I love wearing Indian ethnic wear on special occasions or festivals. A Saree is one of my favourite ethnic attire to wear during Puja or family get-togethers. Again in sarees, I have a soft corner for handloom sarees. The beauty and feel of these handwoven slow crafted sarees are truly mesmerizing. It was Durga Puja time and Diwali is also approaching in few days, hence I thought to buy a beautiful handloom saree to celebrate all these festivals with extra joy. Huts and Looms Tissue Silk Saree In case you are wondering what a handloom saree is, then let me tell you in brief. Handlooms are basically handwoven fabrics made on a weaving machine called a loom. Hence, the name comes from HandLoom. It is a slow-crafted process, as it needs the utmost patience, creativity, and physical strength to create a masterpiece. Handloom sarees are generally priced because of this reason. I feel every woman looks graceful, powerful and amazing in a saree. Handloom sarees are representing our cultur
Today I am going to share my opinion on Nelf USA HD 24h stay foundation which I had received in one of my fab bag earlier this year. Till now I have used this lot of times and I am very particular with my point of view on it. So let's start,
Price - Rs 800/- for 30ml.
Available - this is a big issue .
Shades - There are only 3 shades available which is again a concern. I got the shade natural and it is a nearly-perfect match for my skin tone.
Packaging -
The foundation comes inside a regular glass bottle packaging with a pump dispenser. The pump dispenser makes it very easy to use and allow the right quantity of products each time. So there is no excessive product wastage. The glass packaging is a little bulky and not travel-friendly. There are information regarding the product on the bottle itself.
My Experience -
I got the shade Natural for me which is a warm tone shade. I prefer warm tone makeup stuffs for my skin tone and I feel they suit my complexion well. The texture of the foundation is perfect to apply .It is not runny nor very thick. It blends properly on skin without much effort.
I need maximum two pumps to cover my face and neck. As it is a HD foundation, the coverage is obviously on the higher side. It gives sheer to medium coverage which is again can buildable. The foundation photographs really well. I love this for that. It doesn't hide the undereye dark circles fully, you will definitely need a concealer for that but it can hide the light blemishes or spots. I can say, this is a good foundation for daily wear purpose (if you are doing makeup on daily basis). It will not look over done kind after applying.
It stays on my skin around 6-7 hours and started fading slowly. It gives a nice dewy coverage everytime which looks very natural. The only thing, there are only three shades and one can't find a perfect shade. That's the biggest drawback I can say.. The brand should add more shades to the range.
Let's summarise. .
Pros.. -
1- Pump dispenser packaging makes it easy to use
2- Gives good sheer to medium coverage
3- Photographs well
4- Comes under budget
5- Stays for around 6-7 hours
6 - Hides marks and blemishes properly
7 - Blends well in skin and not feels heavy.
8- Has SPF 15
Cons. . -
1 - Availability
2 - Limited shade range
3 - Bulky glass packaging
Rating - 3.8/5
Final Verdict - The nelf USA HD foundation is a good foundation though there is only three shades to choose from. I love the coverage, texture and quality. It is good for wearing daily and it seems very natural in skin. A good purchase.. 😊
Hope you found this review helpful. See you in another exciting post,till then stay happy..

ReplyDeleteThe one thing i look for in my foundations is a pump dispenser and I am happy that this one has that. Limited shade options is the most common issue we come across. I wish brands start thinking seriously about it.
