How Well Does ColourPop Pretty Fresh Foundation Hold Up?

I sent my mother one of the makeup pieces I had received. She got to try it out and let me know how well it worked for her. Her skills with makeup are way more refined than mine. 

*This product was sent to me for free in exchange for reviewing. All opinions are mine or my mother's. I was not otherwise paid or endorsed.* 

This is ColourPop Pretty Fresh Foundation. There are 3 Skin Undertones and then you choose your color from there.  

Robin said it was very light weight on the coverage. It doesn't have an overbearing scent either, which is great for those who are smell-sensitive. At first, she was worried that the light weight wouldn't cover the redness, but as you can see in the pictures - it worked just fine. The color matched her skin tone perfectly! 

Where can you find it? 

Target has them. You can find it on their website HERE.  

Or you can get it from Ulta HERE.  

Go to the source on the ColourPop website!  

I found it at other places too, so don't think these are your only options. I just didn't think I should overload the post. I think overall, this works well. There are so many options, that it would be difficult not to find one to match your skin tone. A helpful foundation for staying glamorous!

Star Looks review and promotion information

Mother's Day is drawing near. Less than 2 weeks left to find that perfect gift. I found a great cosmetics gift idea. The StarLooks beauty box.
It's a monthly subscription box that will mail a box of cosmetic goodies for her to try out before purchasing items from online.
Each box contains 3-4 full sized products and you only pay a flat rate of $15 per month.
You can get 1 subscriptions for yourself or for someone else as a gift. StarLooks sent me the April Star Box to try out. April was a "Neutral" theme with products for all skin tones, retailing $50. It contained Tendergloss Lipstick (retail $11), "Mint" SPF Lip Balm (retail $5), "Translucent/Nude" Mineralized Powder (retail $19), and Sensation Mascara Primer (retail $15).
The mineralized powder was great! It matched my skin and looked natural unlike most foundations that can look caked on. It didn't cause any itchy feelings or irritate my face either. Really does great at keeping that "shiny" look your face gets when it's oily, away. It wasn't a powdery feeling like my old foundation. My nose wasn't twitching all day (like it normally does). This was my absolute favorite!
The mascara primer is a bit odd for me. It is supposed to protect and moisturize your lashes. I wasn't really into that. I had little pieces of white in my lashes at first. It did, however, make a difference in my lashes. They looked fuller.
The Lip Balm, I like. It has SPF in it. Living in sunny Florida we need the extra protection. It is really smooth and feels refreshing on my lips. I love the smell also.
The Tendergloss Lipstick gives your lips a fuller, glossy look. This is amazing! Makes my lips feel moisturized but doesn't have that sticky feeling that you get with most glosses and lipsticks.
I decided to show you a full look, so below is a glimpse of what these fine products have to offer!
So what else is there to know about StarLooks? Let's say you do buy a month subscription box. Perhaps there is something that you fall in love with. You can then go online to see all their products and make a purchase based on what you have tried and know for sure you love! Just that easy. Star Looks products are cruelty free. They do not test their products on animals. They are also lead and emollient free. Why else should you be interested in their products?
  • FREE shipping on all Domestic orders under 10 pounds!
  • Starlooks has a generous Points Program: 1 point for every dollar you spend in their online store.
  • They have a large selection of pro-quality make-up to choose from.
And here's another reason, they have a Special Offer going on if you refer your friends - you can get up to 3 months of free shipping. Refer a friend and have them use the phrase "give it back to" with your name in there on the referral section on the checkout page. Then you get a refund for 1 months shipping up to 3 new subscribers! So let's say you guys decide to buy based on reading my review... When you get to the checkout, find the referral box, enter "give back to Emily Vinyard". Then when you get friends who start asking how you look so amazing, refer them and have them do the same for you! Make the world a little more beautiful with a lot more happy women ;-)
Leave me a comment and tell me what you think! Also happy Mother's Day shopping!
