First Impression : Loreal Infallible 24hr Matte Foundation


When Make up Youtuber LustreLux did a video on this foundation I knew I wanted to try it for myself , she had nothing but good words to say about the foundation . Definitely more of a dewy foundation lover but its nice to look nice and matte on a night out or if you have oily skin . I would have normal but dehydrated skin . I got the lightest shade which is 01 Porcelain which you can see by the pictures is still not light enough . I also bought the mattifying primer that goes with the foundation . I applied the Infallible primer before hand to give the foundation a fair review with its matching primer .A foundation saying it last 24hr is a pretty brave statement (I couldn't imagine needing a foundation to last that long in the first place) .

    No Foundation on (excuse my bed hair & dry skin)

Love the texture of this foundation far thicker in texture then my usual lightweight foundations . I find a little goes quite a long way too . The coverage would be medium to full coverage. I could see it working well on a night out .I have been out on a walk and doing other bits and bobs and it looks exactly the way it did when I applied it , no complaints so far. Still matte.

                                                                10 hours After Applying
Staying on pretty well . My red cheeks are still covered as well as uneven pigmentation on my face .

                                                                15 hours After Applying
Notice that has come off around my jawline area slightly . Still matte but little blotchy . I did only apply a little bit of this foundation for a natural everyday look . If I was going out I would apply more of it . My red cheeks are more visible now. So its not lasting 24hr as it says .

My first opinion on this foundation is really good it is definitely matte like it says it is . Good coverage . This would be a nice foundation for a night out and would photograph without any flash back . If you have oily skin you should give it a go , since I don't have oily skin I don't get to try it to its full potential  . Powder isn't needed over the top of it but if your very oily you could still powder . You could nearly get away with just wearing this foundation without concealer because of how pigmented it is. I would repurchase based on my frist impression , i'll try it out properly over the next few weeks and you will probably hear me mentioning it again . Didn't last as long as I thought but it would last a decent amount of time .

Loreal True Match Foundation - First Impression


 
 
New foundation , YAY ! Decided to try out LOREAL Paris true match foundation after hearing Lauren Curtis rave about it for years . I had the worst foundation on today , I squeezed the last of a few of my foundations out mixed them together and used it on my face . To be honest I would have been better off wearing no foundation because through out the day the foundation started to get really patchy. I went into boots and one of the girls working there removed all my make up and apply this foundation . Surprisingly this foundation is a lighter coverage then I thought it would be , very buildable but far more natural then I thought . I am the lightest colour, I am really pale at the moment , ghost life . I really like the look of this foundation so far its gives a nice even flawless looking coverage , its a lot more matte then foundations I would usually wear but its not too matte where your skin look dull . I have some dry skin around my nose that the foundation set on top of but that can be sorted out with some exfoliator . So far so good , I see how it gets on throughtout the day .

Just Applied Pictures


 

*I applied primer beforehand and have blush on

10 hours later

To be honest this foundation isn't as long wearing as I thought but I did have a very light layer of it on . It as stuck to the dry patches of my skin but I hope with a bit of exfoliation and moisturiser the next time I wear it it doesn't do this . Coverage stayed very even though throughout the day still heading my rosy cheeks at the end of the day . 
 
 
Final Verdict : Usually don't go for a more matte finish foundation but I like the coverage , finish and the natural look of this foundation . Doesn't last as long as I was hoping although I did  only apply one layer of it , if you were to build it up it might stay on longer . It will be interesting to try it some night I go out to see how it last . I will probably have a review on it in the coming weeks with extra details but so far it seems quite good  ,not amazing but not a total disaster .
