AD Elizabeth Arden Flawless Finish Skincaring Foundation & Flawless Start Hydrating Serum Primer

I’m always so pleased when a really exceptional foundation for all skin types appears because there is such a gap in the market for it. While I love dewy skin, I recognise that it’s not for everyone and that there is a very fine line between dewy and shiny, so Elizabeth Arden Flawless Finish Skincaring Foundation bridges the gap between matte and dewy as a ‘natural’ finish – meaning that it mimics your own skin’s appearance. It won’t flatten, and neither will it create shine, with the extra bonus that it contains ingredients more often found in skin care than make-up – 87% skin caring ingredients in fact!

Anti-humidity is a concept taken from countries in the world where humidity is high – it’s something that we really haven’t taken much notice of in the temperamental British weather but we can get some very hot and sweaty days in summer so I’m glad it’s being addressed in formulas now, especially as masks exacerbate things. Anti-humidity and anti-sweat simply means that the foundation is made to stay and won’t slide off your face when the sun and temperature rise or when you’re wearing your mask.

Luminosity formulas are all very well don’t stand up to sweat and humidity very well. Add in Hyaluronic acid, vitamin C and vitamin E to a formula that feels so light and natural on the complexion and you have a winner. Elizabeth Arden uses the Findation (www.elizabetharden.co.uk) colour match tool that allows you to accurately pick the right shade based on any other colours you use and like from any other brand. It works and I know because I’ve used it myself – it’s the future of foundation ordering, I think. You can see from my pictures that Elizabeth Arden Flawless Finish Skincaring Foundation gives – your skin will feel supple and hydrated while looking comfortable and soft.

I love the idea of a specifically made primer as foundation partner – Elizabeth Arden Flawless Start Hydrating Serum Primer uses a microfluidic droplets – fancy for tiny droplets of oil in water – so you get a beautiful, hydrated sensation in a cool-feel serum. It’s boosted with hyaluronic acid and lets your foundation glide over smoothed skin. You can, of course, use one without the other but they are a match made in heaven. Flawless Start Primer is £28 HERE and Flawless Finish Skincaring Foundation is £32 HERE . There are 40 shades to choose from so there really is something for everyone.

There’s a lovely introductory offer if you are tempted to try the Elizabeth Arden Flawless Start Skincaring Foundation using the on-line Findation Tool to pick your exact match with £5 off until 21st April.  If you pick up both, you’ll also receive a make-up bag to keep them in using my code, BEAUTY.

    Wow, right my cuppa tea! You look just radiant – and I see lovely even toned skin, NOT a foundation – that’s the goal I always have in mind while using any foundation/bb/cc (probably that’s why I nearly don’t use it at all: always have feeling it’s SEEN… it’s more in my head, I know…) Thanks for the news!

      It’s definitely a comfort fit on the skin especially with the serum – got an IGTV coming up (if you are on Instagram) so you can see exactly how it covers.

    That is such a pretty finish; your skin looks absolutely radiant.

    Do you have any idea why Elizabeth Arden is so impossible to find in the United States these days? I suppose I should specify that that question is about the pre-covid days, but it’s probably not better. It’s just disappearing and I really hope to go back to in-person makeup shopping at some point. This foundation has low reviews on the US website specifically because the color matcher has provided bad matches.

      I don’t know in all honesty. All I can say re the matching is that it gave me an exact match – I was amazed! I wonder if they use a different system in the US?

    Gosh, that’s a lovely finish. Right up my street. Thanks.
