Bourjois Healty Mix Serum Foundation

Bourjois Healty Mix Serum Foundation

One of the best high street foundations I came across so far. A really affordable foundation for every day.The foundation is in Boots and Superdrug for £10,99 and I would say it´s light coverage but you can build it up to medium without looking to heavy on your skin.
The colour range with 6 shades is especially great for light to medium skin tones. I am using mostly shade 52 Vanille but sometime in the winter 51 Vanille Clair when my skin is really light.
I also use the shade 51 Vanille Clair to mix into other foundations which are maybe a little dark for me, so that I can find a perfect colour match.
I apply the product usually with a buffing brush but it´s also possible to apply with fingers.
It gives a nice fresh, healthy and dewy finish to the face and looks natural without sticking to dry patches and cramping up around the nose areas. A perfect foundation for my dry skin.
The smell of the serum foundation is fruity but no too scented.
Personal I am really picky when it comes to packaging. There is always something I might not like, but the package of the Bourjois Serum Foundation is nearly perfect ;)
The slim plastic bottle is 30ml, so it´s perfect for traveling. The bottle is transparent so that you are also aware of how much product is left.
It´s got a nice pump, which is easy to control, so you’re never left with to much product on your hand (I use one to two pumps depending on how much coverage I want).
All around a great product for daily use.

Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation

A really affordable foundation for day and night.
The foundation is available in Boots and Superdrug for £9,99 and I would say it´s a medium coverage with a semi matt finish.
The colour range with 8 shades is a little better for slightly darker skin tones. I am using shade 52 Vanille, but sometimes in the summer mixed with the Bourjois Bronzing Cream to get an even darker shade. This also helps to get my foundation looking more radiant and glowy. The foundation is a little matt for my dry skin, so it can stick to dry patches after a long day of wearing. A good layer of moisturizer and maybe a primer is helpful.
I apply the product usually with a buffing brush so that the foundation looks more natural and sits not just on top of the skin.
The smell of the serum foundation is fruity but not to scented.
The product comes in a 30ml glass bottle. I prefer glass rather then plastic, but a glass bottle is not great for traveling. Helpfully the bottle is transparent so that you are also aware of how much product is left.
It´s got a nice pump, which is easy, so control, so you’re never left with too much product on your hand (I use half or one pump depends how much coverage I want).
All around a great product is for daily use. I totally would recommend this product for someone with normal skin.
