good coverage, I know someone whose 50 year old who uses this product and she loves it, the results of the foundation are great, her skin looks great.
This make-up is well known for its excellent coverage, I've heard so many positive reviews about this product and that it really covers well any imperfections you are dying to hide, but you still get that 'fresh faced look' which seem to be all true as when I wear it my skin doesn't look caked in make-up and covers all my problem areas.
When I wear it, it doesn't feel like I'm wearing any foundation it feels so light, I expected it to feel quiet heavy as most good coverage foundations as they are thicker to hide any flaws, but this foundation feels like I'm wearing nothing.
--Coverage--
One layer of this is defiantly enough, the good thing about this product is, if you have really bad skin you can build the coverage up, say you want a full coverage just by applying more it will cover the whole of your problem area if you apply more than one layer.
Summary: EXCELLENT
