REVIEW: L'oreal Nude Magique Eau De Teint Foundation



I know that this foundation was released quite a while ago, but I only recently bought it. Its supposed to have the consistency of water which is what L'Oreal advertise it as. Personally, I think it lives up to this, with the foundation itself being very lightweight and easy to wear. To be honest, it feels as if there is not makeup on my face. It has become my new everyday foundation and its actually reduced the amount of redness in my skin. Some people say that the foundation is very similar to the Armani foundation - however I am not lucky enough to have tried this to compare it to. Since the consistency is described as water-like, I did not expect the coverage to be so amazing. It instantly covered any blemishes that I had and evened my skin tone beautifully, leaving it silky smooth but still natural looking. It is  however easily buildable if you did want a heavy coverage foundation.



For application L'Oreal suggest that you just use your finger tips, however I think that the coverage is much better and everything blends much nicer when I use my Real Techniques Buffing Brush.
The bottle is the most gorgeous design, it is made from frosted glass and reminds me of a perfume bottle in a way. L'Oreal packaging is normally gorgeous but I think this tops it for sure.


It retails for £9.99, however Superdrug did have a deal on last week, I am not entirely sure if it is still on though. Its well worth the money I promise you!

L'oreal Skin Perfector Serum

Hi guys!

Recently L'oreal bought out a new skincare range targeted at a slightly younger audience, with aims to improve the appearance of younger skin. The overall intended effect is perfected skin. 
My friend bought the serum and raved about it so I thought I would give it a go whilst it was on sale in Boots. 

I absolutely adore the packaging for this! I find that a lot of skincare products aimed at younger people tend to have really cheap and tacky looking packaging, however this is so gorgeous! I love the ombre effect on the bottle.


I find that this product goes down quite quickly, which is a bit of a bummer because this is at the higher end of the drugstore skincare product price range. But honestly, this product works wonders for my skin. I apply it religiously every night and occasionally in the morning depending on how my skin is looking. You are just supposed to gently massage it into your face and within 3 hours your face looks flawless and perfected. It sounds like the biggest gimmick in the world but I swear to you guys this is the best skin product I have ever purchased! It leaves your skin feeling soft, and I find it reduces any redness I have around my face, especially around my nose. Not only this but it drastically decreases the visibility of my pores.





As far as face serums go, this is very light and refreshing on the skin and does not weigh your face down at all, which is good as you are meant to apply this twice a day - once in the morning and once in the evening. Obviously you don't want to be putting heavy things on your face underneath makeup. 

There are a few other things in this range such as the Day Moisturiser (which I have tried although I didn't find it to do anything special), Awakening Eye Cream, 5 in 1 BB Cream and lastly a product called Magic Touch Instant Blur which is supposed to be an amazing base for makeup. I have recently started using the Miscellear Water as a toner and second makeup remover and it seems to be making my skin look far more refreshed and clean. 

Have you guys tried anything from this range? What did you think of it?
