This unique foundation stick combines the coverage of a concealer.

The seamless fluidity of a foundation.

To create the perfect two in one, that will stay on your skin all day long!

And I can confirm – it definitely does not move!

I went for shade Beige, and drew a couple of lines across my forehead, cheeks and chin.

Then I use the Hourglass Foundation Brush

(THE best foundation brush you will ever use FYI)

To blend it in seamlessly…

Once buffed in, I added the Rodial Banana Lowlighter under my eyes.

Then patted the Laura Mercier Translucent Setting Powder across my skin to see the finished look…

I was actually really pleased with the finish of this foundation.

When I first applied it to my skin I thought it might look a bit cakey…

But once buffed in it really does cover every single imperfection and gives you a flawless finish.

Probably the most flawless finish I’ve had from a foundation!

The idea behind this Bobbi Brown Foundation Skin Stick is that it gives a seamless veil over the skin…

A natural looking coverage.

With Olive Extracts and Shea Butter, this foundation promises to nourish your skin.

And it definitely does feel a lot more moisturising than the Hourglass stick…

I went for shade Natural Tan.

And once buffed in (with my, ahem, Hourglass Foundation Brush)…

I thought this foundation definitely gave a nice glow.

It’s definitely a more natural look (as they advertise).

To me, it’s more like a tinted moisturiser.

This gave a nice bright finish, which stayed put throughout the night.

However, you can definitely see more of my freckles and ‘imperfections’ with the Bobbi Brown compared to the Hourglass.

Hourglass is My Winner

I’m more of a full coverage kinda gal…

So the Hourglass Vanish Seamless is exactly what I was looking for. 

If you want a bold foundation stick, with a beautiful tanned shade (Shade Beige) and a creamy finish, invest in the Hourglass Foundation stick.

If you’re looking for a natural finish, then Bobbi Brown would be the perfect option.
