L'Oreal Paris Cosmetics Makeup Infallible Pro-Matte Liquid Longwear Foundation, Nude Buff, 1 fl oz.

I am the whitest white girl you ever did see. I get this in the lightest shade (ivory) and it's still not a true match / is slightly too dark with a bit of a pink undertone. Why do I keep using it? Because it's the best drugstore foundation I've found overall. Without any foundation on, I have an uneven complexion with redness in my cheeks, chin and the creases of my nostrils. I also have dry skin that can be a bit flaky. If you're in my boat, here's what I do to make this foundation work for me:1) Wash my face with warm water (no soap), exfoliate gently with a wet washcloth, and rub in a small drop of plain olive oil while my face is still moist, then pat dry with a towel. (Olive oil won't clog your pores, is great for reducing visible inflammation naturally, and contains many antioxidants to fight aging like those 100-year old mediterranean people with perfect skin who use olive oil for everything.)2) I apply a pea-to-dime sized amount of foundation to the back of my hand. Using a stippling brush (I use the Real Techniques one - cheap, works great, lasts forever without shedding fibers), I dab this onto my cheeks first, then chin, then blend in everywhere else.Some people complain this foundation doesn't spread well / dries too quickly / showcases dry patches, but using this method with olive oil on the skin beforehand, particularly for those of us with dry skin, I believe eliminates those problems. It spreads beautifully and smoothly with olive oil as a barrier to the skin - I wouldn't try putting this directly on my skin type because my skin is too dry. Your mileage may vary.The coverage is really pretty remarkable in my opinion. I require a medium coverage but prefer full-coverage and this is a great solution. It erases my redness and gives me a nice, even tone without maximizing pores or causing breakouts. Speaking of breakouts, it does okay with covering acne, but I'd recommend going over the pimple by putting a tiny dot of foundation on your clean fingertip and tapping it onto the pimple (after the main / full face application) just to ensure it's evenly covered.I sometimes have to reapply this product if I have a particularly long day, but it's the best looking foundation I've worn for a good price so I don't really mind. To me, it's not worth paying 3x as much to only apply once a day with a more premium brand. Before I had kids, I was a runway model for years so I've had every high-dollar foundation out there applied to my face and I STILL think people are nuts for spending so much on trendier foundations. This foundation, when properly applied, does 80% of the job for 30% of the price. That's a trade-off I can live with.The one thing I don't like about it (aside from the lightest shade not being light enough, which is the case with virtually all drugstore foundations) is that it does transfer onto clothing etc. if your face comes into contact with it. Naturally, I really like hugging my husband, but he's taller than me so a hug often results in a powdery "face smear" right around armpit level of his shirts - tooootally annoying. If he's wearing black it can look like he got in a fight with a bag of powdered sugar and lost. So, buyer beware - keep your face away from anything you don't want a ghostly face print on.Overall, this is a great product at an excellent price point and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to others.

The coverage is great. Feels good on face. Blends well. Just too dark. Will buy in a lighter shade.

I have used this foundation for years. It provides a smooth look.

It's just okay. It spreads okay using a makeup wedge. I do add a dap ofalmond oil to it because otherwise it's just too dry looking on my face.Matching my skin color is hard to do with any foundation (I"m veryyellowy-warm tone. The 104 seems best. Trying it in another version I never knowwhich color to get. Kind of frustrating.

This is the one drugstore foundation I always come back to. Love the finish, which can be light yet matte or can be built up to high, long lasting coverage. Doesn’t break me out as long as I hydrate well and remove thoroughly.

Good cover

I loved this at one point, however over the winter my skin has become really dry. This does not work for my skin at this point.

I have been using this make up for many years. What I love about it is when I go to the gym and sweat or in the summer days, my make up is just like I just applied it. Never run. Look so natural. Lots of people tell me, you are so lucky not to wear makeup. I say thank you and smile.

No es el tono que aparece, es mas claro

Long wearing, shine free, good coverage

Después de usar la poderosa Infallible PRO matte estoy segura que será mi base para siempre. Deja un acabado súper bonito en la piel, tersa y suave. Mi tipo de piel es mixta y puedo decir que en las zonas que tengo piel grasa las matifica y las zonas que tengo piel seca se nota bastante hidratada. Está base no se oxida, la cobertura que tiene es media y una ventaja enorme que tiene es que es "construible". Me encantó que tiene un aroma muy suave, y entre sus ingredientes tiene algunos que son "no comedogénicos" es fácil de difuminar, es ligera. Me encantó que no es necesario sellarla porque en lo particular no me gusta usar polvo traslúcido. Otra cosa más que me gustó fue el precio, es muy accesible y te llevas contigo una excelente calidad. Como su nombre lo indica: ¡Infalible por 24 horas! ¡La amé!

Best foundation for oily skin. It has a matte finish sit in place allday

Soy súper blanca con subtono amarillo. Me cuesta mucho trabajo encontrar bases que cumplan con esta características. Ya llevo un tiempo usando diversas bases de loreal pero siempre me quedaban un poco obscuras aunque fueran las mas claras. Esta base es ideal! Cobertura media como lo indica. Tengo marquitas de acné y las cubre bastante bien.
