A 4 in 1! You don’t hear that often! This foundation and concealer helps ‘ blur the look of imperfections’ which definitely will prove useful when trying to conceal acne marks, but that’s not all, it’s infused with a load of skin caring nutrients which help ‘ fight against environmental stresses as well as skin damaging effects’.
Other skin beneficial ingredients include green tea, ginseng and vitamin B. You are probably going to be shocked after hearing they have a massive range of shades, around 100! Like really!

This liquid foundation provides a full coverage finish but with a lightweight feel that doesn’t ‘smudge, budge or transfer’. Its free from chemicals like parabens too!

These foundations are known to be self setting and blend ‘effortlessly’ forming a smooth ‘soft focus effect’. The finish isn’t dewy neither matte but something in between ‘skin like’! Sounds awesome right?!
It is a medium coverage skin friendly formula which features key active ingredients like uji tea extract leaves known for its health giving properties, antioxidants and protection from free radical damage, this reducing inflammation and premature signs of ageing.
A biopolymer called filmexel acts as a natural barrier against irritants by forming a ‘resistant and flexible mesh’!

This is a very interesting article and as someone that has struggled with acne in the past something I wish I had know more about before. Acne can really be difficult for some people I was fortunate and it didn’t affect me for all of my life but when it did it was awful. Things like the Elf acne fighting foundation could have been a game changer for me had I known about it when I was dealing with acne. Thanks for writing such an informative article and I hope you do more of these soon!!
