Great Foundation for a great price!
the first time i got this foundation was last year in august and honestly i've never had a foundation that good for this price!!! i've only ever tried foundation from the drugstore and the only foundation that comes close to the ordinary one is maybelline fit me matte and poreless (btw mix these two foundations together and you'll get the most flawless finish ever it's amazing) I think what impressed me the most was the colour although the shade I got before (1.2Y) was a little too light for me but i've ordered the 2.0YG and hopefully that one matches perfectly but like I said the amount of yellow in it was exactly what I've been looking for for sooo long it's such a struggle to find affordable foundation that match my strong yellow undertone but aren't too dark, i am so so glad I tried it I don't think I will switch anytime soon !
Boy this is YELLOW!
I'm East Asian and I have a strong yellow undertone to my skin but even so, this is way too yellow for me. It also cakes up quite easily around my nose. But if I be careful and make sure I don't apply too much (like less than 1 full pump, if not half a pump), this looks quite decent and definitely great value for its price. I also love how small this bottle is - save me a lot of space and I don't ever feel nervous about dropping it.
My face looked like the Sahara desert
I give this two star instead of one for it's cheap price, great colour match for me, but omg my face had never looked this bad wearing this foundation! It's cracked all over my chin, on the sides of my face, and I have combo to dry skin...
Love this company
I have combo, acne prone, and slightly aging skin that I've been battling with and the products from The Ordinary have drastically improved my skin. They make it so easy to come up with a new skin routine and it is cheaper than anything else I've found and effective! This foundation matches my fair/ somewhat olive tinted skin perfectly, blends flawlessly, and wears through the day great.
This foundation is light weight and has great coverage! It's so inexpensive compared to other foundations that I've tried and works just as well if not better. A little goes a long way and it lasts all day. I have absolutely no complaints and I will definitely be repurchasing!
