Foundation is one of those things I really struggle with – I find they’re either too dark, too heavy, don’t last long enough. Literally, foundations are the bane of my life. But, for someone who gets randomly annoying red skin, I really rely on foundation.
When I saw Maybelline had come out with a new version of their Fit Me foundation, I was very excited. Why? Because these foundations go super pale – and I am pale af. So, automatically it has removed my biggest issue – foundations looking really dark on me. It’s a matte finish, without being too drying, it was easy to apply (I used a damp Real Techniques Miracle Complexion sponge). I would say it’s medium coverage, you build it, but it will start to look a little heavy. It feels comfortable and easy to wear on the skin, and basically on first application this foundation is perfection in a bottle.
However, thats when it starts to you let you down. For a matte foundation, you look pretty oily after only a few hours – and I have dry skin if anything, so that was weird. However, with a bit of powder, it’s easily fixed. And then it starts to wear off. Don’t get me wrong, it wears off really nicely – like it doesn’t cling to dry patches, or go weirdly patchy, it just fades. I’ve tried a number of primers, but I just can’t get this foundation to last more than 6 hours – which, for someone who works for 8 hour shifts.. this really isn’t helpful. However, if I’m going out for the evening, or if I’m only going to have my makeup on for a few hours, this in 100% the foundation I am going for.
It’s just a shame it doesn’t last – or at least, it doesn’t last on me.
Have you tried this foundation?

I have dry skin and I hardly ever see people review foundations for people like me! Thank you so much for this review, I’m going to check it out now π xx
I really like this foundation π
I swear by this foundation! I definitely see what you mean by it getting oily pretty quickly though – it definitely makes no sense for it to be called matte! Love it regardless though haha
my latest post β‘
Yeah me too! If they just called it Fit Me (minus the matte bit), then there wouldn’t really be an issue π
LOVE THIS FOUNDATION SO FREAKING MUCH!!!!! UGH & the concealer is everything too!!!!!!!
The concealer doesn’t go light enough for me… because I’m pale af π but I like the formula π
I agree, its not the most mattifying foundation considering its called matte…
It’s still lovely though π
Great review, I have to say I was disappointed with this as well. I need foundations to actually live up to their claims of lasting all day but this didn’t for me π
Yeah I know, although I have to say I do still really like it π
