L’oreal True Match Foundation: New & Improved

L’oreal True Match has always been one of the best performing drugstore foundations, in my opinion. It’s the foundation I go to for medium/full coverage, with lasting power and I’m always confident that’ll it look good on camera. The foundation formula hasn’t changed in 10 years but customer’s requirements have and now people want more from their foundation, they want added skincare benefits. So to celebrate 10 years of True Match foundation L’Oreal have updated and tweaked the formula to suit the modern day customer and I absolutely love it.

The original formula, although good, I felt could be a little too heavy. I like a medium/full coverage occasionally but only when it works into the skin, the old formula could sometimes sit on the skin like a mask and it was quite hard to blend in. The new formula has new pigments for a more radiant complexion, oils for a better blend with the skin and improved moisture replenishment for comfort on the skin. I can really feel the difference and it works so much better on my skin. It blends in much better whilst still keeping the coverage, just with a bit of added glow.

I’m a happy bunny but I do think that those of you with oilier skin types who relied on this foundation might be disappointed. The slightly chalkiness that may have kept your skin more matte has now gone, so I’m sure some people won’t be happy about that.

Let me know if you’ve tried the new formula and what you think? Clearly, I’m a fan.
