High Street Foundation Series #2 Max Factor Facefinity 3 in 1

I've used this foundation quite a number of times now and I do like the coverage and finish.  After trying various methods of applying it I have found that my favourite way is by using the Real Techniques Sponge, a brush can sometimes leave it looking a little heavy for me and I don't feel like I can fully blend it into my skin.
The foundation retails for £11.99 which I do think is slightly pricey for high street but Superdrug and Boots often do special offers on Max Factor so its worth shopping around. Allbeauty also have this in stock with a discount here the price depends on which shade you are looking for but its still a few pounds cheaper than other places. You do have to spend £15.00 for free postage so its worth bearing that in mind. 

Face Finity All Day Flawless 3 in 1 foundation holds like a primer, corrects like a concealer with the long lasting finish of a liquid foundation with SPF 20.
  • Lasts all day, giving a flawless finish
  • Primer gives a smooth base for hold
  • Concealer corrects for a flawless look

I do wear primer, foundation and concealer everyday so this claiming to be all those things in one for me could be a pretty good time saver in a morning, especially with time being so limited anyway (I like to sleep)




The foundation comes in a glass jar with a good pump that allows you to control the amount of product you want to use.

Left side is with foundation and right side is without. 





First picture is full face with the foundation and then full face of make up with powder and concealer under the eyes.



Full face including powder and concealer under the eyes.

It does give really good coverage for a foundation alone, as you can see from the first picture I do have quite a few blemishes at the moment and on the last picture they are much less noticeable. I didn't use any concealer on my face only under my eyes. 
The foundation gives a lovely satin finish and lasted a good 8 or so hours. 



Pros


Medium-full coverage
Has a pump (that is actually useful)
Lasts all day


Cons


Not a great range of colours
Slightly pricey for a high street foundation
Can look quite heavy
