Waving my Too Faced Magic Wand

Sure we all love a bit of a new foundation, don't we? Too Faced launched their latest Magic Wand offering at the beginning of March, and it's another point-and-click doofer. Foundation plus brush are built into one mess-free wand, and it's got pretty packaging to boot. They say it's a "a beautiful foundation full of healthy ingredients like cucumber extract, Vitamin E, cactus flower and calendula to nurture your skin while increasing your complexion perfection". It also promises to deliver a cashmere finish and to diffuse light to give you a flawless appearance.

What did I think? I found the coverage to be on the medium to sheer side, and the shade I tried, London Fair, was a good match for my pasty, celtic skintone. I didn't really find it to be semi-matte though, and did use a powder to set it. I'd use this during the day, I think, as I'm not too convinced that it would cover bucket-of-wine rosy red cheeks all that well.

But for ease of use and portability, this is a good product for those on the go - if you're running from meeting to meeting, Magic Wand offers a contemporary take on the old-fashioned powder compact. €28 will secure you yours, and you can buy from Debenhams and larger Boots stores.
