L'Oreal Paris Infallible 24H Matte Foundation Review

This foundation comes in an easy to apply, black tube. I was very disappointed with the limited colour range that L’Oreal offered. The undertones of these foundations are wrong, which makes it extremely difficult to colour match to your skin tone. This foundation applied smoothly to the skin and provided a full coverage. I did like the matte finish. However, this foundation caused my skin to break out, like major! I usually have one or two pimples, and currently my skin is covered in pimples and redness. For the price I paid, I expected more. I won’t be repurchasing this foundation

This was listed as a good dupe for Double Wear, so thought I’d give it a bash!

The colour I chose looked pretty close to my skin colour but I find it oxidises and goes a lot more orangey as the day goes on.

The tube is handy, as you can stand it on the lid and the product is right at the end so when it gets towards the end of the tube you don’t struggle to get the last drops out. The nozzle is small and thin so you can really control the application of product.

It’s quite thick, and easy to over do it! I also find it settles in to and accentuates dry patches and fine lines. It does last all day, there is some transfer but for the price point does a good enough job.

For me, other than the coverage and overall finish not much else compares to Double Wear. I keep this for going out in the evening so the dry patches/fine lines aren’t as noticeable in the darker lighting.

L'oreal is one of my favourite mid-priced brands, I've tried many of their foundations, lipsticks and blushes and been impressed in the past. When I heard people raving about how great this foundation was, I couldn't wait to try it.

First of all, I'm a lover of full coverage foundations- Estée Lauder double wear, MAC prolong wear and the list goes on. I had heard this was as good, but for a fraction of the price. So, this sold me!

The tube super stylish, black and sleek. It is made of plastic, and is sturdy. I like that it's not breakable, and can easily be popped in my bag. The tube reminds me of the new MAC prolong wear nourishing foundation- it is just so similar.

My skin tends to be of the dry type, although my skin has improved greatly lately due to the skincare I've been using. So, I would say it's currently normal.

As usual, I always use my moisturiser and wait for it to dry and then apply primer. Afterwards I apply this foundation by using my RT brush. Ip the formula is nice and buildable on my skin.

It's so easy to apply and it feels comfortable on the skin. The consistency feels nice and it doesn't feel too thick, like some high coverage foundations do.

Although it covers imperfections so well it feels lightweight on your skin and it really lasts during the day. I really loved the beautiful finish it gave to my skin. It gave me such a flawless, matte finish that just made my skin look so nice.

BUT...unfortunately, after using this for awhile, it just doesn't agree with my sensitive skin and I had a reaction. This was so disappointing as it's such a lovely foundation, and if it had agreed with my skin it would be getting five stars.

I so love this foundation! It's easily blended, I love the tube design which makes for easy access to the product. It looks flawless on and is very long lasting, sometimes I have to pitch in and do warehouse labour when I'm short staffed and I tell you, it gets to 40deg in the factory and I will be dripping with sweat but this foundation Does. Not. Budge. I have oily skin and used it with the matching matte primer and it glided on flawlessly with a real techniques 301 Brush Crush foundation brush, the finish was excellent and I needed minimal concealer afterwards. Now the downside. Whether it was the primer or the foundation I'm not sure but the combo on my skin made me break out like never before, within a week of wearing it I had full blown acne across my cheeks and forehead where I've generally been clear and my problem area; chin reigon was so exacerbated there was not a single clear space. I've always had 1 or 2 cystic spots since puberty many moons ago but my whole face has broken out. This is so sad for me because I absolutely loved the way this foundation looks on my skin, it doesn't go cakey or patchy but stays flawless. I would still reccomend this foundation to anyone who has oily skin and wants flawless long wearing makeup, but be careful if you are a sensitive little flower like me!

Love this new foundation! Great coverage, lasts well and does a good job keeping me shine free. My only complaint is that the lightest shade is slightly too dark for me, especially in winter, so a wider range of shades would be good.

This foundation is very very matte. Even on my oily/combination skin it can look a little dry and cakey. however, with a moisturising primer it looks so flawless and beautiful! The foundation lasts all day long and still looks flawless at the end of the day. I love it!

I asked the shop assistant to recommend something that lasts and stops oily-ness. This foundation has plenty of colours on offer so shouldnt be hard to find the colour you prefer. I got the Rose Beige one, there is one colour lighter than this but I prefer to look a tiny bit less white. This colour was perfect for my skin colour. In regards to my oily skin, the foundation conquered it! In regards to lasting all day, it does last but i discovered that i didnt like the coverage as much. my old make up was able to hide my dark under eyes much better. I was worried I would use it quickly because i looks like a small tube but has so far surprised me so far lasting 3months.

This is a super great foundation for oily skinned people that want a fuller coverage, even though it is matte I always set it with a powder to make it last even longer. the packaging is great, it makes it hygienic and easy to use, it also means you can get every last but of product. The one thing I didn't like about this product was the colour range, I haven't been able to find my perfect match, I don't feel like they have enough colours out, and they don't have a wide range of undertones either.

I purchased this foundation as a cheaper everyday foundation as I don't like wasting my expensive usual foundation for everyday use. Small amount goes a long way and is light wearing and long lasting. My only issue is the colour range doesn't seem to match my skin tone quite right but nothing a bit of contouring doesn't fix
