Hi guys,
How are you today? If you read
my recent haul post then you will know I picked up the Kat
Von D Lock It Foundation ($35) in the shade Light 45 from Sephora. It
was £24.20 but with other items including the Shade and Light Palette ($46) and the Everlasting Liquid Lipstick ($20) in shade Outlaw the total
came to £99. The shipping, duties and taxes alone were £29!! So if you don’t
have a Sephora near you and decide that you want to buy any Kat Von D products
or anything from Sephora, then I would suggest pitching in with some friends
and splitting the cost of the shipping.
Anyway, let’s get onto the most
important thing eh, the review. I was desperate to try this as I heard so many
great things from the American bloggers and youtubers. I wasn’t too sure on
what shade to buy but settled on Light 45 and it turned out to be the perfect
shade for me. They have 19 different shades so there is something for everyone.
The formula is very thick; it
is a silicone based foundation that offers high pigmentation and full coverage.
Trust me when I say that this is full coverage as it will literally cover
everything. I never usually go for full coverage foundations as I am always
scared that my skin will look cakey or fake but this one works. I use one pump only
and blend out with my Sigma F80 Flat Kabuki Brush (£15.70) or a damp Beauty Blender (£16) and find
that it blends out perfectly and leaves my skin beautifully matte.
KVD is paraben, oil and
fragrance free and works with all skin types. I personally have oily skin with
the odd dry patch and haven’t noticed it sliding off my face nor stick to my
dry patches, however I do use the Mario Badescu Rose Facial Spray before
applying the foundation as well as the Nivea Post Shave Balm to give me added
hydration and then give a final spritz of MB when I have applied my make up, so
this sucker is not going to move.
All in all, a mighty fine
foundation that gives the most amazing finish. It is super pigmented, easy to
blend out and doesn’t irritate my skin.
Have
you tried this foundation?
Have
you tried anything else from the KVD beauty line that you would recommend?
Sounds pretty amazing! I have her shade & light eye contour palette & LOVE it! xx

I really wanted the eye palette but settled on the contour palette instead. How is the eye palette? Xx
DeleteI've only heard good things of the Kat Von D makeup! I wish we could get it more easily in the UK. You'd have thought she'd have brought it over here already. I would love to try it.

Its a pain in the backside that we dont stock it in the UK! Maybe if we petition then she will listen to our cries and bring it over :) xx
DeleteI loved this foundation! It's probably the highest coverage foundation I've ever tried (reminded me a little of face paint) but it does exactly what it does on the tin. I really recommend her liquid eyeliner too - best one I've ever used! Just stumbled across your blog, it's amazing :)

I have been meaning to pick up her eyeliner as everyone raves about it. And yes, it is like face paint actually! :) xx
DeleteThis sounds very interesting, i love the packaging of the Kat Von D items they are so pretty! I haven't tried any of her products yet, but taking a trip to Sephora next month so might have to buy some! xx

You NEED to try this! You wont regret it. I hear her eyeliners and eyeshadows are amazing too. I am also loving her shade and light contour palette xx
DeleteEverything KVD touches is pure gold. Too bad I can't use this foundation as sodium chloride breaks me out :( Hopefully I can find something comparable out there.

Oh really! Thats a shame, let me know if you find something similar, would love to know :) xx
DeleteI'm glad you had such a good experience. I'm always really nervous about foundations! I've never tried Kat Von D one, but I have seen very good review about this. I only used lipstick and eyeliner from this brand and I am freaking love them! <3 I recently just did makeup classes for beginners London , so I am trying to practice as much as I can, also trying new products to improve my knowledge and skill. Can you please suggest me which shade I should go for, I am nc42.
