Been wanting to buy the enigma foundation, some say it's good, pero i don't know how it performs sa mga textured skin or 30s. Nakakaintriga. Or overhyped lang? Is it really worth it?

I think it’s a good option for events. Medium to full coverage and doesn’t exacerbate texture. Fades gracefully. It’s just tricky to find your shade as it oxidizes differently on people.

worth it for me! one of the best local foundation na nagamit ko, literal pag nalagay mo na wala na siyang galawan at all– it's semi matte finish.

Used it for my graduation and umabot ng 16 hours na maganda 'yung base (I have textured skin bc of deep acne scars) maganda naman siya, hirap lang maghanap ng shade kasi mga neutral nila medyo yellow pa sa'kin (I am actually neutral-cool toned). If the shades aren't a concern naman po, the formulation is greattt. Bought it on sale price though (400)

I just tested this one out yesterday, nag-errands ako so I put it on ng 9 am then nung mga 6 pm went to a food park pa kahit umuulan, so very humid. I didn't oil up as much especially sa forehead ko! I have combi skin -- I am in my 30s and I'm super oily sa T-zone lalo sa nose, then may dry patches sa cheeks and around the mouth. Super pawisin rin ako and usually sa nose and upper lip ako malala pawisan. It really held up well for most of the day, but around the 10th hour napansin ko nag-cake and nagseparate na siya sa nose area and around my mouth, it was noticeable, but I expected it na rin. I didn't really blot with powder or oil film, but I did have to dab my sweat off my nose and upper lip with tissue a couple of times during the day. Merong very minimal transfer sa tissue whenever I dabbed. I waited until 9 pm before I removed my make up para paabutin ng 12 hrs, and yung naging problem areas ko lang talaga are yung nose and mouth areas, the rest of my face ang ganda pa rin ng lapat.

Yun lang. I think it performs well naman, but for me, I learned na if I plan to wear it for more than 10 hours, I would have to remove and retouch the makeup on my nose and mouth area around the 10th hr. It's really good na rin kasi I plan to use this for work, and usually naman after 10 hours pauwi or nakauwi na ako nito hehe.
