Ready for my close-up..., 13 Dec. 2012

My skin is very dry so I mainly use a BB cream rather then foundation, but my skin rebels at this time of year so I need something with better coverage for work and parties. I came across Leichner CAMERA CLEAR foundation whilst browsing for a suitable foundation. I remember coming across it before and being tempted, but not getting it because trying to colour match it is a shot in the dark. However as it is so cheap I decided to just order the lightest shade [porcelain] and hope for the best.

When it arrived I was disappointed, as whilst the shade is nice and neutral, it looks a bit darker then what the shade name would suggest. However the creamy formula is so light and silky to apply, that blending it into the skin for a better colour match is easy. Once blended, the results are a smooth satin finish, with medium coverage (it can provide fuller coverage with layering).

I swear by it!, 7 Sept. 2013

I love Leichner foundation - over the years I've tried foundations from many brands, many different formats, and many different price ranges, but I always go back to Leichner. It gives great coverage, and doesn't dry the skin out. I do find however, with my combination skin, I need to carry powder or blotting paper to keep shine at bay.If you are thinking of buying, be prepared for a thick formula. This is not one of those 'barely there' foundations, you will be able to feel it on the skin. My first experience with it was actually from my nan's make up kit! She swore by it all her life, but it should be clear from that story that we're not talking about the most modern formula here. If you like vintage style make-up, with a powder finish, you won't find a better foundation. If you like the modern, natural look, Leichner probably won't be for you.
