Hello beautiful people and welcome back to my blog! Today i'm back with a beauty post, it really be hard out here in these streets for a dark skin sister like myself. Finding the right foundation for a good price can be a struggle, because where i live most drugstores aren't acquainted with the fenty forty shades life. So most of the time i have to get high end when my pocket is low end. However, God heard my prayer and a couple of brands came through with some dark skinned shades!
L'Oreal True Match - Shade 10W - Deep Golden (swatch closer to my wrist)
this is almost a perfect match to my skin, the consistency and coverage is overall great! I only wear make up on occasions so in terms of longevity, I couldn't accurately say how long it lasts.
Overall rating: 8/10
Revlon Colorstay - Shade 410 - Cappuccino
Back in the day this was my first ever liquid foundation and it was absolutely amazing! when i tried it now after maybe 5 years , it was still good but it didn't match my skin like before, i used the same colour as before (Mahogany) but i found that it was slightly ashy. So i decided to go a shade down to Cappuccino and weirdly that suited my skin a lot better, but it still was not that brand i remembered back in the day. it was good but it does not suit my skin as well as L'Oreal.
Overall rating: 6/10
Hope you guys enjoyed, until you next time!
Hey girl, I don't understand why so many makeup brands don't offer a wider range for women of color. I heard that Maybelline is doing a really good job at widening their colors, but I haven't had a chance to check out the new colors. Have a lovely day!
