Great coverage!
Now when I first received this full-sized sample or Urban Decay's "Face Bond" foundation to try, I honestly did not believe it would match my skintone at all. Despite going through the selection process carefully, the medium shade that showed up in my mailbox looked far too dark. I applied it to my wrist and nodded in disappointment: yes, it did indeed look too dark. But, just for the hell of it, I applied the product to my face using my foundation brush and, boy, was I wrong...
This shade matched my tanned skin (thanks, Florida!) to a T! Once I recovered from my ecstatic jump of joy, I took a better look at everything the product had to offer to provide my honest opinion. This waterproof foundation contains 3% niacinamide, which is a form of vitamin B3 (also found in foods such as meat, green vegetables, eggs, etc.). Unlike heavier foundations, it felt like I had nothing at all on my face and it looks smooth and very natural-looking. True to its claims, I did not have to apply any setting powder. In fact, it dried very quickly to the touch which is sort of a double-edged sword. While I didn't need to wait for it to dry to apply other products (blush, bronzer, etc), I found you had to work very fast to blend it out.
For its size, $57 is quite the steep pricetag but like most Urban Decay products, you get what you pay for. Admittedly, I own two Urban Decay palettes and have hit pan quite on more than one eyeshadow tin, which speaks to their high-quality products. The applicator is pretty nifty, but I worry it will make getting those last drops of foundation at the bottom of the bottle nearly impossible to get to. I guess we'll see about that when I finish up the bottle, which I most certainly will!!
Thank you Butterly for the opportunity to review this sample in exchange for my honest opinion!

Summer Staple
I already know that this new foundation from Urban Decay will be a go-to this summer! The matte finish and medium coverage had me feeling confident all day long. It held up on my combination skin type throughout the entire day without a need for touch-up.

Best Foundation for Summer
As an acne-prone, oily skin girlie, I was super excited to try this out and I was not at all disappointed. The shade match was perfect, it has a really good consistency- does not feel heavy on the skin and yet it has good coverage. My redness and acne scars disappeared like magic. And because it’s sweat-proof and humidity-proof, my makeup looked flawless even after 8 hours even when it was over 40 degrees outside! I absolutely love the sleek travel-friendly packaging. This is my new go-to product for sure.

Lightweight and Beautiful on the skin
Welcoming this great foundation to my spring/summer makeup routine and a staple in my makeup bag for my summer vacay💜It is a very lightweight waterproof foundation that has skincare benefits of a serum. It has 3% of one of my favourite skincare ingredients; Niacinamide 😍 I love how it does not require to be set by powder and provides a soft blurring effect without taking away the glow. To me it is more medium-coverage than full (it is buildable though) and the finish is satin than matte. Also, LOVE the bottle, it has a dropper that helps you get the exact amount of product you want without any mess or waste. Mine is in the colour 10 Light Neutral. I recommend it for those with normal, combination and oily skin!

Triple Powerhouse Foundation!
I was gifted the incredible Face Bond foundation courteousy of Urban Decay, and it is a triple-power sensation!
I don't usually do full-face makeup anymore because I have a hard time finding a foundation that isn't cakey, heavy, or dry on my skin. UD's Face Bond is excellent because it offers medium, can't feel coverage. The lightweight formula is perfect for my needs! I'm also very low maintenance, so being able to apply this with a no-mess applicator bottle and my fingers is a huge bonus.
I would probably get a lighter shade during winter and spring months, but this will be perfect for my sun-kissed skin this summer. I absolutely love this!

RAIN PROOF
Tried this when it was raining today. Let me tell you. She is budgeproof! She didn’t move at all. Making sure that you apply a good layer on your skin, it adheres so much better without any primer or setting spray!

Best of the best
I'm a non foundation person. I don't like how they look on my face and how they are heavy to it. They also break my skin out & irritates it. Today I've tried UD Face Bond foundation and I was shocked. I loved the packaging so much. Then I tried it after my morning routine, it's literally feels like a serum. Very lightweight, blends in no time & I didn't need a brush or a sponge to blend it!! It blends nicely to the skin with my own fingers.. If you're like me hate heavy foundations you will definitely love it as I do.

Foundation that lasts
This foundation's shade blends in nicely with my skin tone. It is also light in texture and doesn't feel heavy on my skin. I left it on the whole day and it still doesn't feel dry or oily. I also liked that it's sweat proof so it doesn't smudge even on hot days. Great size to carry around when I'm travelling too
