Manic Panic Dreamtone Liquid Flawless Foundation
This was somethingI ordered on a whim, and I am so happy I did. This is supposed to be used to lighten any foundation you own if it is too dark for your skin tone. I have always wanted to pick something like this up, I looked into The Body Shop’s version of this, and the NYX one, but I last minute decided on this one. Kathleen Lights raves about this, which always heavily influences me we all know. I really wanted a product that was thin enough not to completely change the finish of feel of whatever foundation I add it to. This is both thin and crazy pigmented at the same time, and it barely changes the consistency of whatever I mix it with.
Shade
Virgin (pure white)
When choosing a foundation mixer, I went with white instead of a darkening one, as I tend to accidentally buy darker foundations much more often than ones that are too light. It is much easier to make a foundation a shade too light look natural (bronzer, blending, etc.) than it is to make a darker one, so having a white mixer felt neccessary. I think this would also be a great thing for make up artists to have in their kits, to help adjust their shades perfectly to all different clients.
Cost
$11.50
This is pretty cheap, which is great! This is cheaper than a lot of my drugstore foundations even.
Product Amount
1 oz
Standard, usual amount, no complaints here.
Finish/Coverage
This does not really change the coverage and finish of whatever foundation I am adding it to. It might make it a tiny bit more opaque, but not in a noticeable way at all.
Longevity
I haven’t notice this change the wear time of any of my foundations yet, but once I play around with it more with different foundations and concealers, I will update!
Let me know your favorite mixing products, especially if you have a darkening one, because I would love to pick one of those up next!
Glowingly yours,
Jess
