Hi Beauties,
In this post I am going to talk
about one of the global Favourite brands – L’Oréal Paris. There are 2 products
from the #true_match range. So, these are not at all new products but I finally
used them first time: -
1.
L’Oréal Paris True Match Super-Blendable Foundation in
the shade #6.N Mel Honey.
2.
L’Oréal Paris True Match Super-Blendable perfecting
powder, in shade G.5/W.5 Golden Sand.
I have been waiting to try these
after hearing so much about them, seems to be very popular among the beauty
bloggers. So were they hit for me or not? Read on to find out guys.

PRICE: - MRP Rs.
799 for 30 ml (valid for 3 years from Mfd. date).
PACKAGING: -
L’Oreal Paris True Match Foundation
comes in a hard glass bottle with silver pump packaging. It has a
transparent plastic cap and shuts with a click. I really like the Pump-dispenser
which is convenient to use and hassle-free, and the transparency helps to see
how much product is left in the bottle. Glass bottle may be risky but better
than plastic bottles.
SHADE: -
Normally, we can see two or three
shades of foundation in the market but “L’Oréal” provided us with 13 shades
to choose from fair to medium to dusky skin tones. Mine is in the shade mel
Honey #6.N which is suitable for medium to tanned skin. So dusky beauties
might just find this the perfect shade.
TEXTURE & FINISH: -
This foundation has a liquid
consistency suitable for perfect blending. It contains micro glitter
particles but they are really atom-small and only enhances the glow. Please
do not think of the chunky glitters at all. They look superb in the
skin. The texture is like silk which blends amazingly into the skin.
COVERAGE: -
Okay so this foundation is
amazzzziinggg you guys!!!!
The coverage is medium to heavy
coverage. I used a foundation blending brush to apply the
foundation. The micro particles gives amazing healthy glow. Now you know
why actors like Sonam Kapoor promotes it.
LONGEVITY: -
It stays intact for 7-8 hours
easily. I used it in office and was quite impressed with the performance and
long-lasting formula of this foundation. Quite effective and long lasting.
AVAILABILITY: -
You can easily get it in any retail
stores as well as online. I got at a discount from nykaa.com
ADVANTAGES: -
· It is available in 13 shades.
· It is suitable for both dry and oily skin beauties.
· Mattified effect with healthy glow
· Easy to blend
· Has SPF 17
· Non comedogenic
· Medium to high coverage
· It is long-lasting(easily for 8-10 hours) in normal weather.
DISADVANTAGES: -
- Budget might be an issue for college youngsters.
FINAL VERDICTS: -
Omg this foundation is a holy
grail foundation ladies. I am quite late to try out this. Always wanted to
try but now I know why its so popular worldwide. The L’OREAL PARIS TRUE MATCH FOUNDATION is a
lovely product. The texture melts like butter in the skin while giving a
healthy glow. My skin is normal type (sometimes lil dry) and this
product gives the perfect matte yet glowy look. The most attractive point is
its shade range that too at such a price tag is a steal. As L’Oréal says it’s definitely
WORTH IT!!!!!
OVERALL RATINGS: - 5/5
PRODUCT 2. L’OREAL PARIS TRUE MATCH
SUPER-BLENDABLE PERFECTING POWDER
WHAT THE PRODUCT CLAIMS: -
“Do-good powder with natural origin
ingredients and mineral pigments. It improves skin quality day by day.
Super-blendable, silky touch, all day natural matte finish.”
HOW TO USE: -
Using the given applicator, apply
all over face using delicate descending strokes. You can apply it alone or over
the base.
PRICE: -
MRP Rs. 725/- for 9g (valid
for 3 years from Mfd. date)
PACKAGING: -
The powder comes in a classy
silver lining plastic case. The front is transparent offers a window into
the item with loreal true match name. You'll see a tab beneath the dish, lift
it up and it uncovers a nice estimated reflect mirror and
a round puff. But I don't like the need for flipping the
sides which becomes really hectic for application.
TEXTURE and SHADE: -
My shade number is G.5/W.5
Golden Sand (for medium tanned skin). This compact powder has a good velvety
texture. Being a medium-tan skin girl I had an issue with the whitish cast
as in most of the powders but to my pleasant surprise, this compact has got
none of it. These come in 8 variety of shades for everyone to
choose from.
COVERAGE:-
The coverage is very natural.
Due to the fine finish, the powder sinks into the finest of lines. I wouldn't repurchase
this powder because it gives very light coverage. I always prefer
a medium-high cover compact to avoid touch-ups.
STAYING POWER:-
It is not a long stay compact you guys. It stays up to 2-3 hours. Touch-ups are required.
AVAILABILITY: -
You can easily get it in retail
stores as well as online at Nykaa.com
ADVANTAGES: -
1.
Classy packaging.
2.
Good for the skin as it is dermatologist tested.
3. No whitish cast on skin, natural finish.
4. Comes in 8 variety of shades.
DISADVANTAGES: -
1.
Very light coverage
2.
Quite costly for a compact powder.
3.
Does not justify the value for money.
4.
Did not fulfil my expectations as a brand value.
5.
In the package, the mirror is at the back because of
which you have to flip it for constant use.
FINAL VERDICTS: -
The L’Oreal Paris True
Match super-blendable perfecting powder is an average quality
product. But as per the brand image and price is concerned it failed to satisfy
me. Coverage could have been a bit more as per the price is on a higher side in
India. I will not repurchase it again. But anyways you guys can give it a shot
once and let me know whether it worked out for you or not.
OVERALL RATINGS: - 2/5
