L'Oreal Infallible 24hr Fresh Wear #120 Vanilla Foundation 30ml

If you are looking for an affordable medium to full coverage foundation, look no further! The only reason I did not give this foundation 5 stars is because of the fragrance. I personally don’t like fragrance in my facial skincare or makeup. I have tried a lot of foundations from the drugstore, Ulta and Sephora. This one is my favorite despite the scent. I have combo oily skin, a few fine lines, hyperpigmentation and visible pores. On me this foundation looks like skin. It’s not cakey and doesn’t sink into my lines/pores. Those that take flash photos should know that the spf in this formula can give you flashback. It isn’t completely transfer resistant but this lasts me an entire work day. I put it on at 5am and take it off around 7pm. When I went on vacation this is ... MoreIf you are looking for an affordable medium to full coverage foundation, look no further!

I try new foundations all the time but I always come back to this one.

After I saw all of the positive reviews online and YouTube from my favorite beauty gurus, I decided to try this foundation for myself. This formula is very similar to the L’Oréal Infallible Pro Matte foundation but a little bit less coverage. I applied this after using the L’Oréal Infallible Pro Matte Lock primer and then set it with my Laura Mercier translucent setting powder. After wear this foundation for about 10 hours my face looked slightly dewy but not too oily compared to the way it looked when I first applied it. It didn’t transfer very much onto my mask and I only needed to use my oil blotting papers twice throughout the day. The formula reminds me a lot of my Too Faced Born This Way foundation (original formula) and blends in perfectly with my skin tone. ... MoreAfter I saw all of the positive reviews online and YouTube from my favorite beauty gurus, I decided to try this foundation for myself.

The formula reminds me a lot of my Too Faced Born This Way foundation (original formula) and blends in perfectly with my skin tone. If you wear the shade Warm Beige in the Too Faced foundation I recommend you choose the shade Sun Beige in this foundation. This L’Oréal foundation does contain a mild, pleasant floral fragrance so if you have very sensitive skin or are sensitive to smells, this maybe a drawback for you. I recommend this foundation for those looking for a natural finish that is long lasting especially during the summertime while wearing a mask. I will definitely repurchase this again in the future.

Over the years, my skin has become dry, especially after taking Accutane. I have used this foundation for years, and I will say that it is becoming a little bit too drying for me, but it does not crack or peel. Just makes my skin feel a little stiff. It is completely matte and stays on all day. I paired it with the Charlotte Tilbury Flawless Filter in the photo attached and it gives a nice glow underneath the foundation. I feel like you can’t go wrong with it. I removed one star because it is a little bit too drying for me. I have swam in it, sweat, etc, and it stays on my face all day!! Pretty incredible for the price. I whole heartedly recommend for those that are oilier!

I absolutely LOVE. this product. I started using it when it ended up going viral on TikTok and ever since then I have not switched my foundation which has been over a year ago now. I absolutely love the finish on this luck. It is great coverage but not to the point where it looks Kiki and super lightweight And even without primer doesn’t sink into the skin too much. It also doesn’t get all absorbed by the beauty blender that I use and a little product goes a long way. As you can see in the video I sent it has an amazing pump as well and very good amount of product comes out every time which with one pump usually covers a half or more of my face so this product is really good lasting and stays on great throughout the day doesn’t come off with day-to-day stuff or sweating

As a pro, I love it! Hits all the marks

I've been a makeup artist since 2006 and get discounts on most pro makeup lines, so when I like a drugstore foundation, it's a winner. It is a thin consistency but nicely pigmented for medium buildable coverage and dries to a satin natural finish. I'm very fair and found no oxidation for myself or anyone else, some powders can cause that though. This would be best selling even if it were a $40+ luxury brand, it's that good.Because it is thin, it will not blur pores or cover texture, you'll want a thicker full coverage foundation and/or primer for that. A dampened beauty blender (love an AOA Pawpaw) is ideal application, beware of harder sponges like orange Real Techniques. Prep is always well hydrated and exfoliated skin. I saw bad reviews stating this looks bad ... MoreI've been a makeup artist since 2006 and get discounts on most pro makeup lines, so when I like a drugstore foundation, it's a winner.

