Surprisingly Good Coverage

I was skeptical when I first applied the Urban Decay Face Bond Waterproof Foundation. It went on very thin and didn't seem to cover much. However, once it was applied it "kicked in" I guess and covered everything very well! It's very lightweight and barely feels like you're wearing anything at all. I went out for the night and it lasted all night through sweating and everything. I really like this and would buy it for sure!

Best Foundation Ever and I am not Kidding!

Thank you so much @Butterly and @UrbanDecay for the opportunity to test this incredible FaceBond foundation! I am so blessed to have this opportunity to test this new product in return for an honest review.

I am truly inlove with this FaceBond foundation. There is nothing else like it. It gives your face a makeover to die for! There is no need for setting sprays, powders or even concealers. It covers my freckles, dark circles under my eyes and even sunspots. It gives you a medium natural matte coverage which is buildable but I find you do not need a lot. The 3% niacinimide serum also keeps you hydrated. You can use this FaceBond overtop of all your skincare without worrying about it caking, or settling in your wrinkles. You can apply after your morning beauty ritual using either your fingers, brush or a makeup sponge. I prefer using a makeup sponge and my fingers. And when you are done that, there is no need for setting spray or powders because this formula self sets!!! Even the new patent pending applicator keeps air from entering this product to keep this magical formula perfect from start to finish. And this is hard to believe but it is sweatproof and waterproof. You will never again have to worry about getting your makeup ruined in the rain or reapplying after swimming or workouts. You will stay beautiful and flawless all day long.

First day I wore this, I got lots of compliments and I am sure you will too. No need to shop for any other foundation. Trust me, you are going to love this! It’s a miracle in a bottle.

Matte Perfection for Humid Climate

Let's dive into my experience with Urban Decay Face Bond Foundation . I have dry, sensitive skin due to a prescription cream. I tested this foundation on both chilly, dry days and a humid, rainy one, wearing it for 10 hours each time.

**Foundation Claims:**
The foundation boasts a matte finish, medium coverage, transfer-proof, smudge proof formula, self-setting capabilities, and features niacinamide as a key ingredient.

**Experience:**
Verdict? It's fantastic for humid climates. It feels feather-light, even in sweltering conditions, and renders a flawless complexion under all lighting conditions—HD, flash, and natural daylight. The packaging is clever too—a nozzle dropper design for mess-free application. Be quick with blending though, as it sets fast. I recommend applying it in small sections. I applied this personally with a dense face brush. While I didn't experience any issues with niacinamide, it's worth noting that some people may have sensitivities. On extreme cold days where my face can't handle niacinamide, I'd skip this foundation.

**Performance:**
On dry days, it clung to dry patches, so I upped my skin prep next time. On the humid day, it held up even after cooking. Impressively, it didn’t settle into fine lines or crease under my eyes, maintaining its true color throughout the day. While it stood the test of waterproofing admirably, it did exhibit some wear after 12 hours, albeit gracefully. A flash test proved its natural matte finish, even at the end of a long day.

**Price & Recommendation:**
At $57 plus tax, it's pricey but worth it for the elegant finish and longevity. Compared to others I own which is almost the same amount but just as expensive, this wears better than the rest. I’d reserve this for special events, especially when I’ll be photographed a lot.

This formula is a wow!!!

This foundation provides incredible coverage that is buildable and blendable. After 8hrs of wear the foundation does not clog my pores and with the right setting powder (even though you don't need one) left my skin looking flawless. The formula is mattifying and waterproof, and I found that even after a long day it did not look oily at the end of the day. Also, the dispensing system is incredible and provides just the right amount of foundation. In terms of drawbacks, there's very little to fault with this foundation. Some may find the initial price point a bit steep, but considering its performance and longevity, it's a worthwhile investment for anyone serious about their makeup. I will be repurchasing this foundation in the future but in a lighter shade.

Targeted for oily skin

Really nice coverage and application! I do feel like it is not suitable for dry skin because it does look quite dry on the skin. It’s definitely workable and I used my most hydrating primer but still looks more dry than I would like

It is really smooth and radiant finish.

It is such a lightweight and waterproof foundation. It is transfer resistant and no need to use setting power. It has 3% Niacinamide which helps with skin texture.
It is really helpful with dark circles and acne. —Vegan and Cruelty Free

I tried this foundation for a weekend everyday for 8 hours. It settled into my skin after 30 minutes. It is really smooth and radiant finish. Medium Coverage. It did get a bit oily afterwards but i personally like a bit oil on my skin cuz it adds a glow up. Highly recommended

Magic foundation

This stuff is fantastic! I did half my face first to see the difference. Goes on amazingly easy, spread out lovely. No caking and creasing lines. The application is smooth and perfect! Covers reddness and feels wonderful!

I would love to give it another chance

Besides being fooled by this shade (20 Medium olive), the foundation is nice. @urbandecaycosmetics and @thisisbutterly sent over the new Face Bond foundation Gratis

It is self setting so I didn't need to apply a powder to set (although I didn't feel safe not putting a powder)

It is waterproof proof and sweat proof but IS transfer proof if you really rub your face. I took tissue and blotted my face and nothing came off but it came off on the tissue when I rubbed.

3% niacinamide to improve skin texture with regular use

I didn't use a primer, just went straight in with the foundation. My face did feel a bit tight but not uncomfortable. I would just need to use a heavier moisturizer and primer when using this foundation because it dries down.

This foundation is very much comparable to Estee Lauder double Wear. Medium and a half coverage. My marks still showed through even after layering the foundation.

As for the shade, while applying it was lighter than my skin and looked real olive. Once it dried down it looked really good. It didn't look too light or too dark, ( maybe a tad yellow) But once I went outside I could see that It did oxidize and was pinky red towards my neck.

I do like this foundation, just need to find a suitable match.

My new obsession

I absolutely love this foundation , works great in my mature dry skin, didn’t separate, no transfer, lasted a full ten hours still looked great. Didn’t seep into lines, didn’t get dry or patchy. I am obsessed
