Queen Cosmetics Tinted Foundation Cream Review

About Queen Cosmetics: Queen has 80 years’ experience of providing pure, proven skin care and make-up for sensitive skin.

In fact, Queen originated the concept of hypo-allergenic – non-allergic – cosmetics in 1927. The formulae were specially devised for clients with sensitive skin by a team of dermatologists and were first manufactured and sold at a pharmacy in Queen Square, London. Today, the products are manufactured by hand at our premises in East Sussex according to the original formulations.Our formulations are as pure and gentle as possible and use as few ingredients as possible per product to reduce the likelihood of an allergic reaction. We manufacture in small batches, ensuring quality and freshness, and meaning we do not need to pack our products full of unnecessary ingredients, additives and preservatives.
Our products are free of fragrance, perfume or essential oils. Queen products have never been tested on animals. More here

It comes in a pump kind of bottle..but it does not pump out easily from it…the shade is a little darker than my skin tone and its the second palest…so only four shades to select from is a problem..this is more of a tinted moisturiser than a foundation…its very creamy and blends well..but it would give a light to medium coverage..

Pros:

1. Works well as a tinted moisturiser.
2. Perfect for dry skin as its very creamy and hydrating.
3. All products made suitable to sensitive skin.
4. Shipping is decent enough.. 4.5£
5. Works for everyday wear and comes off easily even with a normal cleanser.

Cons:

1. Only 4 shades to choose from.
2. Has parabens and cetearyl alcohol.
3. Only available online.
4. May be thick for oily skin..esp in humid climate…would not stay long.
5. Not meant for people who need heavy coverage.
6. I think it should be priced a little less.

Overall its kind of ok..does not work great as a foundation but ok as a tinted moisturiser..I like its ease of use as a daily wear…you can use it easily and remove it easily.
