The Jones Road foundation is surprisingly good. Opening the tub had me a little scared due to me having extremely oily skin. I thought by the end of the day I’d be ready to fry several eggs on my face however it stayed put throughout the day. It’s a super easy application, I prefer using a brush as with hands feels a bit messy due to how slippy the product is.
It’s a light coverage almost feeling like a tinted moisturiser so I’d prefer to use it on the days where I want to do the no makeup, makeup look or just a more minimal day. It’s like good skin in a bottle. The colour match was near perfect and it sat really nicely on my skin without feeling as greasy as it looks – which is huge for an oily skin gal like me. A little also goes a really long way with this one so I loved that aspect too. With it being quite wet I thought it might be difficult to build other products on top but it was fine.

One word, obsessed. This (quite literally) ‘WTF’ formula has redefined for me how a foundation should look, feel and smell on my skin; Bobbi Brown, you’re a genius.
At a first glance, I was sceptical. I was convinced by the look of this potted, clay-like foundation that it was going to be heavy wearing, however, on application, it was anything but that. Silky-smooth and super moisturising it created the perfect base for that ‘clean girl’, your-skin-but-better look.
As much as I love the overall look and feel of this foundation, for me, it’s the smell that makes this product such a game-changer. It’s the ultimate blend of mixing wellness, spa-like aromas into your daily makeup routine. It acts as a small gesture of self-love to start your day. My only criticism is durability. To keep this gorgeous makeup look in place all day, you’ll definitely need a good setting powder or setting spray. Other than this, I can’t wait to try more of the Jonas Road range.
