Black Opal Foundation Stick Carob 14.2 g

Product Information

With better spreadability, less filters are needed to provide the same SPF, making the formula lighter and nicer to use and with improved water resistance, your protection will last that bit longer in the pool. This does not mean that ascorbyl palmitate cannot penetrate the skin (because it can, it's oil soluble and the skin likes to absorb oil soluble things) but this means that it's questionable if ascorbyl palmitate can be converted into pure Vit C in the skin.

This is one of my favorite products from BlackOpal and I’ve been using this foundation for over 2years. It's definitely one of the best UV-filter agents we have today, especially in the US where new-generation Tinosorb filters are not (yet) approved.The trio is invaluable for "skin-colored" makeup products (think your foundation and pressed powder) as blending these three shades carefully can produce almost any shade of natural-looking flesh tones. A clear, light yellow liquid that is used to coat pigments (such as inorganic sunscreen agents or colorants) in cosmetic products. The black opal site describes this foundation as a broad spectrum full coverage; long-wear foundation.

I have done a mini-review of the black opal stick foundation when I talked about my favourite foundations and you can read about that here. Then when you hug people, make sure to do it an angle to avoid getting it on them and their clothes. It only protects against UVB and not UVA rays (the 320-400 nm range) – so always choose products that contain other sunscreens too. The general rule of thumb with contouring is to use one that is about 1-2 shades darker than your skin tone.So, AP is one of the attempts by the cosmetics industry to solve the stability issues with vitamin C while preserving its benefits, but it seems to fall short on several things. This foundation lasts a full campus day and is my go-to for nights out when I want to look flawless, not to mention, it covers up blemishes like a dream. Talking about my life experiences to help encourage others and also sharing my passion for Style, beauty and food is what I love doing.
