Having used a high street brand of foundation for many years, I decided that it was time for a change. Although I was never really satisfied with my foundation as my skin always looked patchy with an uneven coverage, I was a bit concerned about changing as it is quite difficult to find a good colour match. Having the disposable funds to purchase different foundation colours to try out was certainly not a good option for me.
A couple of months ago, I was offered a free colour match using Afterglow Mineral Cosmetics. Apparently, the colour I was using was not a good match for my skin tone. As I am fairly light skin, I preferred my foundation to be darker. I was advised that this could be achieved by applying a foundation colour that suited my skin better and to use a bronzer for a more deeper colour all over.
Since I began using the Afterglow Beige foundation which was perfectly matched to my skin colour and tone, not only have I achieved the look I wanted, I also have a glowing complexion. The coverage was great and long-lasting from morning till evening and a total breeze to remove at the end of a long day. I was so impressed with th
e foundation I have now purchased the blusher as well and will continue to use Afterglow Cosmetics and recommend it to anyone looking to improve their makeup and skin. Finally, I feel my skin can breathe.
The foundation cost slightly more than I would have preferred to pay, but it lasted around three months with both me and my mother using it everyday.
