Laura Mercier Silk creme foundation: This foundation can best be described as giving a 'flawless natural coverage', it is easily build-able to a medium or high finish without looking fake or over the top in the slightest. Its rich, moisturising consistency means as soon as you put it on it feels hydrating and luxurious, blending out effortlessly, adding a hint of glow to the skin; this is one of my absolute favorites for texture as its creamy mousse like nature allows putting on foundation to no longer be such a tedious (sometimes frustrating) task. This retails at £34 so obviously not one of the cheapest high-end foundations, but it remains a favorite in my collection with a re-purchase definitely on the cards. Laura Mercier does do an excellent collection of foundation shades especially for paler girls! I like to blend this foundation with a flat top brush with a spritz of Fix+ directly onto the brush which adds a more liquid feel, making it perfect to blend whilst also giving that well needed hydration back into the skin. One of my favourite foundations; definitely recommend to all.
Kevyn Aucoin 'The Sensual Skin enhancer':The third foundation has by far the highest coverage I have ever got my hands on, with the ability to hide a multitude of sins! Whenever I wake up to one of those dreaded huge spots (as many of us will have experienced) this is my go-to problem solver as it can hide any blemish, acne or scaring on the face almost instantaneously. It has the thickest consistency out of all of my foundations which does make it that bit trickier to blend. A clean, moisturised and primed face is a must for this foundation as its texture will cling to any dry areas which is why I rarely use this alone; due to its thickness I usually wear this as a concealer. It can, like nearly all foundations, appear cakey and over done if you do wear it alone due to it being such high coverage; its matte formula gives a airbrushed, flawless base perfect for all the girls who love a good ultra-high coverage. I would never use this foundation without a moisturising primer and lashings of Fix+ directly sprayed onto the skin before and after application and also straight onto the brush for easier blending.
At £38 there is nothing like this on the market and I would challenge anyone to find a better coverage that than products from Kevin Aucoin.
