An Avon Foundation Review

{Purchased} {Some Affiliate Links}
As requested, I have purchased four of Avon's popular foundations and got busy trying all of them out. I've given it quite some time before writing this review because I feel that to test out a foundation you have to wear it for a while and see how well the foundation performs. All of these where tested in hot, cool, dry and humid weather. 

My skin type:
Combination to Oily, acne prone, with rosacea. 

Avon Foundations I chose:
 Ideal Flawless Matte Mousse foundation
Extra Lasting Cream-to-powder foundation
MagiX Cashmere Advanced Liquid foundation
Extra Lasting with SPF 12 foundation 


Avon Ideal Flawless Matte Mouse foundation
  • Best for oily skin types
  • Lasts around 5 hours in hot/humid weather
  • Affordable
  • Light to medium coverage
  • Not recommended for dry, normal or combination skin because it will accentuate dry patches
  • Easy to color-match

Avon Extra Lasting Cream-to-powder foundation
  • Feels like silk but dries into a powder
  • Medium coverage
  • Great for combination skin
  • Affordable
  • Lasts 6-7 hours indoors but around 2 hours in warm/hot/humid weather
  • Easy to color-match  

Avon's MagiX Cashmere Liquid Foundation

  • Great for dry to normal skin
  • Dewey finish 
  • Lasts around 6 hours if I set it with a powder (I have combination/oily skin)
  • Does oxidize, I suggest going 2-3 shades lighter than you think
  • Feels nice on the skin, not lightweight but not heavy on the face. 
  • Affordable
  • Hard to color-match

Avon Extra Lasting Liquid Foundation with SPF 12
  • Great for Combination/Oily skin
  • VERY good lasting power at 9 hours before having to touch-up with a setting powder
  • Extremely full coverage
  • Oxidizes so a bit hard to color-match
  • Go 2-3 shades lighter than you think you need
  • Has a thick consistency and feels heavy on the skin
  • Affordable

Left to Right: Ideal Flawless matte Mousse, Extra Lasting Cream-to Powder, MagiX Advanced liquid & Extra Lasting Foundation. 

My favorite foundation for my combination/oily skin was the cream-to-powder foundation. I loved the silkiness, coverage, lasting power and feel of the foundation. These are very reasonably priced foundation- depending on the campaign you can get a great BOGO deal. 

Which foundation would You try? 

Cheers,
Marisa

    2. OMG Thank you so much for this! I recently found out I have to do my own bridesmaid makeup (and I don't use makeup ever). This helps a lot! My mom sells avon and I've been wondering which foundation I should buy =). She doesn't wear makeup either, so I'm literally crying in relief =)
