Recently i read a post on Miss Nattys Beauty Diary blog about this Sally Hansen Natural Beauty foundation. I always see this brand at CVS and i never stop to check it out because i dont really hear about it. I've seen it at Ulta a few days ago and it's at the clearance rack for half the price. I didn't find the color i was looking for, so i had to purchase it at CVS for $12.99- boo =( . Either way it was worth it because i love it. I got two things, the foundation in Sandy Beige and a sun glow powder bronzer in Spring.

Sally Hansen Naturaly Beauty Foundation in Sandy Beige
I followed Nattys review on this and went ahead to purchase it in the shade Sandy Beige. I was looking at Tawny Beige, but it looked too dark and more on the pink side and im more yellow undertoned. I have a sample of Mac studio fix in NC35 and my usual Revlon colorstay in Warm Golden, so im going to compare it to those two.
Pick a shade, any shade...
Finding a shade that matches my skintone is a pain the butt. Im yellow undertoned but my cheeks have a sort of rosy tint to them, so when i apply color all over my face, i need something that evens it out. I usually apply more foundation on my cheeks so it can cover it up. I know i have to invest in a concealer or color correctors but i spend too much on other stuff so i can't balance it out lol The shade in Sandy Beige has been working perfect for me. I've been wearing it for three days now and i dont think i found something that matches my skin and blends smoothly with my neckline as good as this. Mac studio fix in NC35 and my Revlon in Warm Golden had a baby and its called Sally Hansen Natural Beauty in Sandy Beige! lol
My personal review...
I think its a fabulous foundation to try out. It's very soft and creamy. It doesn't have a weird foundation smell like the Revlon does. My revlon is super runny and it wastes a lot of product when i try to dump it out. The Sally Hansen foundation is not thick, but not runny either. It blends very easily and i would say it's a medium coverage. It doesn't feel sticky or heavy on my face. I think the Revlon feels a lot more heavy than this one does. It blends beautifully and leaves the skin with a dewy look. The problem with this is the fact that i have oily skin, so i have to blot my face once or twice througout the day. I think this is a perfect foundation for fall and winter, not summer...at least for me. I really hope they dont discontinue it and i will definitely be visiting another Ulta to find some backups and hopefully find my shade this time.
Pros:
- Has a pump ... AMAZING!!!
- Soft and creamy
- Doesn't smell like foundation
- Good coverage, definitely buildable
- Blends heavenly
- Feels lighter than other foundations
- Looks natural
Cons:
- Might not cover all imperfections
- A little oily for oily skin types
- Limited range of colors

Sally Hansen Natural Beauty Sun Glow Powder Bronzer
There are two shades of these bronzers, one is Summer and the other is Spring, the one i got. First of all the packaging got to me lol It was $12.99 at CVS. I wanted to get Summer, since it is summer, but i have enough bronzers and i wanted to try something different that gave a slight pink glow to my face, instead of just bronze.
Sucker for cute packaging...
It comes in a fancy looking compact, that opens up to reveal a gorgeously divided powder bronzer. There are three different shades of color. One is a bronzer with golden sparkles, which reminds me of Macs Refined Golden bronzer (which i love!). The little bit of pink, which is the shape of petals of a sunflower, is a pale pink that has a sort of satiny feel to it. The middle of the sunflower shape is a more matte bronzer. The quality is super soft and goes on smoothly. It gives my cheeks a nice soft bronzy glow with a hint of flushy pink. The compact also opens up and includes a mirror and came with a little thin angled brush, which i probably wont use lol but its cute anyway. I really do like this and im glad i got it.
