Maybelline Fit Me Foundation in 115 Ivory





I bought this Fit Me foundation in 115 Ivory at Walgreens a couple weeks ago for roughly $8. Everytime i had almost bought it before, i decided against it in the end because NONE of the shades matched me well enough. However, i decided to try it anyways =\
My skin tone is pale with olive undertones. So typically i need a yellow based foundation - not pink. Unfortunately this Fit Me is pink toned. *Everyone i talked to said it looked great and matched my skin fine but i dont think so LOL
My current foundation is CoverGirl TruBlend foundation in Classic Ivory. Its the perfect shade for my face and has blendable minerals + a pump bottle, which i love.
Maybelline Fit Me
[PROS]
very lightweight
blends easily
feels soft on face
medium coverage
sleek packaging
comes in TONS of shades
has SPF 18
[CONS]
too pink
super runny
no pump
If you check out Photo #3 you'll notice that the Fit Me shade is super pink toned and more runny compared to my CG foundation - both are shades of Ivory - both are the 2nd lightest shade in each of their collections. I dont hate the Fit Me foundation.... it blends well and covers great but i feel like when i put it on my face and neck dont match - the shades are off. I cant buy the lighter shade of Fit Me (theres only one more) because its TOO light for me. I am going to attempt to use this more, maybe mix it w/ a moisturizer or another foundation to even out the color but if it fails i will not be buying Fit Me again.

  4. I love the fit me foundation! I don't know why but I prefer bottles without a pump. I think the pump wastes product! lol.
