Very nice foundation. Color matches my Fair skin with yellow undertones very nicely. My only concern is that for the price, the foundation will be used up in no time flat. You can't see how much product is left and it's a liquid in a compact. There is a button that you push and foundation comes out a hole in the compact. In my experience, this type of packaging usually contains less foundation than the bottle types. Time will tell I guess!
A Foundation Dream Come True
What a relief!! After all the searching, all the money spent, all the trials and fails, I have finally found a foundation I look forward to wearing! I’m in my 40’s, have visible signs of aging, and normal-to-dry skin. I was to the point where I began to loathe putting on makeup... having to check to see if my foundation creased in my lines, feeling my face dry out as the day progressed, and knowing if I had a hot flash it was all going to heck in a handbasket. Enter: Sisley-Paris Phyto-Blanc cushion...it has been a game-changer for me on so many levels! Yes it’s spendy, but worth every penny. The finish is beautifully luminous without looking greasy, and it feels wonderful on the skin, almost like I’m applying a light moisturizer. So far, I like it best on its own with no primer, and even still it doesn’t crease in my lines, not even my forehead furrows. It stays put all day, doesn’t transfer or migrate and doesn’t vanish after I sweat, yet the finish stays beautiful and even-toned. I have mature skin, so setting powders are not my friend, but I don’t even need one for longevity with this foundation. It truly does brighten my complexion and lend a healthy glow to my dull, winter skin. Coverage is light but easily builds to the lighter side of medium, and I’ve found ymy fingers to be the best method of application. I’ve discovered I have to let the foundation rest on my skin for just a few minutes after applying, but during that few minutes, it melds with my skin and the magic happens! My face looks radiant, polished, and healthy. Phyto-Blanc also sits beautifully under my eyes, which is usually a big problem area for me. I could sit here all day and laud the merits of this beautiful formula, but you get the idea. This is one absolutely gorgeous formula. My only complaint is the shade range (or lack thereof). I’m NW 20 and I wear the darkest shade. Yes, you read that correctly, my match is the darkest shade, #3 light rose. I must say, I t’s very disheartening to see so few shades in a brand new foundation. I can only hope Sisley adds more in the future. Also, this compact does not come with a refill, which is a bummer but not a dealbreaker for me. The formula is such a perfect fit for my skin, I am completely over the moon! It is a great feeling to enjoy putting on makeup again!
