Rating my Foundations in (almost) one word!
Jul 24, 2025
Have you ever stared at your foundation collection wondering “Do I still love this?” If this sounds like you then keep reading!
I went through every foundation I’ve been using- some cult favorites, some hidden gems, and gave each one a brutally honest one-word review. No fluff, no long breakdowns. Just my honest gut reaction after using them in real life.
Some of these I swear by, some... not so much. Let’s get into it.

Foundations and makeup in general are so personal and it's important for me to mention that what works for me might not work for you, but these one-word reviews give you a quick, unfiltered take based on my experience.
