Huda Beauty Faux Filter Foundation - Review

Huda Beauty Faux Filter Foundation Packaging

Foundation Wear Test 

I had been wanting to try the Huda Beauty Faux Filter foundation since its release but I thought I would wait until the hype died down before deciding whether to purchase.  I purchase the foundation off of Cult Beauty where it is £32.  The colour I matched myself to is Chai, which is a really good match for my fake tan.

 Packaging

The packaging is really nice and looks professional.  It is bulkier than Mac and Estee Lauder foundation but that does not bother me too much.  The packaging looks glass but is actually a thicker plastic but that is also fine with me as I usually drop things.  And the best thing is that it has a PUMP!!

Application 

I used a Beauty Blender to apply this foundation and it gave it a flawless finish.  I feel like using a brush may make this foundation more cakey than it needs to be.  Two pumps is enough to do my whole face (a little goes a long way). I also did not need to powder my face with this foundation as it has a matte finish.  By no means is it a powdery finish.

Wear Throughout the Day

The foundation wore beautifully through the day.  It kept all my oils at bay, which is unusual for any foundation on my skin.  It never went patchy even when I was stuff my face at the cinema seeing The Greatest Showman.

Other 

First of all I like the smell of the foundation BUT I am not sure whether it was the fragrance that made me get the biggest spot ever after wearing it for one day.  I am not known for having spots and I have not had one like that in years.

My Top Products of 2017

2017 was a great year for me, but not for my bank account. Whoops! Here are my top beauty products of 2017 in no particular order: Cover FX - Custom Enhancer Drops - Candlelight Even though these may seem pretty pricey to some, they last a very long time.  Currently I mix these with my foundation or apply before my foundation to give me a nice glow. Mac - Highlight - Double Gleam This highlighter goes with every look and looks awesome on the brow bone. Physicians Formula - Butter Bronzer - Light This is easily the best bronzer that I have ever tried. I'm very pale at the moment so the light shade is pretty accurate for my skin tone at the moment but I will definitely be buying the darker shade for the summer.  It says it in the name it goes on just like butter, no blotchiness which I sometimes get with bronzers. Kevyn Aucoin - Sculpting Powder - Light I accidentally received this in a BeautyBay order I made. And it was the best accident ever !! I do not thi...

January - Beauty Haul

My plan for January was to save money after spending so much at Christmas time.  As you can see from the title this did not happen.  Although I did not spend as much as I normally would. Violet Voss - Hashtag palette  Now, how beautiful is this?  When I first opened up the box I was unsure whether I would actually use it or not.  I am happy to tell you guys that I LOVE IT !! It is so pigmented and the colours are absolutely GORGEOUS !! This is my first Violet Voss palette so I wasn't sure what her palettes were usually like. Would I buy another Violet Voss palette? 100% yes! Sugarpill - Single Eyeshadow - Buttercupcake At the end of the month, after searching for weeks (maybe even months) I finally found the yellow eyeshadow I have been looking for.  I had never bought a Sugarpill single eyeshadow before, but the pigment is amazing and the colour is just what I was looking for.  This eyeshadow is larger than my most of my other sin...
