I am now a convert to my own foundation, specially made, for dark skin tones
Posted by Saji on 9th Oct 2019
Hello again!
Using myself as a guinea pig for my foundation has fortunately turned out well for me. The very least I could have hoped for was to come away from it all with the skin on my face still perfectly intact. Truth be told, coming out of my testing with my skin still looking normal if nothing else would have been a good start. But I had the best possible outcome. Like a dream, not only is my skin healthy after wearing this foundation ( I have NOT suffered a single pimple, breakout, patchiness, dryness, redness, etc. instead my skin is smooth and supple), I had come up with a foundation, specially made for dark skin that was wearable, smooth and matte. Not only that...this is now the only foundation I wear. I'm serious. After a week straight of wearing this foundation, I am a convert. I have not gone back to wearing any of the store bought foundations currently in my possession. Honestly, the foundations I had been using up until recently, all of which are meant to blend in with my dark skin tone, do not give me the polished look that my created foundation gives me. My foundation gives the skin a rich brown appearance and excellent coverage, without that ashy look that we all know and dread. I do not even bother to wear concealer or setting powder because I find that there is no need to do so. And at the end of a long work day, the makeup is still smooth and in place on my face. Also, I cannot see any oxidation or change in color occurring with the foundation on your face overtime.
But there is still a lot of work ahead of me before this foundation is complete and ready to share with the public. The next step is stability testing. How does the structural integrity of this formula hold up? This will be tested under various laboratory conditions which replicate the life cycle of the product. This will take time and patience, but good things are worth waiting for.
