After my recent sift through my stash for my Makeup Collection/Storage video, I realised I was seriously lacking in the everyday lightweight foundation category, not to mention one that was right for my winter skin (I’m the palest I’ve ever been and loving it – except for the base matching struggle, obvs). I weighed up my options and even did a little ask on twitter, and eventually waddled down to boots (Why waddled? It was a Friday after a heavy day of snacking, that’s why), knowing full well that I wasn’t really just stepping into Boots to buy my mum a mothers day present. Three Essie polishes, one Chanel Lipstick and a Vitalumiere Aqua later and I was done.
I’ve already reviewed the aforementioned Chanel lipstick (link here), but I thought a second post of Chanel-ness was needed as I’ve really been enjoying wearing this foundation. Before I get started the first thing I would say is: If (like me) you suffer with facial eczema – this will cling to it. Luckily mine is clearing up, but don’t be fooled by the fact that it’s light weight, let’s your natural oils through and oilier skinned girls have been warned to steer clear. It is light weight, but not right for very dry skins, however I can also see that if you had oily skin this might need a powder too, so I feel like the audience for this foundation reduced a little here.
That being said, I find that mixed with my Dior Glow Maximizer Light Boosting Primer, this settles much better over dry skin. And on the oilier parts of my face (think cheeks and nose), a little bit of my Benefit Porefessional Powder does the trick and keeps things in place all day (note: it’s not a miracle powder, I’m just not super oily).
Basically, unless you have perfectly normal skin, this foundation might need a little bit of help. But once you’re done, you have a really beautiful, fresh finish to your skin. I have the shade 10 Beige (my first Chanel foundation was 40 Beige, wow, much difference.) and it matches perfectly. However if you’re paler than me you might struggle to find a match.
I feel like I’m really not doing this foundation justice, but there are just so many factors to be aware of before you opt for such a pricey product. Even taking those into account I really do love it and can see it being my everyday foundation of choice for the foreseeable future.
It looks beautiful 🙂

I wanted to try this because so many people love it but when I saw the swatch comparison of the B10 and foundations I'm using I new it would be just too dark :/ (The perfect shade for me is Bourjois HM 51 for reference)

I love love love this foundation! 🙂

Hmm.. I have quite dry skin and I´m very pale (MAC nc15 is still too dark) so I guess I can never try this.. Too bad 🙁

I'm really glad to read reviews including how foundations work over eczema – I keep ending up with patches that certain foundations – Illamasqua, I'm glaring at you – emphasise grimly!
I love this product. So natural! 🙂

I don't think this foundation would be that good for me, I have rather dry skin and I prefer just using a tiny bit of a fuller coverage instead of buying a sheer foundation.

Since my skin tends to get dehydrated I might give this a miss and go for an Armani foundation instead :o) Xx

My skin is combination so I think it would work for me but I think I'm too pale for it 🙁

I think this is without a doubt my favorite foundation (if only it didn't have the spf) the coverage is fantastic, and it stays all day long on my dehydrated/combination/acne prone skin. The only issue I have with it is the shade range! UGH.
Looks beautiful!!

I tried this once and I'm not a fan of the coverage and wasn't too keen with it on my own skin. That said, it looks amazing on you!

I've heard pretty mixed reviews on this foundation. I think the main thing that's kept me off buying it is the price buuut I also tend to get dry patches and one of my makeup pet peeves is when foundation or concealer clings to the patches. Thanks for your review Suzie 🙂

I've nearly finished the perfection lumiere which i am in looooove with! Can't decide if this product would be too sheer.. I am tempted though!
I love this and it is the most natural foundation. Perfect for the warmer months to come.

Looks beautiful on you! This is probably my favorite foundation of all time. I love the finish and how light it feels, as well as the fact that I was able to find a shade match for my pale skin that wasn't too pink. I also found it to be quite buildable – basically, for me this is an all-around winner.

I was talking about this foundation in my "Inspiration:Anna Kareniena" post, wanna check it? http://crumbliest.blogspot.com/
I love this foundation it's my favorite one.
I love the Revlon Nearly Naked mixed with moisturiser for a light base, but this sounds gorgeous as well! xx

P.S. I don't want to be spammy, but I have a YSL Lipstick Giveaway on my blog at the moment!
I'd love to try this foundation, however I'm slightly hessitant. It's a huge commitment to spend so much on a foundation so I want to make sure it will actually work for my skin. I love the finish it leaves on the face though, I just hope it does the same on mine!

I do have quite an oily face which has made me a little bit wary of this product since it is so expensive. Maybe I will try and get a sample out of them first because I really want to try it! You're skin looks amazing with it on.

This is my all time favourite foundation, I love everything about it, its very lightweight on the skin yet buildable for more coverage.
You look amazing.

I love this foundation as well, but only on my really good skin days – ha! I also have to add a little yellow pigment in it to get it matched perfectly.

seriously flawless! I think this will be on my 'too purchase' list when I head to America, it is just wayyy to expensive here in Australia.

Have an amazing day 🙂
