L'Oreal Paris True Match Foundation review




Hey everyone, today I've got a foundation review for you. I've been trying the L'Oreal Paris True Match Foundation. About a month or maybe longer ago L'Oreal were doing this promotional thing on their website where you could request to get a free sample of the True Match foundation in the shade that they predicted was right for you. It arrived about 2 weeks ago so I've tried it a few times to test it out. In terms of it being my 'true match' I would say it's the closest shade to my skin tone, however it is a tad on the darker side, but I think for the summer months it will go really well with my slightly tanned skin. Consistency wise it's like your typical liquid foundation so it's not too runny or too rigid, so it's easy to blend. I'd say the coverage is medium, but you could probably build it up to a higher coverage. What I also really liked was that it lasted pretty much all day on me, so around 8 hours or so. I did powder my skin, but I don't think it would slip around too much, but if you have combination to oily skin I would still powder it just in case it moves around a bit. Overall though I'm really impressed with this foundation and when it gets round to the summer months I will probably buy a full version of this foundation.

What it looks like on. I'm not wearing any other makeup because I wanted the focus to stay on what the foundation actually looks like.


I hope you liked this review. What's your favourite foundation right now? Let me know in the comments, I love to find out what everyone else loves.

  1. Love the natural matte finish on you! My current favourite foundation is the Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum foundation - so light and nice for spring.

    1. Awww thank you! I've never tried that foundation because I've heard it's better for dryer skin types, but I know loads of people love it. x

  8. I mostly use my Garnier BB cream. Also like the Ponds one. Generally tend not to wear foundation as I don't like the feeling of it on my skin.

    1. That's fair enough, some people can find foundation a bit too heavy on their skin which is understandable. x

  11. It sounds like it's a good product. I don't use foundation. Just a conealer and a powder. I think I woould choose the one by Borjouis because I also have the same concealer. Great review.

    1. Thanks and yay glad you enjoyed reading it. Yeah on days where I think my skin is a bit better than usual I only wear concealer and powder, or if I've over slept and there's not enough time to put foundation on cos blending takes time haha. x
