The Foundation Hunt: A dewy finish with Inika Liquid Foundation
/When I received my Inika products I was beyond impressed with how beautiful and luxurious they looked. The Truly Organic Liquid Foundation impressed me that much, I have used it straight away on a beauty editorial for White Magazine here. Amazing finish right? This foundation has been winning beauty awards for years so I was excited to finally give it a go. It is very lightweight and sheer and feels softening to the skin. It is not oily at all, nor does it sit on the skin. It feels more as if it becomes one with the skin and is undetectable. It's truly an HD finish in my opinion. The most impressive fact for me was that it achieves all these results without the use of silicone.
The coverage is light to medium when built up, so it won't cover blemishes etc. but that's what a concealer is for anyways! It can be mixed with the liquid highlighter Light Reflect for a super dewy finish, but I used it on it's own and the highlighter only on cheekbones, bridge of the nose and cupid's bow. It works well with fingers or any foundation brush. The smell is beautiful, sublte maybe a little floral, but there is no synthetic fragrance in this, the scent simply stems from all the high quality natural ingredients. If you are hypersensitve to essential oils I suggest trying out a sample first, just in case. The super chic bottle comes with a hygienic pump. The colour range is unfortunately limited to only 4 colours at the moment, I can only cross all my fingers they will expand the range, as I would happily include this into my pro kit. The existing colours do seem to adjust very well to a variety of skin tones, due to the sheer finish.
This is a great foundation for all skin types, (maybe not for very oily due to the radiant finish) And as I mentioned before: It is sheer, so if you are after a full coverage product this is not for you. I have been wearing this a lot lately and really enjoy it! My skin felt calm and clear after removing it at night, as it is packed with skin care benefits. Inika says on their website this product blurs the lines between moisturiser and foundation- well put! I couldn't agree more.
