I&#8217;ll do the same in this post.<\/p>\n<h2>Skin Type<\/h2>\n<p>My skin has changed a lot in the past couple of years. In puberty I used to have a lot of pimples. My skin was horrible and oily. That changed with time and my skin got better. I still get pimples and spots, but it&#8217;s manageable. Now my skin is combination to dry. My forehead gets oily on some days.<\/p>\n<p>The surface of my skin is uneven from all the pimples. I have some scars and my pores are large.<\/p>\n<p>In general my skin is normal and not sensitive. Some products clog my pores, but I haven&#8217;t discovered (yet) which ingredients are responsible for that.<\/p>\n<h2>Skin Tone<\/h2>\n<p>When it comes to undertone, I have strong yellow undertone, but my face is a bit tricky as it has some redness. My face is more red than the rest of my body. And because of the redness my face looks peachy. If I flush, I don&#8217;t get nice red cheeks. No no no &#8230; I get red all over my face. :S<\/p>\n<p>Another thing I&#8217;d like to mention is that I have uneven skin tone on my face because of spots and pimples.<\/p>\n<p>For reference.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>In the winter <strong>MAC&#8217;s Studio Fix Fluid in NC20<\/strong> is too dark for me in the winter, but it&#8217;s nice when I get a bit of color.<\/li>\n<li>MAC&#8217;s Face and Body in C2 is a bit too dark whem I&#8217;m very pale. When i get a bit tanned it&#8217;s a perfect match.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Bourjois &#8211; Healthy Mix Serum in shade 52<\/strong> is OK in the winter, but it&#8217;s not perfect, because it&#8217;s not yellow enough.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Bourjois &#8211; Flower Perfection in shade 52<\/strong> is not yellow enough for me. I look death with this shade on and I definitely need blush to get it work for me.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Catrice &#8211; Photo Finish in shade 010 Sand Beige<\/strong> is the closest match to my skin tone in the winter. It&#8217;s still a bit too ashy for me, but is very close.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Foundation<\/h2>\n<p>What do I look in a foundation?<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>healthy and glowy skin<\/strong> (not oily): I prefer foundation that do not dry my skin and give a subtle glow.<\/li>\n<li><strong>good (not full) coverage<\/strong>: Because of my uneven skin tone on my face, I need good coverage foundation. I usually use medium coverage foundations that can be build up.<\/li>\n<li><strong>good staying power<\/strong>: Because my skin is not oily, I usually don&#8217;t have problems with foundations and their staying power, but some do disappear on me quickly.<\/li>\n<li><strong>invisible on the skin<\/strong>: I haven&#8217;t discovered a foundation that would be invisible on the skin and at the same time it would have good coverage, but some look better than the others.<\/li>\n<li>easy to apply: I apply foundations with brushes, but still &#8230; some need more attention to get them to look nicely on the skin that the others.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Application<\/h2>\n<p>I always apply foundation with a buffing or a stippling brush. For the purpose of the reviews I&#8217;ll try different application techniques. I&#8217;ll apply foundation with buffing brush, stippling brush, foundation brush, sponge and fingers.<br \/>\nI wrote a long post \/ review on foundation brushes and my favourite ones. If you are interested, you can find the post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.parokeets.com\/en\/2012\/04\/foundation-brushes-and-maestras-favorites\/\" target=\"_blank\">HERE<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>I think now evrything is ready for the acctual foundation reviews.
