Yves Saint Laurent All Hours Foundation B70

Got a sample of this foundation from Sephora. I had no expectations for this foundation and I didn't know what to expect as I never heard of it before. Starting off the foundation card of samples I got were all much darker than my shade. According to the Sephora website, my shade is BD40. The lightest shade I got in this card was B50 and the second darkest was B65. Unfortunately, I didn't pay attention to the shades and just applied B65 Bronze all over which was wayy too dark for me and then I layered it with B50 to lighten the color. So the color was off for me on this product but I'm assuming it would be fine if I had the right color.I instantly loved applying this foundation!

It didn't feel like any other foundation as it wasn't too watery or too thick. It just went onto my skin so nicely and felt so refreshing because my skin felt like skin and not makeup. I honestly didn't even want to take it off at the end of the day because it was so comfortable. And it also has sunscreen coverage of SPF 20 which is at least something to keep me sun safe! Overall I loved this product however it is out of my budget for makeup however I loved it so much that I think I would be willing to splurge a little more!

YSL make some impressive foundation formulas and this one might be the most impressive of all. I generally steer clear of full coverage foundations because they often sit on top of my skin and look heavy and unflattering. But I also suffer from discolouration, so my redness does shine right through light and even medium coverage foundations. Finding a full coverage foundation that doesn’t look like a mask or look patchy on my combination skin is like searching for a unicorn, but All Hours might just be it. This is definitely full coverage so you have to work fast before it dries down to an almost velvet/powder finish, but it covers nicely and doesn’t look flaky or uneven. Now, I prep my skin thoroughly beforehand with lots of moisture, which might be the trick to ... MoreYSL make some impressive foundation formulas and this one might be the most impressive of all.

Now, I prep my skin thoroughly beforehand with lots of moisture, which might be the trick to this. It sets so well that the only spot I set with powder is my under eye area. This stays put and doesn’t break apart as the day goes on. A little oil shines through by end of day, but it still covers beautifully. It also doesn’t irritate my acne-prone skin. The flip side is that I won’t buy this until YSL goes cruelty-free. It’s such a shame and totally unnecessary in this day and age. I had to remove a star from this otherwise perfect foundation for that reason.

Color: BD40. My holy grail foundation is EL DW. I decided to try this foundation because I wanted more coverage. This was recommended to me by many employees that work at Sephora. So I will say this bottle is very luxurious and pump makes getting foundation out super easy. This formula does have a slight scent. It has a fresh smell and does not irritate my sensitive skin. I love the coverage of this foundation. If you use your fingers or a brush you can get to full coverage with no cakeyness. It feels so light weight on the skin. Do shake the bottle before pumping because it does slightly separate. The color once applied does oxide 1/2 a shade, so it took some doing to find the right shade for me. I have enlarge pores on my cheeks and this does not settle into my ... MoreColor: BD40. My holy grail foundation is EL DW. I decided to try this foundation because I wanted more coverage.

The color once applied does oxide 1/2 a shade, so it took some doing to find the right shade for me. I have enlarge pores on my cheeks and this does not settle into my pores, my skin looks gorgeous. Even though this is called All Hours, it gets oily on me at 4 hours and I have to blot. When I blot the makeup comes off and well this also transfers like crazy. Right onto my shirt collar, hug someone, just horrible. This does nothing for oil control and it is a constant struggle to keep the foundation on my face. Plus, the price and the amount of foundation is less than 1oz. I went through 3 bottles of this and well I am done fussing with this foundation, back to EL DW.

I received a sample of this from Sephora, actually twice and I'm so happy! is so amazing! First the color was an absolute perfect match! It's super lightweight but provides superior coverage. It's like not wearing anything at all to be honest. You just can't feel it. And a little goes a long way. One of those little sample bubbles gave me 3 applications! I imagine it could be buildable but I don't think it needs to be built up. One thing layer really is sufficient. I wish I had taken a photo of the sample but I'll attach a photo of my face after using it. It's blendable though I just used a sponge to dab on. It does have a light pleasant fragrance but as I said it's nice and you don't notice it after you've applied it. I think this will be my go to, my holy grail. ... MoreI received a sample of this from Sephora, actually twice and I'm so happy! is so amazing! First the color was an absolute perfect match!

I had been looking for a new foundation for what seemed like forever, as I'm now I'm the over 35 age range, my skin is different to what it was I'm my 20s, I had tried a few foundations on the market, but nothing made my skin look how I wanted. After trying all hours foundation I was amazed. My skin looked fresh and dewy, it blended in with my skin lovely , it didn't sit on top of my skin or sink into cracks like other foundations had been doing. I also found that just using a little for a day time look the coverage was amazing, and using a little more for a night out look it looked so polished. Absolutely amazing foundation. My new favorite

Been using this foundation for years and it is one of my all time favorites! Doesn’t feel heavy and works some kind of sorcery to make imperfections disappear. I also love how this doesn’t settles into my fine lines…which I’m becoming increasingly aware of. Trust this stuff so much that I even wore it at my wedding! So can attest that it can also withstand 8+ hours of pure chaos 😂 Attached pic was taken by me at the very END of the night in our getaway car. So not retouched by photography magic. Overall, I highly recommend this as a solid addition to any makeup collection!

In my opinion, YSL All hours is the best matte foundation on a market. It is full coverage but looks very thin and natural. For me it is much better then Estée Lauder Double Wear which looks awful on my pores and add me some age. For me YSL foundation is great for special occasions because I can trust it on 100%. In the end of the day it will stay on face and will look great. I don’t like to use it with a powder, this is too much for me. Actually, it doesn’t need a powder. It is also good for summer because my face doesn’t get oily with it. I like to apply this foundation with a wet sponge. I am not sure if it will look good on a mature skin cause it can emphasize wrinkles. I don’t think it will be good for dry skin, in this case it is better to use foundations with ... MoreIn my opinion, YSL All hours is the best matte foundation on a market.

I don’t think it will be good for dry skin, in this case it is better to use foundations with radiant finish. But it is absolutely must have for oily and combination skin. I enjoy the packaging also. The bottle is made of matte glass, it has a pump. It is so luxurious and stylish.
