[REVIEW] Rimmel Match Perfection Foundation SPF 18

Hello guys! I am back with another blogpost!

I've heard so many glorious things about Rimmel's Match Perfection Foundation SPF 18. Even famous YouTuber, Zoella had mentioned it in one of her old favourites video.

It claims that it has light, perfecting radiance (which I'm happy about). This shade is in the shade 081 Fair Ivory. Yes, I tried it on my face before purchasing it and no, it's not too light on my skin. It matches my skin tone a lot.

I love the packaging of the foundation because it's a foundation pump. It's not the squeeze tube, tub or doe-foot applicator type of foundation application. Downside is that it's hard to get all the product out of the bottle so... It's also a glass bottle, so please be careful. It's very fragile as well.

• Review:

Oh my goodness. It's the best foundation I've ever owned. It's just... so good. Coverage is not too light, it's not too thick/heavy as well. Has a natural finish and it does have light and perfecting radiance (as they mentioned on the bottle). The product also blends absolutely well (with beauty blenders, make-up spongers, brushes and fingers). 

the first layer of foundation. yes i've got tonnes of pimples and red-heads. don't judge.

It's very impressive for a drugstore product. It's also quite long-lasting as well. Why is this a drugstore product? I can't even. Maybe it's because I haven't tried a high-end foundation before (maybe), but I can't imagine a better foundation than this. It also has sun protection so that's a plus/bonus for me, so you don't have to apply sunblock or sunscreen under the make-up.

It's easy to get the product out, coverage is good for everyday wear (not the best for like photo-shoots, filming, etc.) so it's natural-looking, gives off a slightly glow-y and dewy look (very youthful-and-young look) and blends absolutely well.

Sun protection? Yes.
Coverage: 3.5/5
Radiance: 5/5
Blending Application: 4.5/5
Long-Lasting Power: 3/5
Any break-outs? None.
Any weird streaky lines? None.

• How to apply it onto your face/skin?

-Foundation brush, powder brush, make-up spongers, beauty blenders, fingers (if you've got none of the foundation applicators). Make sure you blend all of your foundation until it matches you skin colour and also, blend until the neck area so the shade of your face and your neck are balanced. 

For a natural look, use one layer of liquid foundation and mineral powder afterwards.

For absolutely flawless skin, use two layers of liquid foundation, concealer and then mineral powder.

• Where can you purchase this product?

-Priceline Pharmacy, Chemist Warehouse, any supermarkets in Australia, in the U.K and U.S.

• How much was it?

-$18.00AU.

Overall Comment:

If you're looking for a foundation that has all the above and you're on a budget, please check this product out. It's a good dupe to a lot of high-end foundations out there. I can't find any con for this product. It's just perfect and affordable (which makes it even more perfect). Remember guys, you don't have to buy all those expensive high-end foundation products like Make-up Forever's HD Foundation (or the ultra HD version), Giorgio Armani's Foundation or even Chanel's Foundation. Just find a product that suits you the best. Again, this product has sun protection.
