LAKME INVISIBLE FINISH FOUNDATION REVIEW : SHADE 2

Hi,

It has been quite sometime since I  stopped wearing foundation because I wanted to try out some BB creams that became quite a rage since its introduction in the Indian market. After trying quite a few brands of BB creams I now want to go back to my old foundation routine. I have tried most of the drug store brands and I wanted something to keep my face less oily this time around.So I wanted to experiment because every time I buy a foundation it either makes my skin dewy , more oily or it has less staying power.

I was not sure which product to pick up but somehow ended up buying the Lakme Invisible Finish Foundation. All thanks to flipkart, as i was bored and just browsing the net when i saw 40% off in the beauty section. Even without the discount this product will not burn a hole in your pocket .It retails at Rs 240  , which is affordable and it worth every penny ( trust me!!)

So, here is  my review of the foundation.

I bought this foundation in shade 2 because i have fair rather pale skin with lots of yellow undertones. I have to say that i lovvvvvvvvvvvvved this product. It gave my skin a very soft and velvety matte look (without looking cakey) and let me tell you i have super oily skin. (it works on dry skin as well) It has a water based formula so it will not cause any breakouts and will blend easily. It provides medium coverage but  it is buildable. I applied a thin layer and then added one more layer .It blends seamlessly into your skin leaving you with a flawless and even toned look.

This foundation as it claims is 

• water based
• has SPF 8
• perfect blending for flawless almost invisible finish

The consistency of this foundation is a little runny but it comes with a spatula attached to the lid so it becomes easy to apply.You can also use a foundation brush or a wet sponge to apply the foundation evenly.

However,this foundation has 8 different shades. So pick out which shade is closet to your skin tone

Here a little guide  for u to help you pick the correct shade-

shade 1-   fair skin with pink undertones

shade 2-   fair skin with yellow undertones

shade 4  - medium skin  with yellow undertones

shade 5-   medium skin with pink undertones

shade 7-  dark/ dusky skin with yellow undertones

shade 8-  dark/ dusky with pink undertones

So ladies pick your shade and get a flawless look .Suitable for everyday and office wear .Must try!!!!!

TIP : Always choose foundation shade closest to your skin tone.  Remember foundation is used to even out your skin tone and hide blemishes or marks so do not make the mistake of choosing lighter or darker shade.  It should natural and not like you are wearing a mask.  If you do choose slightly different shade then go for only a shade lighter or darker than your natural skin tone.  Use concealer to hide any marks or blemishes after your foundation routine for maximum coverage.Set it with pressed or loose  powder of your choice.
