Benefit Hello Flawless Oxygen Wow Foundation Review

Andrew JamesMonday, July 01, 2013 13 Comments




Hey Beauties!

I seem to be pretty slow on this front with the Hello Flawless Oxygen Wow Foundation which is a mouthful to say haha! I really want to wait to use this for a while before i gave a review. I got this at the launch event for the Benefit Stay Flawless Primer so it was awhile ago but i feel like i can make a good review now. I haven't ever been a big fan of Benefit foundation they just haven't been good in my opinion but this one was promising.

Colour and Pigmentation

The Benefit Hello Flawless Oxygen Wow Foundation comes in 9 different shades starting at Ivory "Believe in me" all the way up to quite a warm deep tone called Nutmeg "Gotta Know Me" there is quite a good mix of warm and cool tones which you dont often see. Hello Flawless has a light to medium coverage which is buildable it contains no oils and is said to be brightening makeup and has a SPF of 25



For Reference this shade is Ivory (Im Pure 4 Sure)


Wear Time

I find the wear on this foundation is alright its nothing bad i got about 4 hours of wear from just using the foundation in 25 degree heat then i used it again on another shoot using the Stay Flawless Primer (Full Review Here) and it lasted so much longer i think the primer combined with the foundation makes it last so much longer i got easily a full days wear out of it


Packaging

I quite like the packaging of this because it's fun and it's cute but its also really functional as the bottle has a pump which we all know is a godsend with foundations because a foundation without a pump is the worst. The lid stays on really well so no accidental spillage in your bag and i like the fact the bottle is clear as well so you can see how much is left before you run out






Price and Where to Buy

You can get the Benefit Hello Flawless Oxygen Wow Foundation from any of the Benefit counters in department stores or online here and it retails at £25.50

The Good and The Bad

The Good?- It really looks natural and pretty on anyone really
The Bad?- I wish it lasted longer on its own without the primer


Have you tried Hello Flawless?

    I don't like Hello Flawless in the compact, so I just don't think of them for foundation. I know a few girls who really like this new liquid, but had the same issue you do, doesn't last. Good review Andy!

    Have always wanted to try this product, but their range in shades is rather limited for dark skin :(. Hopefully one day they'll introduce more shades :)

    I absolutely adore the packaging of this. I do find it doesn't last too long on me either sadly.

    Good review Andy !! But I heard mixed reviews about this product. It better get a sample first ,if it works then go for it .. !!

  10. Thanks! Yeah I'd suggest getting a sample first because it doesn't last ages so it might not be good for you if you want something long lasting x

  11. I think the primer or the use of any primer will extend the wear some what but I wish they did make it a little but more long wearing x

  12. I think they do a really deep shade I remember epihannie saying that it did go pretty deep x
