This is such a stunning foundation! This glow serum foundation with buildable medium coverage delivers up to a 24-hour, healthy natural-looking glow finish. This foundation is a double whammy. Not only does it make your makeup look bomb AF but it hydrates and smooths your skin while doing so. SAY WHAAA! Who doesn’t love a twofer! I feel like skin is really in and Lancome incorporating skincare into their foundation really just affirms the importance of good skincare. This is highlighted by the many ingredient call-outs and the Hyaluronic and Mandelic Acid in contains. This foundation is made for all skin types, yes, that includes us combination skinned cool cats, and it is suitable for sensitive skin. My only gripe is the shade I got was wayyyy too dark, but ... MoreThis is such a stunning foundation!

This foundation is made for all skin types, yes, that includes us combination skinned cool cats, and it is suitable for sensitive skin. My only gripe is the shade I got was wayyyy too dark, but that's my own doing and I don't fault the foundation or Lancome for that! I would purchase the Lancome Teint Idole Ultra Wear Care Glow Foundation… in the right color. haha. I would recommend it to my friends as well. I got this for free from bzzagent and Lancome in exchange for my honest review.

This is the foundation you NEED for hot, humid summer days!! I grabbed the on sale and am so happy I did! Wore this all day to an outdoor kids birthday party in 95 degree weather with humidity, and it didn't budge one bit! Not only that, but as someone with oily skin, it left me with natural glowing skin through all of that! No need to blot, minimal oxidation and no cakiness. Amazing. I wouldn't go for this in the middle of winter because it has a very matte finish to start, but it's going to be a go-to for summer for me. The packaging is so nice - a sleek, heavy glass bottle with a pump. With Estee Lauder Double Wear, which is a similar formula, you have to buy a pump for the same price. And as a long-time lover of their foundation, this Lancome formula performance ... MoreThis is the foundation you NEED for hot, humid summer days!! I grabbed the on sale and am so happy I did!

And as a long-time lover of their foundation, this Lancome formula performance has changed my mind and won me over. I will say that the shade match made me a little nervouse. Without getting a sample I ordered what I though would work based on shade recommendations, and it looked like the wrong shade, almost too light and pink, when I pumped it out. But once I put it on my skin, it was a perfect match! Definitely give this a try if you're looking for a longwear, high-performance formula with full buildable coverage. #lancome #foundation #beauty #makeup

This packaging feels so high end. There is something about the cap that is so satisfying; with the Lancôme rose logo on it. I found a good shade match for my fair yellow skin in 160 Ivoire W. I have applied this with a beautyblender and a brush. I find the brush, Sigma F80 or Real Technique Blend and Blur Brush, applies the foundation smoother and more evenly. It dries fast but not painfully so. I do half my face and then the other half with enough time to leisurely blend. The finish is matte and the wear time is pretty good. I didn’t notice much transfer and it fades with no patchiness. I still set my combination skin with powder but very lightly. I don’t think it’s critical to set with powder, unless you have very oily skin. So, I can see why this is a classic and ... MoreThis packaging feels so high end.

I don’t think it’s critical to set with powder, unless you have very oily skin. So, I can see why this is a classic and I think it’s amazing quality makeup but my qualm is that I didn’t see the full coverage claim manifest. I saw a light but build able coverage. This can be built up for more coverage but I don’t see the full coverage miracle. Otherwise, when I don’t have a crisis to cover up, I find this a reliable matte foundation best applied with a brush. Price point is typical for this luxury brand and I think it would last awhile. Also, contains a degree of sun protection without strong sunscreen scent or chalkiness.

I have a bit of a love hate relationship with this foundation, because there are things that I love about it and things that I think could be improved. My biggest complaint about this foundation is that it doesn't last all day. I find that my sweat and oils break it down quite easily and It also transfers even when I set it. I do however love the consistency of it . It is a thinner and more watery formula and blends out very easily. Despite this, it is full coverage and feels weightless on the skin. I do like the finish that it gives, almost a semi matte finish. If only the foundation lasted and didn't break down so easily I would actually really love it! Overall, I would say it is an okay foundation if you aren't going to be wearing it for long periods of time, ... MoreI have a bit of a love hate relationship with this foundation, because there are things that I love about it and things that I think could be improved.

I will not likely purchase this product again and there are other products I would recommend to people before this

For reference, I am in my mid 40s, have hyperpigmentation, fine lines and wrinkles, enlarged pores and normal skin (on hot days it turns more combination) I got a sample because of this foundation because I was curious about it and i liked it a lot. I consider this one a good foundation for me for the following reasons: PROS: - It works well on top of my skincare and sunscreen (I never rely on foundation for spf protection as you need to apply a lot) - It has SPF 15, which is not enough for your daily protection, but adds up to the spf that I always apply. - It has a beautiful natural finish (I don’t consider it matte) which is the kind of finish I prefer. - It is lightweight: it looks natural on top of the skin. - Good coverage: I don’t consider it full ... MoreFor reference, I am in my mid 40s, have hyperpigmentation, fine lines and wrinkles, enlarged pores and normal skin (on hot days it turns more combination) I got a sample because of this foundation because I was curious about it and i liked it a lot.

