Make-up Review: Loreal True Match Foundation!
I am always looking for makeup products so I jump at the chance to try a new product! A few days ago, I noticed I was running low on my MAC foundation, so instead of just going to the MAC store nearby, I decided to go to Wal-Mart to browse their cosmetics section. I am really picky when it comes to my makeup (partially due to the fact that I have extremely sensitive skin!), so I generally stick to higher end/department store foundations, but I wanted to try another foundation.
As a person of color, it can be very tricky to find a foundation that matches my skin-tone perfectly. I have always wanted to try Loreal’s True Match Foundation, so I was excited to finally get the chance to experiment with their foundation. It took me less than 5 minutes total to pick an item, which is almost impossible for me to do because I could literally spend hours looking at make-up!
I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised to find a color that was an exact match to my skin-tone! This is something that has never happened before, so I was thrilled to say the least…
I purchased Loreal True Match Foundation in C7 Nut Brown which retails for about $9. This foundation provides sunscreen (SPF 17) and is oil-free. The actual product is very light (I forgot I had any on) and applies smoothly to the skin – I really don’t have anything negative to say about this product! Perhaps one could argue that the coverage is minimal in comparison to other formulas, but I am not really a fun of “heavy foundations” for everyday use anyway.
I have only been wearing foundation on a consistent basis for about a year…but I am glad that I now have another foundation that I can wear! Up until this point, I had only been wearing MAC Studio Fix Fluid in NC55, which I absolutely love. However, Studio Fix Fluid provides heavy coverage and can be a bit much at times, so I will definitely use both of the foundations to switch it up a little bit.
What brands of foundation do you wear?
