Clinique Even Better Foundation

As you get older your skin requires even more attention due to sun damage, aging, hyper pigmentation, loss of elasticity. While there are many beauty creams out there that cater to these problems, finding a foundation that can help the outward appearance of the afore mentioned issues is a challenge. Something that will even out, correct and provide a healthy look to the face without the actual look of makeup is something we all look for in a foundation. Add the SPF factor...not too high that it might actually create a film and not too low either and anti oxidants to combat aging, you have yourself a winner.


This is the Clinique Even Better Foundation. I suppose the name means it better than other foundations because it gives you what most foundations do with the added benefits of an SPF and color correction properties.

Price: About 150 Dhs at Department Stores

Packaging: Little bottle with a plastic container that shows the color of the foundation inside. The cap is bright silver and twists down. It has a nozzle that dispenses the product when the bottle is slightly pressed.
I like how only a small amount of product comes out at a time.

Product: This product comes in amazing color range...30 shades that can be color matched to any ethnicity. Since it has anti oxidants and other skin goodness, with constant use it helps with spots and hyper pigmentation. 

As for the look it gives...it is one of my favorite higher end foundations. I just love the flawless finish it gives. There are luminous particles that, for lack of a better word, make your skin look luminous. It has very good wear, an easy 8 hours, your average day time, without any touch ups. I feel I need to powder the T-Zone. I believe it would work for normal to oily skin also with some powdering but not full on oily skin due to the fact that the dewiness would possible become an oil slick. 

It felt a bit heavy on my skin, but this feeling settled after a bit. But it does not look like you have a layer of makeup on, but it doesn't look like you have nothing on either, due to the fact it gives you at least medium coverage buildable up to full coverage. Also it doesn't smell like anything, so excellent for sensitive noses and skins.

I will definitely be repurchasing this one after I am done!!
