RMK CREAMY FOUNDATION - POTENTIAL HOLY GRAIL?



When it comes to foundations, I'm constantly on the hunt for the perfect one. I'll fall in love with one and then around 2 weeks down the line it'll just start to look horrid on me or not give me what I need. I've been using the Creamy Foundation from RMK* for probably around a month now and I really, really love it.

Let's first mention the colour match, that swatch looks crazy dark and if I was offered that shade it would more than likely be a no-go. But what this little pot of lovin' does is blend so seemlessly and flawlessly into the skin that you barely notice that it's not an exact match. It offers a glow that I've never seen from a foundation with such a high coverage. Many tend to be quite powdery, sit on the skin and often go quite patchy and obvious through the day but I find this really melts into my skin giving me a healthy, second skin like finish. Another plus is how pigmented this is, you only need the smallest amount too cover your noggin'.

In terms of longevity, you can't beat it - 7 hours later and my skin is still sporting a healthy glow with a fresh complexion. With my skin being more miss than hit lately, I've found myself applying it straight from the pot however it mixes really nicely with a moisturiser for a lighter coverage.

As I was going for a fuss free look, I paired this with a neutral eye and good lashing of mascara. I kept the cheeks low-key to let the glow be the focus and brushed a bit of the Bourjois Chocolate Bronzer onto my cheeks, pushing a little more into my contours and finishing up with a slick of the Revlon Lip Butter in Candy Apple.

We'll have to see how I carry on with this, but so far it's looking good - touch wood! Are you interested in trying it out? What's your current go-to foundation?

  3. Hayley, this foundation sounds amazeballs. To me, your description reads like it could be for the Kevyn Aucoin Sensual Skin Enhancer, I wonder how they compare!

  5. Your skin looks amazing, you're actually glowing! I'm currently using the Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum and I'm loving it, although it is a bit too dewy for my liking :')
