REVIEW: 100% Pure HEALTHY SKIN FOUNDATION WITH SUPER FRUITS SPF 20 (full coverage / satin finish)

100% Pure HEALTHY SKIN FOUNDATION WITH SUPER FRUITS SPF 20 

I originally bought this foundation because it was 100% natural and so good for the skin without being full of nut oils that are often seen in natural foundations. Here are the color choices and ingredients from the website: 


Ingredients: Organic Aloe Barbadensis Leaf (Aloe Juice)1, Oryza Sativa (Rice) Starch, Extracts of Prunus Persica Fruit (Peach), Prunus Armeniaca Fruit (Apricot), Theobroma Cacao (Cocoa Bean) and Lycium Barbarum Fruit (Goji Berry), Euterpe Oleracea Pulp (Acai) Oil, Punica Granatum Fruit Extract (Pomegranate Oil), Tocopherol (Vitamin E), Sodium Ascorbate (Vitamin C), Euphorbia Cerifera (Candelilla) Wax, Extracts of Organic Camelia Sinensis Leaf Ferment (White Tea)2, Coffea Arabica (Coffee Cherry), Aristotelia Chilensis (Maqui Berry), Vitis Vinifera Skin (Muscadine Grape), Garcinia Mangosteen Peel (Mangosteen), Malpighia Punicifolia Fruit (Acerola), Sambucus Canadensis (Elderberry), Citrus Grandis (Grapefruit) Seed, Lonicera Caprifolium (Japanese Honeysuckle)
SUNSCREEN ACTIVE INGREDIENTS: 15% Titanium Dioxide, 10% Zinc Oxide

    • I purchased the foundation in the color, creme, which I initially believed would be too pale, but later found it to be good. I have mixed reviews about the foundation. For a few months I loved it, but recently, I've found it to be not so great. 

The colour has a good tone and is on the yellow spectrum rather than pink. It produces a really nice warm, glowing appearance. 



The foundation is a little hard to blend, but with warm hands (I've found this the best method of application) it blends after some time. The consistency is good, as is the coverage. The finish is almost powdery, but I wear a moisturizer under which provides a even softer finish.

My main issue with this foundation is that despite loving my make up when leaving the house, after a few hours, the foundation seems to vanish off parts of my face and stay on others and also change to an orangy colour. The staying power is not good.  This is obviously not a great look, and for this reason I only recommend the foundation for short periods of time. I haven't tried this foundation with a primer  (as I haven't found a natural version that I like yet, and using a chemical version would take the point out of a natural foundation), but using a primer may help the foundation last. 

At the moment, I can't get the foundation to work for me, but hopefully I'll keep trying to find ways to help the foundation work. I'd like to try 100% pure's tinted moisturizer and see if that is any better. But for now, I'll stick to the chemicals, it's a shame, but I guess we really can't live without the chemicals. 

Overall, I give this foundation 6/10.

  2. FYI, it's pretty much a beauty must to wear a primer underneath your makeup.

  4. Never let your kids bounce on your trampoline without
    an adult being there at all times. The look on a child's face as he experiences the joy
    of jumping and the pure freedom of bouncing are worth more than we could ever imagine.
    There is no lack of seriousness or sentiment in the Scots.
