After our highly successful Smashbox campaign, Smashbox products are right at the top of every BB Beauty's #LustHave list. I was so thrilled to be able to try out the new Smashbox Photo Filter Creamy Powder Foundation, as this foundation truly has the X-factor. It contains transparent particles that refract light from your face in different directions, minimising imperfections and giving smooth, true-to-life coverage.
The packaging, as is to be expected from Smashbox products, is sleek and sophisticated yet practical. The box and its clasp are sturdy to prevent broken powder compact accidents in your handbag. The compact includes a mirror and a double-sided sponge, perfect for touch-ups on the go. One side of the sponge is for lighter coverage and the other side is for heavier coverage.
The product itself is luxurious, velvety and ultra-smooth. It glides onto your skin and has the best features of both a cream and a powder foundation. It makes your skin as dewy as a cream foundation, but has the oil-cancelling power of powder.
There’s absolutely no way in which I can fault this product, except that the side of the sponge designed for heavier coverage can make your face look streaky if you don’t take extra care to blend properly. All in all, Smashbox Photo Filter Creamy Powder Foundation is a flawless product completely worthy of its price tag.
