L'Oreal Magic Nude Liquid Powder Foundation

By Kwilliford @ExquisiteEczema


This foundation is pretty darn awesome, and very innovative.  I was a skeptic at first, but after trying it out for awhile, this has become a favorite product and a must have.
L'Oreal Says: "Transforms from a liquid to powder for the perfect bare skin finish."
Formula and Coverage
The formula of this foundation is really cool and unique.  It starts off as a liquid and once blended, it feels like a soft powder.  In fact, I would even say that it performs better than a lot of powders I have tried.  Coverage wise, I was pleasantly impressed.  It is sheer, but it is also build-able.  The finish is natural and perfectly matte.  By perfectly matte I mean there is no shine, but you don't resemble a mannequin.  On areas I need more coverage, I just add an extra drop and it blends right in.  This foundation does have SPF 18, which we all know isn't enough to protect your skin. 
Shade:
Since I am very fair, I got the shade 310 (Light Ivory) and it matches perfectly.


Application and Wear Time:
Application for this foundation is a bit different.  It is best not to use any sponge or brush.  It says this bottle and it has shown to be true for me.  Just add a few drops to your clean fingers and blend.  And it does blend very easily.   For wear time, this lasts all day on me without getting shiny. 
Overall Impresion:
Love it!  If you have oily or combination skin, do try this out.
Without foundation.
