Review | ORIFLAME Very Me Smoothie Foundation & No Time For Shine Powder

I'm not a foundation type of girl. Usually I prefer BB or CC creams. My skin is not that bad, and to be honest I don't need a lot of coverage. But when Ana Dinis told me about this foundation I was super excited to try it! So I got the foundation and the matching powder in Ivory. Turns out, they are too light for my skin... But I can make it work with some bronzer. I have this rule -- when in doubt always go for the lighter one. You can always bronze it up!

I've used them both a few times now, and I have to say I really like them. The foundation claims to have berry and yogurt extract, and this gives it a super sweet smell -- just like bubble gum! It's really nice. The texture is very runny (almost liquid like), which I really like. It almost reminds me of those weightless foundations that are so trendy right now. It is very smooth and glides on super easily. It blends seamlessly onto the skin and you won't find any harsh lines even if applied in a hurry.

As for the finish, it is slightly dewy. But it feels very light and comfortable on the skin, And it's not sticky at all. The coverage, yeah, it's light to medium I'd say. But it really turns down the redness and evens out the completion. What more could you ask for?!

As for the powder -- I love the name! It became my go-to powder. It's matte and it is great to do some touch ups during the day.  I love the pattern on the little sponge it comes with, it's super girly and I just love that pop of color. You know I'm a sucker for cute packaging!  And speaking of packaging -- I've actually read some reviews saying that the lid breaks off easily. Mine is perfectly fine. I've been taking it with me every day to work. And I think I've even dropped it a couple of times and it's as good as new.

Don't forget --  if you want to get any of these products you can contact Ana Dinis and she will hook you up! And if you use my code GIRLYGIRL10 you can get an even awesome deal!
