Review | L'Oréal Magic Nude Liquid Powder

When I saw this product in stores a few months ago I knew I had to try it out. I'm always looking for matte foundations and this one seemed interesting going from a liquid to a powder. It was a little pricey for a drugstore foundation, $16+ dollars I believe. In the photos above the only other thing on my skin is Maybelline's Baby Skin pore primer beneath the foundation. The colour I am wearing is Nude Beige. I'll do this review on a pro/con basis:

Product Pros
♥ Matte powdered look
 Light and fluffy if you're looking for light coverage (ex. can still see my freckles)
♥ Fun to use given it does indeed go from a watery liquid to a powder
♥ Easy to match to a skin tone 
♥ You don't need to powder your face afterwards! All-in-one. 

Product Cons
♥ Not very much coverage if you want to hide spots
♥ Expensive for a drugstore brand
♥ Packaging is not very convenient, I spilled so much of this stuff

Would I repurchase this? Probably. Hard to say, I am sure I will use this more in the summer months when it's hot and I don't want to wear such a heavy foundation. I suppose it'd also be handy for quick application so I would not need to bring a powder pot/brush wherever I was going. I wasn't disappointed with this product, I am just used to more full coverage foundations.
