The Body Shop All In One Face Base

I bought this on a recent trip to the Body Shop where the very helpful assistant asked me about my skin and my make-up needs, then gave me a free makeover in which she used this foundation as the base. I was so impressed with how easy it was to apply that I bought it straight away. It costs £11.50 from Body Shop stores or their website. It's a mirror-like shiny silver compact with a catch at the front to open it. The lid lifts up to reveal the foundation in the bottom and a mirror in the top, but you can pull the mirror down and there's a space where the sponge is stored behind it. The foundation is a powder which you use the provided sponge to ...  Read the complete review

I've used a number of all-in-one make-up bases over the years, as I can't seem to get on with liquid foundations and powder on it's own doesn't seem to do the trick any more. When it comes to quality, I think the Body Shop's All-In-One Face Base comes top of the list. The face base comes in a smart shiny silver compact case with the Body Shop's logo embossed on it. Inside you have the make up on the bottom, with a hinged cover over it on top of whch sits an applicator sponge. There is a mirror in the lid of the case. The product itself is a combined foundation and powder. It will cover up blemishes and will even out your skin tone, but for dark ...  Read the complete review

I have been meaning to review this for ages but just haven't got around to it. It is one of my favourite make up products and now could not live without it! I don't wear make up all the time, I just can't be dealing with the hassle of it when I am just at home or going to the shops, as I work from home there is no need to wear make up more than once or twice a week. If however it is hot and I am popping to the shops or into town I will put on a little powder so I don't look shiny. I used to use a cheap powder and just keep this for when I put my face on but I soon stopped that where the usual power I used just seemed so rubbish in comparison! This ...  Read the complete review

I have been using this foundation/powder for a long time and find it fantastic so I thought I'd share my opinion with you. I've never been a huge foundation fan and I can't bear the feeling of having something on my face and when this was recommended to me years ago I tried it and loved it. It combines a concealer and foundation in one so it covers slight blemishes as well as evening out tone, if I have a small red spot this powder will cover it pretty well. It comes in a round silver flip top compact with the Body Shop logo on, and when you flip open the top the sponge is sitting there on top of a plastic panel. When you remove the sponge and ...  Read the complete review

**** Introduction **** Having a really pale complextion can be very hard when I comes to buying the right foundation, if I buy a foundation that is to dark my skin can look dirty and if I buy a foundation that is too pale I tend to look very pasty and ill. So when I found this all in one base cover by the Body shop all of my dreams came true as I now get a nice even coverage that works perfectly ofr my skin tone. **** All in One Base **** This body shop all in one base foundation is basically a cream foundation and powder combined, it is similar to a pressed powder in apperance but the pouduct is actually wet making application ...  Read the complete review
