They often say that in foundation you can really notice a difference between a more expensive and a cheaper brand. I used to think so – until a few days ago I discovered something that I really want to share with you.
Some days ago I purchased a new foundation, Maybelline FitMe. Before that I had been using Dior Diorskin Forever and I had absolutely loved it. However, at least where I live that Dior-foundation costs about five times more than the Maybelline one which is not so lovable even about Dior.
When I tried FitMe for the first time I wanted to compare it with Dior and I was pleasantly surprised of how FitMe 115 is the exact same shade as Dior Forever 010 – I really couldn’t see any difference between the shades!
I got intrigued and decided to do half of my face with the leftovers of Dior and the other half with FitMe… and I was stunned; I couldn’t see any difference. Even after about six hours I still couldn’t see any difference!
Their consistency seems to be very similar if not the same. The coverage and finish also looks exactly the same. And they smell similar. I truly think that if I hadn’t known, I would have thought it’s the exact same foundation and the 9 €-foundation seems to be at least as good as the 55 €-foundation.
Needless to say, after this discovery I was rather happy I hadn’t purchased a new Dior foundation!
