Mehron Makeup Celebre Pro-HD Cream Face & Body Makeup (.9 oz) (LIGHT 3)

Great coverage without feeling like you have a ton of makeup on. And, it lasts all day!

Best way to use for me, is to use a damp sponge and apply. Coverage depends on what you want, but is better if you use a moisturizer or primer. Which is way better. If you have dry skin this is good for you with a primer or moisturizer, but if you have oily skin, mmmmm, apply lightly. Overall good deal and lasts a long time if you know how to use makeup. This is not a first time trial in doing make-up, you will give negative reviews, which isn't right. Education is needed. Recommended for those who know make-up. 😊💗

This is the second cream foundation I have purchased from Mehrom through Amazon. The first was AMAZING but was a tad too dark for my skin tone (more of my summer shade, when I actually have time for summer activities lol). So this time I went a shade lighter. The shade is perfect but... I'm not AS pleased as the first time around with quality of the makeup. I'm not sure if the formula is different, or perhaps environmental changes are a factor (I bought my first foundation from them in probably September as the months cooled down and the second in May as things began heating up here in the desert which is a testament to how far this stuff goes!!) The first foundation was creamy as the title suggested, and worked well with my combination (both oily and dry in areas) fair skin. I used my fingers to apply it instead of a sponge because I found that it warmed beneath my touch, becoming softer and easier to apply evenly. It didn't make me break out like some heavier cream foundations do, probably because it was so thick that just a little went a long way, and it blended very well so I found I didn't need to wear as much makeup to cover blemishes or even up my skin tone. Definitely a medium to full coverage makeup (can even be used to reduce to appearance of body scars) but can easily be applied with a light touch for the perfect lazy day light makeup look. It was the PERFECT foundation. This second shade I'm currently using is... Okay. The shade it perfect. It perfectly matches my skin tone, if only just a touch too light due to my rosy complexion. I don't mind that much because no shade is ever PERFECT, and a touch too light is more easily remedied than a touch too tan, with a hint of bronzer or just a little blush. (My Palladio wet and dry foundation from Sally's was a little too rudy to use as an every day foundation or powder for me, but with this shade of foundation, a little translucent setting powder, and Palladio as a light blush over my T, I've finally found the perfect combination to compliment my skin tone when I want that perfect, finished look). So the shade is perfect, you're probably wondering why I was less pleased with this foundation than the first. The answer is the consistency and how it applies. While the first was creamy, when I received this one it was "wet" looking, almost as if it has melted in transit. Totally fine, as that could have exactly what happened. I put it in my makeup box and wait for a work day when foundation is necessary. When I opened it a few days later the makeup had set again and looked to be its original consistency, perhaps a little dry and cakey on top. I applied it to my fingers as I did with the previous, by rubbing small circles to warm the makeup with my touch. It thinned to the same "melted" state as when it arrived, my "liquidy" than "creamy". It also applied to my face more like a liquid foundation than a cream, accentuating my dry areas making them flakey and peel and did not provide quite as much easy coverage as before. It was okay, I began exfoliating more and applying a moisturizer and primer before my foundation to prevent the chapped face look. it did the trick, but it was not the amazing, perfect makeup I remembered using up until a couple of days prior. Perhaps it's the same formula and it merely melted in transit and settled in a different state, or perhaps the ingredients are marginally different in this foundation. Whatever the case, I was satisfied with the product keeping in mind that ordering makeup from the Internet does have its downfalls. It's overall a decent medium-full coverage foundation that I will continue to use, at least until I can afford organic makeup lol.

I learnt about Mehron from Wayne Goss videos and for the price I decided to try it out. I have oily skin and I use light foundations or powders to even out my skin tone (without them it gets really spotty and messy by the end of day). Also I need to cover one or two occasional break-outs.My skin tone is very fair (I am always the lightest color in any foundation, except for Russian cosmetics) and I never tan. So I downloaded the color chart from Mehron website -[...] (which I highly recommend doing, because it really helps and shows actual color) and chose Medium 1 (which is very similar to Light 3, but has slightly more warm-brown undertones, while Light pallet is a bit more grayish and cooler) is and it is perfect - just my skin tone.The foundation is 25 gram and you need very little for daily usage. Personally I use it as a concealer and my regular powder over it. I can't believe how well it covers anything from pores to redness and capillaries.The ingredients are (and for those of you who think it is natural, it will be a disappointment, but remember - it is a foundation, not skincare and the ingredients are not very bad. It does not contain parabens and parfum, but has waxes, alcohol compounds and film forming agents. Overall, in my opinion, the ingredients are not bad and can even compete with some high end brands, but I would not recommend it for acne prone skin. The list in the end is for very pigmented colors, not the regular ones) : Propylene Glycol Dicaprylate/Dicaprate, Isononyl Isononanoate, Ozokerite, VP/Hexadecene Copolymer, Myristyl Lactate, Sorbitan Sesquioleate, Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E), Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract, Punica Granatum (Pomegranate) Extract, Ethylhexyl Hydroxystearate, Silica, BHA. May Contain: [+/- CI 77891 (Titanium Dioxide), CI 77489, CI 77491, CI 77492, CI 77499 (Iron Oxides), CI 77007 (Ultramarines), CI 77288 (Chromium Oxide Greens), CI 15850 (Red 6 Lake), CI 15850 (Red 7 Lake), CI 19140 (Yellow 5 Lake)].I wash my face twice a day - first in the morning I exfoliate prior to applying my sebum and age control skin care, then I use Mehron as a concealer and put my powder. Sometimes I use it over my entire face as a foundation. In the evening I wash my makeup away immediately after coming home and in this case this foundation does not clog my pores, cause break-outs or irritation.If I apply it as foundation, it looks and photographs as a dream, I get tons of compliments. The downside is that for perfect all day look, it needs touch-ups, it transfers a bit (on my phone, I have not noticed anything on clothes, but I always put it on after getting dressed for going out, so can't say really) and I have not found out a way to make it stay on wings of my nose :) I ordered setting powder and will see how it works.All in all, if you are not against cream HD foundations, this is definitely worth the price, has almost any skin tone one could possibly think of, can be used as a concealer and has different shades for contouring and even blushing. I would definitely recommend and buy it again. I would not, however, advise it for dry or acne prone skin - it contains waxes and film forming agents, so...
