Did Not Settle into My Marionette Ravines
By HappyDog on Reviewed in the United States on July 12, 2025
I don’t wear foundation often, but that’s partly because every foundation I’ve tried for the past five years settled into my “much more than fine” lines. (Think the marionette lines on an actual marionette.) This one did not. Did NOT! Granted, I’ve had it for only a few days, but today I put it on and ran out the door into a wall of humidity, then walked three miles at the gym. Came home, checked the mirror and no settling. None. For what it’s worth, I have oily skin despite being almost as old as dirt and always wear Rimmell Stay Matte primer whether I’m wearing foundation or not. I do think the primer helped, but trust me, no settling into my marionette ravines was kind of a miracle. The coverage is light, but that works for me. All things considered, I’m very pleased.

Inconsistent Blend - DOES settle in Wrinkles/Lines
By Lauren C. on Reviewed in the United States on June 29, 2024
I have been using this product for over a year now.. I’ll admit that despite my lower rating and the issues I’ll explain, I’ll probably continue using the product until i can find a better option. To explain further.. My biggest issue is that the consistency of this product is VERY unpredictable.. I provided a picture of an example.. the two products in the picture are the exact same product.. baked & brighten foundation in color: fair.. the product on the right is the what i was replacing and the product on the left is what i was sent. Again this is the EXACT SAME PRODUCT. You can easily see how much lighter the newer product is on the left. The blend is so different and is mainly the lighter shade in the blend. I purchased these products only a month apart. This inconsistency has happens very often.. ..The blend is always inconsistent. This newer shade is too light for me so, this means i had to order ANOTHER in a shade darker to mix the two products to match my skin. That’s expensive, unfair and annoying. I should not have to worry about getting a consistent color. Matching this to your skin is definitely not as easy as they depict. I found matching my skin tone to be really difficult initially and with the inconsistent blend, I continue to have this issue. In addition, this absolutely DOES settle in deeper wrinkles and lines.. it even settles in fine lines. This is better than some other foundations meant for aging skin but, this hardly helps the issue with lines and wrinkles.. especially if you sweat! I am almost 42 yrs old so my lines are faint. This settles in the one wrinkle i have near my nose/lip area. I constantly have to reblend this area. This also easily runs and smudges with even mild perspiration. But, it does give a soft appearance. It helps but does not fully cover redness. It’s easy to apply although it can cake up. It will even out skin tone. It feels fine on although multiple touch ups are required throughout the day. Overall, i only buy this product when it’s on sale or i have a discount. I have a hard time with paying full price since there are so many issues with it (about $37 full price). I feel like there are many better products but, it’s very expensive to keep trying to find the perfect foundation for me. I hope to find a better product but will use this until. I guess i recommend it but, if you suspect there is a better option, maybe try that first.. Thank you for reading my review 💜
