Review of L'Oreal Translucide Healthy Glow Make-Up

I have yet to find the perfect foundation and I have searched for YEARS!! What with my extremely pale skin, almost all brands of foundation are way too dark for me. Plus I have annoyingly dry and flaky skin (never used to until I got M.E). I tell a lie, once I did find a foundation that was almost the right colour and texture for my skin and it was by Avon, and as what normally happens, they went and discontinued it!!! So my search continues…. ...
...across this one. I’ve tried a L’Oreal one before and the colour was perfect though it left me looking a little chalky. This was 7yrs ago and what with all the new technology around, I thought they would have improved their formulations. This one comes in a dinky little bottle (30ml) and costs £8.99 (depending on where you buy it). As a qualified beauty therapist, I know it’s essential to get a great base, and then the rest of your ...

Review of L'Oreal Translucide Healthy Glow Make-Up

...hurtful words. I tried L'Oreal Translucide on a whim. I'd done Ideal balance, but I needed more. I was giving those frenchies a chance, because I'm a darling. It was only £8.99 and it was a lovely colour. I took the lightest as it was nearest to matching my face. I believe that is the done thing here, and I didn't want to rock the boat. There were no testers so I was taking a chance, but what is life for if you can't take up that caution and lob ...
...will experience the wonder of L'Oreal together. Look in your hand. No the left one. Ah. Now you see it. It's that foundation they're all talking about down at the community centre. Doesn't it look pretty? Look at that bottle, what a design, all curved and sophisticated. Like me wouldn't you say? Of course you would. See that clear plastic lid on the top (where else would a lid be)? Take it off and throw it. Yes, that's right. Why yes I suppose it ...

Review of L'Oreal Translucide Healthy Glow Make-Up

I bought this foundation about 4 months ago, and I have been continually impressed with the results. It is a liquid foundation with about medium coverage, and leaves a nice glowy finnish, without making your face look shiny. I have combiation skin, and this foundation worked really well for me. I do have to touch up with powder once through the day, but compared with a lot of other foundations, this is a lot less greasy. Translucide is also really ...
...build coverage, and it lasts the whole day. I wore this foundation when I went snowboarding for a week, and despite -20 temperatures, laughing, crying, and constantly wiping snow off my face, this foundation lasted through it all! The only thing wrong with this foundation is the lack of colours. The first colour is light beige, which is too light, and the second colour is too dark, so I have to mix them. Apart from that , this foundation is one ...

Review of L'Oreal Translucide Healthy Glow Make-Up

...However, I came across L'Oreal Translucide about 4 years ago and decided to give it a shot! I was very impressed with the result and I have been using this foundation to this day! I have very dry skin so I use Nivea moisturising creme as a base for this foundation.If you have greasy skin don't apply to much otherwise you'll end up looking too shiney! I use the shade light beige which gives a good even coverage and doesn't give your face a pinky ...
...red blotches and minor scars beautifully. It feels very light and comfortable on the skin and defintiely gives the face a lovely glow. A little bit goes a long way and one 30ml bottle at £8.99 from Boots lasts me just over 2 months. You can use a pressed matte powder to dust over your face after applying this to reduce unwanted shine.It still gives a beautiful glowing finish. It's very easy to wash off. It's not waterproof , smudge proof or crease ...

Review of L'Oreal Translucide Healthy Glow Make-Up

I am always buying new makeup to see if there is a better one out there. My latest adventure was with L'Oreals translucide foundation. Firstly i did choose a shade one too dark, completly my error. However the texture of this foundation was too cakey. I dont like to feel like i am wearing make up and you can get weighed down with this. As i got a too dark shade, i began to mix the foundation into a good moisturiser and that did help the product. ...
...I am prone to spots and have oily skin and this product was good and bad for my skin type. Good because it covered my spots nicely but poor as it just dried out my skin TOO much. Did work well once mixed with the moisturiser though. Translucide claims 'it's the end to dull, lifeless make up' and it claims to give 'a healthy glow.' Which to be fair it does give the healthy glow look by being light reflecting, which is becoming popular for foundations. ...
