Chanel Les Beiges Hydration Long Wear Foundation VS Sublimage l'Essence de Teint : 8Hr Wear Test
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 พ.ย. 2020
- #Chanel dropped TWO new #glowfoundations recently. Both have a luminous lightweight texture, sheerer coverage and smoothing, hydrating properties.
With one formula priced over 3 times more than the other though, it's worth asking if they are actually different or just slight variations marketed towards different customer segments.
UPDATE: Singapore customers do note my error in pricing. Sublimage is $228 not $288!
I decided to compare formulas and do a wear test with #Sublimage l'Essence de Teint on one side of my face, brand-spanking-new #LesBeiges Healthy Glow Hydration Long Wear on the other, so you can check them out for yourself and see how they perform over 8 hours, under a mask, etc.
Shades tested: Beige 20

Excellent video well done, tons of info. I like the comparisons
You're reviews are always so great to watch! Literally the highlight of my day is getting an upload notif!
Ahhh that is SO sweet Ifueko, you just made my day!!
If this isnt the most thorough and best foundation review! WOW! :) Thank you
Very glad you liked it Anthony!! Thanks so much for the kind compliment!
A big thank you! I have used samples for both and couldn’t decide which one. You’ve helped me made up my mind. I really like how you put both through a series of tests to arrive at the conclusion.
Sorry I missed your message! Hope you enjoyed your purchase :)
Thanks!! Love glow foundations and was seriously considering Sublimage but think I’ll get Les Beiges now!
I was expecting to like the Sublimage slightly more so that was a surprise for me! Enjoy!
You are very thorough! Thanks for the details I’m definitely Intrigued 😁
Very glad you like it Natascha, and if you pick either of these up do let me know what you think!
Great comparison! I was gravitating towards sublimage foundation but after watching this I’m leaning now towards Les beiges because it’s less oily after you use the blotting sheet. Thanks for sharing.
New friend here.
This was so so good! Thank you!
Glad you found it useful Liz! Thanks for watching!
This is the best review on YT, just found your channel and subscribed - I also wear B20 in Chanel foundations and have the Les Beiges Healthy Glow and waiting for the new sublimage to arrive in our region, definitely picking it up!
Thank you for the huge compliment Amal, and welcome to the channel!! Let me know what you think of the Sublimage if you do try it!
When I saw the teaser on your ig, I was hoping the cheaper one would win!! And yay, something I could try from Chanel without too much guilt
🤣🤣 Sometimes - SOMETIMES - the Universe is on our side. I’m sure some people will like Sublimage more still. But I think the price difference isn’t so justified.
Babes in Singapore, please note my error in the Sublimage pricing! It is $228 not $288! Also forgot to mention both foundations have quite a strong fragrance (typical floral Chanel scent) which some people may dislike. It goes away during after application but if you're sensitive or want to avoid fragrances, do take note!
(Thanks for reminding me, Kaia!)
Gorgeous as always💕 I have the Vitalumiere foundation and mix with my double wear so it gives it a bit of dew but not to much on my combination skin 💕
OMG I've not tried that!! I mix my Double Wear with It Cosmetics CC+ too cos I can't use it on its own, but Vitalumiere sounds perfect cos it's lighter. Thanks for sharing!! So gonna try that now LOL!
Well done. That’s what I really need.❤
Great review. Thank you 👌💯
Thank you sooo much for watching and leaving a comment! Very glad you liked it!
Great video, thank you so much. I was wondering too about how the three of those compare. The Vitalumiere colours are so limited, so it great that there are two additional choses. I have the new Les Beiges but always looking for more skincare in my foundation.
Yeah they've only started to expand their shade ranges more the past year or so. It's still not the most comprehensive but it's a start!
Great Video! For me it came down to wanting a foundation (don't wear one every day) that was also skincare/treament
which the Chanel Sublimage is. Also, the fragrance in the Les Beiges was strong compared to the Sublimage which
was a barely there vanilla scent that dissipated quickly.
Bonjour, super review, merci 👍❤️
Quite an interesting comparison for sure. They both look gorgeous on you! So smooth and silky looking 🥰 Chanel really make amazing foundations, always a treat to try. I'll always have a weak spot for them haha. I too was a little surprised seeing not one but two satin-finish healthy glow foundations released so closely by Chanel. However since their normal Sublimage le Teint foundation feels a little much for me, I was excited to see a more light-weight foundation from that range. The Sublimage line is very luxe and costs a lot more than their other lines so I assumed this too would be much more pricier than their foundations typically are. I'm glad to see the Les Beiges foundation holding its own really well and it was good to see the comparison. I also want to get the Les Beiges foundation first, but I'd love to try the Sublimage l'Essence de Teint when I have some extra cash to spare 😁 As I'd anticipated the Sublimage l'Essence de Teint really seems perfect as an everyday foundation, can't wait to give it a shot when I can buy it. I've seen nothing but positive reviews of the Les Beiges foundation and am very excited to try it. It seems perfect for the upcoming winter months for me 💗
I think Sublimage would be heavenly in drier seasons if you can't resist getting it! But Les Beiges is definitely a pretty good investment to pick up first for radiant foundation lovers in my opinion!
