A beauty blog review on Too Faced Cocoa Pressed Powder Foundation

Too Faced Cosmetics are one of my favourite make-up brands,  I love everything about their products and am a huge fan of their packaging. When I picked up this Cocoa Powder Foundation I was slightly nervous to try it, and so it has been sat in my beauty stash, unused, for quite some time. I have only recently been converted to trying out a loose mineral powder foundation, never mind a pressed compact. What would the liquid foundation lover in me think?

Well, a girl cannot resist chocolate. 
The Too Faced Cosmetics Cocoa Powder Foundation is in fact beautiful. It is one of the only foundations I have tried, confidently, which has remained shine and oil free – all day long. The weightless, plush matte formula glides onto the skin and feels completely undetectable – to the point where I always apply too much as I cannot feel it at all. Thanks to the cocoa powder, this foundation is rich in antioxidants so is fabulous for your skin. It absorbs oil yet is non drying and does not leave a chalky finish. With properties that also hydrate and smooth the skin, it fits perfectly with my skin type. I am dehydrated with an extremely oily t-zone, so to find a foundation that adapts and works with my skin is just brilliant. 
Even though this is amazingly undetectable on the skin, it also somehow manages to give a medium coverage. Any small blemishes and fine lines are practically erased leaving your skin all flawless and what not. 
I have been wearing this more than I expected too, especially as I really am not a fan of powder foundation. A very nice change indeed. Definitely one I would recommend to throw in your hand bag for on the go touch ups and travels! For £28 it is up on the expensive side, but it really is worth every penny. The shade range isn’t all that great with only 8 to choose from, however these are flexible shades designed to blend with multiple skin tones,  ideally there will be one to suit everyone.
Did I mention it smells of chocolate? Need I say anymore. Available here from Look Fantastic.
