Product Review: Bourjois Healthy mix serum Gel Foundation

Hi guys!

The weekend is finally here, and I'm finally free to do a review on a new product that I received in the mail. I bought Bourjois' Healthy mix serum in the colour 52 (Vanilla) from Asos for $13 which is dirt cheap from Australia's retail price which is $32 at Priceline.

 Product Review:

Bourjois Healthy Mix Serium (52: Vanille/Vanilla).

First look of it:

Review: Packaging: 4/5

- It's in a glass bottle which makes it have a very professional feel.

- The ingredients are clearly written on the back and the front: 

'Vitamin-rich fruit therapy'

- The red cap is very cute! Inside you can kind of see the pump. 

- I personally like pumps because it is easy to test how much of

the product you need to use. Screw caps are annoying because

you end up pouring out too much!

Review: Coverage - 3/5

- Since I have fairly clear skin, the product blended into my skin

very smoothly. But I only really like using foundation that is 1/3

coverage.

- I know many of you girls would like to have more coverage

especially for the evening when all cameras are on you! 

- HOWEVER, for daytime, this foundation is AH-mazing. It's

fruit extracts definitely brings out a healthier glow that it claims

on the packaging. I have quite pale skin so I can look sickly

mornings but this really does the job!

Review: Long-lasting - 3/5

- Many foundations often claim that they are long-lasting, this one

claims that it can last up to 16 hours.

- However, I think it lasts a maximum of 4-5 hours without any 

finishing powder, but does last a good 10 hours with powder.

- So, all of these claims are actually when you use primer under

the foundation and powder/finishing spray over the foundation.

- Otherwise, for a light coverage foundation that 'blends flawlessly'

into your skin, it does last quite a while!

Review: Colour - 4/5

- In other reviews on youtube, they seem to agree that this foundation

has a yellow undertone/tinge. But especially for us asian girls out there,

this is perfect for our skin!

- For other skin tones, don't let the yellow-ness put you off! The yellow

pigments are actually used to cover more blemishes and redness,

 and evens

out the skin tone.

- You could use a small portion of this foundation as 'primer', to correct

skin tone and then use another foundation that is more suited to 

your colour

- I absolutely loved the colour on my skin, as again my skin is very

 white/pale so it gave me a glow to die for!

Final Verdict: 4/5

- I really loved this foundation, it is very gentle on the skin and does blend

quite flawlessly with the stipple brush.

- The colour is great for my skin but for other skin types be sure to check out

all their colours!

- It has a fruity scent which smells delicious and feels so natural on my face

- Honestly, I don't even feel it when it's on my skin!

Have an awesome weekend guys! More Pics below!
