I think I am ready to say this.... This is the best foundation I have ever used. Move over Sheer Glow, this is the new favourite. Why? Because it stays put - on my oily nose, ALL DAY. Which is a miracle status in my opinion. So here is the full review!
Colour Range:
The colour range is fab! They have over 40 shades available, and all different undertones, so finding the perfect match was pretty straight forward (which can be a nightmare at times - especially with my neutral yellow - pale skin tone) The shade 005 is the perfect match for me, the best match I have had actually.
Application:
The application is perfect for this, it blends in beautifully with a beauty blender or a brush. The one issue I have with it is the smell - it has the high end, rose, gran smell - luckily it doesn't last long though, so not too much of an issue, but something to bear in mind if you have issues with smells.
Coverage:
The coverage is beautiful, it covers all my redness beautifully, and with one layer I would say it was full coverage. I hate the term "buildable" as I want one layer to do - so this is definitely hitting the mark where it comes to coverage.
After 1 Hour:
(And my eye watering and wearing glasses lol)
After 12 Hours:
12 hours is a long ass time to be wearing makeup, but to see it is still on my nose is INSANE for me. Normally after 4-5 my nose has began to come away, and my oil shining like crazy, but this is no touch ups, nothing, and its still there. Sure it is a little cakey around the bottom now, and my spots are shining though, but other than that it is amazing results.
Overall Results:
I am so obsessed with this foundation now, and it had hard competition to beat - but without a doubt this is my new favourite. One which I will be replacing once it is finished too! LOVE IT! :)
You can pick this up here for £31.50

This sounds amazing! I've had a hard time with foundation, so I'm always worried about spending a lot of money on one I might not like.
ReplyDeleteA Sparkle Of Grace
I really want to try this now! Foundation never lasts on my nose (or general area around my nose!!) Think I need to check it out!

I've not tried much from Lancôme but this might be my next by. I adore glowy foundations and it looks so nice on the skin! X
ReplyDeleteI've read so many positive reviews about this foundation. It sounds lovely. I really need to try more Lancome products, it's always a brand I overlook.
ReplyDeleteAgreed! I love this foundation and have a similar post coming on it! I decided to do 'foundation diaries' and test each one I own (I know I'll be doing it forever!) on the blog lol! Great post really enjoyed your writing! X
ReplyDeleteI've tried two Lancôme foundations - I love the cushion foundation x
ReplyDeleteHeather | Of Beauty & Nothingness
Sounds ideal for oily skin! This may have to be my next foundation x
ReplyDeleteThey have the best shade range! I'm like you with the yellow undertones but I'm super olive skinned! It's so hard for me to find a shade that's not too dark but also not pink toned!
ReplyDeleteLancôme are just bossing it in general imo!
I'm glad this Lancome foundation workd great for you,

I will definitely be heading straight to the Lancome counter next time I’m in the city! It’s so hard to find a foundation that has the right undertones for my skin & doesn’t come off around my nose within a few minutes! Does it oxidise much though? I’ve bought so many high-end foundations, only to find that I look like an orange after half an hour! Thanks for such a great review!

This foundation sounds fab! I'm impressed that you didn't touch up for 12hrs and the foundation still looks pretty damn good! Need to try this foundation!
ReplyDeleteNicole | The Glam Surge
It does sound absolutely amazing and if it lasts that long then worth every penny x
ReplyDeleteI've heard so many people talk about this foundation recently and it looks lovely on you! I think I'm going to have to pick it up and test it for myself x

You have literally sold me on this, shame I can't be it due to a spending ban but it's definitely going on this wishlist. My nose is the one part of my face I really struggle with foundation staying lately so if this stays that long and that well I definitely need to try it.

This sounds amazing! I love the shade compared to the other foundations. It looks so much more natural toned. When I want to treat myself I will 100% be picking this up! x
ReplyDeleteThis sound like the perfect foundation for oily skin, I need to try it out!
ReplyDeleteCass | CassandraMyee
I always find it so hard to find a foundation which sticks on my nose too, don't worry you're not the only one. It can be so frustrating! It sounds as if I need this in my life because your skin looks flawless in the photos
