Here's a quick review of my current face base combo. I know showing how these work through a video is a lot better but I feel like doing it only for two products isn't too worthwhile. Perhaps, I could just add these once I film the next one, which would feature my recently purchased products.
I'm currently using two of Wet N Wild's PhotoFocus products. For the foundation (599 php), I picked Soft Beige, which is I think 2nd to the lightest shade available locally. For the powder, I have the Banana shade (499 php). I wasn't able to include the PhotoFocus concealer because I already bought one from BLK Cosmetics, but I heard that's good too.
I love the size of the glass bottle and the fact that it comes with a spatula. It's easier to control the amount and less messy to take product out compared to others that you have to pour.
One dip is enough to get a medium coverage. The consistency is watery but a good amount will not be too sheer as you blend it. It also has a pleasant scent.
It has a pink undertone which is a new to me because I usually go for yellow. However, it turned out okay because it doesn't create a shade that's too far from my skin color. It just evens out everything except for the dark circles, which a concealer can solve.
It blends really well and it gives a nice semi-matte finish. Although, I noticed it's not 100% smooth on the sides of my face because of dryness.
Next is the Banana Powder. It isn't a translucent one but it is still used for setting or baking.
Personally, I like using it as a regular powder to set concealer or foundation. It has a nice texture and I think pairing this with Soft Beige PhotoFocus foundation is a good idea because it somehow balances the pink undertone.
Oh, and it doesn't smell like bananas. 😉
It comes with a nice big puff, which I never use. I like using a brush.
I like how it gives a soft, smooth skin filter just like on IG stories. 😙
What do you think?
