Review: Seventeen Miracle Matte Foundation ❤

For a long time now I've been using the same foundation, Max Factor Lasting Performance Foundation in 100 Fair. But today I was shopping and decided to try something different! First off, I think this packaging is so cute! It reminds me of some other product but I can't for the life of me remember what it is. This is Seventeen's Miracle Matte Foundation. It comes in four shades, Soft Ivory (which is this one), Natural, Honey and Porcelain. I bought this for €8.95 (£5.99) from Boots.

The best thing about this foundation is the fact that it is a matte foundation. I've been looking for one of these for a long time! I find it such a hassle to have to put on a foundation then spend ages getting rid of the shine by putting on mounds of powder. With this foundation I only need a very small amount of powder, if any at all, to give that extra bit of coverage which I like but may not be necessary for other people. I apply this foundation with a Real Techniques stippling brush.

As well as being a matte foundation, this one is also oil free - which is good for those who have naturally oily skin. My skin is neither oily or dry but I find it sits really well :) I like foundations that don't have a greasy consistency and this one doesn't at all. The foundation claims to be sixteen hour wear and I haven't yet had to leave it on for that long but for the length of time I've needed it, it hasn't budged or melted away in the hot weather!

For the price and the amount I think this is a really nice foundation and would definitely get this again! It's a lot cheaper than my usual foundation which is €15.99 and I find it's almost as good, if not the same. I would definitely recommend this foundation for someone looking to try something new, or if you're not looking for a matte foundation, Max Factor Lasting Finish is another great product.

Hope you enjoyed the review, any other requests for reviews or any other blog posts feel free to let me know! All links are at the top of my blog :)

Have an amazing day lovelies
