L'Oreal Paris Makeup Infallible Up to 32 Hour Fresh Wear Lightweight Foundation, 390 Rose Pearl, 1 Fl Oz, Packaging May Vary

I’m someone who rarely wore makeup. I didn’t like the way it felt on my face and I only wore it on special occasions. However, I’m over 45 now and have a few freckles and dark spots and thought I should start a skincare and makeup routine. I ran into problems trying to find a shade match in the beauty store. After doing a lot of swatching at the beauty store and finding some foundations that seemed close, I was disappointed that one of the better marching ones oxidized and turned orange/bronze on me after a few hours. I tried again with Nyx Blur and L’Oreal Infalliable. The Nyx was terrible on my skin. Wrong shade, but it also looked weird - runny and patchy. The L’Oreal Infalliable 460 Golden Beige was very close, but just a hair orangey to me after wearing it. I decided to go a shade down and switched to a neutral undertone rather than warm, because this foundation was perfect in every other way - it had less oxidation than the previous Maybelline powder foundation I tried, it had better coverage (medium to full), and it was soft and light on my skin. I took a chance and ordered the 455 Natural Buff. I’m in love!! This is the closest shade match I’ve found. I put it on my face and it looked good. I decided to try some on my neck, which can sometimes look slightly lighter than my face, and the makeup on my neck was almost imperceptible from my skin. When I showed my partner my makeup and sent photos to my best friend, both said the foundation looked exactly like my skin and it didn’t look like I was wearing makeup. The quality of the makeup is good. There is a very slight tackiness to it, but it’s not unpleasant. It also seems more hydrating compared to the Nyx makeup. It’s also easy to build up. I can wear it as medium coverage with one coat or full coverage if I layer more on. When I use two coats, it looks very nice and smooth in photos. I would happily buy this again and recommend it to others. This is probably the best quality of makeup I’ve used, apart from a brief period of using bare minerals. And I like that L’Oreal offers a nice shade range so it’s easier to find your matching color. Having fair, olive-toned skin can be hard to find the right match for!

This has been my go-to foundation for almost two years now. It’s more of a matte finish which I prefer and it was very easy to find my shade match. This foundation is a buildable coverage. It dries quickly, so you do need to move fast when blending. However, since it is more of a matte finish, I wouldn’t recommend it to those with super dry skin.

This makeup is truly amazing. I was laying on my stomach, my face was face down on a table in the dr's office for about 30 minutes. when I sat up I noticed there was no makeup on the white paper that they cover the table with. I really expected to see a mess when I got up, but I was amazed that I didn't see any at all. I was changing positions constantly trying to get more comfortable and I rubbed my face many times on the paper. That made me a believer of this makeup. I'm 73 and my facial skin has become dryer, I was always combination/normal when younger. I put on a very small amount of moisturizer before applying the makeup and this works perfect for me. I actually look healthy and a bit younger with this makeup. it does not crease and looks very natural and covers my age spots very well. I am fair to light skin tone blonde/silver hair with pale green eyes and the shade 411 has worked out quite well. I like a little cool tone and this is not too pink. I don't know why anyone would not like this makeup unless they have very dry skin and their not using a moisturizer. Loreal has made the perfect make up and I'm ditching the expensive Estee lauder double wear forever. I don't think I will ever have to search for another makeup. I'm so glad I found this, I think it's even better than the double wear and so affordable. Loreal, thank you for a great product, keep up the great work.

Foundation has a good full buildable coverage that lasted throughly the day. Did not oxidize! However removing star because this particular bottle has the worst chemical smell. Going to try setting with a more fragrant setting spray to see if that covers the smell or else I will be returning it unfortunately.

