Bourjois: Healthy Mix Serum Gel Foundation and Healthy Balance Unifying Powder

Bourjois is one of my favourite brads so when I spotted this foundation and powder a while ago I had to have it. What I liked about it straight away was the fruity smell, it's amazing and I've never tried a foundation or powder with a nice scent to it. But then again, the scent doesn't mean the product is great so.

I've been using Bourjois Healthy range for a while now and I have to say it is quite good comparing to what I've used before. It's really easy to blend in with fingers or a sponge however, I do prefer to use a brush. It lasts fairly long too, up to around 7 or 8 hours without fading which isn't bad, but definitely not 16 hours as it says on the package. Provides light to medium coverage (for me), has a nice, smooth texture and doesn't look cakey. I'm not too keen on the packaging though, I don't know. I think I just prefer a glass bottle like Revlon's.

The powder on the other hand has a nice packaging, red and slim, and is really light. Plus there is a mirror on the inside. It doesn't include a puff or a brush, which I don't mind because I use my own anyway. Coverage is light to medium too, but unlike the foundation it stays on for the promised 10 hours. It doesn't dry out the skin, which is great because my skin gets dry easily.

Overall, I don't think I will re-purchase the foundation just to try out new ones and I already have my favourite, and nothing has been able to beat it yet (Revlon PhotoReady). But I love the powder a lot, so I will  re-purchase this product. Unless I find something that works better for me.

My foundation is in shade 51 Light Vanilla and powder is in 52 Vanilla.
