What they flagged

  • Shade range skews yellow or neutral
  • Limited shade match for some skin tones

What the gurus are saying

One creator found the shade range a bit limiting, it skewed either too dark, too light, too neutral, or too yellow for a perfect match straight from the bottle, though mixing it with another foundation solved the problem and delivered a finish they loved. Another tester's verdict was brief and inconclusive, so there is not a lot to go on just yet.

~Yay
"It's definitely full coverage but it's not ridiculously matte. It's a very moisturizing foundation. When they say it has a hydration boost it absolutely does. It feels like a skin care cream when you're blending it out. The finish is a satin hydrating finish. It has a little bit of a scent, just keep that in mind. The formula feels slightly thicker than some other foundations, but the finish is very similar to more expensive options. You can see that hydration in the wear."

"I mixed the elf soft Glam satin foundation and the Rimmel Lasting Finish Foundation because this is a little dark, this is a little light, this is a little too on the neutral side, and this is a little too yellow. Made a perfect color made a perfect color for my skin, also perfect finish."

"Oh no that's Rimmel lasting finish do this one and then the Maybelline"

What the evidence says.

Independent of what the gurus think, this is what the published research supports about the main active ingredients here.

Sunscreen filters

Sun protection is the best evidenced way to slow visible ageing, and the filters are what does the work. Mineral and chemical filters both protect when a product is applied thickly enough and often enough, which is where most people fall short rather than on the choice of filter.
