    Looks beautiful and last all day

    After testing it out a few times, I’m seriously impressed. It stays put all day, just like they promised, and feels so lightweight. Plus, shoutout to the niacinamide addition for keeping my natural oils in check and ensuring the foundation lasts.

    It’s definitely a medium buildable coverage and that precision tip? Genius. Makes application a breeze without any mess.

    The colour match is spot-on for my skin and I’m in love with my finished look! Feeling confident and radiant!

    Great coverage well still feeling light weight!

    I absolutely adore the Urban Decay Face Bond Foundation for so many reasons, but what truly sets it apart is its dual function as both a makeup and skincare powerhouse. With 3% niacinamide, it goes beyond just covering imperfections – it actively nurtures your skin. Niacinamide is a wonder ingredient that promotes keratin production, keeping your skin firm and resilient. Plus, it helps fortify your skin's lipid barrier, locking in precious moisture – a godsend for all skin types, especially those like mine, prone to eczema.

    While I found that applying a moisturizer beforehand helped with the application, the results were undeniable. My skin felt noticeably softer after wearing Urban Decay's Face Bond Foundation. The coverage is fantastic, yet it feels incredibly lightweight – a dream combination! I particularly love that I can build up the coverage and achieve a radiant matte finish.

    What truly impressed me is the inclusive shade range – as someone with olive undertones, finding the perfect match was always a struggle until now. This foundation not only flawlessly covers any redness in my complexion but also adds a subtle glow that I can't get enough of. (Light Medium Cool Olive)

    Now, let's talk about the packaging – the squeeze dropper style bottle is genius! Sure, there was a learning curve with an air bubble causing some initial mess, but once I got the hang of it, it became a low-maintenance essential in my makeup routine.

    In short, Urban Decay's Face Bond Foundation is more than just makeup – it's a skincare savior that caters to every aspect of my complexion, leaving me feeling confident and radiant every day.

    Smooth application

    The foundation shade is a great match for my skintone and I really like the smooth application. I like using a brush to blend the foundation in and it works really well. The foundation tend to stay on for the whole day but my skin did feel a little oil later on in the day.

    Perfect Summer Formula

    This foundation exceeded by expectation, it is long lasting, smudge and transfer resistant and I love that it is water and sweat proof making it the perfect summer foundation. It's not heavy and doesn't provide a full coverage effect but it smooths my overall skin tone and evens it out. I love this product!! #UDFaceBond #UrbanDecayCanada #gotitfree

    So light on my skin!

    urbandecaycosmetics released the perfect long-wearing waterproof foundation just in time for Summer! It's light coverage with the ability to build to a medium coverage. What I loved about this product was that it felt like my skin the entire time I wore it! It didn't smudge or transfer to any of my clothing and although it may be too soon to say, but my skin felt smoother; it must be the niacinamide in it! Can't wait to test this out in the Summer time.

    Good Coverage

    This is the first ever self setting foundation and it really does not smudge at all! The colour matching is so perfect, it apply on my skin so naturally. I do feel like it drys up really quickly but a little bit of setting spray can help blend better.

    Matte and lightweight

    I put this foundation through the ringer this past week. Nothing says stress test than the biggest tax deadline of the year followed by 6 hrs of partying! UD claims this foundation is up to 24 hr transfer-resistant, waterproof, and sweat-proof. The longest I wore it was 16 hrs and it had worn away from my face where I didn’t have blush or bronzer applied.

    It is a solid medium buildable coverage and was able to cover any hyper-pigmentation I have. The self-setting finish leaves a blurring effect but it can cling to dry patches. I would not recommend this foundation for anyone with dry/dehydrated skin. I have combo leaning oily skin and found I still had to prep with a rich moisturizer so it didn’t look cakey.

    Verdict: I give this a 2.5/5, I prefer more of a natural skin like finish and this was very matte. Although it was lightweight on the skin which is not typically what I associate with a matte foundation with this level of coverage. If you like a matte finish and have combo-oily skin this may be the foundation for you.

    It lasts so long!

    This product sticks so well I’m amazed. I apply it to freshly moisturized skin and it applies beautifully and is thin enough that it covers without looking or feeling heavy.

    I liked it

    I liked how the product dried down super quick. It decently does self set, so for travelling it’s great as it wouldn’t need powder to set it. As for the wear test, it did start to break apart near my nose
