Is L'Oreal Infallible Pro Matte Foundation Worth the Hype?
L'Oreal Infallible Pro Matte Foundation has garnered quite the buzz for its impressive coverage at an affordable price. If you have oily skin, you might wonder: Is it worth the hype? Let’s dive into my review!
Shades and Price
I’m currently using two shades: 104 Golden Beige and 103 Natural Buff. The price is around ₱700, making it accessible for most beauty enthusiasts.
Price: P 700 |
Packaging
The foundation comes in a convenient squeeze-tube, containing 30 ml of product. This travel-friendly design means you won’t have to worry about spills or breakage in your bag—perfect for on-the-go touch-ups!
Coverage and Consistency
This foundation instantly provides a smooth, even skin tone, effectively concealing redness around the nose and brightening dark under-eye areas. It truly brings life to a tired face!
In terms of consistency, it works well with both buffing brushes and sponges. However, be cautious not to overload your application, as it can become cakey. Start with a small amount, buff it out, and then add more to achieve your desired coverage. It’s wonderfully buildable!
One of the standout features of this foundation is its long-lasting formula. After a hectic train ride and six hours of sun exposure during fieldwork, my makeup held up surprisingly well. Even after sweating, you could still tell I was wearing makeup!
A Few Tips for Application
Moisturize: This foundation sets quickly and can be drying. A good moisturizer will help prevent dry patches and give your skin a lively glow—nobody wants a flat matte look!
Use a Primer: A good primer will blur large pores and fine lines, enhancing the foundation's beautiful finish.
Work Quickly and Layer: Warm up the product with your fingers before applying. If you prefer using a brush, ensure you blend well to avoid streaks. If you struggle with application, a sponge is a great alternative.
Set with Powder: Finish off with a translucent or setting powder to lock everything in place.
You will observe that without moisturizer and multiple layers of this foundation can actually make you look like its El Nino. |
