Coverage: When mixed with moisturiser, customisable. It tends to be sheer though.
Skin Type: Dry-Normal skin.
Price: £8.50
This is supposed to be a foundation/concealer all-in-one product, however I found that if you used it straight from the pot it didn't blend into the skin very well.
A bit expensive for the tiny pot that you get...
It has yellow undertones.
I have combi-oily skin, and because this was so moisturising it broke me out.
It was nice of LUSH to think of us fair people though.
NOTE: Contains parabens!
I'd give this a 6 out of 10.
I have a passion for drugstore cosmetics and love reviewing and making tutorials with them!

Review: Lily Lolo Mineral Foundation SPF 15: UPDATED
Skin Type: Any. The finishing powders are skin-specific.
Coverage: Light
Price: £12.45
Lasting Power: all day if used with a finishing powder.
Rating: 9/10
I bought a couple of samples of this foundation and my first impressions were good. I bought Porcelain, China Doll and Candy Cane just so I could be sure of what color I was. I came up as Porcelain after about half an hour of messy sifting and applying of the foundation.
It was supposed to 'buff into the skin easily' and allow 'custom coverage' but, I was there buffing for ages trying to get it to look nice, it seemed to cake a little and look obvious over my nose, blackheads and spots at first but once you get used to using it with a Kabuki or a Buffing brush, it can look natural and as if it was your own skin.
EDIT: I have since bought the full sized pot which has a sifter and it has a good amount of product for the price so I'm happy with the product and that they have a shade that is perfect for my skin.
NOTE: I would definitely, hands-down suggest buying a kabuki with it because it makes it so much easier and gives a much nicer finish. If you are looking for lasting power it's important to get a finishing powder, their Flawless Matte finishing powder is very good! it absorbs any excess oils on your face with no problem and makes your face last all day.
