I think I'm in Love..

Monday, September 20, 2010


I've been on the hunt for a foundation that I absolutely LOVE for some time now. Now, please note, despite having worked in the cosmetics industry for years and knowing all the benefits wearing foundation provides- it still was never on the tops of my lists. But that all changed the minute I hit 35.


While on a business trip to Las Vegas I griped to my bestie about how my skin seemed less vibrant and more dull than usual and she oh so graciously suggested that maybe I needed to revisit the whole concept of "foundation". Btw-thanx :)


After trying a few different kinds I finally decided on Chanel's Teint Innocence and let me tell you.. I am in LOVE!!


This foundation is amazingly light-it literally melts onto skin, covers flawlessly and yet still appears natural! I used a flat top blush/contouring brush (pictured above) to "buff" foundation on which seriously gives it an almost airbrushed quality. It's officially described as a "naturally luminous fluid makeup" and that's a perfect description. It contains the subtlest amount of luminous pigments that work to even out your complexion and make skin appear even toned and radiant (which is exactly what I was looking for!). This is the first foundation product in the Chanel line that I've tried and it did not disappoint. Once again, thanks to my bestie Jenn for reminding me that sometimes youth can come in a bottle (temporarily at least!). :)