I love this foundation so much - I keep going back to it and have for many years. it applies with a natural texture and provides a slightly glowy, very healthy look while still having good coverage and being buildable. it's not very thick - it's like applying moisturizer, really. I think I find it works better WITHOUT primer (but definitely WITH setting spray!). it also doesn't tend to cake up above the lip and on the sides of your nose, and it's not bad about settling into lines around the eyes, though after a long day, I will kind of blend it a bit around the eyes - it can only do so much! it smells lovely and the fragrance dissipates after you've had it on a few minutes. dries pretty quickly, but not so quickly you can't spend a little bit of time blending just right. I've also applied it thickly, waited 30-45 seconds, THEN blended it out when I've got areas that need extra coverage. I usually use a fluffy brush to apply Revlon ColorStay powder lightly over it to set it and give a touch of mattification to my nose, chin and forehead and to set the foundation more on my jawline... before applying setting spray - usually e.l.f. Stay All Night on my cheeks, forehead and neck, and Urban Decay All-Nighter over my eyes.

I have waiting long to receive my product then it came, good thing I saw the expiration prior using. Expiration dated Feb 2022! 🥵😤

If L'Oreal Paris ever stops making this, I will be in trouble. Why? Because in the last 16/17 years, I have tried many - and I mean MANY - foundations by many brands and even different lines within those brands. From drugstore brands to high ends and everything in between...and this is my absolute match made in heaven! There's a brand from Sephora that's a match too, and I like it for the exact same reasons, but it's much pricier and this L'Oreal Infallible foundation is my exact match, has the same full coverage, very light weight and very long lasting wear, AND a GREAT value. So this is the one I go for. I have used brands like Mac, Cover FX, Clinique etc....and for the price and quality this one is my absolute favourite and its the ONLY ONE I have been using for almost two years now. No plans to switch! I go through the bottles pretty frequently, because I wear it almost everyday (office, going out etc). From morning until I take it off (whenever that may be. Half an hour to 10+ hours, depending on the day), it STAYS PUT. No caking, no smudging, no trouble whatsoever. I use a primer, colour corrector, and this foundation, then set it with powder and that's it. I struggle with dark circles and this foundation helps with that, too. Even when I don't use a colour corrector or a primer (because who always remembers the primer?), it does the job just as good. A little always goes a long way as well, so that's another good thing. The foundation really stays put and I have to wash my face well to get it completely off....which is a very good thing in my book. There's nothing I dislike more about makeup that doesn't stay put and requires repeat application. I highly recommend it. Before you buy it online though, make sure you know your exact shade. I was buying it from the store after finding my match by consulting with a beauty advisor there, then I found this on Amazon, so I got it from here and got a subscription since I know this is the one I'll be using until L'Oreal forces me not to!

La he usado dos veces y se nota muy bien, la cobertura para mí es media a completa (si se puede modular sin verse como máscara), mi piel es mixta, la zona T es muy grasa sobre todo la nariz y frente no me controla al 100 los brillos pero por el precio me parece bien, no me parece que mejore la apariencia de los poros pero tampoco los acentúa, creo que tiene muy buena duración yo la uso por 12 hrs (por mi trabajo) con dos retoques al día en mi zona T, un plus es que no sientes la cara tan pesada como con la colorstay de Revlon.

This is hands down the best foundation ever. I’ve tried many (Makeup Forever, Fenty, Pat McGrath, Shiseido) and this one beats them all. It is priced higher than other drugstore foundations, but it’s still a steal for the formula. I have dry, flaky skin in areas from acne treatment but oily areas too. This foundation balances all those areas, leaving a natural skinlike finish, not dewy or matte. It doesn’t enhance texture or flakiness. The texture is quite liquidy and lightweight and you can’t feel it at all on your skin. I like to pump it on the back of my hand and stipple it in with the Elf Ultimate Blending Brush. It has a nice scent, but not overpowering. I can’t smell it unless I’m purposely trying to get a whiff. The longevity is the standout. It’s transfer proof and literally looks the same, if not better, by the end of the day. I went snowboarding for 6 hours and this did not transfer onto my helmet, did not even enhance dryness that I get from being out in the cold. If you’re on the fence, get it.

Overall it’s a beautiful product, a great alternative to the more expensive brands but I do find on my oily skin that it doesn’t want to fully stick in certain places but I’ve honestly never had better coverage from a drug store foundation. I would say this is the best one you can get from your local shop!!