CONS: - The price: it is an expensive foundation, but I understand that it is expected for a luxury brand. - It didn’t last 24 hours on me. It may be because of my skincare or sunscreen, so I cannot blame the foundation. Maybe if I had applied it by itself, the finish would have been completely matte and the duration much longer. - Not transfer resistant, at least on me, but it may be because of the same reason I just described.

Amazing care and glow foundation Teint idole

Teint Idole care and glow. 24hr healthy glow skincare foundation. Goes on like silk and gives my skin a definite glow,covers up the redness and lifts it's texture and appearance. Felt light on my skin whilst still covering what it needed too. Iasts &lasts ,still feeling fresh after the full day of wear. Great for my combination sensitive mature skin. Amazing hydration &Glow, plus SPF 25. Shade 120N shade was lighter than expected but it really worked. This foundation is perfect for my skin and I think I just found my new favourite. And what makes it even better is it's SPF 25 and transfer - free . It's available in 30 shades and 3 undertones and suitable even for dry & sensitive skin.I received this product to test from Lancome how lucky is that. #Mylancomecommunity ... MoreTeint Idole care and glow. 24hr healthy glow skincare foundation.

Amazing!

Switched up my makeup routine after having issues with other makeup and a bad skin reaction to other top (and not inexpensive brands). Have oily t-zone, prone to spots and ultra sensitive skin (age- 35 plus). Been through *lots* of foundations but this is seriously the best one I’ve tried and is my new go-to foundation. Usually I need to blend two colours to find the perfect match with my skin. Not with ultra wear. Just one colour and a perfect match. Bought with the ultra wear concealer. Beware concealer shades come out slightly darker. Ended up going for the one lighter to match my foundation and the blend of the two is spot on. Coverage is full (applying first concealer with foundation brush, then foundation with damp beauty blender) but totally looks and feels ... MoreSwitched up my makeup routine after having issues with other makeup and a bad skin reaction to other top (and not inexpensive brands).

Very very impressed. Let’s hope Lancôme keep this blend going for some time or might have to buy a few to last me a couple of years, it’s that good. I have had issues with sensitivity of face creams with lancome but so glad I tired the makeup range. Very happy

Disappointed isn’t even the word

Irritated beyond belief which is only further exasperated by the standard template response Lancôme is giving to some of these comments. Your shade finder tool, Lancôme.. is simply terrible and should be removed. You know it.. we know it. If you are going to release a new formula for a tried, tested and more to the point LOVED foundation which supposedly has matches to the original, there should be a comparison table or SOMETHING to better assist us in finding our shade - whether you tell us a direct match or as close as possible. In this day & age, making existing clients have to go to the closest store which for some of us, isn’t so close, is an awful strategy which I’m sure would cost you.. particularly as you have taken it upon yourself to change the formula. ... MoreIrritated beyond belief which is only further exasperated by the standard template response Lancôme is giving to some of these comments.

Lastly, this foundation was inaccessible for a disgusting amount of time. I have quite literally used this foundation for years and wasn’t ready to give up on the product yet. Called Lancôme at the time and the representative was unaware of this citing delays with stock as the issue. Once again, shocking practice for those of us who have remained loyal not to mention reliant on our foundation and upkeep

New, but not improved

I have been to two different counters because the first time I went I felt that I did not receive a colour match service it was more of a if you used 005 the equivalent is 125w. The second experience was more positive however the colour match still wasn’t a match. Despite my protests to it being so different in colour when compared to the previous one and seeing it on my skin it looked orange. I was assured the formula was different but it would look the same once I added the rest of my makeup. It did not, it’s is practically orange, sits horribly in my face, was drying and made me look like I had flakey skin. Patchy in areas and congealed when I added my contour and blush. Sooo disappointing, I have used the previous one since my teens. I realised things evolve but ... MoreI have been to two different counters because the first time I went I felt that I did not receive a colour match service it was more of a if you used 005 the equivalent is 125w.

I’ve read the reviews and I would like to understand what research your product developers undertook because it appears your loyal customers are overwhelming disappointed.

Shocking new formula

I am a lifelong Lancôme user and have used the old formula of this foundation for more than 20 years. I have just bought my first bottle of the new formula and am so sorry that I did not use a sample first. I mistakenly had confidence in Lancôme that they would not ruin such a great product. Sadly they have and it is money down the drain as it is unwearable. Whereas the old formula looked completely natural but added a lovely highlight to the skin with some reflectors - me but better - the new formula does the complete opposite - me but worse. It gives an old lady completely Matt and powdery finish which settle in and magnifies any slight lines. The old formula glossed over these so that they disappeared. The new formula makes me look like an old woman. I cannot ... MoreI am a lifelong Lancôme user and have used the old formula of this foundation for more than 20 years.

I have tried the alternative product which is supposed to give more glow but this is more like a bb cream - probably ok for summer - but still does not give half the glow of the original foundation. Lancôme what are you doing I am deeply unimpressed and I am clearly not the only one. You are losing lifelong customers.
