Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation in 52 Vanilla. New Formula

Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation in 52 Vanilla

Edit: Here's a comparison swatches with the original formula 

 I finally got around ordering Bourjois Healthy Mix foundation. From online swatches, they looked super yellow which made me excited. But after I ordered, I learned that these have been repackaged and reformulated (apparently to be less yellow), which sucks for me because I am YELLOW!!! But this is still somewhat yellow. Certainly enough to "work" for me.

It now comes in a glass bottle with red pump. The pump is much appreciated. :)

Now onto foundation itself. I really really like it. On the bottle, it says Radiance revealed, so I was expecting a dewy finish from this. But it looks a natural finish to me and not completely dewy. It gives natural looking medium coverage. It goes on and melds into the skin really well. It's not drying on my skin so less flakes were noticeable than usual. This still wears really well. I wouldn't say it controls oil but it still looks good and doesn't separate despite the oil.

So the color. It's not warm toned yellow. There's definitely a bit of pink in there which is more noticeable in real life than in pictures. But it's still on the warmer side compared to my other foundations. It's yellowy peach in my eyes.

Overall, I am super impressed with this foundation. I wish it was more yellow. I will now have to hunt for the old formula but if you don't need super yellow foundation, I highly recommend this one! :)

  1. Ah, I was waiting for this comparison from a trusted MUBer for a bit. :) I ordered this from eChemist (also in 52) hoping for the older formula and luckily they still had that in stock. You should try ordering from them before they stock the newer formula. Plus, they do free shipping. \o/

    1. :) I couldnt find my shade on echemist so I ended up ordering from ebay. I will look again on echemist! I'll probably buy the second bottle before trying the first one. Lol