@@IamCandiceKC Perfect, that sounds about right. My normally combination oily skin shrivels up into a dry desert during winter haha, so something like that would be heavenly indeed. I really gotta get that Les Beiges asap TwT Because of covid all my Chanel purchases got delayed big time :
This video was super helpful! 💗 I'd say the fact that the Sublimage was bigger and came with a brush probably made up about $100 of the extra cost as well!
Haha that was what I told myself! I do wish they'd have the additional option of selling the foundation refill without the brush though. I wouldn't mind repurchasing the foundation but won't need to get a new brush each time. Otherwise they're both lovely formulas.
thank you, Candice 💜 what are your thoughts on the Les Beiges reformulated bronzer? have you tried it? do you recommend it?
Love both❤❤❤❤
The price of sublimage in Australia is $202, the product is amazing with a lots of benefits for my skin, however is absolutely recommended for mature or dry skin.
This is the first Chanel serum-foundation, works for my skin, especially as a daily light makeup. A bit shame doesn’t have any SPF protection so to fill this gap I use the CC cream under to get the best result.
Thank you very much!!
I have noticed the Vitalumiere foundation shades do seem run warmer and a bit darker than the rest of the foundations available at Chanel. Hopefully they don’t discontinue it...! But it looks like Les Beiges could very likely replace it especially as they’re so similar AND there are more shades available 🤔
Yeah it does seem to be heading that way! :/ I like Les Beiges but I'll miss Vitalumiere if it goes haha. Mainly for the nostalgia!
I love your video ❤
Thank you so much for the sweet comment!
This review was so helpful! I had just gotten a few samples of Les Beiges Hydration Long Wear Foundation and when I heard this new one coming out, I wanted to make sure it wasn't significantly better before I bought it. Personally I don't think you can get all that much of a skin care benefit from a foundation, so I am fine to not pay a $100+ for it. I'm also not clear on what the shade range will be like. It seems all over the place.
Haha yeah Chanel still has a long way to go with their shade range!! But it's good that they are expanding it in the recent launches. Generally in the smaller lines they stick with majority neutral undertones, but the new Les Beiges seem to have a slightly better distribution among undertones than most of their other lines (e.g. pink ends with 2, neutral ends with 0 and yellow/gold with 1). You can just check based on the ending number.
You're 100% right to go with the samples!
@@IamCandiceKC Yeah, I matched best to BR112, but I am actually more neutral, so far they aren’t carrying the neutral undertones in the deeper shades. BR works fine enough for me.
From what I have seen on Holtrefrew though, they’re carrying a couple very deep shades in the 140s and 150s but not much in between for the Sublimage 🤷🏾♀️.
In Italy sublimage price is €150...Thanks for accurate description ❤️❤️❤️
Panda eyes best makeup skills! :o
LOL thanks ;>
You have great content and very helpful info. You've presented this comparison so well and I know I appreciate a good review when I replay it one more time! Thank you! I now know what Chanel to buy next and for a future review would like to know your thoughts on the Cle de Peau liquid foundation.
Thank you so much for the kind feedback Mary! Very glad it helped you to make a decision!
Thanks for the review,it has been of great help!Les Beiges Healthy Glow Foundation although comes in 35 shades,they do not,in my opinion,match our Asian skintones well.The one that u had on,looked a bit ashy on you, too(no offense)..but overall both the Sublimage and Les Beiges are beautiful foundations.I ended up getting the Les Beiges even though i couldnt get the perfect skintone match,the only justification to my purchase was the foundation itself does a beautiful job in terms of coverage and overall performance.;)
Thank you for your amazing review! Was hoping to see a POC review this foundation and yours was amazing. How do you find that the shade in the new Chanel foundations compare to your other shade matches - specifically Nars, Fenty and Lancome if you use those please?
Hi babe! Thanks for watching! I’ve always liked the Chanel neutral undertones (not to orange or yellow). I usually wear around a MAC NC25 (but the MACs are too peachy-orange for me). Beige 20 is also close to NARS Fiji and Fenty 190 if that helps!
@@IamCandiceKC thank you so much that is very helpful! I think I am darker so I will look at beige 30. much appreciated!
@@themellowmelodies. Enjoy!!
Wonderfull Video 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟Gracias y saludos desde México.
ILaik you eksplein tenks🙏
Hi Love ❤ Thank you for this great comparison!! I was very curious about the difference between these two.
Just a little note, I tried searching for additional chanel review from you and searched "makeup box chanel" but failed to find you. Just wanted to let you know that it would be nice for us to have a name or I'd that we can search you by???
Hi Christine, I think the problem is there are several makeup box names and channels hahaha. If you search Makeup Box without the "channel" are you able to find it?
p.s. sorry I missed all your comments previously!!
