I have been buying a ton of foundation lately, mainly because there are so many new ones out there. I especially love foundation that I can travel with without worrying about it spilling in my bag. I saw some new Maybelline Fit Me Shine Free Foundation in a gel stick and was intrigued. It is a stick foundation that has an anti-shine core that leaves a matte finish and it is wonderful! It offers moderate coverage, which is buildable, because you just roll the stick over your face where you want coverage, then use your fingers to blend it in. There are 12 shades available and I just love this gel foundation because it blends so easily and is lightweight. The anti-shine core contains powder which helps the foundation set to a matte finish. I have been loving the fact that this product is oil-free too, and the powder core helps to absorb excess oil. This is perfect for summer. It’s also very easy to touch up because you can throw the stick in your bag and carry it with you on vacation as well.

If you prefer liquid, try Maybelline New York’s Fit Me! Makeup Liquid Foundation. It’s also oil free, light, and breathable, and available in 18 shades. If you want full coverage, you can use the liquid foundation, and then use a slightly lighter shade of the gel stick as a concealer or highlighter.

This line of foundation is wonderful and you really can’t beat the convenience of the stick foundation during a night out or on your summer vacation. You can pick up Maybelline Fit Me Shine Free Foundation online at Walgreens or Look Fantastic, or at your local drugstore.

Which do you prefer for summer, stick foundations or oil-free liquid?
