Save your dollars: Max Factor Xperience Foundation + GIVEAWAYYYY

Hey girlies,

As you can see ive changed the layout and background of my blog and im not too sure how i feel about it, but i know i like it better than what i had before. Now that i think of it, i never really liked what i had before which is probably why i decided to change it lol leave me a comment below and let me know what you think.. yay or nay to new background ???

So todays post is called, 'save your dollars' and its what im going to start naming my posts when ive tried out a product and i think its poopie and not worth your money, so dont make the same mistake i did, and therefore save your dollars :)

Max Factor Xperience Weightless Foundation is probably weightless because it seriously has no coverage what so ever ! For a 30 something dollar foundation, youd hope it have a little more than a light to light medium (at its absolute max !!) coverage. I was seriously disappointed with this cause i liked the idea of weightless, but hate the idea of no coverage. Its definately a foundation that id just rub on my face before work on a Sunday morning to try and hit the 'i look half decent for sunday morning' status. Besides Sunday morning and possibly the super duper ultra natural look, i wouldnt really recommend this. When i first purchased it, i thought it would be awesome and when i was swatching them in the shop, i was like woooahhh its so smooth and its gonna be my fave, but when i got home i was like errr you can be thrown in the back of my drawer now !
I must give it some recognition in the fact that its really smooth and creamy and easily blended, but it cant be layered which just turns me off it that little bit more. I do like the fact that it has SPF10, so its not too bad for photos cause it has a small amount of SPF, and it still allows a little bit of protection from the sun, but id rather more SPF protection during the day, if i was to use this as a day foundation, so it doesnt become too weightless when you gotta put on a sunscreen underneath.. Maybe this is only cause im a freak for sunscreen cause im as pale as a marshmallow !!

Complete random fact. but on the topic of sunscreen, i cant believe they sold sunscreen with SPF 50+ in Hawaii and after i had my little freak out session pf excitement, i looked along the shelf and saw that it went up in 5 until it hit SPF110+ haha i still cant get over how awesome that is.. I think we only make it upto SPF30+ here in Australia, anything higher is probably hard to find considering ive never seen it before.. Just a quick note on how pale i am, i still burnt through SPF50+... yepp !! i told you, marshmallow !!!

This was  the first Max Factor foundation ive tried and for that price tag, im a bit iffy of whether id try one again.. I have to admit though, the only reason i bought this was cause the girl in the advertisement for it was sooo pretty, so i had to atleast go and check it out ! I know all Max Factor products arent this bad because if you know me personally or ive done your makeup before, you would have heard me ramble on about the fact that the best mascara in the whole entire world is Max Factor False Lash Effect, but thats another post in itself, which i have already mentioned before in my 5 most used products post.

So tell me, what do you guys think of Max Factor and what have you tried that i should try ? Whos tried this foundation and loves it, or even hates it like me?

Love S xx
