Lakme recently launched the Weightless
Mousse Foundation and I immediately wanted to try it
out. you don’t like heavy foundations and you all for the weightless, natural
feel so this seemed perfect for me. Lakme sent over a sample in the shade Beige
Vanilla, which is slightly
light for your skin tone but you can still make it work because of the
texture.
The all new Lakmé 9 to 5 Weightless Mousse Foundation certainly lives
up to its name. Lightweight by nature; it effortlessly blends into the skin and
achieves the perfect coverage for a flawless yet natural, everyday look. It has
moisturising qualities but also gives a matte finish that lasts all day long
and is ideal for all skin types.
- Lightweight formula
- Easy blending
- Desired coverage for daily use
- Suitable for all skin types
- Matte finish
- The foundation comes
in four shades. The Beige ones are for warmer skin tones and the Rose ones
are for lighter skin tones and will probably have more pink in them. Vanilla is, it still works
but I do need to mix in a bit of my own foundation to get the perfect
color.
- The foundation has a
very siliconey primer like feel to it. Everytime you put this on, you feel
like you are actually applying a primer and not a foundation. No
complaints because it means that true to its name, the weightless
foundation is really weightless! It has a very soft mousse like texture
that immediately blends into the skin and turns matte. You don’t need to
set the foundation with powder because it feels like powder on the
skin. If you have very oily skin, this texture is just perfect for
you. If you have dry skin, make sure to moisturise beforehand else it
might be too dry on the skin and cling to the dry patches
- While you love the
texture of the foundation, you wish it offered more coverage. It does not
conceal blemishes or dark circles so if you are looking for a foundation
that does all that, you will be disappointed. However, if you are looking
for a light-medium coverage foundation for daily wear , it can be a good
choice.
- The foundation lasts
for about 3-4 hours on me. Make sure to moisturise properly before
applying the product so that it does not turn patchy.
