Just when you think there’s nothing else that base can bring, along comes Too Faced Born This Way Foundation; an oil free, coconut water infused blend with a dash of hyaluronic for good measure.
Too Faced Born This Way Foundation is a return to a higher level of coverage, but with excellent blendability and a ‘real skin’ look. In fact, when I tested it, I thought it felt a bit dry on application, but in terms of how skin looks with it on, there is definitely a gleam to the finish with light bounce that looks anything but dry. One of the main sells of Too Faced Born This Way Foundation is that it’s undetectable on the skin which I didn’t find particularly accurate, but that’s not to say that my skin didn’t look pretty damn good!
In terms of colour choice – only 12 which is poor, but if you find a colour match, I really think that there is a lot to be said for this formula. Containing Alpine Rose extract for brightening, hyaluronic for smoothing and coconut water for hydration, it’s perfect for older skin types who want a non-oily, dewy finish but some decent coverage at the same time.

Genuinely, I didn’t think I was going to like this product, but now that I’ve been hands-on with it, it gets a very high recommendation from me as a good weight foundation softens the look of your skin. Too Faced isn’t necessarily a brand that would attract older women, so Born This Way seems like a solid step into every-age beauty. It’s launching at Debenhams for £29 in August.

I am a big fan of Too Faced but I haven’t tried any of their previous foundations. I really like the sound of this product. Definitely need to get my hands on it when it comes out. Thanks for the honest review.

I love Too Faced products, tried a sample of this and I do love it. They are fetching out more lighter shades in the Fall, hopefully they will have one to match my very pale skin tone.x
I can’t wait to try this foundation. I heard that they are bringing lighter and darker shades out soon, I’ll have to wait for that as I’m the sister of Casper x
I’ve never tried any Too Faced products before but perhaps this is a good place to start! It sounds like there’s a lot of beneficial ingredients in the foundation! x
I think 12 shades is actually pretty decent! It’s usually half that for mainstream brands.
Woah. I think I need this in my life!!!
