DESCRIPTION (TAKEN FROM SEPHORA.COM):

An oil-free, skin-smoothing liquid foundation that provides the illusion of airbrushed skin in seconds.

Created with advanced Light Refraction Technology, this weightless foundation visibly reduces the appearance of pores and fine lines by diffusing and reflecting light. Bio Transformed Botanicals soften and relax the appearance of facial lines and wrinkles, while Real Skin Technology allows for close-up perfection.

THE VERDICT:

I like natural- finish foundation products. I wanted to buy another bottle of my HG foundation, Bobbi Brown's Skin Foundation, but decided to try another one. After thoroughly researching over the net, I decided to get Too Faced's Amazing Liquid Foundation. It garnered high ratings in makeupalley, and is a great foundation for warm conditions according to some beauty blogs.

The skin benefits. I like the fact that this is infused with minerals that fix your skin during wear. Apart from being a make- up, it's also a skin care product!

What it's made of.

Here's the bottle. It looks fabulous and will definitely adorn my dresser. The bottle is made of ornate screw- top glass that resembles the lavish perfume flacons of the past.

Unfortunately, this doesn't have a pump dispenser that can be bought individually from Too Faced.

Warm honey is a golden honey shade with a strong yellow undertone. The undertone makes this shade blend well with my natural tone.

Consistency is a tad runny because it is water- based. Coverage is light- medium. It dries quickly, and it covers your skin like a pro sans the thick and heavy look and feel. It also has a light caramel scent.

Here's my face without anything on.

Here's my left cheek with the foundation. Even if the coverage is light, it perfectly concealed my nasty pimple marks!

Undetectable coverage, as promised. Can you even tell that I'm wearing foundation here???

Here's the foundation when finally set with powder. It covered my minor blemishes and tamed down some of the red marks while providing a very natural- looking finish. The light refraction technology works by diffusing light for a soft, matte look.

Regarding staying power, this one does not oxidize during wear. It stays put, and doesn't run, streak, nor cake due to the ultra light coverage. Since it's oil- free, it's best for people with oily skin. True enough, this is best worn during humid or warm weather conditions because it is lightweight. However, I did see some oil on my T-Zone after 3- 4 hours. But nevertheless, it still keeps your skin covered until the end of the day. Just don't forget to pat the oily parts with powder.

Women who are in their 30's and above, or anyone who has wrinkles can benefit from this foundation because it has wrinkle- fighting ingredients.

Unfortunately, this is unavailable locally. To those interested, I suggest you do a thorough research on what shade will fit you by reading blogs and looking at swatches so you'll have accurate reference. I would buy this again, unless I find another foundation that's worth trying. But overall, this is a great buy! Totally worth $20!

Denver says "bleh" to all my readers. :D
