L'Oreal Paris Eau De Teint Foundation Review

When the little bottle of L’Oreal Paris Nude Magique Eau De Teint foundation landed on my desk, I thought it was a sample size. It’s just 20ml, the cutest little glass foundation bottle I’ve seen in a while. But no, this is the sale size. Now, you might be thinking what good is a 20ml bottle of foundation? Well, think again.

This is the hotly anticipated ‘lighter than water’ foundation from L’Oreal Paris, and you need such a tiny amount, that the £9.99 20ml bottle will last you as long as any of your regular foundations, which are usually around 30 or 40ml.

All you need to apply this is your fingertip. Simply shake the bottle well, and tip it up as you would tip up and Eau de Parfum bottle, against your fingertip, and the amount released is all you need for your face, for a fresh, barely-there makeup look.

If you want more coverage add some more. The coverage of this is matte, so be careful not to add too much. The ultra-fine, extra liquid formula is a bit tricky to get to grips with at first, but this foundation is excellent.

Created using oils that evaporate as the super fluid formula touches the skin, it really does blend in with ease, with no grease. It feels smooth to touch, and looks great on the skin.

I applied more than just the one drop, to give a little extra coverage, and it really feels barely there. Here’s a silly photo of me – you can see how smooth my skin looks!

If you are looking for a new foundation, then I suggest you give this a go, if you want something easy to apply, with a barely-there feel. It comes  in 6 nude shades, and has an SPF18.
