If you follow me on Twitter you’ll know I’ve been suffering with erratic allergy breakouts on my face recently and I’ve been struggling to find a great foundation that hasn’t made it worse.

My skin has been red raw in parts, lumpy and even more sensitive than usual and no matter what foundation I have tried, from Bourjois to Benefit to Chanel + Estee Lauder have all been oxidising and seperating to some degree making me look unsightly. I’ve spent a shed load trying lots of foundations to try and sort out my skin woes. When I haven’t been at work I’ve been taking the fresh air approach but sometimes make up is needed!

I must say Bourjois Healthy Mix + Serum has been a god send for light coverage on good days while Estee Lauder double wear was great when my skin was at its worst. This brought me to try the new 123 Perfect foundation from Bourjois as I usually get on so well with their Healthy Mix and their Healthy Mix + Serum.
