Milani Cream to Powder Foundation
Hiya!
This is a post that’s been in my drafts for a year. Since this is still something that can be purchased I’m going to go ahead and post.
So this is a product I saw all over Instagram and everyone was loving it. Also, it was said to be a dupe of KVD’s Good Apple Foundation. Since I like the brand I decided to place an order. I actually got a couple of things. I will be reviewing it in several posts.
It comes in a a little compact as most powder foundation do.
I got 2 different shades since I wasn’t sure which would work best for my skin tone. I got Warm Porcelain and Porcelain.
The top one is a shade lighter. They both matched my skin tone pretty well.
Here is the process of applying it to my face.
Top Left-just my Primed face.
Bottom Left- Half my face with the foundation. You can tell the coverage it has over my redness and random imperfections.
Right- the product completely applied to my face. This is without concealer or anything. So you can see it does a good job of giving me some medium to almost full coverage in some places. There are just some parts that need a little extra.
The product is excellent since it’s light when you apply it and it’s buildable. I have used this one several times in the past year since I got it. I have used it alone, with Concealer, with various setting powders, blushes, and Contours. It has been hit-and-miss for me. I feel like I have to apply a couple of layers for full coverage but it makes my face feel a little greasy if I don’t set it with powder after. Either way, I feel like it doesn’t really last on my face as a long-wear foundation. It could just be my skin that it just doens’t work with.
I have used it several times since writing this post initially and have about the same reaction. It is a little better depending on how much I use. I have longer wear with less product than applying multiple layers. However, I am still on the fence about this product. So I wouldn’t repurchase it for myself. However, there are a lot of people online who really loved it and it worked for them.
This one is $10.99 and comes in 21 shades. Honestly, it’s not a total loss for this price if it doesn’t work for you.
