In Detail Nykaa All Day Matte Long Wear Liquid Foundation Review, Swatches and My Experience

Nykaa All Day Matte Foundation comes in a glass bottle which has a brand name and range name printed on the back of the foundation bottle and has all the information about the foundation at the back of the bottle.

The foundation has a black pump dispenser which is good as it reduces wastage. It has a black cap which actually doesn’t fit properly on the bottle. In fact, all the bottles of this foundation is same as I saw it on Nykaa stores.

Therefore, I will not say that it is travel friendly as the cap tends to open by itself and it can cause mess in the bag. The packaging of the foundation is average nothing which excites me.

The foundation has a faint smell which disappears after a second or two post application.

As mentioned already, I have purchased the shade 11 Mocha but when I received it, it was looking light for my skin so I thought of returning it and got the shade 12 Hazelnut in exchange. BUT when I got the shade 12 it was three tones darker than my complexion! Now, I returned that too, and than thought of going in store and getting a better match; and when I went there I swatched all the shades there which were meant for tan skin tones.

To my SURPRISE, I got to know that there was no good shade match for my NC 42 skin! I was in between the shade Mocha and Hazelnut so I bought the shade Mocha for me. The shade is not too light for me but has a neutral undertone but it sets after a minutes of applying it.

The consistency of the foundation is not too thick nor to runny it has medium consistency. The texture of the foundation is very smooth and glides on my face effortlessly. It blends on my face smoothly with beauty blender and with a foundation brush.

The finish of the foundation is demi matte as it says it’s matte but not extremely matte. I have oily skin and it is best for my skin type and also for all skin types but for extremely dry skin, skin prep is a must.

The coverage of the foundation is medium. When I want a light coverage I apply just one coat with a beauty blender and 2 pumps with a brush for more. The coverage is medium and provides a nice even skin tone in one layer. The coverage can be slightly more without looking cake-y. But, it does not provide a full coverage and you would need a concealer for any heavy skin imperfections like dark circles and dark spots.

The foundation is really good and stays for a longer period of time, say about 5 hours as I don’t go out for more than 5 hours so I can’t say but yes I didn’t felt the need of applying a compact again to freshen up my base and my foundation was intact and on place; it didn’t budge at all.

We want to ask, which is the best foundation 2021 as per you?

Cons Of Nykaa All Day Matte Foundation

  1. Not travel friendly as the cap of the bottle is loose.
  2. More shades needed. The present range of shades is very limited.
  3. Does not cover dark circles and dark spots completely.

MBF Advises

  1. Overall I love using it on everyday basis it blends easily into the skin.
  2. All skin types can use this foundation. I would definitely recommend for oily and combination skin. The smooth texture of foundation sets into nearly matte Finish.
  3. Also it does not settle into fine lines..
  4. If you have a very dry skin you can use a moisturizer so that product doesn’t cling onto dry patches.
  5. I would suggest to check out all the shades before buying out in stores.
  6. I strongly suggest nykaa must work on improving shade range because we live in a country with wide range of complexions. It is about time that every girl gets a shade match in foundations.
  7. This is not the best liquid foundation or the best matte foundation out there but surely worth a try if you’re looking for an affordable option for a daily wear matte foundation.
