My favourite foundation - L'Oreal True Match



L'Oreal True Match is undoubtedly my favourite foundation. 





L'Oreal True Match comes in 23 shades suiting all skin tones.

This foundation matches the colour of your skin as well as the texture meaning that it can easily cover up any blemishes or break outs on your skin leaving your skin looking natural and flawless. 

Although this is a liquid foundation it is not a greasy, thin consistency. It is a creamy medium consistency that gives good coverage alone and can be built up to give a fuller coverage. I would say that this is a medium coverage foundation. 

I'm the past I've never been able to find a foundation light enough for my skin (when i don't have fake tan on) however True Match caters for this problem as they have created light shades to suit the palest of skin.

L'Oreal offer a skin testing tool on their website so you can find out which foundation colour is for you by answering a few easy multiple choice questions. Within 1 minute you will know which foundation colour is for you. This tool can be found by visiting their website here.

The foundation is very easy to blend into your skin. I use my Real Techniques Buffing Brush to buff the product into my skin. This leaves my skin looking flawless no matter how badly my skin looks underneath. The product blends perfectly into the oily parts of my skin and blends over the dry patches without the foundation sticking to them and drying them out further. 

This bottle of foundation lasts a very long time, you definitely get your moneys worth. I apply one pump to my face in the morning and never need to re-apply it throughout the day. The cost for a bottle of this product is £9.99 and worth every penny. 





The packaging of the product makes it look like a high end expensive foundation. £9.99 may seem like a lot for a foundation but it is worth it. The foundation comes in a glass bottle with a silver pump and a plastic cap. I have never needed to clean the pump as i have never experienced the product clogging. The bottle is small enough to that you can take it on holiday, for an overnight stay or weekend break. 

On a daily basis for a base I apply one pump of the foundation to my skin buffing it in before applying a light layer of powder to set it into place. I find that this lasts the whole day and when taking my makeup off at night I have some foundation on my cotton pad meaning that the foundation has remained on my skin the whole day and has not slid off or sunk into my skin throughout the day.

If I am going out at night to a party, event, clubbing etc then I will apply a primer under my foundation then apply the foundation in the same way mentioned above. This ensures that my foundation stays in place no matter how warm the place is. 

This foundation Is the best one that I have found. My shade matches my skins colour and texture perfectly and remains on my skin the whole day. I have just finished a bottle of this foundation and will not be hesitating in buying another one. It has become a product that I cannot live without.
