WPR! L'oreal True Match Lumi Foundation

Hello Blogger-sphere

So for those of you who don't know, once a week I will be doing a weekly product review of a product that I am loving that week. Lets call them "WPR'S" So lets get started! 

This week will be a foundation that I recently purchased that I am excited about.
Now if you know a thing or two about makeup, you probably know that finding a good drugstore foundation is like finding a good man...it doesn't happen very often. But just like in my own love life, I think I struck gold. Its the Loreal True Match Lumi Foundation


Let me give you a little background info about my skin. I have EXTREMELY dry skin. Not elephant hide dry skin, but for 20 years old my skin is abnormally dry. So for me, finding a foundation that doesn't cling to my dry patches is mission impossible. 
This foundation is extremely hydrating and its biggest selling point is that it is supposed to give you a luminous glow. Like J-LO. Just kidding. 

Even though I don't have the bone structure, I do have the glow that she always has when I wear this foundation. Its not overly glowy like you just came back from a 3 month vacation in the Bahamas, but its noticeable especially on the tops of the cheek bones. 
The coverage is medium, but very build-able, go back and add a tad more in the areas you need to! 
It also has SPF 20, which is perfect in the summer. 

I have mine in the shade W1-2 Porcelain/Light ivory
Loreal True Match Lumi Foundation
Check out Loreal's website or you can find it at most drugstores (Walmart, Target, Wal-greens, etc.)


If your not the type of person who loves the luminous glow, then check out Revlon Nearly Naked foundation. I have been using this for over 6 months and its my "go to" foundation. This will give you a natural finish to the skin. Not too matte, not too glowy. Its a little less coverage than the Lumi, but it is still buildable. This is also found in drugstores! Whoo Hoo

Quick Tip: Mix these two foundations together to get the perfect combination of glowy and natural skin. You have to try it. Just do it. I know you want to. 



See you tomorrow,
