Organic Splendor
Hello again! I wanted to share this amazing foundation with everyone. This line of cosmetics is called Organic Splendor and is so far the best natural foundation that I have found. The owner of the company, Denise, was so kind every step of the way. She not only chose the right shades for me but she also gave me tips on how best to apply it in order to get the desired coverage I need.
So to start I want to say that I normally use Make Up Forever's Matt Velvet foundation which is full coverage and water resistant. I've been on this 'path' of swapping all my products for more natural and healthy ones but until this point I've never found a natural full coverage foundation. I have really oily skin and even with my favorite cosmetics I still manage to get shiny after a few hours. I must admit that I don't really like mineral/powder foundation because not only do they rarely offer full coverage but with my oily skin they tend to go on splotchy looking and slide right off in a few hours. So I honestly didn't have high expectations but man was I wrong.
Denise assured me that this foundation was buildable to any amount of coverage and it definitely is! As per her guidance, I mixed the powder foundation with my Burts Bees daily moisturizer spf to make it more of a liquid foundation for easier use and application. Given my doubts about it being full coverage or not, I mixed it really thick so it was more like a paste. So much for the easier application lol. But I was instantly amazed at the coverage and how it evens out my skin tone. So because of how thick I mixed the product I ended up with a really thick application. But in spite of that it didn't look very cakey at all and I was truly amazed after a couple hours of wearing it. At about the time that my normal foundation would allow my skin to become an oil slick this foundation seemed to resettle itself on my skin without needing so much as a blot or additional powder. The picture of me was taken after 6 hours of wearing the foundation. Pretty good if I may say so myself. So please watch my video and subscribe to my blog and youtube channel if you like it and want to see more. Feel free to send my any questions, comments or recommendations you may have. Have a Happy & Healthy Day!
