ooooh... I'm excited for you!
The HD primer is great because it feels so light (like lotion) and it works really well with F&B

I am totally acne prone... I get those really bad cystic ones that are deep and hurt and often scar. Finding the MUFE F&B has been such a blessing because before that, I could only really use mineral foundations. I don't have expereince with any other of their foundation formulations but I also use their Velvet pressed powder and also no problems there for me...
as always, best to do testers before committing

I tend to have blackheads easily and the F&B didnt make any to this day
It's 70% made of water, I guess it helps!

Great swatches, Willa!

Thanks, that's good to know. It's just that I feel like I've been getting clogged pored with the F&B, but I'm also not sure if it's because I'm not removing the makeup properly. I mean, I love how it's pretty much undetectable, but that makes it hard to remove, and that could be why. (how does everyone here remove their F&B or just their makeup in general, btw?)
It's just odd, I used #34 in the summer, and I didn't have any problems with acne. Then I realized I needed to get #32 for the winter, and that was when I started getting the clogging problems. Not cystic acne, but annoying zits and bumps that keep coming back. I also found the texture of 32 the different from 34... it was more watery.... It that normal or do you think the bottle was, old or something?

So I love that MUFE doesn't do samples.
Maybe its just my MUFE.
The girl who always pretends to work at MUFE but she doesn't, came up to me today and I asked for a sample to take home to my mom - I do freelance and Im looking to get her a new foundation, so I brought in her MAC face and body container and was doing some swatches on my arm to find the right match, so I find it, and then ask for a sample to take to her so she can try it out - she tells me they dont do samples.
Maybe this is common practice for MUFE but im not really impressed by that policy.

Well, F&B is made with waterproofness in mind. I was also concerned about how I was going to do it take it off because i've never used waterproof make -up before
These days we demand so much of our makeup... that it be waterproof, budge-proof, stays colour-true etc... the formulations have gotten to be so high tech, I think make-up removing and skin cleansing have to be a 2 step process
I knew Estee Lauder made some super crazy stay all day foundation "Double Wear Stay in Place Make-up" so I assume they must have some antidote to take it off so I wandered over to their counter and found "Take It Away Total Makeup Remover"... I love it... feels like lotion, paper towel or rinse off... made specifically for their waterproof products
I think could use any skin cleanser after the make-up is removed but I just stick to Estee Lauder's cuz a little foams like crazy and i always end up getting them in the department store promos bonuses I don't think I ever need to ever buy cleanser again
oh, and i use a $2 facial brush for for cleansing
here's a link to another about finding super-duper make-up removers/cleansers

I dunno... I just took a look at my #18 & #32 and #18 (darker) is more solid... and #32 (lighter) is more liquidy but both need to be shaken up before using anyways so I don't think it makes a difference... maybe darker colours have more pigment so the seem slightly more solid of a gel? Just a guess

wierd... wow blindpassion, you are really not having any luck with you MUFE counter . I feel so bad for you. I can only imagine how frustrating this is for you
I don't know if it's any condolence, but Estee Lauder at Sears Pacific Centre Vancouver also does not do foundation samples.
I love that Estee Lauder desk, they give me lots of love whenever I visit them & I find them super helpful with everything else that I need there but when I asked for foundation samples... They just don't do it? oh well

I really need to email the rep for MUFE in the west and let her know whats up.
I did get to buy MUFE #9 e/s which I lovvveee.

Thats weird, I went to the MUFE counter @ Sephora and since they didn't have my foundation color, they gave me a sample in sephora's sample jar.
Maybe its different at the actual MUFE store/counter. IDK

Awww, blindpassion def needs more love from MUFE. It's so sucky to love a product line but get no service or love back from the company for being an eager customer?!?!
I got a free MUFE cosmetic bag when I bought a foundation & HD brush.

My MUFE counters don't give samples either, but Sephora does. Someone mentioned EL, mine gave me tons of samples.
