Bourjois’ Healthy Mix Serum Gel Foundation has been a favourite of mine ever since it was launched a couple of years ago. In fact, it became my Holy Grail of foundations at some point, snatching to stay on the spot with Rimmel’s Match Perfection. When I heard on the blogging grapevine that Bourjois has come up with a new foundation called the Happy Light, I was excited to check it out at my local Priceline. And then I forgot that that part of the grapevine was from the UK and they get the good stuff first!

So I waited and waited. When Priceline finally stocked the Happy Light foundation, I pounced like a ninja and picked up a bottle. Since I was already there, I also picked up a bottle of the Happy Light Matte Serum Primer to try out. It’s been a few weeks and I thought it’s a good time for me to share with you what I think of the foundation and the primer.
By the way, I’m making some slight changes to the way I review base makeup like foundation and BB-goodness-knows-what-double-alphabet creams to a simple point form review in terms of shade, texture, fragrance, finish on skin, coverage and longevity. I find that it makes it easier for people to read and understand than having to go through paragraphs of descriptions. What do you think? Would you prefer it too?
