Dior Airflash + Sonia Kashuk
Nov 6, 2008

So. Many of you voted and the clear winner in my poll was Airflash. I listened and I was liking it pretty okay.
Until I decided to apply it with the Sonia Kashuk blending sponge.
They recommend you apply Airflash with a kabuki brush and when you do that it goes on smooth and gives good coverage. But I hated the extra work to get it into every nook and cranny of my face, especially the sides of my nose and my inner eye.
This thing makes all of that headache a thing of the past. I bought it on a whim on vacation in Destin because it was funky looking and I haven't regretted it since. It gives me all of the control and precision I was missing with the kabuki brush.
So in case you've been wondering whether this thing is worth the $8.99 given that you could buy a bag of disposable sponges for much less, the answer is totally "yes." It even takes to washing really well, but I'm thinking of buying another one so I can let it really dry well when I clean it.

I'm always curious to see how other foundations work, but I'm always scared to try something different because of how my skin may react. What's your skin type? This stuff looks pretty awesome.
I have normal/combination skin (dry on my cheeks and oily in my T zone). This stuff feels pretty light on, but you do need to set it with a powder so it doesn't bleed onto your clothes. They'll totally do your whole face up in it at the Dior counter so you can try it out for a day and decide.
I've been wanting to try this too. And that's a great tip about going to the Dior counter to try it out - why didn't I think of that? lol
Going to the counters to try things out for the day was so scary to me when I was younger because I thought they'd figure I wasn't rich and be rude to me. But that just hasn't ever been the case. In fact, they always give me their card so I can try to go back to them specifically if I liked working with them.
Thanks for the tip sweetie, Im always nervous about trying new foundation to..so I stick with the same crap that doesnt do much for me.
That's such a shame. Don't hide your beautiful skin under something it doesn't like!
