Bourjois Radiance Reveal Healthy Mix Foundation Dark Bronze

I would call this my favorite Drug Store Foundation of All Time but that would be an understatement. It's one of a handful of drug store foundations that I've even found wearable (I hate most of them). It might even be favorite foundation of all time.I like a light natural finish, but I want something that does even out a bit of skin tone issue AND stay on all day without breaking down or going funky in any way. This checks all those boxes. It also doesn't emphasize pores.My skin is light but warmer and I find it's hard to find something that doesn't look either too pink or too dark or weirdly gray on my skin. This is a lovely warm but not overly warm tone.If comparing this to the serum healthy mix foundation, this is about a half shade darker than the Vanilla in that range. Also, this provides slightly more coverage, but the serum is a lighter feeling more hydrating formula. I prefer this one of the two mainly bc it is a better color match for me (though I do intend to try the Serum in shade 53 to compare). Sometimes I mix the two to gain a little of the hydrating aspect of the Serum one without sacrificing the color match. They are very close in color, but this "Regular" version is darker. Both come in pump bottles, so it's simple to control the same amount of product daily.This does not oxidize and grow dark on my skin. I feel the finish only grows more natural through the day. Sometimes I think it's the TINIEST bit dark when I put it on, and then...a few minutes later, it looks perfect. And it's STILL THERE at the end of the day. Doesn't budge.Pump bottle, light fruity non chemical smell.I hate so many foundations. I hate the very look of them. And I love this one. (But if you like a super full coverage very made up look, you may not like this. Likewise if your skin is very cool toned, you might not like the color match.)

I lived in the UK and became absolutely hooked on Bourjois Repulpant Collagen Boosting foundation. The formula was so light so I felt like I was wearing nothing but it gave me the light coverage I needed. Once I moved back to the US, I discovered that this product is not sold in the US and has actually been discontinued. So I chose the Radiance Reveal foundation, hoping it would be close to the Repulpant I was using. While it is not exactly the same, it is pretty close: very lightweight, goes on easily and gives me the light coverage I need. I have very fair skin and bought No. 51 Vanille Clair and it is a perfect match for my skin tone. I tend to break out with certain foundations but with this one, so far, absolutely no breakouts. Also, I am 49 and even though I do not have many wrinkles (good genetics), in regards to the few that I do have, this foundation does not settle in and make them look worse; in fact, it helps to erase them.

After reading about this product I was excited to receive and try it out. I can't tell you how disappointed I was. It's as thin as water, providing no coverage at all and didn't help with dry skin. Left it on my face for about 4 hours and as time went by it only got worse. May work if you are under 25 and have no discoloration or age spots. Definitely not for older persons with dry skin. No coverage at all.

I currently have 4-5 high end foundations in my cabinet that I sort of rotate, but this foundation is my go-to!!!! I LOVE it. It blends wonderfully and gives a very natural glow and finish - looks like I have flawless skin!!!! I am blonde/blue/28 yrs old with oily and somewhat blemish-prone skin, but this foundation does not make me break out, and really makes my skin look great. I do set it with a finishing powder if I'm heading to work, etc. b/c it can make me appear shiney after a few hours. However, every foundation I have ever tried has done this. Nothing a little blotting or a touch of powder can't fix. Most times at work I don't even have time to re-powder, but setting it well in the morning is good enough.I can't believe how much I've gravitated towards this foundation. I really like some of my others, too, but keep gravitating back to this one. Others I have tried: Revlon colorstay, make-up forever HD, sephora long lasting formula, Clinique CC cream, and Korres, to name a few. Somehow this lovely formula has become my staple, and I'm super happy about it. The packaging and pump is nice too, and it has lovely mild scent. I do not think you'll be disappointed! Wish I could find it here in the US - I'm hooked!!!

Was excited for this foundation since I have VERY pale skin.The foundation itself is great, feels nice on the skin and smells wonderful.But, way too dark. As is every other foundation out there...at least for me. :(

I've heard a lot of good things about this product, and I'm not disappointed! I really like the consistency and the smell is pretty nice too. It goes on fairly easily, but I suggest that you moisturize well before putting it on, or it can have a cakey-effect. It has decent coverage, and you can build it up for sure. It has more of a matte look, or at least for me it does. It blends in nicely as well.As for the color, I had to take a guess since they don't sell this product where I'm from. The color is a little bit lighter than I expected, so I put on some darker powder over it. And since it's winter here, it's not too big of a problem. I'll have to try the darker shade next time.

I do like the color and finish, but it arrived with a broken seal and it smells awful. Literally like rotten fruit. I put it on over an hour ago and I can still smell that gross smell. I am so disappointed because I was really looking forward to this foundation. I will keep using it over the next couple of weeks and see if the foundation makes up for the way it smells.
