L'Oreal Paris Infallible Freshwear Liquid Foundation

This may be a new favourite foundation! This is an absolutely weightless formula that lasts until removed with cleanser.

The foundation is a runny consistency with a subtle pleasant scent. The inbuilt pump makes it easy to dispense the correct amount with no wastage, which I love. I applied it with a flat kabuki brush. The foundation blended in well, looking very natural with good coverage.

I've tried a lot of foundations lately and this one definitely takes the prize for lightest and longest lasting.

This foundation is absolutely amazing. I have slight red patches on my skin and this covered them without looking cakey at all. And I also managed to test it on being sweat proof, and it definitely is!! It didn't move an inch, even through a bit of sweat. It looks so good on the skin too, and doesn't ever look cakey whatsoever. I will definitely be buying this one again as soon as I've used it up, it's become my go-to foundation!

This foundation covers anything and everything its quite liquidy so I thought it would be light on the skin but it drys fast very fast and it does feel like you have make up on. It doesn't wear to well on me it does crease but if you can get that first layer down nicely then it's better for longer but on me still creases it's not my everyday foundation but it is a really good one. Looks beautiful upon initial application would be a great photo foundation.

This foundation started the day great. Applying it to my face it felt silky and smooth. It sat nicely on my skin and gave great coverage without feeling heavy or cakey. I have bright red patches on my face that tend to shine through most foundations, but this didn't happen when I first applied in the morning.

However... by lunch time this had all changed. I looked in the mirror and noticed my face was starting to look really patchy and starting to turn orange. I reapplied, but again it started to look horrible after about 4 hours.

I used this foundation for 4 days with different primers, setting sprays, translucent powders and still ended up with a patchy, dusty looking face by lunch time. I also began noticing a lot more clusters of breakouts since starting to use this foundation, especially around my nose and along my jawline.

Pros: - really nice consistency - no weird chemical smell - great coverage when first applying - 2 pumps did my whole face and neck - non-greasy formula

Cons: - not long lasting AT ALL for me - caused more breakouts than expected - pretty pricey considering the length of time it stayed on my skin looking nice

What can I say about this!? The coverage was great and the finish was beautiful and skin-like. After a few hours of wear i found it to be a bit slippery (I have oily skin so nothing out of the ordinary for me). Easy fix for that, use a decent primer and it really lives up to its 'no transfer, 24hr' name. I've been hesitant to try a new foundation but this is such an easy everyday wear. I can honestly say I'll be making sure to always have this in my makeup bag. This foundation smells nice and fresh, goes on beautifully, doesn't clog up around the nose, and lasts like a high end foundation. What more could you possible want from a product?

The blurb reads that this will wear like a full coverage foundation while still feeling light weight, also boasting to be both sweat and transfer proof. Well I am surprised to say that it definitely ticked ALL of those boxes. I have what we call 'mature' skin, so yes I have all those forehead frown lines and eye and lip smile wrinkles that full coverage foundations like to exaggerate, this foundation being much more light weight didn't sit around exaggerating all the wrong places ... yayyyy. I put it to the ultimate test by wearing it to work, I never wear foundation to work EVER, because I have a fast paced job in very humid conditions and tend to work up quite a sweat, however I can happily tell you that my foundation looks just as good after a long hot and sweaty shift as it did this morning. The liquid is smooth and thin and was easily applied for a fresh smooth lightweight look.

I did enjoy this foundation. It applies nicely with a damp beauty blender and feels lightweight on the skin. The coverage is good and can build fast when too much product is applied but i found the damp sponge to help evenly spread and apply worked the best. Coverage does last well during the day and i do set with a pressed powder as i can tend to get a little oily towards the end of the day. This foundation didn't make me any more oily it looks nice on the skin. It is a good product for the price and does what it claims too. Nice packaging, I would recommend this product.
