MAYBELLINE SuperStay Vitamin C Skin Tint Serum02A new foundation by Maybelline and one of new serum ones that claim to combine the benefits of a foundation with skin care - it contains a mini amount of Ascorbyl Glucoside, a version of vitamin C. I've been wearing it for the last few days and my first impression was that this is not that nice. I've worn it with different bases, but for my before/after pictures I didn't want to wear any SPF as they affect the finish, so I only used a toner. With an SPF it didn't look great (except the velvety finish Biore) and with a toner I initially thought it looked better, but then I saw the result of before-after pictures. It makes my skin look textured and worse than without foundation. Without it you can see my freckles and that's it, but with it my pores are more visible and lines deeper - it has the "orange skin effect", similar to Catrice's two such liquid foundations. Coverage is on the light side, but it can be easily layered for a light-medium coverage. Finish is unique, as it sets essentially matte on me, but the formula contains extra fine shimmer, so the skin is matte, yet glowy from that highlighter in it. I actually like that, but I think I need to try to find a smoothing primer that will work with this formula and prevent it from making the skin so textured. Matte + Poreless is considerably better than this one precisely because it manages to smooth the skin. Shade 02 is not a brilliant match like their Dream ...
