The foundation we're going to discuss today has won an Allure Beauty Award in the category: Best Foundation for Oily skin. I'm always on the hunt for a great foundation, so when I went to Sephora I decided to give Smashbox's Liquid Halo Hd foundation in the shade 10 a try.
The first thing I noticed when I applied the foundation was it's consistency. I kid you not when I say that this foundation has the most sublime fluid silky texture. It literally glides onto your face. It feels like a lightweight gel at first then dries matte. It's perfect for the hot summer months. Even though it dries matte, it totally nails the whole "natural glow" look without being greasy ( it's oil free btw!). I prefer a natural "your skin looks great" look vs a "love your makeup" look. I hate the cakey make-up look.
P R O S |

- Has SPF 15
C O N S |
- Not a great selection of shades available ( there are 10 shades). I was lucky to find a perfect match for my skin tone ( #10)
- Price. It certainly in the rank of higher end brands such as Laura Mercier.
I'm definitely a fan and will be repurchasing!
Have you ever tried this foundation. If so, what did you think of it?
