Hey Gorgeous Girls and Guys,
I’ve been all about the hair products lately, but I couldn’t resist trying out the new foundation range from Clarins; Clarins Everlasting Foundation with SPF 15, when a sample landed on my desk last week. Where better to test it out than on a day when I have to rush straight from work to a friend’s birthday with no opportunity to touch-up my make-up.
Clarins claim that this foundation will give you 15 hours of absolute perfection with a 100% natural mineral shield SPF15 to boot as well – did it last that long? Mostly! The easy to blend, lighter-than-you-think formula, feels like silk on your skin with a light matte finish. This foundation is not so thick that you look like you’ve caked it on, but certainly not as fine as a tinted moisturiser. It comfortably sits on the skin and is relatively non-transferable.
My foundation looked fresh throughout the working day and most of the way into the evening, I did touch it up a little to cover up blemishes, dark circles and around my mouth (messy eater) during the evening but overall I was really impressed.
When I took it off my skin still felt healthy thanks to the super-hydrating plant-based micro-patch that seals in moisture, reducing dehydration. My one criticism would be the scent, it smells of fresh melon which is personally not to my taste, thankfully the scent doesn’t linger so it’s not a big issue but more of a niggle.
The Clarins Everlasting Foundation with SPF15 has 10 different shades in the range so that you can find your ideal match.
My gorgeous rating: 4 out of 5 – It’s just the scent that lets it down, but compared to other brands that can smell chemically, the fresh scent may be a welcome change from that.
