Review w/ Before + After pics
Stila Cosmetics recently came out with a few new products, the Aqua Glow range.
Consisting of blushes, primer, concealer & the foundation.
With new, innovative formulas - Water/Gel based & Serum like products.
The new products, as well as a few older ones (like the Liquid Lipsticks) have been
repackaged in gold & have a new luxurious feel.
The golden new style is what caught my eye to this foundation, also the name -
Aqua Glow, Serum Foundation I thought "Serum Foundation? Hmm?"
In my Sephora cart it went and $45usd later, I hoped I would like it...
It's available in 10 shades (I got "Fair Light") & you get 30ml of product.
♥
Stila promises Medium - Full buildable coverage with this foundation,
and a natural, radiant finish. It has advanced multi-reflective colour pigments
to instantly even skin tone & blur imperfections, pores & fine lines.
With Ionized water, advanced Hyaluronic Acid & Essential minerals,
the Serum formula helps hydrate and nourish for glowing skin with healthy radiance.
One cool thing about this foundation, it has a Drop Applicator & the pump
rises when you twist open the lid! Very cool!
♥Before & After♥
So as usual, I applied with a Beauty Blender on one side, & Flat Top Brush on the other,
I used ONE pump for my whole face & am pretty impressed with the coverage!
BEFORE AFTER
Beauty Blender:
Medium coverage, evened out skin tone & blemish scarring is mostly covered.
I feel the BB causes this foundation to sit on top of your skin as oppose to blending in & setting properly.
You can see above, the right side of my face is shinier & it felt like the foundation was slipping off my face
Flat Top Brush
Full, Natural looking coverage, even skin tone & imperfections are covered.
I definitely prefer using a brush with this foundation, it buffed & blended it in to my skin properly. You will however need to set it with a powder to ensure it lasts the day.
It's very radiant & dewy, I wouldn't recommend this product for those with oilier skin. I have normal/combination skin & I still think this would be better for me in the colder months when my skin needs more hydration. At the moment it's Summer where I live & I can't say it lasts very long in the hot weather haha! I Love the finish & coverage, but I think the serum base causes the foundation to slip around, it feels like I've just put fresh beauty oil on that doesn't soak in...
For now I'm rating it 3/5 and will have to try it in Autumn/Winter
If you're interested in the Aqua Glow Blushes, check out my review
on the one I got last year, very interesting idea for a blush..
