Product Hype : Charlotte Tilbury Magic Foundation

 

This is the foundation that I have been waiting to try out for such a long time and I finally have my hands on it. Charlotte Tilbury products have always interested me as I am a total sucker for the pretty packaging and I find that the products are always of great quality. I am always on the hunt for the best foundation out there and I still have a tonne of foundations to try out on my list but I feel that this foundation has really amazed me so far.

This magic foundation applied onto my skin like a dream and the finish that it gave was phenomenol. I have combination oily skin so I tend to have little dry patches during the winter. Using this foundation did not highlight the areas and cling to them, but I found that it actually worked well in hydrating the area and gave my skin much more radiance. The finish that it gave is a semi-matte finish which meant that it gave just the right amount of glow making the foundation looking very natural. I really like their good range of shade options which can accomodate most skintones and I was able to be shade matched in stores which was really helpful. 

The foundation itself is very buildable from a medium to a high flawless coverage depending on the look you want. Also with a light SPF of 15 it is good for sun protection if we ever get any in the UK here that is. Using this foundation meant that my concealer has taken a back seat in my makeup routine because it was enough to cover up my dark circles which is pretty amazing. I do like to set my foundation in place with some setting powder as I have combination oily skin. Longevity wise, I work long hour shifts with hardly any time to touch up and this foundation did let a bit of shine through but it was ever so natural looking and it wore off nicely without it being patchy.

Overall, I highly recommend this product to all you girlies out there as it really is truley amazing and a dream to use. I use a buffing brush to blend it in and it gives the most flawless finish ever. The price is not too bad too as there are other foundations by other brands that sets you back a little bit more. Packaging looks beautiful in a frosted bottle but the lid does tend to come off in my makeup bag though.
