Hey there! It has been a very loooong time since my last update on this blog. Well, this may sound quite embarrassing but the main reason why I couldn't write these past few months is...I forgot that I have a blog. Yeah I know, I'm really forgetful and inconsistent with my writings but I was busy living my life and it's just today that I found some time to write again and take some pictures and make this blog quite alive again, hehe. Alright, I should really cut now my silly introduction. Today I'm going to write a short review on my everyday foundation, the Peripera Airy Ink Foundation.
I bought this from Shopee Philippines last December 2017 for only Php 549 (appx 11 USD). The product comes in this very handy clear matte finished plastic pump bottle. I honestly first thought that the bottle was somewhat glass and not plastic because of how it looks but after a thorough personal investigation, I am convinced that it was plastic. The bottle contains 30 ml of the product and from my experience, it can last long since it has been 6 months already but I still have a lot left.
So the shade I got is 03 Sand which is the darkest shade available. I am a "morena", the Filipino term for brown-skinned that is why although this is the darkest shade it is still quite brighter than my skin tone which I don't really like but I don't really hate either. Anyway, it also has an SPF 30 PA++ which means that the UV protection of this product is 30 times more effective on protecting your skin against redness due to the sun than going out and applying nothing.
One pump is enough to cover my whole face. I don't go beyond that because it can get really white, patchy and cakey when layering this foundation especially that I do not have a perfect skin, I mean I do have acne and my face can get really oily which could somehow ruin the finish of this foundation.
This foundation dries fast so better blend it really quick. I have tried applying this with foundation brush and sponges but I like it much better blending it with just my fingers, it's very much quicker that way.
So this is the coverage of the foundation on my hand. As you can see, it can get really white on my skin, its difference between my bare skin is very visible in the picture. I am so sorry I couldn't swatch it on my face, I am kind of running out of time to do it. Anyway, I am wearing a hijab (Muslim headscarf) so the unevenness is not really a problem with me since I am covering the rest of my body.
You may be wondering why this is my everyday foundation although it didn't match my skin tone. Well, the main reason why I couldn't stop using this is because it is very light on the skin, like its name, it's airy. It's perfect in hot humid weather like here in the Philippines.
