Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum Gel Foundation

I'm definitely a big fan of Bourjois foundations and regularly use their Bourjois 10 Hour Sleep Effect Foundation and Healthy Mix Foundation. I think their foundations have a lovely light texture that provide medium coverage and feel great on the skin. So I was really excited to try their new 'Healthy Mix Serum Gel Foundation'.

Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum Gel Foundation contains lychee, goji and pomegranate extracts, which work to erase signs of fatigue and achieve a revived and even complexion lasting 16 hours. It's new blending gel texture promises to glide onto the skin for an even, natural finish with no 'mask' effect.

I have been using this foundation almost daily and am loving it! Where the original Healthy Mix let me down, being a little drying (review here), the new gel formula is gorgeous. First of all, let me clear one thing up, this foundation is not actually a gel. It's just a more serum, liquidy texture that gives your skin a radiant glow and stops your foundation from drying out after a few hours wear.

The foundation comes in 6 shades. I use #53 in Light Beige.

So overall I think it's a great foundation because it blends really nicely, provides medium long-lasting coverage and smells fresh and yummy too! And for only £10.99 I think that's a steal :) You can buy it online here. 

To apply my foundation I have been using a new brush by KIM Professional Makeup recently.

KIM F251 Face Brush 

'Large round brush designed specifically for application of wet make-up. The white synthetic and soft hair combination allows for maximum colour and liquid retention'. It's very similar to my MAC 187 Stipling Brush that I usually use. I definitely prefer applying my foundation with stipling brushes over flat foundation brushes because I feel it gives a more 'airbrushed' finish.
