Hello everybody! Today's post is a beauty related one and is something my indecisive self had quite a hard time finishing. I'll be talking about foundations, specifically my favourite ones under different categories.
But first and foremost, let me just tell a few important deets to keep in mind about my skin. My skin type is dry combination, where my undereyes and forehead tends to get oily throughout the day whilst still having dry patches all over my face. Onto my skin tone, I lean more towards the morena spectrum which is usually the mediums. On the other hand, I actually have a neutral undertone, that's why I could sometimes get away with a little bit warm shades, and some cool shades as well.

I have here my top three foundations which I tend to gravitate to the most.
FINISH
Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation 5.75 Medium Warm: When it comes to overall look, my best pick would be the Luminous Silk since it has a very skin-like finish that goes really well with my skin, as most foundations normally tend to cling onto my dry patches and look cakey in the end. I've never experienced that with this one, hence it's the best for me to use on a daily basis. Also it's very lightweight which is a must for Philippines tropical weather.
Make Up For Ever HD Foundation 123/Y365 Desert: When it comes to coverage out of the three I think the HD foundation wins since it's super buildable and is what I usually use when I need a full glam. Most of my foundations are on the light-medium coverage, and so far this is the one the gives me the best coverage.
SHADE
MAC Studio Sculpt SPF 15 Foundation NC35: Shade-wise, would probably a tie between MUFE and MAC, throwing off the Giorgio since it looks a bit weird when applied to my temples and forehead area. The Studio Sculpt though, gives me the perfect balance between my face's and my body's skin tone. It is a peachy beige with peachy golden undertones and is truly the best match for my skin out of the three.
