Maybelline Fit me Matte + Poreless Foundation in 330 Toffee Caramel: Review, Swatches
Hiiiiii 🙂
When Fit me range got launched In India I squealed, hearing the news my bestie who is in abroad squealed and other I am sure she waiting to pounce on the collection. See thats how much importance the FIT ME collection has. If you have read my experience with concealer ( Review here) you guys know how much I love it, today it’s the turn of Maybelline Fit me Matte + Poreless Foundation .
Price: Rs 525/- for 30ml
Claims: This foundation gives you a natural and flawless complexion from every angle for skin that shows its fabulous best!
Here’s why you’ll love it:
– Its 25% anti-shine perlite + micro blurring powders, make visible pores and shine disappear, getting you the perfect selfie-ready look.
– It has a poreless finish to cover up your blemishes.
– Matte finish foundation erases pores.
– Shade range covers a wide spectrum of skin shades
My experience with Maybelline Fit me Matte + Poreless Foundation:
Packaging: It comes in glass bottle with a black cap with FIT Me written on the cap. It would have been very convenient if it came with the pump. Tilting the bottle getting the product out becomes tedious job at time, not to mention leading to product wastage. But looking at the price I am not complaining.
Texture: Maybelline Fit me Matte + Poreless Foundation has a very light texture, not too thick, not too runny and it blends like dream. The light weight texture feels like nothing on the face.
Shade : My reason for picking up the darkest shade without much thought: 1. Yellow toned foundation 2. I can make it lighter by adding something, its difficult to brew a darker shade =)). As I mentioned 330 Toffee Caramel has yellow tones to it and it works fine for my Dusky tone, it’s a tad bit darker but still works. I mix this with the other BB cream I have and it’s been wonderful. However deeper skin tones again have no hope 🙁
Performance : All that claims of Matte? Poreless? Foundation for Normal to oily skin? 25% anti-shine perlite( Say What!!! In short no shine) Now let’s break break break break it down. ( What up superwoman reference. )
As I mentioned earlier it feels like there is nothing on the face, once I have blended the foundation. It is medium to buildable coverage foundation, which I love. It can hide darkspots, blemishes. The foundation does give me a matte finish. It does give a smooth finish thus giving the Poreless effect. Now I am in a coastal place where the humidity is something constantly present. I managed to get a matte face for about 4+ hours, and then the face turned dewy but not oily. All in all the foundation stays on my face about 6-7 hours. All these minus primer and powder on top. The performance prolongs and is even better with primer/powder. So it is perfect for Normal to oily/combination skin. The foundation has not broken me out in the last three week of use.
Last week while plucking my eyebrows I had plucked some skin (Ouch I know! ) so that area was a little dry. This foundation did seem to get stuck on it. So for dry skinned girls well moisturized face is must. But then again they have specially mentioned that Foundation is suitable for Normal to Oily skin.
Pros:
Affordable, very light texture, Medium to full coverage, blends well, stays for 6+ hours, perfect for oily skin, gives a natural look,
Cons:
No pump packaging, dry skin girls needs to moiturizer thouroughly
Last words:
It’s quite hard to find a drugstore foundation which is affordable, giving that natural no makeup look, which keeps face matte for long time, which suits oily skin and
apt for daily use. Maybelline Fit me Matte + Poreless Foundation gives me that and I will be repurchasing this 100%. There are 6 shades available and I believe the
second darkest shade has pink undertone. So if you get a match I say go for it. I really love using this and one of the wonderful products I have used till now. It
truly Fits me. Recommended.
Have you tried this? Are you excited for this?
Live life to the fullest

You are soo right Gemma. Great products <3 Thanks for the visit 🙂
well reviewed and nice pictures…. I guess I will have to check out the last 2 shades to find out which suits me better 🙂
Thanks Jennifer 🙂 Yeah, better to swatch when it comes to foundation 🙂
Great Review!!! I didn’t pick up the foundation as I have dry skin. But I have yet to try their concealer that I bought. The shade range is disappointing though.
My Recent Post: Chambor Flowing Lipstick -Fig Rose Review
Thanks. You did a good thing. Concelaer is creamy so it should fare well. Shade selection is a bummer, big time .
This is clearly not for dry skin girls like me. I own many foundations which do that and I hate that look. The original fit me is better at this but they did not launch it in India. Great review!
Yes Ankita, its definitely not. Is it. Thanks 🙂
YEs Swathi I have the original one. I love it. It’s dewy and hydrating. 🙂
Good to hear the formula is such a perfect match for your skin! A few years back I tried the original Fit Me formula and I remember quite liking it.
Its seriously so hard to find a good foundation. This seems to have impressed the most 🙂
I do have a combination skin and I think this will suit me on summer time when skin gets so oily. During winter I struggle with dryness 🙁 Maybelline has really some affordable good products for us 🙂 Nice review…
Yeah, it applies fine but it will get stuck on dry parts. Yup I think it will fare better during summer . Seriously, they have come out Lip gradation thing now 🙂
I already love the old formula and this seems like perfect for oily skins. Nice review.
GlamupGirls
Yeah Zubaida, even in the extreme humid weather it doesn’t move around. Thanks 🙂
I’ve been looking at these but wasn’t sure if I should get it or not. Thanks for the review!

Glad you found this review helpful 🙂
This is such a raved product. Sadly it is not suitable for dry skin 🙁 Great review swathi.
You are right, finally it make sense to me. I guess there is another version for dry skin abroad not sure. Thanks 🙂
Wow nice clicks Swathi! Sounds like a real great foundi! <3
Thanks Anurima.Yeah it is for me and my pocket is also happy 🙂
good to know, I will take it
Hope you enjoy this as much as I do 🙂
Looking at your excitement for this range I am sure this one’s a great range! I have oily skin and would like to try this 🙂
Do try Najmun, hope you enjoy this as much I do and also a shade match 😛
Wow, this shade is a really good match for you. I need to try it out.

