This week I decided to give in and try a different foundation, over the years I have become a Bobbi Brown girl. I use two of their foundations at the moment both the Moisture Rich SPF 15 and Luminous Moisturizing Foundations. However after a brief holiday earlier this month my normal foundation is a little too light for my skin tone and I am not quite into my summer tinted moisturiser. Any excuse to buy something new!!
So I bought....
Yep, I gave in to the masses and purchased Revlon's Photo Ready Foundation in 005 Natural Beige, which is a tiny bit darker that the Sand shade I usually purchase at Bobbi Brown. It is a slightly more pinkie toned foundation so is really good for warming my skin up.

I am loving the pump action on the bottle, it makes for a much less messy application process. I have noticed right at the top of the bottle there appears to be a little colour separation going on, but this doesn't seem to have affected the product that is being dispensed.
I use flat foundation brush to apply my foundation and then I usually buff it out with a little powder. I felt this product need a little more work to get it to blend into my skin but when it was there it was really quite nice. My concerns over the glitter particles in the formula where unfounded, yes it is there but it is very sheer and illuminates my face. I even did the Twilight check by standing in the sunshine and asking my SO if I looked like a vampire (he didn't get that so I had to be a little more specific), his comment was that my face looked really smooth, but not too smooth that I looked like David Cameron (wax faced, British politician).

So in conclusion I give this product a thumbs up and I will probably be using this for a few weeks or at least until my skin colour fade back to the normal pasty grey shade!
