Features of L’Oréal Paris foundations

Foundation is the fastest and easiest way to bring your skin to a condition close to ideal. Moreover, modern foundation creams can not only mask imperfections and visually change the skin for the better, but also take care of it.

Nika Kislyak, official makeup artist of L’Oréal Paris:

The composition of foundation creams has changed so much over the past 10 years that choosing a product with a care function: moisturizing, with a sun filter, anti-aging effect, for problem skin is not difficult.

In autumn and winter, it is necessary to use a foundation, because in addition to masking and correction, it is responsible for protection.”

L'Oréal Paris's line of foundations is frequently updated. Now there are only two items, and this is enough to satisfy the needs of any skin type. Our main desire is for the skin to look flawless. And both products do it, each in its own way. They are united by several advantages:

do not create the effect of a mask on the face;

merge with the skin;

do not clog pores;

have a large palette of shades.

Long-lasting mattifying foundation “Infaillible 24 hours matte finish”

Suitable for everyone, but it will be especially appreciated by those with combination and oily skin, for whom stability and a matte effect are defining qualities. This foundation has several other important qualities.

Light coverage. Some foundations with a matte finish and long-lasting formula create the impression of a mask. This product is not one of them: the texture is invisible and imperceptible on the face.

Uniform distribution. The composition contains a durable polymer and soft filler, which provide a smooth and even coating.

Comfortable texture. The formula is 1/3 water, does not clog pores, and allows the skin to breathe.

Foundation is one of the main cosmetics, without which it is impossible to do even the simplest nude makeup. It not only masks all imperfections and evens out the complexion, but also perfectly protects the skin from sun rays in the summer and from frosty air in the winter.

In this article we will look at the palette of shades of L'Oreal foundation, which has occupied a leading position for a long time.

Peculiarities

Products from L’Oreal regularly delight their customers with various new products. The foundation of this brand can be selected for absolutely any skin type and a wide variety of shades.

In addition, manufacturers have taken care of the quality of cosmetics. A positive point for buyers of L'Oreal products is the affordable price.

Palette of shades

This brand has several lines, in each of which you can find a tone that suits you. Since manufacturers have developed a new innovative technology, which means that new foundations can independently adapt to a certain skin type, accordingly, the choice of shades has become somewhat smaller.

L'Oreal Alliance Perfect

L'Oreal Alliance Perfect foundation has 9 shades in its line, which can perfectly adapt to a specific skin, thanks to the reflective particles present. The palette includes pink and beige shades.

L'Oreal Infaillible 24h

L'Oreal Infable 24 foundation has received a very large number of positive reviews, as it is able to lay down in a very thin layer, which does not create the effect of a mask on the face. This product perfectly masks imperfections and does not require the use of powder. The palette of shades is quite large - from the lightest to natural beige.

L'Oreal Infaillible 240

L'Oreal Infable 240 foundation can not only perfectly mask imperfections and moisturize the skin, but also smooth out unevenness. In addition, using this cream, which is saturated with oxygen, the skin does not become clogged and is able to breathe. This product also has good durability, which allows you to look good throughout the day.

L'Oreal Paris Nude Magique

On the Internet you can find many positive reviews about L'Oreal Nude Magic foundation, which in its consistency resembles a balm. It perfectly masks enlarged pores, smooths out wrinkles and creates the effect as if there is no makeup on the face. This product does not pollute the skin and maintains the necessary moisture balance.

L'Oreal Lumi Magique

If you don’t know which cosmetic product to choose in order to disguise all the imperfections on your face, but at the same time, the texture should be light and invisible, then feel free to choose L’Oreal Lumi Magic foundation, about which you probably won’t find a single negative review. It is very easy to apply and distribute, and it can give your skin the perfect glow, masking all the imperfections.

L'Oreal True Match

L'Oreal True Match foundation has won many fans who leave only positive reviews, because it can not only disguise fine wrinkles, but also hide age spots. Plus, it gives your skin a matte finish without the need for loose powder. True Match will protect your face from ultraviolet rays and will delight you with flawless makeup throughout the day.

How to choose the right shade

In order for the foundation to hide all imperfections, but at the same time look natural, you should be very careful when purchasing it. You need to choose it not only by skin color, but also by type.

1. Even if you plan to order products online, go to the store and take a few of the most suitable shades (cosmetic stores always have testers) and apply them to the back of your hand. Do not forget that in daylight the color will look completely different, so it is better to test the foundation near a window. You should not choose it a shade lighter or darker.

1. Once you have decided on one color, apply a small amount to your face and go outside, so you will see how it will look directly during makeup.

1. If you are completely satisfied with the end result, then you have chosen the ideal tone; if not, try looking for something else. Don't be afraid to ask consultants for help if you don't quite understand what shade of cosmetic product is closest to your skin.

