Clinique Beyond Perfecting Foundation and Concealer

I'm going to have a moment of silence for this foundation. Have mercy on me because I just died and went to make-up heaven. I've been searching for a full courage foundation for the longest time. Now the foundation I was looking for needed to work with my problematic skin, meaning I was looking for something my skin wouldn't react to. Another moment of silence please for the Clinique Beyond Perfecting foundation and concealer. 

The story goes like this, I went to a Clinique counter looking for a full coverage foundation that my skin would be happy with, something that wouldn't make me look like I had applied a second skin to my face, something that wouldn't make me look caky. I kindly asked the consultant for a full courage foundation. She pointed out this particular Beyond Perfecting foundation and concealer. As I had used some of the Clinique foundations before  (Even Better, Stay Matt and the Anti-blemish), I decided it wouldn't hurt to try this puppy. So I told her my foundation shade for all my other Clinique foundations is Amber or Fresh amber.
And it was no surprise that the Beyond Perfecting foundation and concealer had my Amber shade. She asked me to take a sample just to test it out for a while. 

I watched her pour the foundation into a little sample container and my first thought was "this foundation looks too dark for my skin tone". She quickly assured me not to worry as it would blend in with my skin tone. Not at all convinced about what she had said, I took my sample home with me.

The next day I decided to try this foundation for myself. So I dapped a few a few drops into my foundation brush and started applying to my face. Another moment of silence please (heaveeen). This foundation blended like no other, it moisturized my skin and left me looking like a million bucks (if I do say so myself). It's the full courage I've always wanted and it's a concealer at the same time, no need to powder a million times throughout the day. This foundation is more that what I had expected. It's a 2 in 1 (foundation and concealer), so trust me when I say - out went my concealers. This particular foundation get a perfect 10 from me. Foundation heaven I tell you. 

Try it and I promise you won't be disappointed.

Enjoy my beauties.
