Happy Sunday everyone! I've been searching around for a new lighter foundation and ultimately took a gamble and decided on the Lunasol one. I tried Lancome's Teint Miracle (no color match) and the much raved about Chanel's Vitalumiere Aqua (way too much alcohol in this totally dries up my skin...).
LUNASOL WATERY MAKEUP BASE
SPF27・PA++
A makeup base that leaves the skin bright and translucent with a succulent, light texture.
Smoothes over the entire skin and evens out visible pores and uneven surfaces, leaving the skin velvety smooth. Contains beauty essence ingredients.

woww~ i have been eyeing that Lunasol foundation. however, yeah it is a bit pricey for me, but i guess i'll just check it out at the counter during the summer. IM watching 49 days. Love itt~
Yay for your review! I haven't tried out my Lunasol Water Gel Foundation yet, so I can not tell anything about it so far. I actually wanted to get the Watery Makeup Base too, but skipped it, since I found a sunscreen I really love, since it does a good job as a makeup base.
But after reading your review, I might pick it up next time! ;)
Btw, have you compared the result of the Water Gel Foundation when used alone and with the Watery Makeup Base? Is there a difference?
Thanks for the great review! This foundation looks really lightweight. The gel formula sounds interesting too - I hate foundations that are heavy to blend. I wish this was more easily attainable in the US though...I hear a lot of good reviews on Lunasol face products and have always wanted to try them :)
when the weather gets more pleasant here i'll try that water gel base and foundation! its too hot to wear makeup right now >.<
The foundation sounds great esp if it's not oily and doesn't sink into pores. Thanks for the review :)
yeah check it out in asia if you're going it's probably a lot cheaper there than online lol! I loooove that drama! kang and scheduler are sooo cute!!
I have used it alone and it's ok if you don't have oily skin...I have large pores and oily so I like to put a base before foundation so make it last longer.
yeah i really love lunasol face products! I've been dabbling in a lot of asian base products the colour match is so much better!
haha! its really hot where you at already? it's JUST getting warmer here lol
no prob i so many base products to review so expect more to come haha!
I have been eyeing on this water gel foundation too. I am a NC-30 so I am not sure if OC-3 will match me... sigh and it's quite pricey too!
Mind I ask where did you purchase them from?
i love anything with the word "gel" in it! lol it just sounds so refreshing and hydrating :) i'm really curious to try out this foundation as well
That gel/foundation looks so much more refreshing than regular foundation!~ Perfect for the summer! ^^
I bought it from imomoko.com
oh thanks! wow $65!!! Em, let me see if my friend in Japan can pick this one up for me next time she is sending me something :)
Definitely will need this for summer!
Ok, where have I been? Didn't even know Lunasol came out with this! I like that this is in gel form. (I've tried the water cream foundation and it was too heavy for me)
