Natural Beige Foundation
“the name definitely fits the foundation! doesn’t feel like like anything in my skin. it’s a more liquidy formula than some other foundations but i have no problem with that and it blends out beautifully with a makeup sponge. i love the semi blurring effect that it has. it is still very natural on the skin. the spf 15 doesn’t really do much but the foundation itself is beautiful. i would describe it as a light to medium coverage that is somewhat buildable”
Light Medium Concealer
“Does it’s job but I found this colour way too light and didn’t match me as well at others and it stayed about as long as my concealers from Too Faced and Beauty Blender”
Warm Ivory Foundation
“The perfect powder foundation! Blurs and mattifies without leaving the skin dry and flat, stays on all day and brings a beautiful finish to the skin”
