Fenty Beauty Pro Filt’r Soft Matte Longwear Foundation in 100

I wanted to share quick swatches of Fenty Beauty Pro Filt’r Soft Matte Longwear Foundation in 100, 150, and 220. I also bought the Match Stix Matte in Ivory. The photo above was taken in indirect natural light in my lanai on a cloudy day in the afternoon (around 4pm EST). I blended out the bottom part of each swatch and left an unblended dot at the top.

Fenty Beauty Pro Filt’r Soft Matte Longwear Foundation in 100 looks like it might be a good match for my neck and chest. My arms and hands are the darkest they’ve ever currently been thanks to all the time I’m spending outside every day with the dogs. Fenty Beauty Match Stix Matte in Ivory is supposed to be a concealer and it’s their lightest warm / neutral shade. It looks like it’s slightly too deep / too yellow for me.

Fenty Beauty Pro Filt’r Soft Matte Longwear Foundation has a very, very matte finish. It also seems to dry down quickly. I think this is a foundation that will require you to break your face into quarters and you’ll want to apply it and blend it out one section at a time. It might also benefit from mixing it with a primer or facial oil. Since it just arrived in the mail today, I don’t know what oil would be best. I’m going to try it with my First Aid Beauty Coconut Smoothie Primer soon.

Fenty Beauty Pro Filt’r Soft Matte Longwear Foundation launched with 40 different foundation shades. They offer from the palest to the deepest of skintones. I’m impressed with their range! I just wish they had a more sheer / light hydrating finish foundation.

  1. The 100 shade looks pretty good on your hand and it might be good for me, as I am that pale. You don’t really get a winter in Florida, do you? Otherwise, that shade might suit you then.
    Thanks for the quick review.

    1. I think the shade on my hand looks pretty good. I’m going to try to do a wear test video with it. I mixed it with vitamin E and made it sheer, so that works better for my dry skin.

  2. I’m so glad you showed how those shades look on your hand and can’t wait to see how it wears on you.

  3. When I heard that there was going to be 40 shades, I thought of you right away and wondered if they would have the fairest shade for you.

    You’ll do a follow up after a test wear, I hope. I’m curious to know your comments in these.

  4. Thanks for reviewing love! I was impressed with their foundation shade range too, but I am happy to see it on you of course because you can tell it’s a porcelain neutral-the Matchstix Matte I thought may be a bit yellow-but I do like the idea of the Matchstix I think it’s fun-so I’d like to try one of the shimmer shades with color-in the highlighters I saw a few pretty shades but they may be a bit to shimmery for me-but with the right brush and a light tough you can do a lot I find. Yes, the foundation does look super matte-I loved your idea for application-doing it in quarters-and mixing it-one that you could do it with is the Kevyn Aucoin sensual skin primer (it would be amazing on your skin, it’s really hydrating and lovely-it also has a tray on the top for mixing- so you press down and product dispenses out of a small circle-so I use it just as a primer but also to mix a product like sensual skin enhancer(it’s super concentrated so you can create the coverage you want) but I also use it to mix with a product if I need a little more moisture since my skin is much more combination than it used to be-How is the First Aid Beauty Primer? Do you think it would be one more for normal to dry or would it work for combo/combo to oily? I’m running out of my Hourglass Mineral Veil(which is always a constant go-to) but I was thinking of trying something new as well…Thanks love. ..Just so very glad that you and your fam are home -! xoxoxo <3 <3 <3 Hope were/are able to rest well and recuperate and feel a little bit of normalcy
