So tonight will be about my first impression review about the San San HD Foundation in the shade Natural. I've also had this for quite some time now but never opened it in its packaging yet since I wanted to do a first impression review on this one first before actually using it. So let's get to it. :)
I actually also bought this in the HBC Store in Alabang beside South Station I bought my other San San products including the San San BB Cream (review can be read here) and as well as the San San Blush in Sweet Glow which I also made a review which you can check out here. Like I've said in my previous posts, there are no HBC branches or stores near the place that I live so whenever there is one I see, I immediately go and hoard HBC makeup products particularly San San makeup products. :)
Price: Php 205.00
Net Wt. 1.01 fl. oz/ 25mL
Its Claims:
- Has Vitamins A, C and E and SPF 30 for a healthier and naturally radiant skin
- Excellent coverage for skin imperfections
- Oil Free liquid foundation. Blends superbly with any color cosmetics for a picture-perfect look.
Caution:
Do not stay too long under the sun, even while using this product with sunscreen. Keep out of reach of children. For external use only.
Ingredients:
With the packaging, I find it cute since it is in my favorite color which is purple. The box is purple as well and the writings on it are silver. The bottle of the foundation itself is also made of glass with a metallic purple cover. Once you open the cap, the bottle has a pump so that you can control the amount of product you will be using.
First, the consistency, if you will look at the photo below, it does have a yellow undertone and has thick consistency which I like.
Okay, so to test the quality and as well as the longevity of this product, I applied it on my clean face. I don't have anything on. I just washed my face with my Celeteque Exfoliating Facial Scrub then applied my Celeteque Facial Moisturizer. I didn't apply any primer as I wanted to see the longevity of this product as is. So at exactly 04:13pm today, I applied this foundation on my face.
So if you notice, it has a medium- thick coverage since for only one layer of the product, it was already able to cover the visible veins in my cheeks. I also noticed that it gives a matte finish which I really like. What I noticed though when I was applying the product on my face, it dries like their BB Cream. So you already have to be fast in applying this all over your face to get an even coverage.
This is how it looks like after I put on my makeup and also applied a setting powder to set the foundation on my face.
I was just at home today but nevertheless I did a lot of things so I did some activities, making me perspire a little. After almost 5 hours of having this foundation on and without any retouching done, this is now how it looks like:
09:03pm MNL time:
Upon touching my face and if you will notice on the photo above, my face is already shiny and my T-zone is already oily. What I like though is that it's not that oily compared to how it usually is.
What I like:
- Very affordable, only Php 205.00 only.
- Has thick consistency and has a yellow undertone to it.
- Has medium to heavy coverage.
- Gives out a matte finish
- I find the packaging both the box and the bottle itself cute since it's in my favorite color. :)
- It has a pump so you can control the amount of product that you will be using.
- Though coverage is very good, it still feels lightweight on the face.
- Once you check the back of the box, it has all the info you will be needing like its claims, ingredients, manufacturing date, expiry date, location of manufacturing.
What I don't like:
- Easily dries out so you have to be fast in blending this all over your face to get an even coverage.
I think with this product, the matte finish it gives will actually last longer with a primer.
REPURCHASE: YES!!
Aside from the fact that it is very affordable, I love that it can give out medium to heavy coverage in only one layer of application of the product to the face. It does have thick consistency and gives out a matte finish. Though I really think the matte finish it gives out will last longer with primer.
Keep in mind though that we all have different skin types, so this product may work better with others than it worked for me or may not work with others well as it worked for me. Keep in mind to know your skin type first so as it will be easier and the effectivity of the product you will be purchasing will work well for you. :)
