This is the Fit me Foundation in #355 by Maybelline New York with a SPF of 18. (This is the darkest shade in the Fit Me collection)
This is the Fit Me Foundation against my skin, my face has an orange undertone so the foundation turned out to be a perfect match!
My Skin Type: Combination: Dry around the mouth, Very Oily on my forehead and around my T-Zone.
My Opinion:
Marketing Style:
Maybelline marketed a product that was potentially supposed to " Fit" people of every race and color that fit into the three categories of light, medium and deep/ dark. In my opinion Maybelline hyped up their product. If my skin color is considered the deepest or darkest than that isn't the full spectrum of colors which is marketed to the people. In the future I hope that the Fit Me Foundation adds on to their line more colors for darker women ( and men ;) ).
The Product:
When reading the reviews on this product I read that many women didn't believe that the product gave full coverage and that the fact that the style of bottle not having a pump, wasted a lot of the product. Fit Me Foundation is a light to medium coverage foundation, it was made to allow your skin to breath and look light and fresh. Although this Foundation can be built up to create a full coverage look it starts to look cakey after a certain point. The fact that the bottle does not have a pump is fusterating but if the bottle is turned over while the cap is on and then tapped lightly when the cap is removed you can dip your brush into the cap and get a reasonable amount of foundation on your brush which helps not waste product.
On me this foundation fits almost perfectly due to the fact that it and my skin both have an orange undertone, the con about this foundation is that it is very liquidy and can make your face VERY oily!
I continue to purchase this foundation because it is my exact skin color but because my skin is very oily I do often have to blot and retouch my makeup but for the coverage this foundation gives it is worth it!
Sometimes when I do not want to go throught the process of retouching my makeup I use the Fit Me Powder also in # 355 which gives light coverage but gives a nice look as well.

I am aware that this foundation has been out on shelves for a good amount of time but before you run out and buy this product, try to look and find the sample sheet with the different skin groups and find your exact color.
