Last week this foundation made into my favourites and I told you how much I liked it and that I would do a full on review.
So here we go!!
Loreal says: A featherlight foundation,feels as light and fresh as water. Instantly fuses with skin, blending seamlessly to leave a silky, second skin effect
Lets begin with the feel and coverage of this foundation as these are the main things that make this foundation great. It has a very light but slightly oily feel to it making this foundation really easy to blend, I used my fingers as I think its the best method to work this foundation into my skin. I tried using a brush but I found that I was using way to much and it didn't give the same flawless look as my fingers would. When I say its feels slightly oily I don't mean that that is a bad thing I have really oily skin myself and a grease ball look is the last think I want. It feels oily because this thing its packed with silicons that help smooth you skin and almost prime it at the same time. Once it has dried it fells super soft and silky on the skin giving a nice flawless finish.
I personally like silicons, I have a few primers with silicons in them so for me its not a big issue but I know a lot of people don't like silicons.
The thing with the silicons is that it makes this a very long lasting foundation yet doesn't feel heavy at all on the skin. It feels like almost nothing on which I really like and it also has a medium to full coverage. Which is another thing I like about the foundation.
The look you get with this foundation is a very natural one and it comes in 6 different shades. I have the lightest one (100 porcelain) and I think it's a great shade if you have very pale skin like me. I can't speak for the other shades but I do have to say that if you have very dark skin there is no shade that would match you which is very disappointing and quite surprising of Loreal.
Packaging wise they made it look like a little perfume bottle hence the name Eau De Teint. It comes in 20ml glass bottle with no pump. I think its a lovely idea with he bottle but one morning I was in a rush to get ready and I dropped it on the floor. Because its so slim its an easy think to do so let this be a warning to you as it took me ages to get it off the floor.
What else can I say about this foundation to you? Oh yes I has an SPF of 18 ( great as an winter foundation) and it did not make me break out. It has some alcohol in it which made me a bit weary but it didn't cost me to break out.
For the price I have to say £9.99 is not bad for a good foundation like this but I wish they could have done a 30ml bottle instead of just 20ml.
I do love this foundation a lot because of its silky light feel and the high coverage it gives but I have to say that I don't like the bottle it comes in, yes its great if you want to put it in your bag and carry it with you but for people like me that are quite clumsy it means that I have to be extra careful with not tipping it over maybe they should just put a pump on it and that problem would be solved for me.
Have you tried Eau De Teint yet? Let me know what you think if you have!!!

Let me know when you do try it, I would love to hear your opinion on it!!
DeleteI usually wouldn't go for a foundation that has an oily feel to it because I can sometimes have quite an oily t-zone. This doesn't sound too bad at all though!

Once this is dry its not oily at all, in fact it feels quite dry and would make an excellent foundation for oily skin.
DeleteThank you very much for your comment in my blog. I following your page. :) Follow my blog? :) I cordially invite you.:)

Greetings from Poland , Ola xx ♥
You are welcome, I enjoyed reading you post! Very thought provoking!!
Deletegreat post, I have used MAC foundations with a silicon feel to them beofre which I didnt like but I imagine this would feel less heavy for some reason! definitely worth trying for that price!
ReplyDeleteYeah this foundation doesn't feel heavy at all. I hope you will try it and let me know what you think!
DeleteI have this and found it to be a great lightweight foundation in the summer. My skin is a little too dry to use in the winter.
ReplyDeletekatespitz.blogspot.com
It does cling on to some dry patches so its probably better for summer or oilier skin!
DeleteSounds like a great foundation, I kind of wish the bottle was bigger though! :)
ReplyDeletesophie-said.blogspot.co.uk
Yes I wish that too. I think they just wanted it to look delicate like a perfume bottle.
DeleteI haven't tried it yet.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing!
