Loreal Paris Foundation

Loreal Paris Nude Magique £9.99 at Boots


I was quite taken back when i opened the sample to find the foundation was actually white. I didn't really look into what it was i just so the sample and thought i would try it. This is actually a BB cream that i see many brands are doing, it's a mix between make up and cream so you get the best of both worlds all in one. Don't be alarmed by the colour though as once rubbed in it goes a nude colour as it says on the pack, but for me it was very orange as i have very light skin and i don't fake tan. The texture of the foundation how ever is very smooth and light on the skin it doesn't feel clumped up and thick. This was classed as a medium colour so i feel a bit put off buying it due to the fact that my skin is really light so i feel as though if this is only medium and so dark, i don't think very light would be that much lighter. I would after try a sample of it before i buy because i wouldn't want to waste my money. I was that orange i looked like a umpa lumpa from willy wonka and the chocolate factory lol. But i would recommend for thoughs who are tanned skinned or got fake tan on.
I got some loreal paris samples of foundations threw this morning. So it's been a few beauty treats threw my post box today.

This foundation is fair good, covers easily and even though you can feel it on your skin its got a soft consistency so is very light. The colour is pure beige (N4) once again i found it to dark for my skin so would suit, darked skin/tanned. I am so wary of trying new foundations because i am so fair skinned, i use at present rimmel wake me up in ivory and a rimmel peach glow matte powder even though its suppose to make the shine disappear i find it lightens the foundation also. Which is more or less perfect for my skin tone.


So what do you think? Let me know, try a sample before you buy if you can. To make sure you find the correct shade for your skin tone.
