Makeup Forever Mat Velvet + Foundation


Because (wow my English teacher would kill me if she saw me beginning a sentence with that word lol) I love foundations so much and was looking for a matte finish for the holidays, I decided to try the Makeup Forever Mat Velvet + Foundation.

CAN I SCREAM? LOVE!!!



This stuff is amazing! It is very buildable and goes on smooth. It dries matte as expected and surprisingly last through out the day! I have horrible acne scars so coverage is indeed a must and this foundation delivers.  I used #75 coffee shade. This foundation will be a staple in my collection :)

Wanna watch what I'm talking about? Vid is below :).

Urban Decay Naked Skin Foundation Review & Demo

Urban Decay recently released a foundation called NAKED Skin and I wanted to give it a try.

My biggest concerns with any foundation is that it must cover my acne scars, and so far it takes 2 pumps of the NAKED Skin foundation to do so. Overall it is a nice foundation, but color variations need more work.

Here are some Pros:

  • Light weight
  • Good coverage
  • Oil Free
  • Easy Application
Here are some Cons:
  • Matching issues. There needs to be more color options for people of color
  • Breaks down past the 5-6hr mark (on me)
  • Must be "warmed up" with a colored setting powder as it appears ghostly without it.
  • Fails to look like "skin." You will look like you are wearing makeup
Here is the video demo:

Have you tried this foundation?
