Hello everyone!
Today, I am continuing my Top Five series with a top five drugstore bases. There is a mixture of both foundations and BB creams as my make-up collection isn't as extensive as some beauty bloggers as I haven't been doing this for long, although I still have a fair amount!
Starting on the left is Rimmel Wake Me Up Foundation. I love this foundation for days when I'm feeling ill and have to make a bit of effort, because it has little particles in it that give an anti-fatigue effect and radiant glow. It's also perfect for summer for the same reasons and it also has and SPF of 15. Next is another foundation from Rimmel, the Match Perfection Foundation. I love how lightweight this foundation is, but it's buildable too so can be anywhere between light coverage and medium coverage, depending on what you like. This is another foundation that gives your skin a radiance, but I would say not as much as the Wake Me Up. This also has SPF, but this time slightly higher at 18. The Body Shop All-in-One BB Cream is definitely my favourite at the moment and the one that I almost always reach for when I am wearing a base. This is a colour-adapting tinted cream, so it comes out almost white like a cream but when you apply it, there are little pods of colour within the cream that burst to give you a colour that also adapts to your skin tone. I think it's genius! When I was on holiday in Mallorca recently, this was all I used as a base as I could continue to use it throughout the holiday as I became more tanned. I bought the Bourjois Happy Light Foundation after hearing so much good stuff about it on youtube and reading amazing things on countless blogs. I am so pleased that I caved into all of these recommendations and bought it. This is yet another foundation that claims to perfect skin and give you a luminous and flawless complexion. I really feel that it does that and again, it has a very light but buildable coverage. Last but not least is the Maybelline Dream Pure 8-in-1 BB Cream. This claims to: conceal imperfections, help protect against the appearance of blemishes, its oil-free so non-greasy, minimises the appearance of pores, clarifies the look of skin, conceals redness, hydrates and smooths and compliments skin tone. Now, I'm no too sure about the complementing the skin tone or the protecting against the appearance of blemishes, but the rest I totally agree with! I went through a phase of probably two months where this was the only base that I wore. As I don't get too many spots (touch wood!) I am more likely to be wearing a light BB cream or tinted moisturiser than a full coverage foundation, so this is one that I reach for a lot and would highly recommend!
