Lancôme Teint Idole Ultra 24H Foundation

Foundation is a product I am quite picky about and I am not the kind of girl who has bottles of the stuff around. In the Summer months I prefer a tinted moisturiser and then as the cooler weather arrives, something with a little more coverage, but not too much because I really dislike that caked on feel. However, for the last few months, I have been reaching for the Lancôme Teint Idole Ultra 24H Foundation in shade 021 Beige Jasmin which I was matched too and it is not a product I thought I would like or even ever try, but I absolutely love it and here is why.

Lancôme Teint Idole Ultra 24H Foundation is a full coverage but incredibly light foundation even though it has an SPF15, which is always welcomed. The formula which has what is called Eternalsoft Polymers, allow for an increased comfort level with ultra‑long wear. Then there are the NAI pigments which help to maintain consistent pH levels with the skin and in turn, this helps the colour stays true all day. The two interesting and perhaps most important ingredients are Perlite and Silica because they are two of the most effective oil‑absorbing ingredients and as someone with combination skin which leans to the oily side, excess oil can be a right pain.

The foundation comes with the claims of lasting up to twenty-four hours but unless you are planning to sleep in your makeup, I am not sure those are claims I can ever say are true. What I can say is that applying it in a morning does see it last right through into the evening, with only a minimum touch up needed around my nose, that in itself gets a huge thumbs up. The application is an absolute dream, it is streak free and I buff it onto my skin, after moisturising and priming using my Real Techniques Buffing Brush. It also covers the redness on my cheek amazingly, to the point where I am not grabbing for my green colour corrector, it also doesn't cling to dry skin in my experience and what I love love love about this foundation is that my face does not feel as though I have trowelled it on, always a winner in my book.

This is the first foundation I have ever used from Lancome and I am so impressed with it and am glad I have been lucky enough to give it a try. There are around 40 different shades of this foundation and usually retails for around £30 but LookFantastic.
