Max Factor – Age Renew Foundation

When it comes to foundation I usually wear my trusty M.A.C foundation but it can be a bugger to get your hands on in an emergency. It was my own fault for leaving it to late to go and buy some and I didn’t have time to go Selfridges so went to Boots and for a change bought Max Factor Age Renew Foundation.

OK, I am only in my twenties and this is probably for the older generation but I just wanted to try it out, nothing is wrong with wanting to feel more youthful but I was really disappointed. I don’t know if it is because I suffer from oily skin but I feel like I am wearing a mask and within 30 mins of wearing this foundation all I want to do is wash my face. It really does not agree with oily skin and makes it 10 times more oilier.

It was surprised by this as I have used Max Factor foundation in the past and been happy with the results but I would definitely not recommend this foundation for anyone who suffers from oily skin like me. I am going to give it to my friend who has dry skin and see if she thinks it works for her but I doubt it as it feels like you are putting paste onto your face.
