I’m so excited to start sharing with you my thoughts about Honest Beauty products! This company is an off-shoot of The Honest Company, and it’s focus is on creating beauty products that look great and that are honestly free of ingredients that are questionable for our health and wellness. If you are new to the company, you should start with my Honest Beauty free trial post and learn how to snag some great freebies. Let’s dive in!
Today we are going to look more closely at the Honest Beauty Everything Cream Foundation. I am quite pale, so I ordered the lightest shade, Snow.
Here’s a look at the outside of the compact. So shiny!!!
Inside you’ll find a cream type foundation (frankly, it seems like a small amount!) and underneath the foundation is where you’ll find the applicator, which is a thin, round sponge.
As you can see from the photo, I find it quite difficult to keep the compact looking nice and neat, as I tend to swipe my sponge over the product before applying it.
Now I want to show you what an application of the foundation looks like on my skin. I applied moisturizer several hours before I took this shot, and I do NOT have on any type of BB cream, or any other makeup for that matter. Also, I’m 35 and have two young kids, so please have mercy on my honest photo!
Ok, so here’s my assessment: first, I do think the foundation looks better in my case with a BB cream underneath, but that’s because I do need a heavier amount of coverage due to having splotchy skin.
I do notice a difference in the appearance of my fine lines, so that’s a big plus!
I also have noticed that the shade is a hair lighter than my skin tone. I think that as we head further into fall and then into winter, it will work for me. It’s borderline right now. When I tried it on a month ago it was just too light.
For me, there’s no way to use this without my beloved concealor as well, but that’s pretty much par for the course for me. I’d call the coverage medium.
So…I like it. I don’t LOVE it, and I’m quite curious to see just how long it will last, as again, it doesn’t appear to me to be a large amount of product, so I’m concerned that I’ll run out very quickly once it becomes my everyday choice. I’ll try to update you once I know for sure (though I’m putting this one away for one more month to let my skin get a bit more pale before I start using it).
How to Buy It:
So Honest Beauty, as you may know, offers bundles where you can choose 3 products for $50, and shipping is free. You are signing up for a subscription, but it’s EASY to change the date and push back your next subscription as many times as you want without penalty. Canceling just requires a phone call and they give you NO hassle.
This product, if you purchase it a la carte, is $30, so if it works for you, it’s a STEAL to put in your bundle. I haven’t tried this, but if this was a product I LOVED, I’d attempt to buy 3 at a time to see if that’s allowed for the bundle. Let us know if you’ve tried it! 🙂
And if you have tried this product, let us know in the comments what shade you tried and what you thought about it.
