Got Olive or Tanned skin? Want an affordable foundation that will not only give you a smooth finish but will also make you glow? Look no further, the EX 1 Invisiwear foundation is here to serve you beautiful!

Created by biochemist, Farah Naz, this foundation has been specifically created for those with yellow undertones; perfect for South Asians complexions.

The foundation comes in a rose-coloured bottle and has a pump, making it easy to dispense the product. The great thing about this product is that, while you use it, the bottle pushes foundation up, so no drop is wasted! The centre of the bottle is clear, so you can see exactly how much of the foundation is left.  

Costing £12.50, and at 30ml this foundation comes under the drug store banner.  If you compare this to other high end foundations, for example the Mac Studio Fix Fluid Foundation which costs £23.50; the EX1 is half the price for the same amount of foundation. Defo worth the money!!

The foundation comes in 13 shades, it used to only have 5; F100 to F500; safe to save that the extension of colours is very welcomed!

You can pick up this little baby either from Harrods or the Oxford Street Top Shop flagship store. I got coloured matched at Harrods and I’m in the shade 6.0. Unfortunately, they were out of stock of this colour, so I got this online from lookfantastic.co.uk. I used their 10% discount code and got the foundation for £10! Bargain!

If you can’t go into the stores to get colour matched then fear not! The EX1 website as a foundation chart which compares all the leading foundations in a neat table and indicates which EX1 shade you will be. Alternatively, the website also offers to indicate what colour you would be if you send them a picture of yourself.

The EX1 Invisiwear foundations claims to be a lightweight, luminous foundation covering all your imperfections and being non-pore clogging. It is oil free and fragrance free.

So, what’s it like on application? The foundation is a gel like consistency and has no fragrance. Like with most of my foundations, I use a damp sponge to apply this to my face. It gives a light to medium coverage, and is buildable.  When applied it gives your skin a beautiful flawless look and a wonderful healthy glow, almost giving your face warmth. The foundation blends effortlessly and feels very lightweight on the skin.  The EX1 Invisiwear is not invisible but does give your face enough coverage without it looking cakey, illuminating your skin! It gives a semi-matte finish and will last you a good 6/8 hours without breaking or oxidising. The colour holds incredibly well. 

I have totally fallen in love with this foundation! If like me, you struggle to find a drug store foundation that matches your  olive skin perfectly, and feel that you will have to buy a high end one then look no further! This is the perfect alternative! This is a fantastic foundation of very high quality. It gives you inner luminosity and I can see why this is so popular amongst the A-listers, such as Selena Gomez, Nicole Scherzinger, Kate Hudson and many more!

Foundations lovers, the EX1 Invisiwear Foundations needs to be added to your collection. There is a reason why this is the world’s number one brand for olive skin tones. Not only does it give your face warmth, but it also makes your skin glow from within; perfect for when your face needs a little pick up, especially during Ramadan, when your skin can look a little dull.  The beauty of this product is that it is of premium quality with the price tag of a drug store foundation.

Go buy this my  beauties! It will not let you down!