How to use it correctly

You can apply the foundation in several ways:

If you have dry skin, then it will be convenient for you to apply the beauty product using a sponge. The movements should be patting, so you can smooth out all the scales and distribute it well; if it smears, the skin will peel off and the tone will turn out uneven.

Ladies with oily skin should apply the beauty product using patting movements with their fingers. You can also use a foundation brush, but it is not convenient to use on all areas. If pimples are present, they should be covered with concealer.

Reviews

We collected real reviews from women about L'Oreal mattifying foundation, and also found out an expert's opinion about popular new products.

Albina, 27 years old

I would like to leave my review about the mattifying foundation L'Oreal Infable and Alliance Perfect, since I was lucky enough to try these two beauty products from a popular manufacturer. When I started having freckles, which I haven't had all my life, I first purchased Maybelline foundation, which caught my attention due to its design.

It applied quite easily, but was absolutely unstable. When it ran out, I decided to spend a little more money and bought Max Factor foundation, but I completely threw it away because it caused an allergic reaction in me. When I didn’t even think about finding anything worthwhile, the consultant offered me a remedy from L’Oreal, which I am incredibly happy about.

In addition to the fact that it carefully hides all the unevenness, my freckles are now almost invisible, and the UV protection prevents their appearance. It applies very easily and lasts throughout the day.

Expert opinion: Of course, the presented lines are a very good choice, especially for UV protection. However, I would recommend that you use extra sunscreen if you don't like your freckles that much.

Victoria, 34 years old

Previously, I used the Bourgeois foundation, about which I had the most positive reviews, but when it was not available in the store, I purchased L'Oreal alliance perfect perfect fusion foundation, which I now use regularly. A significant advantage for me is its smoothing effect, which will no longer be superfluous at my age. Plus, despite my acne-prone skin, it covers it up beautifully without the need for concealer.

Expert opinion: I also advise you to try the L'Oreal infallible foundation, about which you can also read a lot of good reviews.

Yana, 25 years old

Could I have ever thought that my problem could be hidden with the help of cosmetics? No! Until I read the reviews and tried the L'Oreal Infable foundation. A wonderful product at an affordable price.

Expert opinion: This cream does its job perfectly thanks to its innovative formula that carefully masks all imperfections.

Video

In the presented video, the author reviewed the two most popular brands of foundation. Lily will tell you about her preferences when choosing a product.

This video provides a review of L'Oreal Alliance Perfect cream. The author of the video will demonstrate the first application of the product and share his review of its durability.

Dear women, what foundation do you use? Do you like the line from L'Oréal?

Girls, hello. Today I will test for you another foundation that was actively advertised on TV. And, by the way, when I saw the advertisement, I bought it. And I regret it! My mother told me not to believe everything that is shown on TV, but we learn from our mistakes.





We are talking about the foundation from LOREAL ALLIANCE PERFECT - a perfect fusion. But he doesn’t merge with her at all. So, first things first.
As always, I took the lightest shade. The color suited me. The color of the neck did not differ from the painted face. It’s a pity that there were no testers in the store, and I took the word of the sales assistant. By the way, I bought it from the same Magnit Cosmetic about which I wrote a review.
I don’t do such stupid things anymore, I save my hard-earned money, I buy only when I can try foundation, otherwise I might be left without pants. ))))





About the cream

The consistency of the cream is liquid, easily distributed on the skin using any method of application: with a brush, sponge and even with your fingers. There are no complaints about this. After application, a matte skin effect is created. And you don’t even have to use powder after it. Probably, the manufacturer was counting on this - to make life easier for its customers, they say, you applied it and forgot, because any further touch to the skin of the face, as if you wanted to scratch your nose with a brush or your hands, the foundation rubs off. This is the first time I've seen this.





The LOREAL brand seems to be good, and I have a lot of products from this brand that I like, but this product is unique in its properties. And the seller also said that this is the most purchased product in their store. Blah blah blah. Then, when I went to another store for another foundation, because this one was impossible to use, the consultant didn’t even recommend it to me, although I asked how you liked loreal alliance perfect. Therefore, also choose the right stores with consultants competent in their field.





The volume is standard 30 ml, stylish, beautiful glass bottle with a convenient dispenser. And in the first minutes the face really looks perfect, but as soon as you go over it with a brush, all that remains of perfect makeup is its name. And I’m not exaggerating now. All of the above advantages are worth only two stars, may Loreal forgive me.

What's left of the cream at the end of the day?

All that remains of the foundation is its name. He couldn't even stand my five hours. Didn't reapply. Just as I put on my makeup in the morning, I show my face in the evening.
Based on the test results, I gave more minuses than pluses. Galina Gadzhieva does not recommend Alliance Perfect foundation from Loreal =)
