L'oreal True Match Foundation Review

Finally a high street brand has made foundations in cool, neutral and warm shades with the relevant lettering to go with it (C, CN, N, WN, W). I feel like true match is not really the right name for the foundation though because it gives the consumer the idea that it is one of those self adjusting foundations.

I really enjoy a full coverage foundation but always hate how thick all of the formulas are. The L'OrĂ©al true match foundation is not thick at all. it is possibly one of the runniest foundations I own. If you pump some on your hand it will run. This means you can add layers to places you need more coverage without it looking like there is a lot of foundation on your face.

This foundation gives a matte, natural looking finish. I love applying this foundation with a flat top kabuki brush from Zoeva mainly as it gives me the most coverage out of it. I do normally apply with a beauty blender when I want a more natural medium coverage.

I do feel like the foundation can be quite drying on the skin and if you have visible dry patches the foundation will cling to these areas. I have combination skin with some dry patches but mostly oily and normal skin and it works brilliantly for me. This is now my 4th or 5th bottle of it and I think this is the only reason why I haven’t splurged and bought a high end foundation.

What is your favourite foundation from the high street and who remembers the old packaging of the True Match foundation?
