    I received this foundation for free to review, and frankly, my hopes were not that high. I've tried foundation sticks in the past and have never truly been a fan. This one was a bit different though. The Lancome foundation stick claimed to be oil free, smudge resistant, and lasts for 24 hours. Let's talk about the pros. The foundation was very pigmented, so you didn't need much to get decent coverage. It had a nice matte finish once you were done blending. It glides on super easily without any tugging or movement of the skin. Cons: The smell reminded me of crayons. It definitely did not last 24 hours for me. Maybe at least 6-7 hours before I felt like a gross oily mess. I have very oily skin and this didn't stand up to it well. By the end of the night all the foundation around my nose was pretty much gone. I love that the coverage is very natural, but buildable. It won't go to full coverage no matter how much you put, it stands at a good light-medium coverage foundation. Would I repurchase? If I had normal to combination skin, absolutely. Because I have really oily skin, I found this didn't work the best for me.

    I received the Lancome Teint Idole in the shade 410 bisque (W) to be used as a highlighter and it is absolutely wonderful. It is lightweight and doesn't smudge easily. It surprisingly lasted me so long so I was very happy about that as well. The packaging is also so convenient for on the go, I can just pop it in my purse and retouch as needed throughout the day.

    I received the #LancomeTIUstick free from ChickAdvisor.

    Thank you Chickadvisor for the fabulous opportunity to test out the new Lancôme Teint Idole Ultra Makeup Foundation Stick. I received No. 460 Suede in my perfect contour shade.

    The Teint Idol Makeup Stick was my first time using a cream contour product as opposed to my normal powders. It was very easy to use and blended evenly. It really gave a nice soft but matte finish and it had great staying power throughout the day. It felt very light on my skin and not "cakey" at all. The stick format of this product is fabulous for contouring because you can apply your contour precisely where you want it, blend and done! Oh ~ added bonus it contains SPF too!

    I was surprised at how well this worked for me. As a darker skinned girl, it's hard to find a colour that's matches my skin but this one matches to a T. I love how creamy it is, for a stick foundation it applies very well on the skin. It leaves a nice natural finish to the face. I have combo skin that tends to get really oily in the T zone. There was a bit of shine at the end of the day, but that is normal. It doesn't feel thick or heavy, it has good coverage and its not sticky on the face.

    I received this product free to try.

    Love how it is a make up stick you can apply like lipstick. Very convenient especially for my sister who has sensitive skin and needs strong protection on her face from the sun. This saves her a lot of time and effort

    I received this product through the Product Review Club. I just got it in the mail on Wednesday so I've only had a couple days to try it out but my first impressions are amazing. The shade matched my skin almost perfectly. I was a bit skeptical as I have used drugstore-brand foundation sticks before and they always made my skin very greasy and it felt very thick. I was amazed with how this product applied and blended so smoothly. Once blending, it felt like powder on my face. I apply streaks on my face and blend with a Sephora Airbrush brush. I have some dry patches on my forehead and I found that it stuck to the dry parts a bit. I usually purchase Sephora foundation for around $30 so this is a bit more expensive than I am used to. Depending on how long the stick lasts, it may be a good value for this foundation. If it lasts a long time I will definitely re-purchase and I would also recommend this to friends!

    I received this from ChickAdvisor Review Club #gotitfree. I was sent a lighter shade to apply as highlighter but I thought in order to get a full-on review, I need to apply it all over. Fortunately, the shade wasn't too light and I was able to do that. This foundation stick is very easy to apply. I apply it with a flat top kabuki brush and it is a breeze to blend it out. What I love about this foundation stick is I don't have to set it with any setting powder. I have oily combo skin and this foundation is a satin finish. Not totally matte and not luminous. The coverage is medium and what I love about this is it has the coverage I want but it doesn't make me look like I have tons of makeup on. Only downside of this is the price. It is quite pricey for the amount of product you get. But other than that, I would give this a thumbs up.

    I was lucky enough to receive a contour shade in this product courtesy of Lancome and ChickAdvisor. The colour was spot-on and it blended beautifully. It wasn't too oily and didn't oxidize or transfer throughout the day. The price is a tad steep but definitely worth it! I recommend this for anyone looking for a great, convenient, portable way to do their foundation, highlighter, or contouring on the go.

    I received the Lancome Teint Idole Ultra Foundation stick in Ivory. The packaging is super cute, but for the expensive price tag it feels quite cheap compared to other foundation sticks. The formula itself it very smooth and glides on easier when you apply it too the skin. I use a beauty sponge to blend out the foundation all over my skin. The coverage is quite nice, i'd say its a light to medium.

    I wouldn't say that it is transfer free or smudge resistant seeing as i ended up with foundation on my scarf while wearing this product.

    I also noticed that it did settle into fine lines and accentuated my dry patches. I would recommend this product for something with more of an oily skin type.

    I found it really easy to come up with an opinion of this foundation. I was sent the shade Bisque (N) 330 as a contour shade for my pale neutral skin. This colour is so orange on me which is really unfortunate because it specified neutral undertones. What were they thinking calling it neutral! I mananged to make it work as a bronzer. I do really like it for that. The first time I felt this foundation, I didn't think i'd like it. In fact, I don't think I would have bought it if I had felt it in the store. But I ended up really liking it! It's very fluid and silicone-like yet provides amazing coverage. It filled in my pore BEAUTIFULLY. It's very easy to blend and just looks good on the skin. The only problem I have found is it creases after a few hours and slides around on my nose. I wouldn't wear this as a bride, but if I wanted to look really good for an hour or two, this would be my choice.

    The price though... it kills me. I have used a tiny amount of product and the corner of the stick is already worn down.
