BOURJOIS HEALTHY MIX FOUNDATION

Tuesday, 7 January 2014


I want to share with you a product I've been loving right now. After my favourite foundation was discontinued I turned to Rimmel's Wake Me Up foundation. I liked it at first but soon it was obvious that it didn't agree with my skin as I suffered from breakouts. This is where Bourjois' Healthy Mix Foundation came in!


Light Vanilla
Blended in
I went for the shade Light Vanilla, which is the lightest shade this foundation comes in. I'd heard great things about the Healthy Mix range so I wanted to give this a go. It was mostly the fruit therapy formula that drew me in - anything fruity must be healthy right?! The Boots website informs me that it contains 'Apricot for radiance, Melon for hydration and Apple to protect your youth.'

The smell is a little weird, I must admit! At first I couldn't quite figure out if I liked it but I'm sticking with it because it provides such great coverage. Unlike Rimmel's Wake Me Up foundation, the Healthy Mix foundation is radiant without being glittery and provides excellent coverage without being too cakey. Whilst I might venture back to Rimmel, Bourjois has stolen the crown as my favourite foundation right now. At £9.99 it's not cheap but you'll know it's worth the money upon its first application. 

What do you think about Bourjois' Healthy Mix range? Let me know in the comments! 

much love, 
Cally

    I've been using this for years and have never ever felt the need to change my foundation. I love the way it smells and the way it never goes powdery of cakey. I'm tempted to see what's out there but for now, since I rarely wear foundation, I'll stick with this :) xxx

      Oh, it's good to see it's someone else's fave! Sadly, my fave foundation was discontinued so I had to find a new one. It's so difficult to find a new one, I'm really picky because I have scars from having acne but this is lovely :) xxx

    I love this foundation, such a great one. I did try the Healthy Mix Serum too which people seem to prefer but this was by far my favourite x

      I've heard great things about the serum but I haven't seen it in stores yet - I'll have to give it a try but I'm loving this for now :) xx

    I love Bourjois products! I use the Healthy Mix concealer I really love it. At the moment I have too many foundations/BB Creams on rotate that I don't think I can try this out ( maybe in the near future!)

    I've been trying out Rimmel's wake me up foundation but it's much too dark for my skin, this looks a lot less orangey in tone and I might have to pick it up and give it a go next time I'm in boots.

    S xo.

      I know exactly what you mean! People rave about it but I do not think it's that good. Definitely too dark and cakey xx
