Here I am trying to review some products that I've recently picked up either for myself or my makeup kit.
I like to carry a variety of asian cosmetics since I tend to specialize in makeup for asian women. Sometimes it's hard to find reviews for smaller brands or brands that haven't quite made the full transition to the western market so hopefully this can help someone!
MAKEheal isn't a brand I've heard of before but the foundation looks interesting so I picked it up!
Like most complexion makeup in the asian market, it has a very limited color range with 4 shades
I don't consider myself to be the tannest of individuals and I picked up their darkest shade so you can imagine that their shades run very fair.
This description is taken directly from YesStyle :
The applicator/tip isn't something I would necessarily call "hygienic" since it's implied that you'd be using it directly on the face but I will admit that I was drawn to it because you don't normally see a foundation with an applicator.
(I hands down prefer pumps in general but I also don't normally carry around the whole foundation bottle in my kit. All foundations are usually transferred into smaller containers so they're lighter to carry. Either way, apply on a palette so there's no issue!)
I was having a rough time trying to focus on this little brush, hahaha.
I took a dark brown eyeliner to swatch~
The coverage is a really nice buildable medium and is easy to blend out.
Instead of a glowy finish which is what the foundation is advertised as, I think the finish is very much an asian matte. Not drying on the skin but it doesn't have any shine to it. I do tend to prefer more satin finishes for my drier skin but asian mattes are easy enough to work with since they're to as drying as western matte foundations.
TLDR: Nice medium-buildable coverage foundation with a soft matte finish. Easy "on the go" applicator and good staying power. If you have drier skin, definitely prep with a good moisturizer or primer. Shade is a touch on the warm side of neutral.
