Product Review: Graftobian HD Creme Foundation Palette

I recently ordered the Graftobian 18 shade creme foundation palette to add to my makeup kit (so that I can alternate from the airbrush) and I can't say enough about it! This foundation is AMAZING: glides on like butter, works great with a cosmetic wedge or brush AND you don't need concealer. I did a photoshoot last weekend with a young lady who had deep acne scars and large pores. I applied Urban Decays complexion primer to her face with a sponge wedge and the Graftobian foundation over it and in one swoop, she got concealing of the scars and full foundation coverage. I couldn't believe it! (I will post pics when the photographer sends them to me). This foundation is also great because after you apply it, you can just leave it for a "dewy" look or buff some loose finishing powder on top for a very matte finish. Here is a photo of myself with the foundation and no finishing powder:

CONS: The only "bad" thing I can say about this foundation is that the palette is much smaller than I thought it was going to be and you can't purchase individual palette refills for it.

PROS: Eliminates the need for conceals and covers all in one. Provides medium to full coverage, compact carrying in your makeup kit. So easy to blend and easy to mix with other shades or moisturizer.

I purchased my palette from CameraReadyCosmetics.com for about $65 and got express shipping for $8. Graftobian.com sells this palette but I believe their shipping is more expensive. Instead of the 18 shade palette, you can get a 5 shade palette for about $22. All palettes come in Cool, Neutral and Warm. I have the warm palette.

Definitely gets 5 stars in my book!
