Vapour Cosmetics Stick foundation


I've finally found a stick foundation that I am in LOVE with! What first caught my eye was that it's made from 70% certified organic ingredients. Also, the first ingredient listed was Sunflower Oil. Very good sign.

So I ordered my color and tried it out. It went on very smoothly and didn't clog my pores. Also, the smell was kind of nice and the color didn't look fake at all. Next time? Photoshoot!

Since I'm a makeup artist, one of my main concerns about the products I use it how they will turn out in photographs. Depending on the texture, color, and wear of a product it may or may not turn out looking as great when put through different lenses and lighting. I ordered the rest of the colors from the site and tried them on a variety of models throughout my last two photoshoots with great success! What surprised me was that even though there is a limited amount of colors (they company only makes 5 varities), I found that it blended so well that I had all the colors I needed for all my models. In that sense it kind of reminds me of Bare Escentuals, even though that is a mineral powder foundation. Nonetheless, I really appreciate the versatility of the products. I highly recommend this foundation!

*On a cute note: Great customer service! When I purchased a large order from them, they included a little gift in my package with nice note. I really appreciated~
