Product Description:
Swatches:
Pro's:
1)It is a oil-free,non-comedogenic and water based foundation.
2)It is a light weight foundation which provides light-medium coverage.
3)It is yellow toned foundations which will suit Indian skin types.
4)It is suitable for normal-oily/combination skin types.
5)It contains sunscreen SPF 18,yet it does not leave white cast.
6)It is thin runny liquid which is very easy to blend and sets pretty quickly.
7)It works best with fingers for application of foundation rather than brushes/sponges.
8)The foundation sets almost into powdery finish from liquid.
9)It gives matte/satiny finish and lasts 5-6 hours.
10)It does not make face oily nor does it break me out.
11)It is available in 6 shades in India though Internationally 12 shades are available.
12)Easy availability.
13)Paraben-free.
Con's:
1)Expensive.
2)The packaging is not exactly convenient.I would prefer pump packaging for hygienic usage.
3)Since it is a light-medium coverage foundation,it cannot hide blemishes well so you will be needing a concealer.
4)It contains dimethicone.
5)Dry skin types will definitely need a additional moisturiser so it can accentuate dry patches.
Directions for use:
1)Shake well before use and gently turn the bottle upside down.
2)Wait till the right amount of Nude Magic falls on your fingertips and then blend it in to your skin.
3)The light liquid spreads evenly, gets easily absorbed and leaves a beautiful, talc-like finish.
Final Verdict:
Loreal True Match is my HG foundation which does a awesome job on oily-acne prone skin.So since I saw Loreal Magic Nude Powder Foundation,I was very much intrigued so I wanted to try out.It is said to be dupe of Giorgio Armani foundation which of course comes under Loreal as well.It is very difficult to find non-comedogenic foundations for oily-acne prone skin.Water based foundations work the best on oily skin types.I like the fact it is light weight foundation which is suitable for for daily wear.Honestly this foundation is so much better than BB/CC creams plus cheaper too.My friend Megha loves matte finish make up so she has got me addicted to matte as well,this foundation settles into lovely matte finish!It blends like a dream.There are no major cons except that if you have blemish prone skin,you will need a additional concealer.If you are looking a light-weight foundation for daily use,I would say go for it and I will definitely recommend to oily skin types.
