BH Cosmetics Foundation Review!!

Ok, so on my Instagram and in a previous blog post I mentioned my displeasure with the BH Cosmetics Foundation. To be fair, it was more so worry than anything. It's been an experience but let me just tell you - I was pretty wrong about this one. Read on to find out about this... experiment.

So a few days ago I got my first package from BH Cosmetics. Included in the package was the BH Cosmetics HD Studio Pro HD Foundation. I was understandably hesitant about buying a foundation online that I couldn't match. Although, I've found that with my skin tone - going with the lightest shade available is usually a good bet.

What sealed the deal for me (just like every other BH item), was the price! It was less than $10 (USD) and I felt like I needed to branch out. I bit the bullet and ordered it.

Under lighting it's flawless... Without lighting, it's a pre-teen nightmare.

When it came in, I immediately swatched it. This was where it got scary. The color that came out was promising and it started to look like a good match. Then it started getting darker!! It had oxidized on my hand! Now, I had seen it oxidize on one or two videos on YouTube. I knew the risks. I was just so sad because the coverage really looked great and it felt like a great formula.

I left it alone for a couple of days. I was still so sad about the outcome I had when swatching it. Then I decided to give it another try. This time, I vigorously shook the bottle for about 30 seconds. Maybe that would help.

Well, it certainly seemed to because as it dried it wasn't nearly as dark. It was still noticeably darker, but more promising than the first swatch test. I was hesitant, but couldn't go without a full on face test. I felt it was my duty, even if it oxidized to tell you what happened. It's a service, really.

The next morning I did it up. I put the product on the back of my hand and did a base coat with my beauty blender. It wasn't oxidizing! I put a second layer on, and was so pleased with how build-able it was. Still no mismatched face and neck! Was this even the same foundation I swatched a few days before? What was happening?! The completed look was brilliant! It looked flawless! You can see the finished product on my Instagram.

I don't know what kind of magic happened, or maybe it was just how I was applying it. This foundation was just a complete shock. A scary, confusing, surprising shock. I WILL buy this foundation again. So I guess you could call the entirety of that BH Cosmetics haul a complete and total success! Way to go BH! Keep slaying!
