The UK finally got Maybelline Fit Me foundation! I've seen this foundation
on a few American blogs and recently seen a couple pop up over here, it's also
been featured in a few magazines lately. So when I was in Superdrug yesterday I
decided to pick one up and give it a try.
I was immediately drawn to this foundation because of the beautiful
packaging, its so sleek and simple which I love. Now all I had to do was pick
my shade...beside the foundations there were charts to help you find your
perfect colour - light skin, medium skin and dark skin with either a yellow or
a pink undertone. I usually use MAC NC30, so I went for medium skin with a
yellow undertone and got #220 - Natural Beige. I'd say its a slightly different
tone from my MAC foundation but it still matched my skin fine. For a drugstore
foundation I'd say the choice of shades is excellent.
Fit Me is Maybelline's first gel foundation, it contains no oils or waxes
and according to them it has natural coverage and allows the skin to breath and
look natural. Also, because of the lightweight pigments it allows the skins natural
highs and lows to show through. It has an SPF 18 in it which is an added bonus.
The texture of the foundation is gorgeous, it glides onto the skin so
smoothly and gives the skin a dewy look. It also smells really nice! The
coverage is quite light and personally I prefer a foundation with more
coverage. I've got this foundation on in my previous post if you'd like to see it
on. Fit Me foundation costs £7.99 and can be purchased in Boots stores (It's
not online yet). Overall, I think it's a great foundation if you like a light
coverage. Unfortunately, its just not for me.
Have you tired Fit Me yet?

I'd not heard of this foundation before i read this review - sounds really good though - i like the fact it has no oil in it. Will definitely be trying this :) xx
ReplyDeleteHey pal, me and Holly have officially started our blog! i done a post on Mac lipsticks so subscribe to us :) I mixed this foundation with some nars laguna illuminator to darken it a bit, wearing it today and it looks really nice! Not best coverage ever though xoxo
ReplyDeleteI had a dream about this foundation last night...must be a sign! I've requested a sample of this to see how it fares on my skin, I only just purchased Naked Skin by Urban Decay and I'm head over heels for it. I need to start getting some high street foundations into my makeup bag though, the amount I spend on high end foundations in one year is worrying x
