L'Oréal True Match Foundation

I have often used L'Oreal foundations and this one is another consistant performer.

The packaging for this foundation was clear which is ideal and was topped with a pump which is the way I like my foundation bottles.

The product itself gives a light to medium coverage which lasts relatively well on its own and even better when set with powder.

As the product promises it blends well into the skin, but obviously you still have to get the right shade for the blending to look natural.

I also really like the SPF component to the foundation and the range of shades available.

I think it's a really good standard foundation.

When I first tried this foundation I thought it was great, the colour matched my skin tone really well, it blended into my skin, it wasn't as full coverage as I would have liked but it is quite buildable so that was easily fixed. What I didn't like was that after about half an hour or so the foundation starts to turn orange.

When I first tried a sample of this product I LOVED it, it made my skin look amazing without having to use a large amount. But it starting oxidizing within a week -no other foundation has ever made me SO orange. I went down a shade, tried a primer, used powder but it looks terrible. Totally gutted because I know this works well for so many people! Everything else about it was great - love the bottle and the pump, I'd have to say the packaging is the nicest I've ever used. Also LOVE the shade range, caters for so many skin tones.

I purchased this online in shade c3 rose beige on a whim, i normally stick to one brand of foundation as i have super dry skin and most foundations ive tried just make it look worse and cling to dry patches. I had such high hopes for this product and it definitely met my expectations! I moisturised and primed my face first and then applied this all over my face with a damp beauty blender. It applies nicely, i love that it has a pump as well. The colour matched my skin perfectly, it covered my acne scars and red spots which i have quite a few of! It didnt cling to any dry patches and it looked flawless for the whole day! This is my new favourite foundation for sure, and to top it off it's crazy cheap to get online so i'll be saving money.

I like this foundation and use it alot! it gives a good natural coverage to the skin, blending really well and looking non cakey. The colour range for this foundation is really good and gives loads of options. I love a foundation with a pump and so glad when they re packaged it they added a pump sooooo much easier to use!!

I bought this foundation from one of those makeup sale websites. I think I paid around $15 which is a pretty good price compared to NZ retail! My bottle is a bit different to the pic though. It's a small glass bottle with no pump, it just has a screw top lid. It still has 30mls even though the bottle looks really small. I do really prefer pumps though, it's way better to control how much foundation comes out.

I have the shade natural buff, it says it's a neutral tone but it does come off quite yellow. It's slightly too dark for me but nothing major. Unfortunately, I do notice it oxidizing slightly throughout the day. Although this foundation is quite thin, it is very pigmented and gives a medium to full coverage. It does have quite a scent, sort of a typical makeup scent with maybe a touch of chemicals? I don't really notice it though.

I have very dry skin, I don't actually typically go for more fuller coverage foundations. Generally the heavier the coverage, the heavier the caking! This actually isn't so bad though. I think it looks incredible when I first apply it. It covers most of my flaws and really looks even. It is super easy to blend like it says, I like to use a sponge because I have dry skin. During the day, I do notice some slight wear and of course the annoying oxidizing. But, of all the foundations I've tried, it's no where near the worst.

I don't think this could be an everyday sort of foundation for me, I definitely prefer something lighter. I do think that it is perfect for a night out or just for a short while. I do think if I did ever buy it again, I'd go two shades lighter than this one, maybe that would work out better.

I have very pale skin so I have a lot of trouble finding a foundation that is light enough for my skin tone, after spending hundreds of dollars and ending up with heaps of foundation bottles that are still 3/4 full, I finally decided to try this foundation, and I love it! It's blends into the skin really nicely, doesn't clog pores, lasts for hours and is so lightweight that you forget your wearing foundation. If you use your fingers to blend it then it's light cover, if you use a beauty blender then its medium coverage. A great thing about it is that you can build your coverage without it looking cakey.

Pros: Great coverage Not cakey Lightweight Doesn't clog pores Lasts for hours Great range of colours Very smooth texture Doesn't need primer underneath Doesn't need powder on top (if you want a more matte look then use powder on top)

I would definitely recommend this foundation!

Great foundation for a medium to heavy coverage, managing to cover most blemishes and even plumped out a few little lines around the eyes, but as nice as this feels on the skin and how pretty the complexion appears if you are not quick with the setting powder this oxidises fast and turns the beautiful flawless look rather orange looking.

After playing around with this on several occassions as I refused to give up as the resulting look was great and the price point was good. I found that as long as you have a good primer that doesn't allow product to sink into the pores and a lightweight mineral setting powder to dust over as soon as you have finished dabbing in with a sponge then you can stop the orange faze but it is a hassle so I don't wear it very often.

It does last on the skin but then it is trapped within a great primer and perfect finishing powder with a spray of setting on top so I would be mad if it did slip and slide around, or transfer off my face.

It didn't cause any advise reaction on my skin which would have caused breakouts so it is a nice foundation just a shame you have to work so quickly with it.
