Amazing Foundation
I have been using Clarins foundation for over twenty years and have grown old and it still keeps my skin looking good. My daughters now use the product in different shades to mine and we all agree it makes our skin look smooth and is not heavy but covers any faults our skin has.
This has a great overall coverage. I use this with a foundation brush and a little goes a long way. This also smells fantastic. I prefer this over my previous brand Lancome.
The foundation has light to medium coverage which is perfect for someone who is looking for a more natural, everyday look. I bought this foundation in the shade sand (108) and find that it almost perfectly matches my skin tone, which has a light yellow undertone.
Not much product is required for coverage as the foundation glides over skin easily, meaning that the product can last at least several months before running out. However, it is not ideal for covering very prominent blemishes unless you build it up a bit. But even then, a concealer may still be required. As for its lasting power on the skin, I find that with my normal-combination skin, I can go almost the entire day without having to touch up.
Even thought the foundation has SPF10, I find that it does not make the skin look oily/too shiny, which is great if you are looking for a foundation with SPF in it. Additionally, since the product is oil-free and non-comedogenic, I find that it rarely, if at all breaks me out which is excellent as I have quite acne prone skin.
The foundation has a subtle fresh fragrance which might not be for everyone, especially not for those looking for a fragrance free foundation.
It comes in a glass bottle/container with a pump making it easy to dispense without wasting it. However, the glass can make the bottle a bit heavy/bulky, so may not be ideal for travelling.
I love Clarins and I love this product. I find it very light but gives a lot of coverage. It doesnt make me look like I have a lot of makeup on which I love. I like how the bottle lasts me a long time, I am definately going to stick with this product!
I have just started using this product recently, and I have to say, it's one of the best foundations I've ever used!
Normally, foundation would make my skin look flaky, and dried out, but this one actually illuminates everything, and my pores look visibly smaller!
coverage is only medium, but enough so that it doesn't show flakiness around my acne
the colour match is off the hook. I've never had a foundation where its tone perfectly matches my own!
Normally, the price I would pay for coverage on my face ranges from 15-25. This price of $35 was a litle too much for me, but I'm starting to realize that since it's for the face, high-end products are a must!
