I've
been loyal to Lily Lolo ever since I discovered them about 6 years ago,
and have seen them go from strength to strength. Their mineral
foundation is almost the only foundation I will use, due to the
combination of it's gentle formula and my temperemental skin. Recently,
the brand have had a complete facelift and I will admit to being very
excited when I finally ran out of my current pot of foundation (this
stuff lasts!) and was able to get in on the action myself!
The
previously white (and therefore easily marked with makeup) packaging is
gone, in it's place a sleek black matte design with sharp edges and a
subtle logo. It's not something which affects the quality of the
foundation of course, but it really does make a huge difference to how
the product is presented - it looks much more sophisticated and clean. I
absolutely love it - it's nice to have a little shakeup every now and
then and Lily Lolo have got it just right.
This
post is really more about the rebrand than the foundation itself,
however I will pop in a little note on the product: this stuff doesn't
break me out at all and when I wear it I really do feel like I'm not
wearing foundation at all. There's nothing worse than that caked on
feeling which thankfully this doesn't even come close to achieving. It
blends like a dream (I use Lily Lolo's kabuki brush) and there are a
fair few shades to choose from. The coverage I would say is medium - it
looks very natural, but I like to add concealer if I'm going out in the evenings to
really cover up any marks. All in all, I can't recommend Lily Lolo
enough! A little less expensive than other mineral makeup brands out
there as well, which is a bonus.
