From Monday 24th to Sunday 7th, I am doing a review a day. Today's is of the No7 match made service and of the No7 Beautifully matte foundation in calico. 

Tagline:
No7 Beautifully matte foundation balances oil production and minimises the appearance of blemishes. Colour stays true and looks fresher for longer. Shine free for up to 12 hours.
Price:
£12.95
Colour:
Calico
Packaging:
Love the packaging. To me, it looks quite high end. Slightly frosted clear plastic and black plastic lid. Foundation pump already installed so you don't have to buy a seperate one, unlike some foundations.

This look is inspired by this video from Pixiwoo. I wanted to create a brown grungy look as it went with my outfit and I wanted to try out some of my recent purchases. The brown complements my blue eyes and the nude lips work with the heavy eyes.

Today, I went into town to shop for a few things for my Final Major Project. Whilst I was in town, I nipped into Boots at I had a £3 off voucher for No7 make up. I needed a new foundation as my Avon one is nearly empty. I choose No7 because I wanted to try out the Match Made service for No7 Foundations. These links are all about it.

I found the process quick, easy and very helpful. I would recommend doing the Match made service as it makes sure that you buy the right shade and type of foundation for your skin, a problem that many women have.

I found out that I am the lightest shade (which is no surprise!) which is called Calico. I purchased the Beautifully Matte foundation as it is made for skin that is oily and the consultant said that a lot of young people wear it. It is normally £12.95 but I paid £9.95 with my voucher. I am planning on doing an in-depth review once I have worn it a few times.
