SK II Skin Signature Cream In Foundation

Been eyeing to get this for a while but has not gotten the time to shop , speaking of which I have been an extremely good girl of late *lol*, has not shopped for a single piece of cosmetics, that I have pita to thank for *winks*. (she is everything I work for today, meh I enslaved myself into serving her and only her). Anyway, SK-II. a pricey products that I have stopped investing into for nearly 10 years now, I used to be their loyal customer for  wee years then. Bought them in kg every month without knowing why ahahaha...those were the day.  

Reason of me buying this ? well hmm not that their product has better cosmetic/packaging  I have seen better. but since my age now required me to get a better foundation to ease  my starting-to-age-skin situation, so I got it. ahahahah...nahhh I do not need a reason to get things. I usually get anything however and whenever I want. 

The SA that served at the outlet nearby my house is a little raw when it comes to ahem customer service, looking at her I said to myself in silent let it be , I am not going to give her hard time for once. She is raw in the way of trying to swatch the shade on the back of my hand (good lord) you know testing facial products on the back of your hand is very beneficial only for the back of your hand. I am there to buy a foundation that is cater for my face not my hand. So I told her, NOT MY HAND but my neck please ! trick that I learned very quickly for over the years in makeup is that, I do not test any foundation shades on my face but my neck instead, if the shade fits, the rest of my face makeup will blend in very well and the overall look would be nothing but perfect. I never, ever walk out of my house having my face looking fairer then my neck or vice verse. Finally she checked me out with just the foundation that comes with the sponge ???? where is the casing I asked???? she looks at me stunned with her mouth half open (I wonder I should laugh or to keep real quiet?) seconds later she said to me..."oooo that you have to buy the casing separately at the price of RM69" .... then I said : "oooooooo, why didn't you mention this before? and I would certainly like my foundation to go with a casing, I don't do no casing regardless I have to buy it separately?" another silent pause from her, then she continues " errrr because a lot of customers say that the casing is expensive so they rather not have it" ... I am not one of those customers, so I must get it period. Now that you know why I said she is raw. tsk tsk tsk !

Tips for buying the right foundation that I practice :

1) Bring your own handy LED light

2) Bring your own foundation + a brush or clean sponge

3) Bring your own makeup remover, preferably in sheets form

4) Wipe away the foundation you already applied, i.e on the side that is near to your ear or your neck, you do not have to wipe it all away alright. Take 10 mins let your face calm down, then test the foundation shades you intend to buy. Do not rush yourself, give yourself ample times to test and buy the right shade, hey it is your money and I am sure you want to buy the exact shade that best suits you. No one is going to bite nor rush you so please do not be embarrassing. 

5) Wipe away whatever you have tested on your face, and re-apply the shade you have brought with you from home but if the new shade match then leave it as it is.

Ok how do I like about this foundation ? Let's see...

Coverage : Sheer to Medium which is fine for me, I do not have so much of skin problem, thus I do not really need a full coverage foundation. The coverage for this is perfect. 

Consistency : Creamy but buttery smooth, thus it is best to apply this type of foundation with a brush. you will be wasting it if you apply this with a sponge. You can use a sponge to even it out later. 

Staying Power : I can wear this for a good 8 hours without having to touch up whatsoever, then to be honest, I am in my 40s, I have a real mature skin, that could be a tad dry thus it lasted. this could be the case you see. So sometimes, one foundation works for others might not work just as fine for you, unless you know your skin condition really well and buying the right foundation is the key to lasting flawless makeup. 

Shades : Various plus they have whitening range as well

Price : Moisturizing RM 199 / Whitening RM 159

Crimson Casing sold separately for RM69

All in all, I love this foundation,because it is easy to use and it did not cause breakouts which is a plus . It leaves my skin looking radiant and well moisturized. love it.

p/s : I have yet to come across wearing any foundation that will oxidize or turn into funky color after few hours of application. I have none of such mentioned encounter. I too never having to worry about touching up coz all of what I have they usually stay put until I remove it.hmmm...
