My Experience with NYKAA SKINgenius Sculpting & Hydrating Foundation 03 Warm Sand:
Nykaa has done a brilliant job by introducing this foundation as they are color adapting foundations and hence called as Skin genius. So starting with the shade range I feel that Nykaa should have focused more on their shade range as there are variety of Indian skin tones and 5 shades are just not enough.
The foundation has a weightless texture and a semi liquid consistency which seamlessly blends the foundation into the skin. It contains hyaluronic acid and polylift which makes it work better for sahara desert like dry skin. It has a dewy finish that adds a glow to skin and doesn’t give a patchy look for sure. I have a medium skin tone and i got my hands on 03 Warm sand. As this foundation is color adapting it adjusts to my skin within like 5-7 minutes. Since it has hyaluronic acid in it, the foundation is hydrating and feels light. It has a sheer to medium coverage which is good option if you use a foundation everyday, it gives a healthy glow to skin and feels so light like you have just applied a moisturizer to your skin. It hides light spots but if you have an extremely pigmented skin using a corrector or a concealer is recommended. I am not more of a foundation person but i really love how it works on my skin. I love more of dewy makeup than extremely matte one so the ones who feel the same surely give it a try and to beauties having combination to oily skin type will need a setting powder to avoid oil on face, I apply a compact powder or White tone powder to set the foundation under my eyes and T zone. 03 Warm sand is perfect for medium skin tone. It stays entire day without melting or creasing and that makes me a fan of this product.

If you have a medium deep skin tone and if buy this shade 03 don’t worry it will definitely adapt to your skin just give it some time to settle down. I have tried this same shade on my friends having a shade lighter and a shade deeper than my skin tone and it works.
Overall, NYKAA SKINgenius Sculpting & Hydrating Foundation is a perfect daily wear foundation. If you are confused of which foundation to go for or you are a beginner into makeup definitely give it a try. Also if you are confused of which shade to buy, try the foundation in your nearby Nykaa stores.
