Hi everyone but especially Shelley,

you said you didn't like the long wear foundation after reformulation. Could you tell me why?

I finally got decided, I got the Skin foundation. It literally looks like I have nothing on and stays perfect for at least 8 hours (and I did go to the gym, for the test :p). I think I may have finally found a favorite.

The long wear, unless I used a specific combination of serum and moisturizer that is really full on moisture made me look dry and my pores looked bigger. It made me look too matte.

The skin foundation was neither matte nor dewy but really natural.

I was torn between shades though, I ended up getting the shade sand, but maybe warm ivory would also have worked. I'm not so good with shades.

What did you think of the skin vs the long wear?

I don't like the new Bobbi Brown Long Wear formula because she added lavender oil making it heavily fragranced and for some reason lavender oil in foundation formulas make me break out.

Oh I see. I didn't notice the fragrance but I heard many people complaining about this in the serum foundation, because lavender is an irritant. Thanks for your answer!

Yes it's such a bummer that she added that in and you're so welcome. ;)
