Review: Korres Ginger & Vitamins Foundation

I have been taking really good care of my skin of late. Here are some posts about my skin care routine if you are interested:

Skincare routine

Updated skincare routine: Winter specific

Latest addition to my skincare: Kiehl's Vitamin C serum

Due to this, I find I don't have to use heavy or full coverage foundations anymore. Recently I started using the Korres Ginger & Vitamins Foundation in shade LF4 in the center of my face and LF5 around my mouth where I am darker and on my forehead. Using two shades sort of softly contours my face as well. If you dont have the darker problem areas like me, you can just use one shade.

I am so happy with the finish - it's not dewy or matte or shiny - just looks glowy and natural with a lovely sheen. Do I make sense?

The foundation is almost like a tinted moisturizer, will a little more coverage than a normal tinted moisturiser. But its not medium to full coverage at.

 It retails for $28. From the sephora website:


What it is:A lightweight, water-based foundation that is packed with vitamins to balance the skin.

What it does:Korres Ginger & Vitamins Foundation provides sheer to medium buildable coverage, a creamy finish, and SPF 10 UVA/UVB Broad Spectrum sun protection. This brand favorite contains ginger to tone and clarify with Antioxidant Vitamins C and E to prevent visible signs of aging.

What it is formulated WITHOUT:
- Parabens
- Sulfates
- Mineral Oils
- Petro-chemicals
- Propylene Glycols
- Ethanolomines
- GMOs
- Synthetic Dyes
- Synthetic Fragrances

I love how it's without parabens and other chemicals which I am trying to reduce in my products anyway.

Have you tried this product before? If yes, what were your experiences?

Product rave: Kiehl's Powerful-Strength Line-Reducing Concentrate

It's one the the MOST effective vitamin C serums that I have ever used, and I have used a few in the past like:

Ole Henriksen Truth Serum® Collagen Booster ($48)

Diana Yvonne Vitamin C Serum 12% ($40)

Avalon Organics Vitamin C Vitality Facial Serum ($24)

Beyond Belief Vita C+ Antioxidant Serum ($9)


I have been using he product for over a week and my skin looks brighter, plumper and glowy. This is the only new product that I have incorporated in my routine this week. It powerfully treats lines & wrinkles with 10.5% Pure Vitamin C!

This Powerful-Strength Line-Reducing Concentrate is formulated with a high concentration of 10.5% Pure Vitamin C (L-Ascorbic Acid) known for its affinity with skin and its powerful ability to improve the appearance of skin aging. With continued use over time, this treatment has a significant and progressive effect on marionette lines around the mouth and sub-orbital wrinkles in the eye area as well as other facial lines and wrinkles. In addition, skin shows a noticeable improvement in texture and radiance.

Yes, it's pricey, 1.7oz costs a steep $56, but damn it I am worth it :):)
