 THE VERDICT:

A lot have been asking me to review this much anticipated Fit Me collection by Maybelline so here ya go. Here's what I really think about it.


WHAT IS IT?

Fit Me, a best- selling foundation collection by Maybelline in the US has just hit our shores. It features a powder, concealer, and two foundations, and claims to stay put the whole day while controlling oil. Great for normal to oily skin types.

The concealer has a medium- sized doe foot applicator and I love how big the tube is. The powder, though affordable, doesn't look as such and I appreciate the extra compartment for my sponge. The liquid foundation comes in a glass bottle (which I wish came with a pump) and the stick foundation has a hydrating center, which I also think is an extra foundation that helps fix the main one.

One great thing about this collection is there are a whole bunch of shades and yes, there are ample shades for morena skin tone.

HOW IS IT? WHAT DOES IT LOOK LIKE?

I really like this concealer because it's light, really easy to blend, and has medium coverage; It minimized the look of my dark circle, plus it stays the whole day without creasing and caking. I like how lightweight it is yet provides good coverage. If L.A. Girl Pro Conceal HD Concealer is out of stock, this is a good alternative.

My shade is Medium 25, a medium light beige with yellow undertone.

Consistency is a light cream that is spreadable and leaves no streaks; works well either with a sponge or brush. It has medium coverage and sets into a semi- matte finish. I didn't use corrector to cover my marks here because this is pretty good coverage.

Sun Beige 301 is my match in this product; 

I was actually looking forward to the foundation stick, but I got a shade that's good enough for contouring. I was advised that for Sun Beige ladies, best match with the stick foundation is Toffee. Wrong. It's dark. Best shade would be Natural Beige, although it is fairly light; just fix it with a shade- matching powder.

The stick foundation has medium to full coverage and dries into a semi- matte finish. No need for a corrector with this one also because it has good concealing properties.

Products set with Fit Me powder

The powder is my second favorite; it provides medium coverage and improves the coverage of your entire base even more; on its own, it has good oil controlling properties at 3-4 hours before retouching. I like how it provides a smoothing effect as well.

So how does it hold up on oily skin?

First off, I like the coverage of the products: they're great and impressive for an affordable range so I recommend it to those with blemished, pigmented skin. Finally, I commend its wide array of shades; finally, morenas can have a lot to choose from.

As for the oil control claim, unfortunately, the foundation left my face slick and oily after 5 hours of wear; when I checked the mirror, my face was so shiny. :/ Also, I noticed that the foundation tends to oxidize so it's best to choose a shade lighter if you want a brighter look or if you want to unify your facial skin with the rest of your body, then go for your exact shade match.

My verdict? Fit Me is okay if you have semi- oily skin; didn't exactly fit my idea of a great foundation for oily skin, but maybe wearing a primer underneath can help. Between this and L'Oreal Infallible Matte, I'd choose the latter. Btw, you want a foundation showdown between the two?
