I got a sample of the Helena Rubinstein's Foundation called Spectacular when shopping a few weeks ago. I finally decided to give it a try. My first impression was really good. The consistency was amazing, not too liquid not to dry, the pigmentation was really good as well. It was easy to blend and it felt amazing on my skin. I wore it for half an hour, even though the colour didn't match perfectly - I had nothing to do the day other than cleaning my apartment, it therefore didn't matter. I noticed how my face started to itch, nothing too bad but noticeably. After 40 minutes I gave up and decided to take it off. When I took it off, my face was red. Not just with a little tint, but red as a tomato. I forgot to take a picture to show you, but I took one after 2 hours. My face is still slightly red and irritated. I had applied moisturiser to calm my face, that's why it's shiny and white dots show. I do apologise for how ugly I look. Haha.
My skin isn't sensitive, and I've never had such a reaction to any product before. I don't know what it was that made my face red, slightly swollen and irritated. This may work perfectly for others, but I thought it'd be better to inform people about the reaction it had on my face.
Have you used it before, did it have the same reaction?
