Review: Aubrey Nicole Foundation
Name: Light-Medium Full Coverage Foundation
Product: 5/5
Price: 26.95 for a 3 OZ Jar
Available: Aubrey Nicole
I love this foundation. If I didn’t love it, I wouldn’t have bought the full sized jar, and since I bought the super sized jar, that should tell you SOMETHING! I am very much a commitment phobic person when it comes to foundation, which is one of the reasons I’ve fallen in love with mmu, it gives me the chance to try tons of foundations without making a serious commitment to just one.
However, after falling in love with the Aubrey Nicole sample I ordered a while ago, I knew I MUST order a full sized jar. Fortunately for me, Aubrey Nicole decided to have a huge sale throughout the month of July, giving 20% off everything in the store so I managed to pick up my foundie for about $21, which is not bad at all, considering how many years this thing will last me, NO JOKE!
Ok, on to the review; Aubrey Nicole offers two types of foundations, soft coverage and full coverage. The soft coverage seemed too light for me, so I went with the full coverage instead. I feel that with the full coverage, I have better control over how much coverage I actually get. The foundation applies very nicely for me, and the foundation color is a perfect match for my skin color. The powder seems to melt into my skin, so you can’t tell that I am wearing foundation.
The coverage I tend to aim for is light/ medium which means I only do a layer or two of the full coverage for it to look good. With my Monistat primer, this foundation practically lasts all day for me, which a great thing, considering I live in Florida and it’s SUMMER! The humidity here has been a b**ch. LOL. So I am thrilled about how long this foundie lasts in this blasted heat.
Final Thoughts: I don’t have many requirements for foundation, as long as it doesn’t break me out, matches my skin and stays put for most of the day, I’m a happy girl. For me, this foundation does everything I need it to and I’m satisfied with what I have now.
Will I ever try more foundies? Most likely.
Will I ever buy another full jar of a different foundie? Probably.
But for now, I’m completely happy with my Aubrey Nicole Foundation.
