Review: Benefit Some Kind-A Gorgeous Foundation







          A few months ago I purchased "Benefit's Tan About Town"  which included a small sample size pot of Benefit's Some Kind-A Gorgeous Foundation. Being a foundation junkie I was very excited to try this out and see if it would work for me.



About the Product:

          A sheer, oil-free, cream-to-powder complexion perfecter. This lightweight, translucent, foundation-like product smooths out imperfections and evens skin tone with a silky, smooth finish that's super natural and super gorgeous.


Pros and Cons:

        Like all products do- this one also has it's pros and cons. 

Pros: 
  • Cute Packaging. 
  • Moderate Coverage
  • Buildable 


Cons: 
  • Too sheer.
  • Limited shade options.
  • Greasy


My Opinion: 

          Now I will be honest, I was dissapointed with this product. Despite being "oil-free" I found this product to be a bit greasy. It does not clog up my my pores  which is good, but I still didn't appreciate the greasy-ness to it. This product is suppose to be a cream to powder foundation but I do not see it, to me it is a creme foundation all the way. Also I thought this was way to sheer for me to be used as a foundation alone. However it is very buildable and even though it does not work me as a foundation I have actually been using this as a concealer under my eyes. It may sound weird because that is not it's original purpose but it works for me that way. I do not think I will be purchasing this in it's full size but I will be taking advantage of the pot that I currently own.
