When it comes to finding the correct foundation for your skin tone I think we can unanimously agree that it’s often a tedious process. We have all been there; swatching a brand new foundation for the first time only to realise it’s a few shades too light or dark, making it an instantly unusable product.
So when I heard about the cruelty-free and vegan friendly Meroda Cosmetics Changing Foundation that adapts to your skin colour I was instantly intrigued and had to try it out for myself!
Not only does this unique foundation adapt perfectly to fair to medium skin tones but hides redness and blemishes with a light to medium coverage.
Hello to never experiencing a failed foundation shopping trip again!
Foundation Application
Finding my correct foundation shade over the years has been tricky, so tricky I have a drawer of redundant foundations gathering dusk. So to say when I got my hands on the Meroda Cosmetics Changing Foundation I was hopeful would be an understatement.
On first application using the ultra-soft 2-in-1 Build & Conceal Brush, I immediately noticed the almost white foundation start to quickly adapt to my skin tone with the pigment within the formula changing to something light in colour, similar to my natural skin colour, with subtle yellow undertones to give a healthy-looking glow.
When a foundation matches seamlessly with the skin it is a thing of beauty and I can truly say once a full face application of the Changing Foundation had been applied, I was suitably impressed with how my skin looked! Not only did the foundation match my neck but all redness to my complexion was gone without a heavy, cakey look to the skin.
Formulation
As for the formula which boasts an spf 15, the application feels almost effortless whether you opt to use the 2-in-1 brush, which I must say I love due to the fact it has a smaller end ideal for getting around the sides of the nose and the under eyes, or simply use your fingers. With a slightly creamy gel-like feel Meroda’s Changing Foundation glides over the skin, blending seamlessly while changing to your correct foundation shade.
It’s also worth noting my skin didn’t feel weighed down or uncomfortable, I’m sure the fact that this foundation is suitable for sensitive skin also helps here.
Foundation Wear Time
Another important factor when it comes to foundation is how the formula wears on the skin during the day. I like to believe my skin type is a good indicator of how well a foundation will last as with combination skin I deal with a bit of everything - from an oily T-zone that can cause some foundation to breakdown throughout the dry to dry patches that a lot of formulas like to cling to. However, I am happy to report that Meroda Cosmetics Changing Foundation with its waterproof formulation fairs extremely well when it comes to staying power with a full day of even wear that still looks fresh even towards the end of the day.
Overall Thoughts
Had I come across the Meroda Cosmetics Changing Foundation sooner I would have saved myself a lot of time and money over the years in my constant attempt to find my right colour match. But alas, at least we now have such a foundation!
I believe this is one of the best options if you have fair to medium skin with yellow undertones and you can’t go wrong with the matching 2-in-1 brush either - that thing is super soft and blends seamlessly!
