Max Factor Miracle Touch Liquid Illusion Foundation - Cream Ivory (40) Review!


Today I'll be reviewing my Max factor Miracle Touch Liquid Illusion Foundation, boy that's a long name. I know most of us are always looking for the best foundation, which isn't too expensive and suits us well. Cause other makeup items aren't too hard to find, since if your skin is looking great, almost anything looks good. And in order to make our skin look great, we need a good foundation to give a light radiant glow and cover up any spots. To be honest, I think I kind of have found my favorite drugstore foundation. Maybe I'll soon find out of a better one, but as of yet this foundation is my absolute favorite! I know a lot of people love the Revlon Colorstay Foundation , I like it a lot too. But I just think it's a little too heavy for a daily basis. Whereas this one on the other hand is great. Anyway, getting to the review..
First of all it's packaging is slightly bulky. 'Cause it's a liquid-cream foundation, the sponge applicator is in a separate compartment than the foundation. That kind of adds to the bulkiness. Also, the foundation is enclosed in a thick glass packaging, I think the product is less as compared to how bulky it is. But that's not too much of a problem to me honestly.

Max Factor Miracle Touch Liquid Illusion Foundation (Shade Cream Ivory 40)

It holds about 11.5g/0.4 Oz which is less than a standard foundation. But I don't really mind that cause it's really light and a little goes a long way, you need to use the slightest amount to cover your face properly. As far as fragrance is concerned it doesn't have any, which is great for the ones who are sensitive to smells in makeup items.

Sorry about how it looks, it kind of melted due to the heat here. 
The shade cream ivory (40) is lightest shade out of 9 shades. I'm not too sure about the other shades, but I selected this one online and it's a perfect match for my skin tone. I don't think it's too cool or warm undertoned, it's neutrally undertoned. It's available at Boots and the official Max Factor website for £ 12.99.

I haven't really read the ingredients in it, but I am guessing it's silicone based because of how smoothly it glides on the skin. Unlike Revlon Colorstay it doesn't feel heavy at all on my skin and I think it does a good job at covering spots and giving an air brushed finish. It lasts quite a fair long time as well, about 7-8 hours without touch-ups.
Overall verdict, I really love this foundation. I think it's great for daily use, especially cause it feels very light on skin and gives a very natural slightly dewy finish. Also, it's wear times is great and it isn't too drying or too oily. I'm not too sure about the shade selection though , maybe that's not too great. But it's a great product and I'll definitely repurchase.
Hope the review was helpful! Please comment for questions or suggestions. :)
