Influenster: Better Skin Foundation

Hello everyone! It's that time again where I review another great box sent to me for free by Influenster. This time I received Maybelline's Superstay Better Skin foundation in 90 Warm Honey.

When I first received the survey for this box I was told I wasn't a match for it and ended up having to do three other surveys for other boxes, in the end I was sent this one. At the end of the survey there was about five different shades, with no labels, to pick from. This foundation has vitamin C and claims to reduce the appearance of spots, dullness and unevenness to give you brighter and more even skin in three weeks of wear.

First Impression:

I honestly didn't think that I would be sent a color that would match my skin. Not only did it match, but it did a better job than my previous foundation, Maybelline Fit Me Matte Poreless. The biggest difference was that this foundation has a pump, which my old foundation did not. A pump helps you control how much foundation you need. 

Left: Better skin. Right: Matte Poreless

Looking at the two foundations they look nearly identical. The Matte Poreless dries completely matte, almost instantly, is full coverage and becomes darker and orange when fully set. Better Skin is not as matte, medium to full coverage and dries true to color. 

Wear:

With my oily face, I can wear this foundation a good seven and a half hours without shine. It instantly became my favorite because I can chose which type of coverage I want. It's slightly moisturizing, but it does cling on to my dry patches. 

Skin Improvement:

Unfortunately, I forgot to take pictures of the most important part, but I believe it did work for my skin. I had a dark patch on my left cheek, it looked like I always had heavy contouring on that side, and some small dark spots on the right. Now when I do my makeup I've realized I don't have to do as much color correcting as I did before, because they aren't as dark. 

I do plan on purchasing this foundation once I'm finished with it because it has been the best drugstore foundation I have used.
