ETTUSAIS FOUNDATION

Touch your face now, is your T-zone oily? I bet it is.

I have dry skin, and yet my T-zone gets shiny towards the end of the day.

But... No more shiny T-zone, No more visible pores with this NEW FOUNDATIONNNNNNNNNN!!!!

It's the ettusais Duo and in a pretty pink limited edition case!!
(SGD $48/Refill & SGD$20/case)
(For a limited period: SGD$56 for both the refill & limited edition case)

ettusais Duo is a combination foundation. The lighter part is the shine prevention powder and the darker part is the pore covering powder. It comes in 5 shades. I'm using 30Beige.

Here it is in my make up bag which I took to Hungary with me. It has everything I want in a foundation. It eliminates shine from excess sebum, conceals pores and blemishes, it evens out my skin tone and protects my skin with SPF16PA++

I had a photoshoot in Budapest, and as usual... I was running late. I turned the room into a big mess rushing to get ready! My BF had a nap while waiting for me. LoL.

Thank goodness it only took minutes to put my face on! :)

Here's how I did it:
Step 1: Base Version Up UV (SGD$41)
This is my skincare and a make up base rolled into one. I apply a thin layer over my skin, spreading lightly with my fingers. It covers freckles and blemishes well. It's ok to use it on the eye area too.

(p/s- On some days, I skip foundation altogether. Even on its own, it gives my skin a healthy glow because it contains Flash Powder. )

Step 2: I use the shine prevention powder (lighter part) of the Duo foundation on my T-zone. Only a very thin layer is enough, it will work its magic, there's no need to cake it on. I tend to have greasy eyelids usually, so I pat a little of this onto my eyelids. ( Doubles up as a great base for my eyeshadows!!)

Basically you can use this on anywhere which tends to get oily, not just your T-zone. It has no colour or pigment.

Step 3: I use the pore covering powder (darker part of the Duo cake) on my entire face. I start applying on my T-zone and cheek area and gently spread it out towards the forehead and jawline.

With conventional powders, pores are visible because it just plugs up pores but you will still be able to see that your skin is uneven. The pore covering powder hides visible pores because it has a light scatering effect. This means that no shadow will be casted within the pore, and hence this gives the appearance of smoother and softer skin.

It took us more than an hour to get to the capital (where the photo studio is).

When I got to the dressing room and unpacked my stuff (messy as usual), I was delighted to find that my foundation was still matt and the coverage was still so flawless!

A hint of blusher and gloss on my lips, and I was ready for the shoot.

We even had some shots done outdoors under natural light outdoors...

I love how this foundation can keep my skin looking smooth for hours and hours. It's lightweight, yet gives enough coverage for a photoshoot! The colour pigments of this foundation doesn't change, it prevents shine, minimizes pores and keeps skin looking smooth.

Make up looks flawless for hours, no problem!
