This is the first mineral, powder foundation I have ever tried, and I fell in love with it! I have become frustrated with liquid foundations that cake, settle into fine lines, come off on your clothes, or simply don't last. This foundation gives me an evened skin tone, blurs imperfections, allows my skin to breathe, and lasts most of my day. I just wish it was easier to find, and it can be a bit pricey
I got sucked in by a free makeover and ended up buying more than I expected. A little does go along way. A few sweeps all over the face in a circular motion. You don't need too much. They threw in a free makeup brush but it was cheap quality and didn't last long. I ended up with the Foundation, blush, primer, and the 9 stack of eye shadows before I knew it. The foundation has lasted over the years.
I recently purchased the Bella Pierre Foundation. While on the more expensive side, I’ve always paid good money for concealer/foundation so I was comfortable with the price range of the cosmetics. After expertly being “made-up” at a kiosk I was pleasantly surprised. They were no visible signs of wearing a foundation, not under my eyes nor around the mouth area. I was quickly convinced to buy the foundation and give it a shot .
Once I got home, I tried the process myself. It didn’t quite come out as it did at the mall and I was just about ready to let it go. A couple of google searches though provided me with the proper application techniques: let the primer sit for a minute of 2 before adding the powder. And the powder: when they say “buff gently but go around the face a few times” – it does really mean just that: small amounts, and buff the area a few times to get your desired type of coverage (I recommend you do a youtube search to see the techniques). While I’ve always been a huge fan of the Dior products, for the last 3 weeks the application of my foundation has become:
- faster,
- more coverage (I would say flawless comes to mind),
- no mask look,
- natural look
This past weekend I went for a 50K bike ride on a humid day, topped off with a rain shower and 1 hour beach volleyball game. I was beyond amazed to see my foundation looked as if it was applied only an hour ago. I can’t say enough good things about the foundation.
