When
you read the reviews of pale skinned people for Revlon Photo Ready on
Make Up Alley, you hear the same word over and over: Cullen. What is a
Cullen? Cullen is the family name of the vampires in the Twilight
books/movies. The vampires in that series are pale and sparkle in the
sunlight. I planned only to wear this in the winter when I’m mostly
indoors and there is a lot of cloud cover.. My plan did not work out.
Despite not being in direct sunlight, I’m still a Cullen with this
foundation.
Revlon Photo Ready Foundation
My Skin Type: My
skin type is normal to slightly dry in the winter. But, my skin
doesn’t seem to like a lot of lotion-y/moisturizing products. Those
products will make my skin act more like oily skin.
My experience with this type of product. I’ve tried lots of different foundations and different styles of foundations. I’ve only tried drugstore foundations.
What I am looking for in a foundation: Number
one, I’m looking for a foundation that matches my very pale, warm toned
skin (NC 10). There aren’t many drugstore options, and I really want
to stay with inexpensive foundations. I want a medium to full coverage.
I hate light coverage foundations. I put them on and I can’t tell
that I did anything at all. What’s the point? I tend to prefer cream
to powder formulas in winter.
My rating:
What I like about it. This
is the exact right color for me!!! And it looks nice when I first
apply it (although too sparkly). I love that this is in a pump bottle.
It is easier to use and more hygienic that way. I plan to keep the
bottle when I finish the foundation to pour another foundation into. .
What I hate about it. Obviously
I’m not a fan of the sparkling. The sparkles and foundation eventually
settle in my wrinkles and pores. After a few hours, this will often
start to look slimy on my skin. This is probably a better foundation
formula for dryer and darker skin types then mine. (almost everyone is a
darker skin type then me:)) This formula is not terrible, it just isn’t
for me.
Would you buy this again? No. I have winter foundation options that I like better.
Pea Avocado Dip not totally unlike Guacamole

My sister posted these cute cranberry heart shaped cookies today. I
couldn't let her one up me, so I decided to actually get this post done.
What's that yo...
