Diorskin Forever Compact Flawless Perfection Fusion Wear Makeup SPF 25 Review

Price: $49
Size: 0.35 oz
Rating: 1/5

This week I tried the Diorskin Forever Compact Flawless Perfection Fusion Wear Makeup SPF 25 in Medium Beige. I liked the fact that this foundation has a built in spf which is perfect for my lazy days (usually always) when I skip applying sunscreen because of the hate of the smell and the oily feeling I get when applied. 

I had such high expectations with this foundation due to the fact that it was Dior but this did not sit right with my skin. It applied very patchy and did not meld into the skin like my MAKE UP FOR EVER Duo Mat Powder Foundation. The makeup accentuated dry patches that I did not realize I even had Also the color match was a little off for my medium yellow skin tone. The colors were more on the neutral to pink undertone range.

Overall, this foundation did not work for me and with the price tag, I was expecting something fantastic which Dior did not deliver this time.

Korres Wild Rose Mineral Setting Powder Review


Price: $18
Size: 0.29 oz
Rating: 4/5

I recently found the Korres Wild Rose Mineral Setting Powder at my local TJ Maxx and decided to try it because I have never tried any Korres products. I originally thought this setting powder was like any translucent powder that would mattify my face but this one was a little different.

This powder is meant to control the shine on your face but also give you a luminous glow. There are finely milled glitter that gives the face a sparkly affect but does not make your face look greasy which tends to be a problem for my combination oily skin. When blended into the skin, you will not be able to notice the individual specks of glitter.

Overall, this product does what it is suppose to but also gives you a nice highlight counteracts the overly white face you may get when applying translucent powder.
