Innisfree Smart Foundation (Super Moisture) Review

Yo!

So I know I did a little review on Instagram already on this foundation

May I introduce my current favorite foundation 😊 the Innisfree Smart Foundation-- Super Moisture. I tried it out once last year but for some reason thought it was just nice but wasn't too crazy about it. Started using it regularly since mid-April and I've been loving it 💕💕💕 like I look forward to using it every day 😍 first, I LOVE how it only has 15ml... Honestly the standard 30ml is too much for me 😂 I like to switch up my foundations so this is the perfect size. Coverage-wise... It's light. I would probably compare it to Bobbi Brown Skin Foundation (YSL Touché Éclat definitely has much more coverage). Even though it's Super Moisture... It doesn't make me oily, and wears really well throughout the day (with or without my sunscreen). The finish is dewy and super skin-like... I think that's why I love it so much. I'm thinking I might be enjoying this foundation so much more this time around because my skin has been really really good this year since I started eating pretty clean, so I prefer light coverage foundations now. Haven't tried the Long Lasting or the Water Balancing ones. Didn't buy the Perfect Cover one cuz I heard it's really thick and impossible to blend. By the way... Each foundation is $6. CAN'T BEAT THAT PRICE!!!!! 👍👍👍👍👍 #innisfree #smartfoundation #foundation #makeup #review #instareview #beautyblogger #bblogger #koreanmakeup #cheapandcheerful

But! A review WITH PICTURES is in order to do this foundation justice =P

Still haven't tried out the other two... I'll get there haha.

Got mine from Innisfreeworld.com but it's not there anymore O_O the other smart foundations are though. Maybe it's just temporarily out of stock?? I hope it's not discontinued O_____O



My shade for Innisfree is #23








How do I describe this... it's a gel-like texture, but sticky gel? The closest thing I can compare it to is the Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua (which I gave away to a friend cuz I don't use it and she loves it) but Innisfree is stickier/more moist. Please understand I'm not saying the two foundations are similar because they're not. Chanel VA also dries to a semi-matte/satin finish, while Innisfree has a dewy finish.

... why my lips look so purple here. Ew. Haha

I think this will be the last time I put up after-Anessa photos. I'll just mention it from here on out. You guys get the gist now right? lol


With Innisfree Super Moisture Smart Foundation







Overall effect

It's a dewy look ^_^ you guys can probably tell I'm really into dewy look these days. I feel like dewy complexion really does take years off your face. Haha.


I know I mentioned in my Instagram review that it's super skin-like. Well maybe not because it makes your skin extra glowy so you know that there's something on the face XD but you can't deny it blends into the skin super well.





















This works well with both my Anessa and Dior sunscreen. I have to say I noticed not all of my foundations look great with my Anessa sunscreen... but this foundation pairs extremely well with both. It just adheres to skin so well so I think that's why it's extra forgiving.

Not much to say. You guys already know I adore this foundation. It looks natural, wears well, doesn't make me extra oily even though it's "super moisture". Honestly, I've got nothing to pick on-- this puts a lot of high end, expensive foundations to shame in my opinion. The only thing I can think why ppl wouldn't like this foundation would be it does have a slightly stickier finish. But nothing a little bit of setting powder won't fix. I don't normally powder because it's not that bad.

Conclusion? Best $6 spent!