I saw bad reviews stating this looks bad on dry skin. You shouldn't be dealing with dry skin when you put on foundation, you need to address that in skincare first: thicker moisturizer and/or oil at night, a lighter moisturizer before foundation that leaves no residue the foundation will fight with. I recommend CeraVe PM for that. The Ordinary Glycolic toner every couple of days will keep you exfoliated.If you need extra coverage, I recommend using a liquid concealer (Elf 16hr or Tarte Shapetape) applied haphazardly to dark areas and blemishes first, then allow to dry down a bit before bouncing on this foundation. The bouncing and letting the concealer wet wont move it, and it'll provide extra coverage only where needed.

Beautiful foundation, horrible breakouts

The finish and lasting power on this is incredible. I want to keep reaching for it so bad, but I have noticed that is causes me severe breakouts after every wear. It's so unfortunate because it's such a beautiful formula. It's long lasting, light weight, natural finish, good coverage. It's honestly one of the best foundations I have used in a long time. Unfortunately, I'm going to have to give this away or toss it. If your skin isn't sensitive, then maybe give this a try. If you have acne pron skin however, I would stay away from this product. I wish the didn't ruin it with the fragrance :-(

Good drugstore foundation.

I'm usually not a foundation person but I was looking for a new complexion product that didn't cost an arm and a leg and ended up seeing this foundation, so I bought it. While applying it, I noticed it spread very easily and nicely and didn't dry down too fast. It has a very natural finish that runs a little bit closer to being matte. However, while applying it, I noticed it had fragrance. It was nothing overpowering, it was actually pretty pleasant, however if fragrance is a turn off for you because of potential skin irritation or breakouts, then I wouldn't buy this. Also, as stated earlier, this foundation runs closer to matte, so it definitely accentuated my pores and scarring more than a dewier foundation would. Also, if you're like me and you're on the ... MoreI'm usually not a foundation person but I was looking for a new complexion product that didn't cost an arm and a leg and ended up seeing this foundation, so I bought it.

Also, if you're like me and you're on the tanner/darker side of the spectrum, the undertones can get a little weird with a lot of the foundations having very warm to almost red undertones. It also has sunscreen in it, which yay for SPF, but nay to oxidation. Overall, as far as drugstore foundation goes, it's honestly as good as you're gonna get, but with all of the potential cons, I personally would repurchase and if you're considering it, I'd sit it out.

Holy Grail status for me

I started using this when it first released as my previous holy grail (total cover) drug store foundation for high coverage seemed to have changed its formula (or my skin just decided it didn't like it anymore) and it was apparently discontinued. I only use this when I want a decent amount of coverage but to still maintain a fairly natural "skin like" look.The finish is beautiful. People frequently ask me what foundation I use when I am wearing this.You can get higher, near full coverage with a brush but I prefer a damp beauty blender which gives me medium coverage. It is also buildable if that your thing.The shade range is good but some of the darker shades that I have picked up for summer do oxidize whereas my go to shade, 420 does not oxidize at all.I ... MoreI started using this when it first released as my previous holy grail (total cover) drug store foundation for high coverage seemed to have changed its formula (or my skin just decided it didn't like it anymore) and it was apparently discontinued.

Looks great but not for the skin!

My mom and I really wanted to try this foundation AND the powder of this foundation since it has been going viral for it airbrush affect on the skin. I really liked this foundation because it did give a natural look. The coverage is about medium but is very much buildable to be full coverage. I really enjoyed how this LOOKED on my skin and is very very beautiful. As for skin on the other hand, it did not react well to this foundation at all. My skin type is about combination to oily and I do have very very sensitive skin. I noticed that I did get little bumps on my skin that indicated that my skin didn't reaction well to the formula. It did cause me to breakout overall so I had to stop using it immediately. My mom has also informed me that the foundation was also ... MoreMy mom and I really wanted to try this foundation AND the powder of this foundation since it has been going viral for it airbrush affect on the skin.
