PÜR Cosmetics recently released a new foundation in a stick form, the 4-in-1 Foundation Stick and I had the pleasure of testing it out. The foundation is a velvety matte 4-in-1 Foundation Stick with buildable medium-to-full coverage that allows you to look fabulous from all angles—360-degree complexion perfection.
A captivating, creamy 4-in-1 Foundation Stick that’s formulated with age-defying Ceretin® Complex and skin-nourishing Energy Complex to conceal, contour and highlight. The results: brightening of uneven skin tone, supple hydration, reduction in dullness and the look of pores and protection against environmental stressors such as skin fatigue and signs of aging. Eye-catching, sleek octagonal stick design. Just pop it in your bag and go.
There are 24 creamy, flattering shades that offer beautiful, medium to full, stay-true coverage for a natural look that’s perfect for all skin types. I received the shade Light Tan (For light tan skin yellow undertones). The shade Light Tan has a yellow undertone and matches my skin very well although I would have prefer it to be slightly darker/golden (only because my face is lighter than the rest of my body).
The pigmentation of the foundation stick is out of this world, I literally needed one swipe on each cheek, one swipe on my forehead and one on my chin to achieve medium coverage. The foundation stick blends effortlessly onto the skin and looks very natural. It has a velvet-matte finish and doesn’t stay sticky on the skin so I didn’t feel the need to powder my face. The texture is smooth and creamy enough that it applies and blends easily over my primed skin.
My skin is dry/combination so for this foundation I used a hydrating primer before applying the foundation stick and it worked really well and didn’t leave me with any dry patches. I would say that since this foundation has a velvety matte finish it would be good for people with normal to combination and oily skin. Really oily skin can pair this with a mattifying primer.
The stick form makes for a very easy application and it’s also very travel friendly plus since the foundation stick is so pigmented you only need a tiny amount of product to achieve medium coverage. The foundation is buildable medium-to-full coverage but still looks natural on the skin.
TIP: If you prefer lighter bases, you can always use a damp sponge for blending which will sheer out the foundation and leave you with a very natural base.
The PÜR Cosmetics 4-in-1 Foundation Stick is available online and it’s priced at CAD $44 / US $34.
