BOURJOIS Healthy Mix Foundation  50 Rose Ivory I'm a huge fan of Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum and I think I'm currently on the fourth or fifth bottle, but the lightest shade is too dark and yellow for me. Bourjois made another set of changes to their original Healthy Mix Foundation and they also added a new shade called 50, so they finally created a paler and pink shade in at least one of their foundation lines. I'm happy to report that the new formula is much improved in my eyes, in fact it's very similar to the Serum and the new shade is "Snow White approved", so in the last three months I've found two new HG foundations ( Maybelline Fit Me Matte & Poreless in the shade 100 is the other, but I talked about it in my last two favourites, so I skipped it here). The new Healthy Mix Formula is now a light-medium coverage foundation with a natural, invisible finish and a nice healthy, dewy finish that is much less greasy looking than the very first versio

Colourpop Lippie Stix Matte X and Matte

When I was ordering from Colourpop the first time , I only got one L ippie Stix and it became an instant favourite. I literally mean instant because the moment it touched my lips, it became my favourite formula ever. When another free shipping offer came along I was also one of the sheeple who placed an order at Colourpop, but this one I only got Lippie Stixes. I got two in Matte X formula (like Cami) and two in Matte. It just confirmed to me that Matte X is a brilliant formula and I wish they had more shades that would appeal to me, but Matte was a bit of a let-down. I've already reviewed Cami  and you can find reviews of liquid lipsticks there too.  Since Matte X has been reviewed already, I'll be short here - it's incredibly pigmented, you barely touch your lips and you get enough colour. It's super light, like you have nothing on and it has a perfect matte finish, the best out of all regular lipsticks I found. It also lasts well on my lips and isn't drying. Asid

MAYBELLINE Fit Me Poreless + Matte 100 Warm Ivory I already have a full review about this, but of the shade 110 Porcelain which is the lightest we can get in Slovenia. I'm completely in love with this foundation, it's definitely up there tied with Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum as my favourite, it might be my all-time fave, I still need to see how it works all year round, but it's my preferred choice this summer. After years I finally had the chance to visit Austrian drugstores, which I realised now have almost identical assortment of products as Slovenia, so I was disappointed, but they do have three additional shades of this foundation, 100, 102 and 105. I have finally found my prefect match in both formula and colour - people, it's a miracle! 100 is almost the same as Fit Me Luminous + smooth version 110 , so about a shade lighter than Matte + Poreless 110 and it fits me pretty much perfectly. The undertone is yellow, but not intense as at Nars Siberia which is the ot
