Travel Diaries #6: The Cover Up To Cover Up

Travel Diaries on vickiarcher.com


I found a cover up to cover up.

Not another camouflage jacket but camouflage nevertheless.

 


I have been test-driving Shiseido foundation, the Synchro Skin Luminizing Fluid Broad Spectrum; what a handful of a name.


Despite the lengthy description, this cover up foundation is really very good and I am enjoying wearing it.


It has a great texture; good coverage (the Goldilocks kind we love; not too much and not too little) and a delicious feel like serum. The fluid blends to your skin requirements, maintains the glow and hydrates all at the same time. There is also a welcome sunscreen factor.


Shiseido is a change from my usual Giorgio Armani cover-ups but a welcome one. Their smoothing eye patches are a given in my travel bag and this foundation might just be another one. With long days on the move, this really saved the day.


The shades are fabulous and blend in easily, particularly the N’s, which are my favourites; slightly rose without the dreaded peach.



This is one for your make-up bag when you are ready for a change, xv.
