CHANEL - foundation of choice or not?

I recently purchased the new MAT LUMIERE fluid makeup by Chanel and to tell you the honest truth..I'm in-love!  Not often can i find a foundation that has the power to combat my 3pm t-zone shine, however this little beauty can.






Matt Lumiere is perfect for combination skin with a tendency to shine, It is an oil-free formula that delivers a soft, natural matte finish with maximum staying power. The coverage is what knocks my socks off - it goes on easy and buttery for blending and if you feel like a thicker coverage you just add another layer....magic!


The coverage is just impeccable compared to their other foundations and it remains shine-free for up to 12 hours.


The price is average, i paid $75 for mine (as pictured above).  My overall rating is on shine control, lasting wear, feel of the product, price and coverage...






I rate this product 9/10

  1. I've heard nothing but good things about this foundation - not sure if I can justify the cost though!

  3. Hi girls & thanks for the feedback! The foundation is seriously nothing short of amazing! Be careful buying off ebay - most (not all) are knock offs from China and can cause serious skin reactions. The price is high, however you only use a pump for the whole face (day wear) so it's not too bad. If you go to the Chanel counter they will give you a sample - that's how i fell in love.

    Goodluck, more to come xx

  6. I am so super fussy when it comes to foundation and having an oily T, i find this one works a treat. The wear is fabulous - all day and no having to re-apply. Love it! Let me know what you think when you try it Emily.
