Foundations are up there with my most favourite makeup products ever and I absolutely love trying out new ones. I have been testing the brand new Soap and Glory One Heck of a Blot Foundation. Here’s the low down.

So this is described as an All Day Liquid to Powder Foundation which I love the idea of because I don’t often like using a powder but I also hate shine.

Now I do love a full coverage foundation. Skin flawlessness is an obsession for me and I love now that you can get full coverage products that still look like skin. I got on really well with this foundation. Although it’s a matte finish, it isn’t flat matte and still allows the skin’s natural radiance to shine through.

If I was going to compare this to a high end foundation, I think it would be Too Faced Born This Way which I absolutely adore. It offers high coverage that is easy to blend yet still looks like skin, and it lasts really well.

Soap and Glory One Heck of a Blot Foundation evens out my skin tone really fast – it covers redness, blurs out enlarged pores and really softens the lines around my eyes. I didn’t bother setting it with a powder and didn’t regret it as it lasted really well all evening without any shine coming through. I think it looks good in photos too.

I think it’s a bit of a shame that there are only 4 shades but luckily the lightest one, Fair Enough, matched my skin tone very well.

It’s a lovely foundation and a good price. Soap and Glory One Heck of a Blot Foundation is £12. It will be available exclusively at Boots.

  • Lovely post! Am very interested in this recent trend of full coverage foundation. Just wonder how you’d compare this with the bourjois air mat foundation you recently reviewed?

    • This is one if more creamy and liquidy I think, which I love, and I think the Bourjois has a thicker, denser consistency. I think perhaps Bourjois is slightly higher coverage and sticks instantly to the skin more which means it probably lasts a bit longer than this, but makes it a tiny bit harder to blend. I also think the Bourjois is slightly more matte whereas the S&G has a more luminous finish. Also I prefer the colour match of this one as I think I don’t have exactly the right shade in Bourjois.

      Hope that helps – it probably sounds like nonsense!! xxx

  • Thank you for the detailed explanation -that’s really helpful. Sounds like I might prefer the S&G one too. Many thanks again, much appreciated.
