We shall start off with Base makeup, here is a round up reviews of the Foundation I loveeeee...

I have a good number of 10-15 different foundations, but these are the few that I would reach for, on different occassions and on different days when I want a matte/satin/glowy finish.

A brightening base by VDL Lumiprimer (perfect for Creating korean makeup looks!) , a concealor that never fails and my HG makeup setting spray by UD. This is an overall suggestion on base products for Combination to Oily skin ladies. All personal opnion!

I gave rating in terms of stars, best being 5 stars and worst having just 1 star.

For Price wise, more stars means more expensive. lol.

Let's get started shall we?

(From the 2nd row, Left to the right) * MUFE Face and Body : most beautiful skin like finish,the closest it gets to "my skin but better" foundie. Its a mixture of water and real foundation, sorry if its confusing you. HAHAHAH.

Shake it up before use! Coverage: ** Consistency : **** Price: *** Availability : ****** Tone match: **** Lasting power : *** (waterproof but low coverage.) *Maybelline Matte fit me foundation: an affordable option that caters for everyday use. Decent coverage and ideal shade match. Last a long long time in our heat and sweaty weather! Recommended!

Coverage: **** Consistency : **** Price: **** Availability : * (Online only) Tone match: **** Lasting power : *****

*Sidetrack* This UD setting spray although cost me $48 per bottle, i swear by this product! All my long days outdoor in the sun, I will use this to set my makeup, and it wont budge for as long as 12-15 hours. No sweat nor anything will affect my makeup, maybe if i rub it with my hands or smth. If not i can feel it literally stick onto my face, and this is my 6th/7th bottle in the picture. Plus I have 1 spare backup, cause I Literally cant live without it.

Okay back to Foundations...

*Kose bb cream: ideal for lazy days, just use fingers to blend and viola! Need Concealor to hide imperfections. But need powder to set for it to last. And shade range only have 2. Not a huge range. suitable for asians i guess.

Coverage: ** Consistency : ** Price: *** Availability : **** (Any Departmental store/counters) Tone match: ** Lasting power : ***

(From the First row, Left to the right) * True Match US formula : W4 matches my skin tone perfectly. And has a decent coverage with thin consistency. Another Cheap and great formula that is suitable for everyday use. Natural looking. Coverage: *** Consistency : *** Price: ** Availability : *(online only) Tone match: ***** Lasting power : **** * Nars Sheer Glow Beautiful skin like finish! And dries to a satin finish.

I would use this for a nights out (3-5 hours lasting power) nut it has a beautiful finish that photographs perfectly! Mad love when taking selfies :)

Coverage: ** Consistency : ** Price: *** Availability : ***** (sephora) Tone match: *** Lasting power : *

* Nars bb cream: a skin like finish and decent coverage. Packaging is ideal for travelling and best used with Fingers. Coverage: ** Consistency : ** Price: **** Availability : ***** (sephora) Tone match: ***** Lasting power : ** ( must set with powder for a lasting finish)

I also wrote about the latest MUFE Ultra HD Foundation here.

~For Ultra Lazy days~

For days where I'm sick and want to look decent, or just lazy to use my hands, i will use the UD Concealer (as foundation but only put at problematic areas) and the Laura Mercier Transparent setting powder to set the entire face. And viola! Long lasting formula and saves lotsa time! One Concealor normally dont do the trick I will layer 2/3 to correct the tone ( dark circles that are bluish/black) and cover up blemishes.
