It really was pot luck as i had no idea of the colour I'd brought, but when i swatched it I was hugely relieved to find it a great colour match.
Chanel pro Lumiere is a foundation i have lusted after for a while and i had high expectations from such a premium brand. I am pleased to say i love it.
I'm sure my drawer full of foundations will be pushed aside now i've found this little gem.
The product just glides effortlessly and blends like a dream. I only needed a little to give a flawless look.
I don't have any powder or bronzer on here as i wanted to show you it as a base on its own.
I love the way it makes my skin look smoother and even but its so natural even up close. I expected it to be quite dewy looking but it's not really. It's quite hard to describe, not matte, not dewy but in between. I think it looks like a better version of my skin and it photographs really well too. I think I've finally found my perfect foundation.
it does look amazing.. about lips, what are you wearing in the pics? :)
ReplyDeleteThanks melly its NYX gloss in neutral x
ReplyDeleteLooks really nice on you- ideal shade. xx
ReplyDeleteI've been lusting after this foundation too! I have high hopes for it after MAC's offering that I was using. Now reading and seeing your post, I'm definitely gonna have to grab it on my mooch tomorrow... It looks amazeballs!
ReplyDeleteThe perfect blend of matte and dewy. I like. I like a lot! I had a sample of it which got me going in the first place!

pretty. I work near the chanel stand. It haunts me.
ReplyDeleteI want like everything. Might get a lipstick first though :).
xxxx
Your skin looks a-maz-ing in the photos! I was actually thinking yesterday of getting a Chanel foundation for myself after Christmas but wasn't sure, this has made my mind up for me :)
ReplyDeleteI've been swithering about this for ages! I was always worried that it would be too dewy for my skin as it's quite oily but I like that you said it's between matte and dewy, really I should just go and get a sample! It looks really lovely on you, so natural xx
ReplyDeleteThanks ladies, i must say i hate spending a lot on a foundation unless i know it's going to be right but i suppose sometimes you get what you pay for x
ReplyDeleteIt looks very nice on you! :-) Does it give full coverage (including covering face imperfections) or medium?
ReplyDeleteI have tried it too. :) It's sooooo similar too Cliniques Even Better, which is only £20.
ReplyDeleteI have heard great reviews about this foundation,it looks flwless on u,u look beautiful&have amazing skin. I would love to try it soon
ReplyDeleteLovely doll! You always look radiant anyways! Great post!
ReplyDeleteThanks girls. I would say medium coverage it's def not full coverage. I have clinique even better but find it makes my skin a bit too greasy looking after a few hrs. I also like the colour of this better xx
ReplyDeletewow!! it's really pretty on u.. it looks matte without giving u that dry matted look.... I've always wanted to try the Chanel matte Lumiere one... I should go to a counter one of these days & try em out... =) thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThis looks amazing on!! Great coverage and everything :)
ReplyDeleteKaushal xx

Do you need to use powder with it? I use Mat Lumiere, and I love it, but since it's summer here in Australia the air conditioning at work has been cranked up and I find the Mat Lumiere is a bit drying.
ReplyDeleteHi Dee, i don't really need a powder with it as it seems to last fine on me. If i did wear a powder though i would pair it with either MAC skin finish if i wanted more coverage or MUFE high definition powder which is amazing at reducing shine but its totally invisable. ( my fave powder ever )x
ReplyDeletewow nicoletta you look stunning! love your hair and the foundation looks fab on you x
ReplyDeleteThis is the only foundation that I have ever re-bought, I have re-bought it 3 times, so it must be good..
ReplyDeleteI currently don't have any of it, but I totally agree it is fantastic :)
