No7 Protect & Perfect ADVANCED All in One Foundation
Good Natural Coverage
This foundation has a lot of claims around skin benefits ("All in One",
it's in the name!) such as having SPF 50! I gave this a wear test of a few hours,
definitely not as much as I would have liked but I did like this product a lot and this is why:
1) Natural Light-Medium coverage. I only used a little bit (maybe 10p sized amount for my whole face including building up on cheeks) and it gave me a nice amount of coverage. I did my face in a different makeup shop and the makeup-artist was under the impression I had only used priming products on my face - no foundation! IE - I was looking naturally flawless and undetectable *thumbs up*
2) Natural "glass skin" glow. A lot of people complained about this BUT when you are working with a foundation that has a lot of skincare in it I feel like this is expected. If you're big on skincare, you may notice after a serum/emulsion/cream/oil your skin looks "plumped" and hydrated and "shiny" - This foundation gives you that HEALTHY glow. You can powder down afterwards if necessary tbh. I've never seen a matte foundation with skincare in it (something MORE than just Hyaluronic Acid)... Just saying...
3) I compare this to the Maybelline Urban Defence SPF 50 foundation. Both give a similar "dewy" healthy glow. The difference, Maybelline will give you more coverage and has less skincare benefits. Whereas, this has more skincare benefits and less coverage. You really have to pick what's most important between the two because both have antioxidants (I think) and both have SPF 50.
