Joy of Liquids and Makeup Experiments

What is the big difference in using liquid foundation over any sort of foundation out there? I reckon answers will vary among powder fans and liquid fans alike. We can raise as many arguments as we can and still fail to convert one to the other. Are we really after conversion? I hope not.

Personally, I believe that it entirely depends on the user’s comfort. It is after all their discretion and personal know-how that will matter. Bottomline, one’s skin preference will ultimately differ from the other and it’s just a matter of finding the right form of foundation which will suit their needs best. So far, it’s liquid for me.

Face Architect Smoothing Fluid Foundation

Face Architect Smoothing Fluid Foundation lays the foundation for all of your beauty-full makeup creations. A high concentration of depsea water allows the formula to go on like silk, leaving skin hydrated and refreshed. The lightweight foundation is designed to smooth out imperfections, such as uneven skin tone and texture, for a naturally flawless finish.

The liquid foundation I had found offered by Asian beauty brand Shu Uemura, Face Architect Smoothing Fluid Foundation, is just one of the options available in that form. Reading up on what it offers has had me wanting to test the product out to see how it fares against the current one I’m using.

I like the idea that it has a silk-like feel upon application. Knowing that it hydrates and refreshes the skin while wearing the makeup earns it plus points in my book. I’m all for makeup that cares for the skin, too. It’s allergy tested and non-comedogenic.

I’m still open to other forms of foundation. I’m the type to give things multiple opportunities to get to my good graces; a firm believer of second chances. Like what I learned a few days back, situations can change and timing may be off at the time of use, hence, the poor performance.

But like with any other piece of makeup, I can never be entirely sure of its effectiveness unless I give it a go. Though there are risks to experimenting, I don’t want to look back and regret not having tried it and miss a possible treasure.

So, my dear beauties, have you ever considered giving certain products a try and finding a treasure? Also, if any of you are using this particular liquid foundation, do you mind sharing your thoughts on it?

The Face Architect Smoothing Fluid Foundation is available in roughly 17 shades that may just suit all skin tones and is priced at $42 over at Sephora.
