Maybelline New York Fit Me! Pressed Powder

Just ok.

I bought the Fit! Me pressed powder along with the foundation and concealer because I saw a couple of good reviews for them. I have to say that the whole line is pretty bad in my book but the powder might be the best out of the three. I got matching shades for all three and even though the foundation looks pretty good on my skin, I feel like the powder doesn’t really match, it’s way too light. I don’t need to use powder very often, but whenever I did use it, it didn’t really do much, didn’t cover a whole lot, didn’t control any shine. It was just kind of there, along for the ride. It lasted for a little while and looked fine, but then faded after an hour or two. I can’t recommend anything from the Fit! Me line, it’s all sort of cheap and definitely doesn’t last all day.

Maybelline New York Fit Me! Foundation

Never buying this again

When I bought it and put it on for the first time I was pretty happy with it, it didn't cake on, the coverage was fine for me, the consistency was very easy to work with and it felt pretty good on my face. But that was only for maybe the first hour or two. After that it just starts to come right off; it doesn't last at all for me. After a little while, it gets shiny and makes me skin feel so oily (even though I wouldn't say that I have oily skin, it's actually usually more dry than oily). Also, if I, for some reason, wipe my face on a tissue or something, the foundation rubs right off. I'm not satisfied at all! I feel like there are so many better foundations out there. I can safely say that I will never be buying Maybelline's Fit! Me ever again :(

Rimmel London Clean Finish Foundation

Surprised!

Judging by the price, I didn't really have high expectations for this foundation. But I bought it anyway to give it a try and I was pleasantly surprised to find that I really like it! I actually like that it's not the typical consistency of a liquid foundation, it's more like a paste (which does make it hard to put on at first but you just have to get used to it). It doesn't make my face oily like my previous foundation did and it covers pretty well. I don't think it makes my skin look orange or cakey. Overall, very happy with this purchase!
