My Hydrating/Dewy Foundations

My skin goes through different phases all the time.. Sometimes it's normal.. Other times it's dry and dehydrated.. So I always feel that I need to switch up my foundations to accomdate my skin's needs.. Which is how I ended up with too many foundations in my colleciton.. That and my curiousity about some products =P
So here are my hydrating/dewy finish foundations...

Products That Just Didn't Work For Me

We all bought something that might have made us think to ourselves "why in the world did I even buy that?!" This post is about the products that just didn't do it for me.. I don't regret buying them.. And I'm still usin them just so I can use them up but I won't repurchase them for sure..



This product I could not continue using.. I had to throw it away.. It was too harsh with no results.. Never again am I coming near this evil thing.. Here's my mini review on it if you wanna read a lil more..


Lancome Tonique Pure Focus


I bought this to help with matify my T-zone as it contains a powder that helps control your oils.. But all it did was take my makeup off.. This has too much alcohol in it that my skin just did not like.. This product is a gimmick I reckon..

This was a total waste of money! To read my review on it, click here


I had such high hopes for this but it did nothing and I mean nothing to my pores! Yah it felt nice and it smelt good.. But made no changes to my pores or the appearance of them.. It's a totally overhyped product.. Not worth it at all.. I'm so glad I bought the small bottle.. I've had it for a while and I force myself to use it just so I can use it up and throw it away!



You know how there are some brightening serums that may not work completely well but they do lighten your acne scars/dark spots just a little? Well this didn't even do that! Such a waste of money this was.. I was better off not using this product.. Was really really disappointed with it..


Yah it gives a nice glow to the face.. Yah it has a slight tint to it the covers very minor imperfections.. Yah it's lightweight.. But this is sooo not worth it.. There are other products out there that give the same effect, with higher spf and are much cheaper.




I got this before I discovered my Lush Lemony Flutter which I adore.. I found this cream to be too thin for a long lasting hydration foot cream.. Unlike the Lemony Flutter, this did not heal my dry feet quickly.. And the smell ain't pretty..


I know sooo many people swear by this and would probably keep purchasing it for the rest of their lives.. But this isn't the greatest lip balm I've tried.. It moisturizes nicely and feels luxurious and all but my Nuxe Lip Balm moisturizes waaaaaay better.

Ahhh.. Another disappointing product from By Terry.. This foundation was the perfect shade for me.. And although it is light-medium coverage with an almost flat matte finish (which I'm not a huge fan off), I was able to work with it.. But what I couldn't stand was the way it sat and accentuated my pores! It wasn't pretty!




Many people have a love/hate relationship with this product and I am one of them.. I was so excited about this product at first but it disappointed me.. It feels light on but doesn't give me enough coverage AND it looks cakey.. I really wanted to love this.. I'm still trying to make it work for me.. But I am on the lookout for a different mineral foundation...



Hope these mini reviews help you in some way..

Have you tried any of these products? And what products do would you not repurchase?
