I love this foundation! I have combo mature skin, and use Tretinoin: this foundation is one of the best I’ve used! Believe it does not have alcohol in it..?! YAY! Also tried the new Charlotte T. Foundation and sadly that one was a thick hot 🥵 mess on me! Good review, thanks!
I think the Chanel looks lovely with the barest of powder. It's slightly mattifying but it gives the skin a flawless, natural, and healthy appearance. But after all, its CHANEL you know its got to be good!! Thanks
Thank you for the thorough review. My bottle just arrived yesterday and I immediately put it on and I thought the finish was gorgeous. I’m so glad to hear it’s long wearing for you, I’m hoping I will experience the same. I have been using the Chantecaille Future Skin Cushion Compact, and in the summer sometimes the regular Future Skin, but I felt like a change. I think this foundation will be the perfect foundation to add into my rotation. Love your videos! I always look forward to them.
Thank you for such a detailed video, the foundation looks so pretty on you, I was sitting on the fence but I’ve decided to give it a try 😬. Love your new glasses they really suit you ❤️
I purchased this foundation last week and am loving it on my normal to slightly dry skin. It gives me the level of glow I would like to have, depending on the powder applied, and lasts a solid 12 hours. Definitely a winner, which is a good thing, given that it is pricey! Thank you for your consistently excellent reviews. I am glad I stumbled upon your channel a couple of months ago!
I tried this foundation yesterday, the colour Bd31 was absolutely spot on. I just didn’t like the dryness I got after about an hour. Showed every pore and wrinkle, even after setting. Looks beautiful on you but prefer the CT on you, that looks stunning 🤩
I think I like the CT better (haven't worn it in DAYS) - but this offered me an unusual flexibility I don't get from my other foundations in that it really went pretty matte when I used a bit more powder than usual.
@@TheHoodedLid so I changed the shade to BD30, put a rich moisturiser (Ole Henrikson) and an illuminating primer on and boom, it is now my holy grail 🤩
VERY VERY disappointed in this foundation. Luckily I tried it an alternate days alongside the IT cosmetics your skin but better and I was able to see the huge difference. The It cosmetics one is one third of the price less and twice as beautiful. This Chanel foundation felt oily, did absolutely nothing for my skin to blur or improve its appearance. It got oilier as the day went on . The one good thing it looked imperceptible but then again so does the It cosmetics one. Even thought it was undetectable the Chanel one did really nothing to make my skin look more refined. Whereas the It cosmetics one looked like a veil. The only thing I need to say is the It cosmetics can look a little matte ,although not a flat or dehydrated matte but it certainly is less luminous. But at the same time my skin looked beautiful with the It cosmetics one whereas with the Chanel I looked like I was wearing a CVS product . I had much higher expectations from a product that is over 70 dollars.
As you thought that the CT foundation was more yellow and a better colour for you, you should try the Chanel BD21 instead, which is slightly more yellow than the B20.
It's not that yellow foundations are my jam - it's that the B20 seemed more peach - which often works for me, but head-to-head, I felt the CT looked better color-wise
You made me buy it😂 and I’m so pleased! B20 is the perfect shade for my Skin Tone. I’ve mature skin that can sometimes be a little bit dry and flaky due to the use of tretinoin. So for me this foundation is neither too mat nor too glowy and it works very well with different moisturizers and sunscreens. Thank you again for your review.
So glad you like it! Jelly that the shade works for you...I may have to find a store that carries it (my Ulta doesn't) to see what the BR shades are like - I know I tried them years ago, but they didn't work for me - it's a great foundation though.
I like this foundation on you. I think it's a very good color match. This color should work for me too. I tend to break out so I will wait to see how it works out for others before I buy.
Have you seen the new CB Eyes to Mesmerize matte cream eye shadows? I would be interested in your demonstrating one of those in time. (Sorry, nothing to do with Chanel. Probably because you had mentioned the CT lip and cheek balm made me think of this query.)
I bought and returned Chanel No 1. Too drying skin felt dehydrated in evening after I washed my face with LPR cream cleanser. And no matter what I did I had that old lady dry paper powdered mat flat no glow whatsoever look and I don’t use powder. The only time this looked nice was when I pressed a damp wash cloth on my face ( probably took off 1/2 of the product) I do not recommend or if you do try buy from somewhere you can return. $70 is a lot to spend on a foundation that may or may not work. I will say bd10 was an excellent shade match.
Thank you for this beautiful tutorial. I’ve just bought the foundation and the baume au levre im lovely Rose. It has enough color for my complexion. There are also some more intense colors .
Does this foundation contain alcohol and/or fragrance? That I need to know before even considering it. I have dry, very sensitive skin and avoid those two ingredients big time. Thank you for the review!
I wish the CT foundations worked for me but they are too yellow. I am excited to try this foundation as Chanel formulas and shades work so well for me. Thanks for your review!
Thank you so much, informative as usual. Because I have texture, do you believe that finishing powder is more favourable than setting powder as I’ve only just realised they are not the same thing? 🙄
I bought the L’EAU. It's very lovely, but I didn't know til now that green tea essentially is a camelia leaf, now when I know, this N1 scent makes sense to me. I kept saying to myself - it's smells like green tea 😊
Would you say this is better or worse than the Charlotte Tilbury Beautiful Skin.. ? which I just bought .. I have the same issues as you, dry skin some lines ( who am I kidding, I’m 53 a lot of lines.🙄😂) and a tiny bit of rosacea..I wear exactly same shade in the CTBS 4 N.xx
It's such a personal thing - but the CT seems to provide more coverage and if you have rosacea, I think you'll find it very comfortable and even comforting on/to the skin.
Please let me know the blush shade that you used in your custom Surratt Palette. It is gorgeous! Lovely video and beautiful foundation on you. Off to purchase a bottle of this Chanel foundation now...
I bought this foundation the other day but it’s a bit too warm for my skin tone. I love it tho and will buy another shade and keep the one I have now for summer. You look lovely in both the Chanel and CT.
I cannot understand why anyone would want to do a face of makeup, then proceed to take perfume and spray it all over your face. That is what you are doing when they mix the horrible smells in with the makeup. It is bad for the skin, also it doesn’t make the makeup last. It’s mostly more luxury makeup that does this so essentially if you can afford the makeup surely you can afford the perfume to spray in your face. That way if for whatever reason you want perfume on your face you can choose the smell.
The European based high end brands do this more than anyone. I think it's because they want the application of the product to be an "experience" and put the same fragrance in all their products (skincare and make-up) so the user gets a sensorial association thing going. The sense of smell is very tied into memories. In other words - it's a marketing thing. I agree, it's an ingredient we're paying for, and yet it does nothing to enhance this skin and can be unpleasant for people and can also be sensitizing to others.
I don't have dry patches, which I try to mention in reviews so people that do can take that into consideration. You may really like this Chanel foundation.
I just got my foundation yesterday and I have to say at first, I was like "it's going back, too shiny". But with a light dusting of powder it DOES stay matte all day long , not cakey either. I'm for sure keeping it, as it looks beautiful on the skin and lasts all day.
I tried this foundation today, it's natural , blends smoothly but after few minutes inside my mouth I was tasting some bitterness !!! I don't put foundation on my lips , never , I try as much as possible blending outside my lips . The other products like face cream etc was the same as usual. So did that bitterness came from foundation!! I think so ....
So glad I found your channel! I treated my self a few months ago to Chanel make up. It was a " new " water based The Beiges water fresh tint-- super sheer almost like a highlighter for me in medium plus. So I went back and bought Vitalumiere Aqua in Beige. 😂. Kinda mix the 2 on my face( just turned 69😳) But have decent skin- a little sun damage. I think I like the aura of Coco Chanel - but I probably will never spend that much money on foundations again. Thank you for your review👍🏻
Can anyone help me with shade advice? I have to order online. I'm deciding bw b20 and bd21. I'm slightly warmer/yellower than hooded Lid, I would say "light neutral leaning warm." luminous silk 4. Does the b20 lean any direction? Some pple seem to say it's too yellow and others say it's pinky. Any guidance from pple who own this foundation would be appreciated!
I was stuck between those shades as well and ultimately decided upon B20. I would suggest you do the same, since it's a really flattering neutral shade leaning slightly yellow while BD21 dries down pretty orange.
@@katieoconnell6345 thanks for much! I actually ordered it the day before I read your message. I went with bd21. It's not the right shade for me. I can't tell if it's too light or just the undertone is off on me. Will have to return for a better shade match, probably b20. I appreciate your advice!
I don't remember, I have A LOT of sunscreens and rotate so I'm sure to use them up before they expire. But most of me SS leave a sheen - I find matte sunscreens to be very drying on my skin!

