Soft Focus Foundation and Setting Powder

First of all, "cashmere" means diffuse, natural finish and not a traditional matte texture. This foundation becomes one with your skin's surface without flattening out facial dimensions like a normal matte foundation. Your skin will look like your skin, but with a softer focus. Second, this really ...is a long-wear formulation. If you think you can wash off this powder foundation with just soap and water, you are in for a surprise during the toner step. Take this off your face like the long-wear foundation that it is. I can't speak for how water-proof or sweat-proof just yet, but I did make it through a humid, drizzly afternoon without needing to reapply. Also, different application methods will produce different results. A powder brush will give a light-coverage fluffy powder finish. The sponge provided or a make-up wedge leaves behind the diffuse, natural finish at light-to-medium coverage (which is how it looks best). A heavier application will bring a truer matte. A moisturizer or a sunscreen can be used underneath this foundation, but this can make the finish more natural than matte. I like using sponges with a light swiff across a general area and then firm pats to set it down. Patting helps reduce the appearance of pores. True to BB tradition, this foundation also photographs wonderfully. My happy discovery is that this is my new favorite setting powder for the BB corrector/concealers. I like using this as a true-to-skin-tone setting powder that increases the opacity of my corrector/concealer as opposed to a sheer, general toned one. Overall, the worse thing I can think of to say about this foundation is that may not be the best choice for mature skin. Dehydration, lines, and roughness are neither hidden or forgiven, but it won't make them look any worse. In the fine lines around the eyes or mouth, the foundation (by itself) hasn't created brittle creases or caked on me the same way other powder-finish foundations have before. People with oily skin may not be able to maintain the diffuse foundation texture for long without reapplying. Again, I struggle to think of real criticisms about this product that are within the scope of its design. I am really glad I gave this powder foundation a chance. It does exactly what it is advertised to do and even more if you try it as a new setting powder option.