Why do you choose pink tone foundations?
How would these compare to the Sublimage de teint? I’m quite stuck when comparing the sublimage l’essense between the de teint .. 🥲
Hi Irene, sorry I missed your comment last week! I only tried Sublimage de Teint a few years back so apologies as I'm working based off my memory. De Teint (pot) is quite airy and sets to almost a demi-matte "freshly washed" slightly filtered-skin finish. Surprisingly, it's quite blurring and not as dewy as I expected for a cream foundation.
I feel l'Essence (liquid) is slightly more glowy, and gives a "freshly moisturized" look. Both have similar skincare ingredients and light-reflective pigments and coverage, so it's really up to you which finish you prefer!
What’s ur Mac shade ? And how do u like les beige in comparison to Dior forever skin glow foundation
I go between NC20-25 depending on the formula and how much it oxidizes! NC25 pre-oxidation. Dior Forever Skin Glow is a thicker consistency, has a bit more coverage, is less dewy, and dries down quicker than Les Beiges. The Dior is more typical of a long-wear glow type foundation while Les Beiges is thinner and sets quite moist, and doesn't feel like you would expect a long-wear formula to feel, if that makes sense!
I would think if you have combination/normal skin or you're wearing a glow foundation in warm weather, the Dior may do a better job while the Chanel is probably going to ace it on drier skins or seasons. Hope this helps!
Thank you 😊 ❤️
So, I can stick with my beloved Les Beiges foundation.. Pheww.. But what about the Sublimage Le Teint?! How does this one perform in comparison with the L'essence?! ❤
Hi Stephanie, I tried the Le Teint quite awhile ago so don’t take my absolute word for it as I’m working based off memory and have not used them side by side! The cream one blended in a bit quicker for me, and the new l’Essence serum foundation has a gel-like consistency that takes a bit more time to dry down, but their coverage level and glow are similar to me after setting with powder. I do remember Le Teint breaking down after about 8-9 hours and this newer l’Essence lasted quite a bit longer for me. Neither one controls oil but the liquid formula stayed looking nicer at the end of long days. Again, that’s just on my skin in humid weather. Hope that helps!
@@IamCandiceKC thank you so much for your help, my dear! 💕🙏🌹Guess I would go with the L'essence then...
Is your skin warm and do you also have yellow undertone?
Hi sweetie, I had my skin scanned professionally at a few different places and my undertone is neutral. If a brand has only pink vs yellow undertones (e.g. many MAC ones), I tend to go for the yellow. Usually for Chanel foundations, the numbers with a 0 behind are Neutral (20, 30, 40). Golden/Yellow tones end with a 1 (11, 21, 31, etc) and the pink undertones often end with a 2 (22, 32, 42). Hope this helps!
👍👍👍
Is lebeige foundation oxidase on you x
They all dry down a bit deeper, so make sure you wait a few minutes before choosing your color in store. But I didn't find it to oxidize further over the rest of the day.
Maybe try shade BD31..B20 isn’t your shade
The price of sublimage is S$224, not S$288.
Hi Qing, thanks! I added a note in my comments that the pricing in the vid was wrong. I made the mistake of throwing out my receipt and ended up having to text my sales contact for the price. Was first told 288, then double checked after filming and it was 228... so now I learn it's $224 hahaha. LOL, I think I should never throw out my receipts before filming anything!
@@IamCandiceKC you are right, it is indeed $228. I typed wrongly. But I do agree with you that the price tags is on the higher end. How I wish Chanel could remove the brush and reduce the price! As I always apply foundation using fingers, lol!
@@qing85 Haha I know what you mean! Yesss, I don't know what people who repurchase the foundation would do with all the extra brushes. I think it should be an optional add-on you can buy at a good price, but not compulsory!
You should get beige 30 or 40 20 is too light and looks greyed on you
Hi Alba, I tried a sample of 30 and it went too orange on my skin after setting so I ended up with 20. It does go on slightly ashy but it looks fine later if you check the later parts of the video. I find it easier to bronze it up than wear a shade that's too deep when I'm between shades!
You have gorgeous young skin (which looks on the normal to oily side) so Sublimage is too much for you. Drier more mature skins drink up sublimage so the blotting paper on that type of skin would have nothing on it.I I had your skin I wouldn’t wear foundation, it’s perfect 💖
Hi B B, thank you!! I actually have very dehydrated skin (except on my inner cheeks where it's more normal) hahaha. I know it looks oilier cos I often run errands in the Singaporean humid heat with a mask on to test how foundations last here. I should have stated that more clearly upfront! I totally see how it would be perfect in drier weather though. I used to save some of my creamier foundations for traveling (which is sadly not happening now)!
I heard that Les Beiges has a very strong scent
Ah I KNEW I forgot to mention something!! 😖 Yeah both of these do have a fragrance, which sorta goes away after you apply it. But if you dislike that floral “department store brand” type of scent in your makeup you wouldn’t like these!
