Maybelline Great Wear Liquid Makeup

When it comes to foundation, I'm afraid I'm usually a bit of a product snob - just because just about everything I've tried that costs less usually seems cheap and nasty. Not that my skin is easy to please, it reacts quite badly to a lot of things and has a bad habit of turning any foundations it can into a nasty orange colour. So I really did not expect to like this. I only ended up trying it because I'd gone away for the weekend and - disaster! Somehow I'd forgotten foundation. I was in a tiny village with one shop - and this was almost all they had. I was pleasantly surprised to start with that there was a good range of colours, ...  Read the complete review

This highly effective foundation must be one of the greatest beauty bargains around at the moment. It is both oil free and very long wearing; and is just brilliant value for anyone looking for high performance at a low-end price.

I must admit, that at 21 I was a bit of a late starter with foundation. Having never been told how to use it before by anyone, it had always remained quite a mystery to me and I had never really felt the need to use it until recently. However, I decided that it was about time that I gave it a go. I had no idea where to start, how to find the right colour etc. but certainly, having seen lots of people around with horrible orange tidemarks, and cracking cake faces, was sure of how I did not want to look. I had it at the back of my mind that I might embark upon the challenge at some point but was a bit frightened of asking makeup counter salespeople for advice. ...  Read the complete review
