wet n wild Photo Focus Matte Foundation Stick Makeup, Soft Beige | Vegan & Cruelty-Free

Good for your Looks

Buen maquillaje no deja grasoso cubre bien pero no dura mucho en la piel

Hard to smooth out on your face & leaves a tacky/sticky finish. Color is also off-I use medium beige in other brands, which is what I ordered for this brand, and it’s more of a light beige color when you put it on. Just ok in a pinch & also needs covered with a face powder if you don’t want to look “greasy” all day.

The Wet n Wild Photo Focus is a good option for a moisturizing stick foundation (not necessarily my favorite type of foundation), but it's hard to complain when it's retail price is $5. It looks nice once applied, it blends well, doesn't oxidize/change color, but it's not a long lasting foundation and end up emphasizing the fine lines. The foundation applies and blends wonderfully with fingers, sponges and buffing brushes; personally I prefer to use my fingers, as warming the product works better for me. The coverage is light-medium and cannot be build up without looking cakey; I really need a concealer for my under eyes and to spot correct any flaws I want to cover. Freshly applied the foundations looks very good, a natural satin finish, flattering in different lighting (outside, bathroom, office) and slightly blurred/perfected. Although it's an wax and oil-based formula, it didn't caused my clogged pores or breakouts. My biggest issue with the foundation is that while it looks amazing once applied, it's not long lasting. I have combination skin and 3-4 hours after application the foundation starts migrating throughout the day, disappearing from my jaw and mouth, settling into creases (smile and frown lines) and looking messy. I do set it with powder and blot later during the day, but it doesn't help. Maybe it would last longer on someone with dry skin, but I'm not really that oily. The `Soft Beige` shade is a good shade for me, but `Vanilla Beige` was also pretty close (to the point I think it's useless in the line to have both shades). It's maybe more of a summer shade (I don't get too tanned, but I spend time outdoors), but it's not too dark I couldn't wear it at my palest. It doesn't oxidize or change color once applied. The shade is yellow and warm enough for my undertone, without looking unnatural. For reference, I'm light-medium with warm yellow undertone (MAC NC20, Becca Buff/Buttercup, Estee Lauder 1W2/2W1, Maybelline Natural Ivory, Too Faced Vanilla).
