A fresh and natural foundation!
I really like how lightweight this formula is! It has buildable coverage that leaves my skin looking fresh and natural. It applies evenly and blends very well with a sponge. I was impressed with how long it lasted on my skin, especially on days when I was wearing a face mask. I don’t mind the scent of the foundation, but it was quite noticeable even a few hours after applying it, which made me wonder if others can notice it too. The shade was a great match for my skin and truly a neutral colour. I was very impressed by this because most neutral shades still tend to lean to the warm or cool side.
Light coverage, but scented product
It’s a light foundation and I found it provided minimal coverage. If you are looking for a foundation to even out skin tone with a light weight feeling, this is the foundation for you. Pros and cons list is below,
Pros:
• Its super light and no issues with skin irritation • Easy to blend
• Bottle is easy to use and pumps out a good portion (no waste)
• Provides a nice dewy finish, which provides a nice glow on your skin
Cons:
• It’s REALLY scented
• Minimal coverage, did not cover any of my red spots
• It doesn’t provide good coverage for fine line or wrinkles
I also found that as I have dry skin, it didn’t absorb as easily into my skin as other foundations and looked flaky.
The product is average and you could easily find cheaper and better alternatives
Natural tan glow
I have sensitive skin with light blemishes and enlarged pores. I felt like it was the perfect light/med coverage that i needed. There was a scent when i applied it on. I'm not sure how to explain it, i think its supposed to be non scented. i wouldn't say its particularly a good scent but it does go away when it sets. It felt really nice on my skin, it was a bit tacky at the beginning but it eventually set. I had worn this during korean bbq, even with all the oils from the bbq, my face did not feel oily when i got home. The foundation did not wear off even after dinner and wearing a mask.
Next time I would try 3 Light since i prefer a light dewy look, natural blended in with my summer tan hence the natural tan glow.
Lovely light foundation
Great foundation, if you are looking for light coverage - left skin looking smooth and glowy. It has a luxurious french brand feel to it, and not heavy on your skin. Love the cute little bottle with the gold cap. I would love to try other Guerlain makeup items - they are so nice.
Medium Coverage Foundation with a Dewy Glow
Unless you're re-purchasing, I would suggest you try the product out in the store before buying in order to get the right shade. I picked the O3W - natural warm. I thought it would be good for me, but it's a bit lighter than I would prefer. It will be good for winter though, when my skin tone is lighter. The foundation itself comes out of a pump. It's medium coverage - it won't cover dark blemishes, but is lighter than thicker foundations. I like this aspect because I don't like a heavy makeup look. The thing I like the most is the fresh dewy glow that this foundation gives off.
