![]() Actually, it’s been over a year since I stepped foot into a convenience store to pick up makeup period! It’s not because I don’t like drugstore makeup but has a lot to do with me cutting back on how much I spent on makeup though somehow I still managed to make VIB Rouge. ![]() The closest I have found as mentioned above is Estee Lauder Double Wear.In full disclosure, it’s been a while since I’ve tried a drug store foundation. So far I have not found a foundation to beat my Revlon Colourstay. ![]() However in the winter I much prefer a more matt finish and will be returning to my Revlon Colourstay when my tan fades out. This is my go to foundation for the summer to match my skin tone. No signs of L’oreal claims of improving skin quality.Great if you are looking for colour to match your skin tone as there is a huge variety of shades.I absolutely love the packaging for this, it is a great size for travelling and the pump makes it so much easier to use and is very hygienic. For everyday wear this foundation works well, however if I was going for a night out/wedding/all day event I would much prefer my Revlon Colourstay Foundation. I have combination skin so this foundation is more manageable when it comes to longevity, however someone with really oily skin then this foundation may not work for you. Funny enough I do not mind this for the summer as it gives of a dewier look. The longevity of this foundation is not the best after a few hours I do notice a little fading and the T-zone is a little shiny, nothing too bad. In regards of L’oreal stating it can improve your skin quality well I did not notice any difference! If you prefer an extra dewy look than skip the powder part. I apply this foundation with my Real Techniques Stippling Brush, It definitely gives of a natural look, yet covers up my blemishes. After primer and powder it finishes of as a semi-matt look, I much prefer this than complete matt as I love the glowing dewy look for summer. It is also super blendable and matches my skin magically. It is a thin formula which makes it easy to buff and blend and feels very light on the skin. This foundation I would say is a medium coverage. It matches perfectly for my tanned summer skin! One pump of foundation However L’oreal has a neutral shade with an equal balance of cool and warm shades in the formula. Maybe that’s why I haven’t found my perfect shade as most brands have either cool or warm shades. Some people may claim I would be more of a warm undertone, but I find these appear too dark and orangey on my face. Loreal has an online app where you can find your colour match. I think many people would find their colour match here as they split there foundations in regards to under tones,which are cool, neutral and warm. In 2 weeks skin will look healthier and more even due to the micro minerals in the product.Now available in 22 skin-true shades across warm, neutral and cool, it matches more than any other.**ĩ7%* of UK skin tones matched. “ True Match super-blendable foundation perfectly matches the colour and texture of your skin. Purchased this from Superdrug for only £9.99. Surely I would find my colour match?! Guess what, I did!! :D. Apart from the colour I absolutely love this foundation, the coverage and staying power is fantastic but unfortunately it’s a no no for a colour match.Īfter this I looked at high street brands, I noticed L’oreal True Match foundation has a huge variety of colours 22 to be precise, these range from pale, tanned to dark shades. Next, Estee Lauder double wear, I have trailed and error 4 shades of this foundation yet they are either too dark, light or not the right undertones. Shades 40 and 42 looked way to orange on my skin, shade 41 was a good match, however I could not handle the paint smell and it gave me a headache. I picked up studio fix fluid samples from Mac in shades NC40,41 and 42. I started my hunt with high end brands such as Mac, and Estee Lauder. I usually use Revlon Colour Stay in shade natural tan, but this looking slightly grey on my skin at the moment. As us ladies know, when it becomes hot, we get a tan which is great but we also encounter the dilemma of our foundation no longer matching our new tanned skin! This was myself a few weeks ago after coming back from Morocco I definitely needed a new foundation. Hey everyone, I hope you’re all enjoying this BEAUTIFUL hot weather.
