Maybelline New York Fit Me Matte + Poreless Foundation, Rich Tan

Comment

I decided to give foundation another shot after only using concealer for a while and decided to try matte + poreless but it was quite an ordeal finding a shade match. I have pink undrtones in my face and part of my neck and chest and Im not by quite pale but nowhere near the fairest skin tone. Looking at your shades online and in store shade 122 looked like a good match but nope too dark, so I go a shade down to 120 and still too dark, I condidered trying 118 but it looked way too yellow so I went with 115 and was pretty sure I had my match but I came home, tried it on and my boyfriend said my face looked red, like a mask, not my skin tone at all... So after 3 returns and almost giving up it was between 110 and 112, I knew 110 was way too pale and also yellow toned so I decided on 112 hoping it was the one but not being at all optimistic at this point. So I went home, actually put some on in the car on the way, got home and fixed it with my trusty flat top brush and grabbed my boyfriend to go outside and see me in natural light. And finally! He said "That one looks really good, it actually looks like your skin, not a mask like the other ones. All the others you tried made you look older or red." Your shade finder was no help BTW, as it suggested 115. But Im happy I dont have to go back to return another shade. The finish is great too and it feels like nothing on my skin, also no delectable smell while Im wearing it which is a huge plus for me, and the coverage lasts a pretty long time. :) I added a couple of puctures.

I am extremely pale and have weird, like, yellow undertones? and the problem I always find with drugstore foundations is that the lighter you get, the pinker you get. I use the next-to-lightest shade and it matches me PERFECTLY, and its the first time in ANY foundation that I dont wear the lightest shade! It smells kinda like craft paint but honestly the coverage is really good for a drugstore brand, it holds up well, and you absolutely will not beat the quality for the price. DEFINITELY TRY IT

After years of searching for a foundation that matches my neck even after oxidation, the Fit Me 110 Porcelain is a winner. I have tried the palest color offered from so many drugstore brands and every one of them ends up finishing too dark/pink for my face. I started to think no one made anything for my skin color. Id say Im satisfied with how it handles my oil. It definitely does come through so its not absolutely matte but I dont look like an oil slick either. I agree the coverage is medium as described (the Infallible has great coverage but its too drying and pools up in my pores). I think realistically this is as good as it gets for this price range. I am also thrilled with the Translucent Fit Me pressed powder. Now I wish I had tried the foundation a long time ago. (I dont recommend the Porcelain powder if you use the 110 Porcelain foundation, its actually too dark for me). Now I can (not) shine in all my pale glory... See more

I was loving this foundation only to find that it oxidized about 3 shades darker than when it first went on my skin. I used shade 128 which is a light yellowy undertone shade & it came out to be almost red.

I dont normally switch foundations, however, I decided to try Maybelline Fit because I was impressed with the selection of shades. Then, once I tried it and felt how lightweight and smooth the foundation was...I fell in love.
