It was quite obvious when I removed the NC20 Mineralize Satinfinish SPF 15 Foundation from the packaging. It was Orange, and when I opened to smell it, well ‘Tarts Boudoir’ sprung to mind. But as it is a make-up item it is ‘ineligible’ for a return and refund so I have contacted the seller and eBay for a refund as counterfeits should be destroyed.
Worst this is it is not like it was a bargain. £15 instead of £21 which is a typical ‘brought the wrong colour’ private sale.
Who know what hideous things it would do to my face/eyes if I had not KNOWN specifically what the colour should look like and what the foundation should smell like.
Comparing boxes (I keep mine still in the box so I had my old one to compare) the font is ‘less’ white and very very slightly thinner and a small black code is missing from the back. Its a damn good copy, if the contents where not so cheap and nasty I would not have noticed.
Well, I won’t be able to get a new one before next weekend now so I am just going to turn mine upside down and see if I can get one last face out of it.