it's the most beautiful foundation I've seen on your videos
Did you say which sunscreen you used that gave you the best results? I am having trouble finding a good sunscreen to wear under makeup.

This foundation is beautiful on you and definitely not as yellow as the CT and LE.
Geez - that LE is almost green/yellow. There's something off about it. This was very pretty.

Happy Wednesday from your injured big fan in Texas.
I think it looks lovely on you
This colour is perfect on you actually. It matches your neck very well. You don’t need it more yellow

I really liked this foundation on you. It looked like a sophisticated “your skin but better. Tres chic!🤗

Enjoyed the video. The Chanel was much pinker than the others. I need a little yellow in my foundation to help with my face redness.
Does this foundation contain alcohol and/or fragrance?
That I need to know before even considering it. I have dry, very sensitive skin and avoid those two ingredients big time.

I hope you like it! CT Foundations didn't work for me, either, but I think she's expanded the range because I found a winner in 4N!
There is a blue mixer by NYX that you can add, to take the yellow out. Only takes a small drop and works really well.
Thank you so much, informative as usual. Because I have texture, do you believe that finishing powder is more favourable than setting powder as I’ve only just realised they are not the same thing? 🙄
The foundation is gorgeous on you, perfect colour too. Can’t wait to try it.
Hope you like it!
Hi enjoyed the reviews I’ve not tried it yet as I’ve been watching the reviews first but it looks very pretty on you so I might try it 🌺🌸🌷🌹🇬🇧

I can't smell anything in the foundation. The Dior scent in their foundation is so loud that it would make me up from a coma I believe. LOL

Thankyou!
great video ❤