Thanks Paola 🙂 <3
This sounds nice. I checked out the concealers from this range, unfortunately the shades were too light for my dusky skin tone. Hope it’s not the same with the foundation.
Yeah concealers are way too light. The one I have is from US, I dont know what i’ll do when it gets over. Foundation, this is the darkest one available.
I always wanted to try a foundation, I’ll check this out 🙂
ARedLip&Love
Sure do Tash 🙂
They took so long to launch this product in the Indian markets. I had tried it two years ago when on holiday and had absolutely loved the finish. But I didn’t purchase it because I just didn’t need it then. Last month I waited for this to launch and couldn’t find it so went with my usual revlon. But this is definitely a great bet especially on budget. Lovely review, I really love how you write……’its difficult to brew a darker shade’ – true that, Swathi 🙂
Oh is it. Arre it reached Nilgiri and Romantic first.. MNY reaches faster thier than malls. I wanted to try Revlon, not anymore. It’s allready priced nicely I am sure on sales we can find it at lesser price. Thanks sooooo much, means a lot 🙂
This is a genius product ! 😉

No doubt 😀
I wanted to try this foundation but I think I should wait for winters to end. Maybelline needs to work on shades.
Yeah. Yeah they need, but the lack of shade selection is every Indian drugstore brand story :/
This sounds so good! And perfect for my skin! I really hope it comes to the UK 🙂 xx
Jasmine Talks Beauty
I hope the same, this really is a good product. Thanks for the visit 🙂
I like this foundation a lot. good review!

Thanks Johanna, now I know why 🙂
I m in no mood to buy any foundation I hardly use bt may go for this one when I decide to buy…
Glad the price is not too high.. well reviewed
Thanks Natasha. I could not hold myself back when I saw this shade, I mean it’s hard to find yellow toned foundation at this price 🙂
Great. Will surely try this soon 🙂
Hope you like it as much as I do 🙂
This seem to be a wonderful foundation but I will skip it for now due to my dry skin in winters, will try it out in Indian summers when my skin is more on the combination oily side
Yeah, this will be perfect then 🙂
This looks nice but I prefer foundations with pump.
Pump makes life easier, no wonder you prefer that not to mention a lot less messier too 🙂
yes Unlike Lakme weightless mousse fit me has pretty good colour variation.Something for everybody..Spot on review
Yeah I did check out Lakme, I could not see much difference. In comparison to that this is much better. Thanks Anu 🙂
That’s a nice one..would love to try it… 🙂
Do check out the shades 🙂
I wish that this foundation was displayed in Spain, I’ve been seing lately lots of people loving it and as a huge matte foundation lover and a combination to oily kind of girl this sounds amazing to me! I hope it comes to Spain soon.
I hope you have a great day xx

I hope the same Selena. I dont know why brands do that, introduce a great product but not everywhere. Thanks for the visit 🙂
I was thinking of getting this but doesn’t find the right shade foundation. Thanks for the review dear!
Ahh you did a good thing. Unless you find a match buying foundation is really useless, atleast it should come near. Glad you found this review helpful 🙂
Hope to try this very soon!!!
Hope you get a shade match <3 🙂
Need to check this out. Great review 🙂
Thanks Sonali <3
I’m yet to try out this range. Can’t find a suitable shade for my skin tone 🙁
🙁 Why do we get only 5-6 shades in foundation..
Looks like very good drugstore foundation
Yeah Krithi 🙂
Oh I want to get one for me now but I need to check the shades first 🙂
I am pretty sure you will get a match 🙂
I have heard very good things about shade range they’re offering. Nice review Swathi 🙂
Thanks Priyanka 🙂
Wow, that seems like a perfect shade match for you! I need to pick this up and test it, I’ve been hearing great things about it.

A tad bit darker but it works. It is nice, hope you get a shade 🙂
I am still soooo confused regarding this foundation. I have combination oily skin but I dont want anything that sticks to the Eczema areasss. What do I doooo. Nice review by the way 🙂
Ahh I understand. I wouldn’t buy this, I mean it littarly got stuck to that dried skin. Though some of the dry skin ladies have loved this I guess the dry skin and dried skin due to Eczema or some rash is different.
Thanks Harman 🙂
I really loved this one as well .. Specially cause of the weightless no-makeup look it helps me achieve 🙂
Yes I have read your review too. Exactly, perfect for no makeup, makeup look 😉
This one is really good!! Good review too!!
Thanks Urvi <3
Great that you have found your fit with Maybelline’s all new range 🙂 , I am also using the same foundation in warm nude, I like it too 🙂
Love the natural look it gives 🙂
This sounds like a good product!

I love it 🙂
I’m yet to try this range. Just worried about my shade match.
I understand. Try it at the counter, online swatches can be misleading 🙂 Thanks for the visit
This is a great foundation!! Nicely reviewed, Swathi!!
Thanks Rakhshanda 🙂
I must say, Maybelline offers very promising products at very reasonable prices. I am currently using Maybelline superstay better skin foundation and I am super impressed with the coverage and velvety texture.
Thanks!
Hey nice post, could you please suggest me correct shade i have 2 tone lighter than dusky. I will purchase it online so little confused
Hey I found 322Warm Honey lighter to my Dusky skintone. I think that would go well with you.
Nicely Reviewed… gonna try it out.
Thanks Vidya 🙂
I will try this for my combination skin next. Let see how it will fare to it.
Sure do 🙂
Have been using this foundation for quite a while now. Great for oily skin.
Yeah. lasts for a very long time 🙂
