Review- Benefit Hello Flawless Oxygen Wow Foundation



 Hayya Lovely's, so after my last post I have had a lot of requests to do a review on the Benefit Hello Flawless foundation so that is what I'm doing today.

Benefit says
"Hello…it’s flawless time! Our new oil-free brightening liquid foundation builds from light to medium coverage for a natural complexion you can believe in. It’s you…just more luminous & healthy looking."

Hello Flawless Details 
- Oil Free Formula
- Natural Finish 
- Hydrating 
-Available in 9 shades  
- SPF 25

First Thoughts
The statement on the box is right. It gives a lovely healthy look to the skin but I would say its more medium to full coverage. This is one of my favorite foundations right now, I will go to this when i dont need super high coverage that my Laura Murser foundation gives. It is a little dark on my skin tone but I work with it and it looks fine. I also love the packaging, it's so cute! The formula is super watery which is one of the down side for me as I prefer to work with thicker foundations. 

What I Love?
Benefit has really pulled this one off, their last foundation "Foundation Faker" I hated so thought I would not like this one too much but I really do like it a lot. The oil free formula is great as I do have oily skin so some foundations tend to slide off my face, this one does not. I love that it's natural looking on the skin so you can wear it through the day without having a caked finish. The foundation can be built from a medium to full coverage which I love.

What I Dont Like
I don't like the colour rage because I'm super pale so the foundation does not match too great which sucks. I also don't like that the foundation is so watery. 

What do you think of this foundation?

    Oh boooo! I really wanted to try this foundation but I'm that girl who's paler than ivory, as well): So strange when you're sat at the counter saying "this is a tad dark" and the make up artist looks at you and says "well, honey that's the lightest color we've got" Great review, I think I'll stick to my Chanel as of right now! :)
