As you know, I am addicted to trying foundations. I am asked a lot about cheaper brands and affordable products so I am on a mission to find us the best one. I picked up Bourjois and 17 Even Better foundation in Boots a few weeks and decided to road test them for you and do a little comparison. Turns out one of them is great. Here’s the video:

[..YouTube..] not a pretty sight you say. first thing in the morning I’m gonna marry you would that be OK with you?
[..YouTube..] @clmcguin1986 i know its not drugstore – but you only mentioned Mac and Nars as high end brands so I thought I’d throw it out there
[..YouTube..] you should try armani foundation. Its only €30 or so in BTs and comes with a pump. Much better and cheaper than Mac. x
[..YouTube..] I just recently bought wet n wild foundation for about £2 from Tesco and it’s surprisingly good for the price xx
[..YouTube..] Cathy0kitty, thanks thats really great to know : )
[..YouTube..] Oh, I have to agree that Revlon’s Colorstay is a fabulous find! The quality, the coverage and staying power…I could go on and on! Always have two shades of this in my stash as back ups. I love Chanel Lumiere but cannot justify the insane price! Revlon’s Colorstay actually looks better than Chanel, NARS, Estee Lauder Doublewear. Sometimes, you really find a winner!
[..YouTube..] My fav drugstore foundation without a doubt after yrs of using MAC would be Revlon Colorstay..but will be trying the New 24 Stay Foundation when I get some tomorrow!
[..YouTube..] My favourite drugstore foundation for the moment is Rimmel London stay matte. Its £5 to £6 pound from boots and it is so effective and covers up any redess which I suffer from xx
[..YouTube..] @Starlightsixty
I have found that the euro price is usually 5-6 euro more than the dollar price.Studio fix fluid in America is 26 dollars ut i bought it in Dublin for 31 euro.

[..YouTube..] My fav drugstore foundation is maybelline mineral power. It gives amazing coverage especially when applied with the cosmopolitan kabuki brush (I got mine in Tesco) which is small and dense. I think it may have broken me out before but I’m not sure cos its quite hard to eliminate diff factors.
[..YouTube..] How much in euro would a mac foundation cost? I really want to know cos I remember you saying one time that the with the price of revlon colourstay you could buy a mac one for a couple more euro. On the mac site it only gives the price in dollars so I’m really curious to know.
[..YouTube..] you should try revlon custom creations i LOVE it =)
[..YouTube..] Thank you for the detailed and honest review. I know now to stay well away from that product! :)
[..YouTube..] i was actually very pleased with the Bourjois foundation however i do agree that the brush in it is useless
[..YouTube..] I had the exact same problem with another Bourjois product. It stayed on all my face except my chin (problem area) AND it had the worst smell ever!! It was the sleep effect foundation. It’s only ok.. but wouldn’t buy again
[..YouTube..] Do you think maybe you might have gotten a fake foundation because you ordered it from ebay?
I can’t see how anybody could have liked the first one.

I never liked revlon colorstay :S maybe it was the wrong colour? I had It in the normal/dry skin . My HG foundation is Mac Studio Fix Fluid. Dream Matte Mousse Is an emergency one :P

[..YouTube..] i always repurchase rimmel lasting finish. it’s good coverage and inexpensive :)
[..YouTube..] Also you should try the 17 shine free pressed powered its amazing !! and lasts me all day
[..YouTube..] I was on the boots website and there isnt that 17 foundation but there is one called -17 Skin Perfecting Shine Free Foundation in a glass tub the describtion says the same as the one you have i think Could you check it out any maybe tell me if im right ?!
[..YouTube..] Gosh X-ceptional Wear Long Lasting Make-up…..amazing!
[..YouTube..] Ooo please do a Review on it let me know what you think. Would love too see that! Thanks Sweetness! xox Luffles xox
[..YouTube..] the avon extra lasting perfectwear foundation is good :)
[..YouTube..] For drugstore foundation I usually stick with Colorstay for combination skin. Loreal True Match liquid, and there is a new roller version of that coming out. Maybelline Pure makeup on light days when my skin is good.
[..YouTube..] @VenusBaaby101 Oh Noooooo! I will go in and have a look. They probably just renamed and perked up the packaging x
[..YouTube..] I went into boots today and they don’t have the 17 one anymore they’ve revamped their line and maybe its called something else now? There is no 40ml foundation anymore and I couldn’t work out which one it was! :(
