Hello readers today I am going to
review the Iman stick to none foundation which is the 4th long lasting foundation I am reviewing this
summer. You can find the reviews on the previous ones bellow.
1- Lancôme teint Idole ultra 24 h foundation HERE
2- blackUp matifying fluid foundation HERE
3- BOBBI BROWN long wear even finish compact foundation HERE
The packaging
The packaging looks like a sleek and
simple black tube with a gold touch. You just have to turn the bottom part for
the stick foundation to come out. The packaging is very easy to carry around,
easy to use, very practical except that you have to be very careful to not have
too much of the stick coming out at once otherwise you may break it. That is
what happened to me with the first tube I bought. Another downfall to this
product is that it does not last long enough in my opinion.
The product
Iman is specialized on tan/dark skin
tone so you should find your match whether you have Indian, Latinos or African
skin tone. As for the African skin tone I feel that the colors are great; not
too red not too yellow not too neutral. But as my skin is a mix of undertones I
like to use 2 colors. Earth 2 which has some yellow undertone and earth 3 which
has some red undertone.This foundation does not contain perfume, alcohol denat
or oils and it targets oily to combination skin. I have used it for months
already and it never broke me out.
This foundation is a hard stick that
applies easily on the skin. I like to apply a few strokes on my face and then
blend everything with my fingers. The result is a light to medium coverage that
is matte to semi-matte and looks very natural. After several hours the finish
may look more like a satin finish depending on your skin type. You may not need
to powder as the foundation itself controls the oil production very well. It
does not transfer, it last all day and gives a very beautiful finish.

Will I repurchase???
YES YES and YES !!!!! This
foundation is one of the best I have tried in such a long time. I have used it
during my last trips abroad in hot and humid countries and it did not disappoint
me. The only complain I may have is that it does not last long enough in my
opinion but at the same time it is cheaper than most other foundations I have
tried and many of them were not that good. So yes I will definitely repurchase actually
it’s already done.
