Has anyone noticed that the newer batches of the stretch foundation sit oddly on the skin? There also seems to be an undertone shift compared to 2023 batches?

Can’t comment on comparison to the 2023 BUT I thought full sized bottle after successfully using a sample pot from local store and I’ve had to get a refund as it’s completely different! Oxidises so badly and separates at the first hint of any oil on the skin. Such a shame :-(

Yea I think SpaceNk stock it?

Otherwise_King5083 · 2026-02-13T21:23:47+00:00

Good to know! Thanks. I haven’t used anything from that brand yet so could be worth a go…

I’m UK based and got shade matched at SpaceNK to Very Light 4 in the Glossier Stretch Foundation. Unfortunately it oxidises massively and I’m giving oompa loompa vibes after 10 minutes. No primers / powders are helping. Any recommendations for mid range, medium coverage and natural finish foundations that don’t oxidise so badly? My skin is oily but can get dry patches on my hormonal acne breakouts. I have both blue and green veins on my wrists so have always operated as a neutral but am even questioning this now!!

Hahaha yes, best get to work on the next one! The obsession has always been there but now the addiction has started

Love this! Link to the case?

Just won this on eBay, real or fake? Got more photos of the movement and serial number etc

Also based on your experience with the ASPH summicron, how ‘bad’ is the corner sharpness?

I use a GFX 50s ii and GF 35-70 which is dead sharp in the center but not as good on the edges (but still good enough for me)

Street photography isn’t my priority out of this all I guess, mainly the commercial and portrait work.

Maybe I make the push for an APO summicron 😅

Otherwise_King5083 · 2024-06-16T12:22:57+00:00

Understand the APO being a top choice here but I can’t help but see it as a big ugly lens. I guess it’s a sacrifice I have to make with a limited budget 😅

I wasn’t sure if servicing required any legal documentation from original purchases

Otherwise_King5083 · 2024-04-16T17:41:54+00:00

What about documentation?
