Alima Pure Pressed Foundation with Rosehip Antioxidant Complex Refill - Pressed Powder- Mineral Powder Foundation | Cardamom

Not only was the color not a good match the powder was much looser than I prefer for my pressed powder and the sponge than came with it was too thin.

I absolutely LOVE this foundation! I had formerly used Mary Kay creme to powder foundation for about 20 years, but after reading about how MK uses toxic ingredients in their make up, I was looking for something that had safe/non-toxic ingredients. I first tried Benecos foundation--very disappointed with that--it was very difficult to apply--didn't go on smoothly at all, kind of blotchy in its application. This foundation is VERY similar to the application of Mary Kay's creme to powder foundation. And I appreciate that they provide an applicator with your purchase (which is similar in texture to the MK foundation applicator, unlike a lot of other foundations you'll buy which don't include an applicator). I have olive complexion, and the Chestnut color matches my skin perfectly, and goes on really nice. I also really like the foundation case and appreciate the nice packaging/shipping with tissue paper. You can tell this is a company that cares about making a good impression when they ship a package.

This is a great foundation powder, although a bit too heavy for me at 55 years old. Coverage is amazing but it goes on just a little thick for my preference. I love the color, the ingredients and the company! I do recommend if you are looking for thicker, fuller coverage.

I have ordered this foundation twice now (once from Alima directly, since the shade I needed wasn't on Amazon at the time. The refill is super easy to change.I have never been more impressed with a natural foundation. It has easily buildable coverage. It also smells amazing, unlike most other makeup products. My sensitive, acne prone skin doesn't have bad reactions to it at all and nothing else I've ever tried has matched my skin tone this closely. Instead of people commenting on how good my "makeup" looks, they say how flawless my SKIN looks. After I remove it, my skin looks great! Not broken out, dried out or irritated. Will be loyal to Alima unless they shut down or change their products for the worse.

Nice smell and sheer coverage. I like the original loose powder Alima foundation better.

Shade descriptions are incorrect. I tried warm 6 sample of satin powder and it was a perfect match. The alimapure website mentioned that for warm 6 of satin powder, coriander shade of pressed foundation is a matching shade. Turns out sandstone, a shade deeper than coriander, is a good match for my skin tone. I tend to have dry irritated eyes after using common name brands but I haven't had any discomfort yet with alimapure. It proves to be natural and skin care friendly. So far I really like this foundation and would definitely recommend to others.

Alima pure foundation is my favorite. They are great for combination and acne prone skin. Sometimes when I'm really tired I even sleep with it and have not experienced any reaction. I love the natural finish it gives while also hiding imperfections. It is not a full coverage foundation but easily gives a medium coverage, also one might need a touch up if you are out the whole day. But they have good ingredients and good for skin which is what I was looking for. Overall a great product and I highly recommend it!

I like I can layer. But the color was a bit off on my face. I’ll probably give it to my daughter in law or mom since it’s lighter than I thought.I will try another color.Also I am not a huge fan of powder since it rubs off easy.
