Okay, so I know that there have been a lot of foundation reviews recently, but I’ve gotten bit by the foundation bug, and am in the new for something new… I’ve found different foundations for different days, and am still on the search for something perfect.
Guerlain’s new Lingerie de Peau Compact Foundation is a new powder formula that’s worth checking out if you have combination or oily skin.
It is medium coverage and has a very light texture and feel. It reminds me of why I love wearing powder foundations – they usually give amazing coverage and you can’t even feel that you’re wearing them. This one is also great for those who have oily skin – not because it holds up like a long-wearing foundation, but because it is so easy to re-apply and looks matte but with a slight radiance. It is my go-to touch-up foundation and one that I carry with me at all times. It’s perfect in the middle of the day or for applying just as you’re leaving work so that your skin looks great for the rest of your day.
The feel is smooth and very velvety. Like many powder foundation, this can look cakey if you over-apply so one layer is enough.
The other most amazing thing about this foundation? It photographs beautifully so it’s a must-have for a night out on the town!
