Hey dolls,

I recieved a request from one of my lovely followers to do a review on Maybelline’s FitMe foundation. Now, there are ALOT of mixed reviews out there about the FitMe foundation, and I do want to point out that it is really up to how YOU like the product. This is my personal opinion, based on my experience of using it. So let’s start! :)

PROS:

• The finish is really between dewy/matte, and goes on very smoothly.
• Blends really well. I personally use my stippling brush to apply it.
• The coverage is light-medium.
• This is my everyday go-to foundation for work, home, ”lounge-around” days.
• Doesn’t settle into pores/doesn’t create fine lines like some foundations.
• Doesn’t look cakey as long as you don’t apply a super heavy layer.
• Lightweight.
• Makes pores less noticable.
• Great price - $6.00 at any drug store.
• The shade was perfect for me!

CONS:

• Not very long lasting - I also apply primer and a finishing powder to set it.
• I’ve found that if you use too much - It does tend to get a bit greasy.
• Rubs off easily.
• NO PUMP! :(

Overall: I really like this foundation. As I stated in my “Pro’s”, it is my go-to foundation for an every-day/casual look. I have combination skin (where my T-zone does tend to get a bit oily) and this worked fine. So if you’re combination/normal/dry skin, this foundation will probably work best for your skin type. I do not recommend it to oily/acne-prone skin because it does have a tendency to get a little greasy after a few hours or if you’ve applied too much.

If you’re looking for something to use as an every day foundation with light-medium coverage. This will NOT give you full coverage and I wouldn’t recommend building it up.

Would I buy this again? Yes. :)
