Why is it that finding the right foundation can be such a chore?! I am sure I am not the only one who has purchased a foundation and then has not been happy. Was only a couple a days ago I did just this, spending $80 hoping I was making the right choice but I had lucked out finding it was just not right for everyday use. So I researched and researched and decided to give L'Oreal True Match a try (thanks to reviews on Youtube). I was more than happy to just buy L’Oreal True Match as it was half the price of my last purchase at only $44 from Farmers. I choose to shop at Farmers as I like to support NZ business and I have the opportunity to gain beauty Rewards points.
I have medium to oily warm/yellow toned skin and purchased the L'Oreal True Match in W3 Golden Beige. L'Oreal True Match has an amazing selection of colours and three undertones to choose from C = Cool, W = Warm, N = Neutral which come in a classy glass bottle with 30ml contents (which is pretty standard) and a pump which I love, It makes dispersing and measuring the amount needed so easy.
The formula contains SPF which is great during the summer months as I do not apply sun cream to my face so I feel I am protected, if you are doing a photo shoot you might find this gives you a whiteout effect (I have not tried this so cannot confirm but something to consider for photos). The foundation is so easy to apply; I like to stipple on with Sigma F80 and then buff into my face. It is bendable and does not dry quickly which makes it easy to manipulate around your face. I would say this foundation is a medium coverage but buildable to fuller. I would recommend using a concealer for darker blemishes but the foundation covers redness and minor imperfections easily. You will need to set this with a power as you are left with a Satin Dewy finish and I feel it would remain slightly wet without doing so, I am loving the dewier look at the moment (now I am getting older).. Nothing like young, radiant and glowing skin. If you are after a really Matte finish this may not be the foundation for you. True Match is so easy to wear; you can hardly feel you are wearing it at all! I find it lasts an average day and a simple touch up would make it last even longer without looking cakey.
This is now make everyday go to foundation. I feel radiant and glowing from the inside when I have it on; I get comments on how beautiful and flawless my skin looks. I recommend True Match for anyone wanting a beautiful natural but flawless looking finish that leaves you with a slight dewy healthy glow. I am really blown away how amazing this drugstore foundation is and would recommend everyone give it a go.
I liked this makeup and found it blended in to my skin tone very well and was super easy to wear. It was my go to day time make up for a fresh easy look.
