![]() The result? Full coverage instantaneously.Īs for longevity, the brand promises 24-hour with the Born This Way Matte Foundation, which I was not willing to put to the test (nor do I think anyone should really be wearing foundation for that long). I prefer to use my Beautyblender to apply all of my foundations and especially with this formula but tried applying it with a brush. ![]() It blends very, very easily, and you can layer it from medium to full opacity without it starting to look like cake batter. It's the silkiest, lightest matte foundation I've tried. Don't get me wrong: it's definitely still matte - it doesn't make your skin look dewy or radiant in the least - but your skin still looks like skin, just a lot less shiny.Īfter trying it (I'm shade Nude), I'd have to guess that the Matte Foundation's supremely natural looking matte finish comes down to the texture of the liquid. It's even softer than velvet, perhaps like the marble of an ancient Greek statue - soft, smooth, dimensional, but it's not reflecting light in a strong way. I wouldn't call the formula velvety, either (a common beauty editor word often used to describe matte base products). Right photo: Me wearing Too Faced Born This Way Matte Foundation. ![]() I have combination skin, and the formula is great at mattifying the oily bits along the centre of my face, without making the dry areas look even drier (although, I can imagine if you have very dry skin, this formula is not going to provide the moisture or luminosity you need). It's not a heavy-duty or dusty-looking, though. Whereas the original Born This Way Foundation offers a "natural," ever-so-slightly luminous finish that mimics the texture of natural skin, Born This Way Matte is well, like the name suggests: matte. The difference between the two is down to the finish and the wear time. The Matte Foundation still comes in 35 shades and features the exact same names, so if you're Hazelnut in the original formula, you're probably still going to be Hazelnut in the matte one. The formula offers the same medium-to-full coverage, contains the same key ingredients (coconut water, alpine rose, and hyaluronic acid), and remains oil-free. There are a lot of similarities between the Born This Way Matte version and the original. ![]() Now, Too Faced is expanding the range further with the introduction of the Too Faced Born This Way Matte Foundation, which launched on its website today. Since then, the brand has launched a complementary concealer, tapped Jackie Aina to help extend the shade range, created a powder version, and all to great acclaim. It's been almost five years since Too Faced launched its bestselling Born This Way Natural Finish Foundation, a medium-to-full coverage foundation that promised to do everything you want a foundation to do but without looking visibly makeup-y. ![]()
