Flawless skin - Foundation review 2

In this review I would like to talk about a product which is not well known, Kett Creme Fixx foundation. I have been wanting to try for a long time after watching a lot of Wayne Goss videos on YouTube (gossmakeupartist). He frequently mentioned this foundation in a number of videos and raved about how beautiful and flawless it looks on any skin type or age. I was champing at the bit to try it.... But I am easily distracted. 

So I toyed with the idea, had a look on Guru Makeup Emporiums website, and lovemakeup.com, and sure enough, individual pots and palettes were available to buy online. I remained sceptical though and put off my purchase in favour of using the products I know work for me and most ladies. 

How silly I was. Silly Nelly. 

I did bite the bullet eventually and bought it the other week, I was so excited when it arrived! I bought 2 shades and a palette to pop them in. However, after a disappointing start, I am now completely in love with the product. 

My shade is N3, the N standing for Neutral tone (some yellow and some pink tones), but the foundation also comes in Olive (more yellow) and Ruby tones (more pink). At first I applied the product with a brush, it's quite thick and perhaps I could even describe it as waxy, but it softens and becomes more pliable with the warmth of your skin, making it easy to blend. The product is not greasy or oily, it just feels a bit difficult to work with at first. It just seemed to sheer out too much on my own skin when I used a brush to apply but as say, I wasn't that impressed at first. I can only assume the primer I used didn't agree with it because the next day I used it over my Laura Mercier primer and applied it with my fingers. It made a massive difference. 

I then used it on a bridesmaid, who had good skin, and chose to use the brush again to sheer it out. It looked completely stunning. It just goes to show, its good to test and try things out with different primers or bases.   

It totally evened out her complexion, didn't sit in pores, eliminated redness and photographed really well. The product itself is intended to be specifically kind to acne prone, sensitive, oily, spot prone skin - containing liquorice and vitamins which have healing properties.  It is long lasting, great coverage, build-able too so can be a concealer as well as foundation, it comes in a great range of colours for darker skins, and a little goes a long way. It makes skin look beautiful, uniform, clear and just lovely!! - Wayne Goss was telling the truth.

I wore it again the other day to work, then I went for a run after. It was still in place after a long stressful day and after a 5k run. I had no break outs and although it was a bit oily looking, it passed the *"nelly's-oily-red-running-stress-face-test :-) *patent pending :-P. 

For a pot of it - you would be looking at £23.00. For a makeup artist, a palette of either ruby, olive or neutral tones of which you get 6 shades in each was £69. 99. I bought an empty palette for £11.95 and two separate palette refill shades in N3 and N5 of the foundation for £11.95. 

This is my favourite foundation at the moment. Well done Kett, I love this product and strongly recommend it. :-) xxx
