LA Girl PRO Coverage Illuminating Foundation - TAN (GLM649)

Lovely, I love this product, it's really nice and it arrived 2 weeks before estimated date. I will order more

The quality of this foundation really shocked me. I've tried far worse foundations that were far more expensive.I have very pale skin, and over the years, in a thus far fruitless attempt to find a foundation that's light enough for me, I've had to buy a lot of white mixers to lighten things up. Overall I've found white foundations and mixers often have a weird grey or pink tone to them and can be much more drying than other foundations, but this one is a true white and i didn't find it to be at all drying - even on my horrendously dry skin.On its own it has a lovely natural fresh finish, nothing strong enough to alter the finish of the whatever you mix it with. It did a great job of lightening foundations without altering the undertone.If you're looking for a great white mixer to lighten foundations, i cannot recommend this enough.

So I’ve been testing this product for a couple days now and heres my honest review -Pros: amazing buildable coverage (covers my blemishes & rosacea), the formula is perfect so creamy and blends like a dream, this product does NOT oxidise so no need to worry about being orange ladies and gents! It does not separate on the face or go patchy when applying other products on top, long lasting & sweat proof! I wear my makeup for 12+ hours a day and I didn’t see any creasing or patchiness at all!Cons: I have only one con and that is the shade porcelain isn’t what you’d really expect (this is coming from a pale girl) it’s more on the warm undertone / tanned spectrum so keep that in mind! I’d reccomend purchasing foundation lightening drops if you are very pale.I am so happy I purchased this foundation overall, it’s become my favourite! Bearing in mind I’ve used foundations from all different brands high end & drugstore (Dior,makeup revolution,L’Oréal,YSL...) the formula & coverage is the best and what tops it off is that it doesn’t oxidise like most foundations, the price is amazing for this product, I would definitely reccomend purchasing this!

Nothing has ever really tempted me away from Max Factor before, as I find other budget foundations to be pretty naff.I really like the super-subtle iridescent effect in this. Most 'glowy' foundation looks metallic or greasy. This is relatively high coverage, so you can adjust the amount you use for something more subtle. Wears perfectly through the day. However, I'm pale but not extremely so, plus I use light fake tan most days, and the lightest shade Fair is a perfect match for me, with warm-neutral undertones. So clearly it won't be suitable for very fair skin.

Goes on lovely and lasts until removed .I would go for a shade lighter than you normally wear as it has strong pigment . If you don't like fake tanning your face this is ideal if you go for a shade darker than you wear in summer . Great Value for money and it has a glow about it not Matt and dull but not really shiny either..I will buy it again ..but it takes very little coverage wise so use sparingly and it will probably last for ages

Purchased to lighten my usual make-up for costuming, as costume make-up tends to look horrible on my skin, and stark white looks so cheap outside of clown face - it works really well! Using it at a 1-1 ratio was a perfect mix for me, but didn't change the consistency or coverage of my usual foundation.I think the biggest issue anyone might have is what type of foundation you're mixing with - FYI it blends really really well with Revlon Colorstay foundation for combination/oily skin, not so great with the same foundation for normal skin (too watery)Hope it helps!
