Now I’ve been using the same foundation for years, not because of
brand loyalty. But because it is a mission to find a decent
foundation for my particular skin tone. The sun is finally out and I’ve decided that it is the perfect
time for a change.
I have seen the L’oreal Paris True Match Foundation #YoursTruly campaign on the TV many a time. Boosting
that their foundation is available in 23 shades and matches 98% of UK
skin tones. I was curious, and set off on my hunt to find it. It took me a
while to actually get my hands on it as it was always sold out or not in stock no
matter what shop I went to.
I
finally picked mine up from Superdrug and made the most of my UniDays 10% off
discount. I got the shade C10 espresso. And I have to say I am rather
impressed with it, I like that it isn’t full coverage. In this heat I
don’t want my face to be caked. However, if you are after a fuller coverage another layer will sort that.
I found the foundation very blend able, and left my skin with a flawless luxurious finish which left my skin with a healthy glow. It contains SPF 17 and comes with a pump which i find much easier to work with.
The
only minor point is that the foundation is a bit oily and runny. Something which I am not used to as I normally use a stick foundation. So you may need to
make sure that you set it with a good powder and setting spray.
Overall, I would definitely recommend L’oreal Paris True Match Foundation. Great value for money at only £9.99 and all day coverage. I hope more drug store brands take note and start making foundations in more tones as there is a real gap in the market.
Have you tried L’oreal Paris True Match, and if so what was your opinion of it?. Do you have a favourite drug store foundation?
