New Maybelline Foundation

BlackMamba

Hi! Not sure if there's a thread on this already but I'm curious about this product.
It's supposed to hide pores and imperfections. I have large pores on my nose and all foundation I have used emphasised them.
Just wondering has anyone used it and does it work!

I just tried a sample I got in a magazine, it was a few shades too dark for me(not terrible though, I was surprised), it was called Sand 030. It blends in well and looks quite natural, a lovely smooth finish, nice and lightweight also. As for hiding pores and imprefections I'd say its about the same as any other medium coverage foundation. I doubt it would emphasise them anyway. Seems pretty good to me, if they have a light enough shade for my skin tone(doubtful) I might pick up a bottle.

I bought this the other day after reading several reviews. I don't have a huge problem with pores, so I can't really comment on that.
I don't know about airbrushed finish, but it looked and felt lovely on my skin. It didn't clog me up or cling to dry patches, and most importantly it stayed on all day, even without a primer underneath. It gives a nice, light, dewy sort of finish, not looking heavy or cakey at all - I couldn't feel it on my face, which is always a good thing in my eyes. It evened me out without covering up freckles and such. Overall I was pretty impressed!
I reckon this might not suit oilier skin types though, perhaps overly moisturising, but perfect for dry skin.

And LDG, I fall into the category of palest of the pale, and I bought it in Light Porcelain, the lightest shade, and it suits me. I definitely give it a try anyway!

This girl didn't seem as impressed though

I bought it, and I hate the tone of it. It might be because it is a bit too dark for my skin.
Or because it is giving too much coverage.
I have open pores, and it did mask them, but a primer underneath would the same with your usual foundation.
I use lanacane anti chaffing gel as a skin primer.

Do you find that it clogs your pores up?
I've read it's suppose to look good but can cause spots and blackheads.

was thinkin of giving it a go - have a good few points on my boots card so could use them to buy it.

Bought it on saturday and love it. Have dry skin so suited me perfectly. Put it on at 1pm on sunday and it gave me a nice dewy finish that lasted til midnight, even after a lot of dancing. Great price too!

I havent noticed that, but I don't wear make up most days.
So I wouldnt be having that much exposure.

I think you're talking about the new air whipped one which is supposed to look "100% air brushed"! I bought it a week ago or so and I definitely don't think it covers up pores or looks 100% air brushed! It's still nice though and a great foundation for only the price of it. Boots have a special offer on it now so you can get it for around eight euro which is three euro off. I'd say try it and then you'll see how it works for you because make up is different on everyone.

I was going to buy some the other day but I couldn't find one to suit my skin tone. Neither could my friend who has slightly darker skin. The colour choices don't seem to be great.
