Gigi Hadid's foundation?!

What do you do when you come across a post that tells you what 'high street' foundation Gigi Hadid wore to the AMA's? If you have any sense you would think she... a) probably had loads of high end stuff to compliment it, or, b) wore it, but has heavenly skin that doesn't warrant the need for coverage. BUT, if you're me, you definitely ran (drove) to the nearest boots and threw your money at the cashier. I'm talking about Maybelline Fit Me Matte and Poreless Foundation (£5.99). This is a light - medium coverage foundation, definitely not an "out out" - cakey saturday night type contender. I found it suitable for oily skin as it didn't appear to worsen my t - zone area, but it disappeared quickly; off my nose particularly. It's a thin consistency so it's easily buildable, but I found myself having to cover red spots with more concealer. Yes, it's nice if you have decent skin anyway and just want a dusting of foundation, but if you have problematic skin I wouldn't recommend it.
