First post: Review of Chanel Perfection Lumiere

Hi guys, I've decided to start a makeup and skincare blog after quietly reading others amazing blogs.

Ok well, my first review is the newly released Chanel Perfection Lumiere.

Product description: Effortless to apply, with seamless blendability for a naturally flawless effect, this breakthrough foundation is the ideal all-day, everyday formula – suitable for all skin types in a diverse range of 20 shades

Just some background information, I am currently using Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua in B20. All I can say is that the B20 in the Perfection lumiere is slightly lighter than Vitalumiere's B20. I got the B30 and it suits perfectly with my skin.

It glides on effortlessly like the vitalamiere aqua but its not as smooth on the application! The Perfection lumiere is supposed to be for people with more oily skin because the formula turns from liquid to powder so it has a pretty matt finish. Whereas the vitalumiere had a more dewy/fresh finish.

Here is a close up picture of B30 on my face after setting for 1 hour:


As you can see it has a smooth finish but the one complaint I have about this foundation is when it sets to powder you can see the foundation in my pores as little dots in my pores.. not sure if that's because it didn't blend it properly! But I will definitely give it a few more days of testing before I decide whether this is better than the vitalumiere aqua.

Love
Winnie
