[Review] Jill Stuart Smooth Silk Liquid Foundation #204 Sand

Hello, Lovely! ♥ ♥ 

I am so damn tired of assignments. Feels like I am so lifeless ... SO MANY THINGS I HAVE TO DO T_____T
So sad .. Well, I'm not talking about those things here. ROFL. I wanna make another review.

I have promised that I will make this review  on Instagram. This foundation is also quite good but it's not my HG foundation. Wanna know more? Let's check!

Sorry, I don't understand that Japanese at all T___T

As written on its box:

Liquid Foundation with a refreshing feel and long-lasting coverage. Hides pore and imperfections for semi-matte, silk chiffon-like complexion.

Yey, it has a pump *o*. Former JS Liquid Foundation doesn't have pump :/

FYI, It's so easy to control !!

Then this is what Jill Stuart Beauty tell on its website:
Product features:

･A light, fluid texture, created using our new Extramil production method. Enjoy a smooth and complete foundation that blends seamlessly into your skin with a veil-like sensation.
･The action of two types of silicone polymer naturally covers pores and patches of uneven skin, bringing you a feeling of fine, bright, semi-matte beauty. Protects against shiny skin or dullness that can be caused by sweat and lipids, maintaining a long-lasting, highly translucent and wonderfully clear finish.
･Sold in an easy-to-use dispenser. A striking design with a cap that produces glittering flashes of light.
･SPF20/PA＋＋
･A combination of amino-acid and mineral powders. Gently blends with your skin, for easy, straightforward use.
･Contains Pure Crystal Powder.
･Crystal floral bouquet fragrance.
Beauty Essences:
･Almond oil（Emollient）
･Wild rose extract（Moisturizer）- Jill Stuart Beauty Official Website

Whooaaah *o* Soft pink color with princess-ey style. Well, I'm not that girly and I don't really like Pink. However, I purchased it because of the bottle LOL! The bottle looks very cute and also have luxurious 'look'. Feels like I'm using the Royal product LOL. Moreover, it has semi-matte coverage. I need this kind of foundation when I really want to achieve more 'smooth skin' look. I take 204 Sand as my shade and you can see it on my hands.

The shades on my hand:

And I wanna cry because 204 is more 'reddish ocher' one. I think I should take 103 or 105(If i'm getting tanned). They are more ocher one!! AIYA, wrong shade T___T
I can manage it well when I set my finishing powder but ... GOSH!

Staying Power:
It has a good staying power, just like my Chanel Perfection Lumiere one. Good!

Oxidation Level:
Also very low for both of them. However, I feel my JS has no oil control. So, it can be melted easily when I'm on outdoor and the sun is trying to burn me XD

My tests:
1. No Base Make Up
It stays for 4 until 5 hours and if I'm on outdoor, it just stays for 2.5 hours ... -__-

2. With Base Make up
Stays for 6 hours as I tried it on 3 base make ups. All of them are working well for this foundation (Laura Mercier Foundation Primer, Love&Peace Base Make Up and Banila Co. Prime Classic). Banila Co. one suits it the best, however!

Quite smooth, right? XD

And it comes into a rating section!
♥♥♥ Shade (3/5)
I wish it's more neutral, perhaps lil bit yellowish one. I think it can be lil bit pinkish when I apply it more than a layer. And yes, this foundation looks so yellow on my photos. I avoid the pinkish finish, indeed. I think I am getting 'too much' make up when it comes into pinkish tone.
♥♥♥ Texture (5/5)
It glides perfectly, easy to blend. So runny. However, you have to apply it fast! It dries fast. It blends well when I apply it by Foundation Brush. It feels like my second skin HAHA.
♥♥♥ Coverage (3.5/5)
Medium coverage like my other foundation. I think this coverage is lesser than my Perfection Lumiere one because of its finishing look. Perfection Lumiere's coverage is a lil bit better than this one.
♥♥♥ Smell (4/5)
The smell is much better than my Perfection Lumiere's one. Not too strong and it feels flowery. If you are not fragrance allergy, you can use it well. o(^__^)o 
♥♥♥ Finish Look (4/5)
This is what I need! I need to complete my 'perfectionist' make up things and it can complete my temptation ROFL. I mean, I can find other foundation beside Perfection Lumiere.

I got this from Miaw Lens for Rp. 685.000 (USD 67). Miaw Lens sell the authentic Japanese products and this foundation is directly imported by her. It's soooo pricey because I also bought it when it has a very high inflation rate into Rupiah (Indonesian Currency). SOOOO SAD T___T

So this is one of my very lovely foundation. But yeah, too expensive. I think I will try RMK or GA one later. I have to save my money for new gadget!!

I can't ask my parents to buy it for me again. I'm too afraid of rejection T__T So, I stop buying make up for a while.

Do you like this foundation like I do? This will be a very good item to purchase :) I think I will repurchase someday and I will purchase 103 for sure :p

and Thanks for reading, Lovely! ♥♥
