Natural beauty in a bottle.
I love this foundation, even with my slightly awkward skin (in every way imaginable), this makes my skin look so bright, smooth and dare I say it, beautiful? I'm thinking this might be a dupe for the Giorgio Armani Maestro foundation which I had been testing out before hand and at a fraction of the price, that's got to be a win, right?
I have the shade 150~nude beige and although at first I thought it might be a little dark, it blended amazingly and matched perfectly! I had to add a little concealer due to some nasty hormonal breakouts but it smoothed over my pores and discolouration like a dream. I think this would be the PERFECT summer foundation and I can't wait to use it when I start going back to my more 'fresh faced' look. Literally the only criticism I have about this product is the lack of a pump on the bottle... The foundation is so thin (watery) that it pours out and there is no controlling it. I find the only way to apply it without getting too much is to remove the lid, cover the top with my finger and shake so the foundation goes onto my finger and I can then dot it onto my face. Other than that, I can't fault it! I'd recommend this for all skin types.
I was really excited to try this foundation as L’Oreal is my
favourite high street make up brand and I’ve always had a lot of success with
their other offerings.
The texture of Eau De Teint is like nothing I’ve tried
before, sort of like a soft velvety water! It smoothes into the skin like a
dream, almost melting away. Even though the shade I have is slightly too dark
for me I was pleasantly surprised by how it softened and blended it as I
applied it and ended up matching nicely.
I have an awful lot of redness in my skin so I tend to go
for a high coverage foundation to mask it as best as I can. Eau De Teint is of
course a low coverage due to its water like feel, however it does seem very
buildable. It masked my pores and imperfections beautifully and toned down my
redness, perhaps not quite enough for me to wear it on an evening out but day
to day I think it is perfect. I’ll definitely be wearing it for my daily trips
to and from uni, especially because it’s so easy to apply it’ll mean I get an
extra five minutes in bed!
I haven’t taken any pictures because I’m in the middle of a
rather unpleasant dissertation related breakout but Kerri and Linzi have done a
cracking job. I must say though that I think that the bottle is gorgeous, very
luxury with its heavy glass feel and shimmering purple letters although you do
need to go steady when pouring it out!
If you like an easy to apply, natural looking foundation
then I would definitely recommend that you give Eau De Teint a try.
