Hope you are all well and enjoyed the unreal weather we had over the last few days – long may it last and hopefully that isn’t it the end of our summer just yet!
I am excited to be telling you about a Lancôme foundation for this months’ post. I was actually in search of a new one, particularly for day time and have been using the Teint Idole Ultra Wear Nude for the past 2 months now. I think with any kind of make-up but in particular foundation, that you need to be using the product for a few weeks to get a good feel for how it sits on your skin & how it wears throughout the day etc.
Every foundation is going to sit differently depending on your skin type and if anyone has combination skin, then you are in the same boat as me – oily around the t-zone and sometimes dryer around the cheek area.
So, what did I like about it? I wasn’t looking for anything too heavy as I prefer to keep that kind of coverage for a night time look and the best way to describe the foundation is a no make-up, make-up look if that makes sense! A little went a long way (found that out when I first applied it and poured wayyyy too much out of the bottle) & it definitely lasted throughout the day. I did wear it the odd weekend and it also powered through hours of dancing, there was just a tiny little bit to touch up on my forehead but that was to be expected as I only applied a light layer.
It also contains SPF19 and the overall finish is matte so perfect if you have oily skin. There are 40 shades available and I am wearing no 045 which was a great match for my tan. It’s priced at €39.95 and would I buy it again when I run out? Most definitely.
