RETAIL PRICE: Php 475.00
NET WEIGHT : 30 gramsPROS:
* consistency is creamy
* easy to blend and does not dry out too fast
* has spf 10
* feels lightweight and moisturising. I think this is suited for dry to normal skintypes.
* did not fade or cake during the day
* medium-full coverage (buildable)
* did not break me out
* since this foundation is formulated for mature skin it does not settle into fine lines. I haven't noticed that it lessened my fine lines (under eyes) after application as what they claimed but this prevents my undereye concealer from caking.
* pot contains a lot of product
CONS:
* sadly this baby is now discontinued - but they replaced it with the Simply Ageless Foundation.
* sadly this baby is now discontinued - but they replaced it with the Simply Ageless Foundation.
* if you're allergic to Olay - this contains Olay ingredients.
* smells like dishwashing liquid or shampoo
* pot packaging is not hygenic
TIPS:
I use a tiny spatula to scoop a little amount of product in the jar. I prefer to apply this foundation in "layers" (if you want full coverage) using a wedge sponge or foundation brush. Use a damp sponge if you want a sheer coverage. Set with loose powder.
ADDICTION FACTOR:
I really love the texture of this foundation! I first purchased Buff Beige but its a tad dark on me (sadly, there were no testers available) so I went back and purchased Ivory and thank goodness it matches my skintone. I also bought Soft Honey which can also be used for contouring.
RATING :
4 / 5

the reason why I did not purchase this because of the Olay, I know some people are allergic to it so I just can't use this to anybody :)
Oh! Agree with you! Pot packaging not so useful...
this was my HG foundation back in highschool :) it gives amazing coverage plus its budget friendly :)
Great review =)
Was checking this out before pa but I never brought myself to buy it as I am allergic to Olay. But glad it works for you. :P
