Review By Terry Lumière Veloutée
The packaging is drop-dead-gorgeous and so it should be for its price (between 60-70euros, so try to catch it in discount when it's 30% off or so). The gold cap, the gold pump, the beautifull letters, the milk glass bottle - it's a picture perfect don't you think? The pump works easy in dispensing and you can also take it off to get the rest of the product out of it when it's getting empty. The bottle contains 30ml of product.
Initially I bought colour 3 natural beige (left) in the summer, but in the winter I need colour 2 flesh beige (right). Colour 2 is a very neutral colour that will suit most fair skin tones, I mostly have a hard time finding a colour that suits me and this does it perfectly! Colour 1 is called ultra fair and has a very pink undertone to it. There are a total of 8 shades available. As you can see it's well pigmented and provides a decent coverage in the swatches. It looks very liquid and creamy, but after blending it in, it leaves a more powdery finish. It also has a flowery scent to it, it's very light and doesn't disturb me but gives a nice touch to the luxurious feeling...

Het heeft precies niet zoveel effect als ik de 2 foto's vergelijk. Enkel onder je ogen zie je wat verschil maar voor de rest is je huid toch op zich al prachtig.
Ik ben nu wel heel benieuwd naar deze foundation. Ik vind het wel een mooi effect hebben, hoewel je inderdaad al een goede huid hebt zonder foundation! :)
Dankje Phil, via de vergroting zie je wel wat meer maar mn huid valt inderdaad goed mee. Twee jaar geleden was het wel anders, heb hier en daar wat littekens en kleine vlekjes maar door goed gebruik van AHA's is ze al goed opgeknapt!!
Nog eens dankje :). Het effect fotografeert gewoon zo mooi. Ik zou in Hasselt een staaltje eens vragen, kun je het zelf uitproberen want het is te prijzig om zo te kopen. Ik hou van luxueuze foundation, goedkopere merken zien er echt bagger uit bij me :(, ik heb nog een andere favoriet van Chanel waar ik ook nog over moet schrijven... Maar ik koop vooral tinted moisturizers omdat die meer voeding hebben en ik maar weinig dekking nodig heb.
you do NOT need a foundation! so envious of your skin : (
Thanks littlelucy :). I don't use foundation often (hence to why the bottle lasts me so long) and hardly ever use concealer, I mostly use Laura Mercier tinted moisturizer. But when I have a party or something like that, I use foundation on my cheek areas. That's the only place I need some coverage because they tend to get reddish from time to time. A good skin care regime has definitely improved my overall skin tone, I've had my share of skin problems in the past though so I'm very pleased with how it looks nowdays.
