Ever Bilena Pro Flawless Finish Foundation Review

I have been using this foundation for over a month now, and I believe it's enough time to test a product and review about it. I saw this at the counter, and I swatched it on the back of my hand, and it felt good on the skin. I loved how it glides on and blends really well. I was kind of hesitant to buy it because I haven't tried Ever Bilena's Foundation yet. I thought it wouldn't be a loss if I did, and ended up not liking it because it was only P165. Well, I'm so glad I did because I really like it. This has been my new everyday foundation since I got it!

It contains 30ml of product and comes in a frosted glass bottle with a pump so it's very convenient. I think the packaging is really neat. I got it in the shade Gold which matches my skin well. It's not too yellow, which is what I like most about it because I have neutral undertones( but generally yellow). If you are fair with neutral undertones, this is a good match for you.

Here's what Ever Bilena about the product:

"A long lasting liquid foundation that dries faster than the ordinary foundation. Leaving a soft natural finish without flaking effects. Enriched with Vitamin E that helps maintain natural skin moisture. Easily covers dark circles, redness, and minor skin imperfections. This unique foundation creates instant affinity with the skin that makes it glide on like silk and stay fresh looking as it imparts a glowing skin all day. Comes in frosted glass bottle with pump for ultimate control."

Ever Bilena Pro Flawless Finish Foundation Ingredients

Looking at the swatches below, this foundation is really runny. I have tried applying it with a brush and a sponge, but the best way that worked for me is using my fingers. This glides on the skin like silk and I enjoy every application! Take note that although the first ingredient is water, the next is mineral oil, so this really isn't as long staying as it says it is, especially if you have oily skin like me! I imagine this working a lot better and staying on longer on normal to dry skin. It has light to medium coverage and does a good job in evening out my skin. It's feels like a tinted moisturizer because it's so smooth on the skin, but this has better coverage. 

It
does cover dark circles, redness, minor imperfections and hyper pigmentation. If you do, however, have blemish spots, you will need to use a concealer. It's definitely buildable as long as you give it enough time to set before you apply the next layer. You also need to set this with a powder because with the summer heat now, it will slide off and look uneven in 2hrs hours if you don't! For more than a month of using this foundation, it never once caked on me, which is great!

At first, I thought this was a little dark for me but when I blended it on my skin, it just matched perfectly. It does oxidize, but it doesn't make your face look orange! I use this together with my mineral foundation, and they are a great pair! It blends with the mineral foundation nicely and doesn't give you dry patches. It doesn't cake too! As a matter of fact, it makes your skin look dewy and healthy, which is how I like it! So if you have a mineral foundation just sitting on your stash because you could not find a good base for it, give this a try! If you look at the photos below, you can see that this foundation looks great. Although you can still see some redness, it covers them well and makes it look natural! You can still see and feel your skin, but it makes it look better! It doesn't sit on the fine lines and it helps to minimize the appearance of pores. Below are some before are after photos.







Here are some of the looks I have done using the Ever Bilena Pro Flawless Finish Foundation 




If only this stays on longer, this would have been the perfect foundation! This just won't hold up very long on this hot weather! If you're outdoors this summer, 3hrs is lengthy enough unfortunately. It will look uneven and blotchy once it mixes with sweat and facial oil. If you're in a mall or in an area with AC though, it will last a lot longer, but you'll need to blot after about 6hrs, which to me is not bad! You can't expect this to be a long-wearing foundation for the price, right? I always use my ELF Mineral Face Primer first and set this with my Revlon or Avon Mineral Foundation, and I have to say that this combination makes me look like I have naturally good skin. No kidding! That's why I love this foundation :D.

I made a demo video using this foundation, and I will put it up after a few hours, so if you want to see how well this applies on the skin, come back and watch the demo video :).

This foundation isn't perfect, but I love how it makes me look and feel. It allows my skin to breathe while making me look neat and put together. And the best thing about this foundation is the price! You certainly can't beat that! I hope this review was helpful!

  3. I just bought Ever Bilena Pro Flawless Finish Foundation today and I love the results! It blends well on my skin and however, I need to use this product together with Ever Bilena Studio Finish Stick Foundation for me to achieve perfect results! This product is a must buy! It is a great alternative for BB cream!

  4. Great to hear! I agree that this is a good alternative for BB Cream since EB's BB Cream isn't really good IMHO. You also get good results if you set it with FS 2-Way Cake or a mineral foundation

  5. You have nice skin and this foundation just makes you glow! I don't like a very matte look because it makes people look more mature. Nice photos

  6. I like for my foundation to be dewy as well, unless it's summer, where I mostly use mineral foundation because it can stand the heat.
