About the Product –
Flawless lets the real you come through. Beyond matching: fresh, breathing, natural skin.
SPF 18.
Why you’ll love Maybelline New York Fit Me Liquid Foundation SPF 18:
It’s makeup that fits you.
– No oils, no waxes, no nonsense.
– Natural coverage that leaves skin the way it was meant to be…fresh, breathing, natural.
– Exclusive translucent base and lightweight pigments allow skin’s natural highs and lows to show through.
– Non-comedogenic, dermatologist-tested.
I have always wanted to try Fit Me range after seeing it everywhere, but Its not available in India, so during one of the sales (at feelunique) I picked the foundation & Concealer. I looked at the swatches online and went for 315 “Soft Honey”
Shade – I picked “315 Soft Honey” in Maybelline Fit Me Foundation. The shade is a bit dark for my NC 42 skintone, I guess this one will looks good in NC44 skin. Also I can see peach undertones there, and that’s how it evens out discoloration very well.
Texture & Formula – Maybelline Fit Me Foundation has a runny formula. It spreads and blends easily whether you use a brush or fingers. It takes a bit to set but doesn’t feel heavy or cakey whatsoever. I find the formula pretty light weight and good for summers, however It has a glowy finish, so those who don’t like dewy finishes have to set it with a powder. Formula is moisturizing, keeps skin comfortable and doesn’t highlight dry patches. I would say this is perfect for dry combination skin. Foundation comes with SPF 18 but doesn’t leave a white cast in flash photography.
Coverage – Maybelline Fit Me Foundation provides light to medium coverage, that means it will cover some discoloration and even out complexions, but wouldn’t do much if you have lots of blemishes or dark marks to hide. For that using a separate concealer is recommended.
I have worn only foundation in below pictures, no concealer no setting powderThat’s how the foundation looks after powder and some blush
Staying Power – It stays on for 6+ hours on me, depending on the weather conditions. Check out the review of Maybelline Fit Me Concealer HERE

Overall Thoughts
If you are looking for a lightweight foundation that evens out complexion and looks natural , do try Maybelline Fit Me Foundation. Formula applies and blends easily and gives a dewy finish. Availability is an issue , but you can but it online. I would recommend Maybelline Fit Me Foundation to those who have dry skin, its also a perfect formula for winters.
