Clinique Beyond Perfecting Foundation Review | Flawlessly Apply An All Day Foundation With Added Concealer

So in my previous post, I talked about Clinique Skincare. In order to receive those samples, I signed up to go to the beauty counter in my (then) local Boots.  Clinique offer multiple free services to help you pick out the best products they have for you. I chose to get foundation matched because I’m so pale everything makes me look orange. Okay not everything, but I struggle with finding foundation.

I tried a couple of foundations, but this one was the only one that really went pale enough for me. It’s the Clinique Beyond Perfecting Foundation and Concealer. It’s got a good coverage because it’s also classed as a concealer. It manages to cover all my imperfections. Such as spots, discolouration, bags under my eyes etc. But it’s not too heavy and doesn’t make my face feel ‘cakey’.

I find it works wonders over dry skin. Because it’s liquid formula, it doesn’t highlight my dry patches. It’s also a moisturising foundation so it helps in the long run. I find it works less well with oily skin. Recently in particular, I’ve been struggling with oilier skin, and my foundation seems to rub away more easily throughout the day. I use the Hello Flawless Powder on top, but it still doesn’t help that much. I would recommend for anyone who has dryer skin.

It comes with this magic wand applicator. You use the wand to put product across your cheeks, chin, forehead and nose and then blend it out with fingers or a brush. I’ve tried using a beauty blender, but I just didn’t like it. It didn’t seem to cover as much as it did with the brush or my fingers. The applicator picks up quite a lot of product. There’s no need to dip it back into the foundation.

Overall, this is one of the better foundations I’ve tried. I’ll definitely be re-purchasing in the future. For me, it will probably be better for my skin during the winter months when my skins dryer. Hopefully, I’ll find a product that’s good for the summer months soon.
