Yes... I went shopping but I swear it's not totally for me! This is actually for my sister's wedding! As you all know I am doing my sisters make up for her wedding and we wanted to buy some foundation and everything really needed for the base because my sister doesn't actually wear much make up :) What's cool, is that I can use it as well because I am the same colour as my sister and this is going to be the start of my kit! I have been using all the products hygienically because I think that the foundation is awesome! Awesome enough to make it in my kit! ;)So what I got was....
- Chanel Base Lumiere - This has the prettiest pinky-purpley pearlescent in it, apparently good for photos :P
- Chanel Pro Lumiere - #20 Clair
- Poudre Universelle Compacte - #30 Naturel
- Eclat Lumiere Highlighter Face Pen - #20 Clair
Pro Lumiere - #20 Clair
Base Lumiere

====================================
I also got a tester for the Estee Lauder Double Wear because I heard that it was a good foundation (can you tell I'm shopping around for things in my kit hahah) and I am in Desert Beige. I put this foundation on with the stippling brush just to try it out because I failed last time I tried to use the stippling brush and I was so surprised with the result that I took photos so you guys can see! My skin is HORRIBLE right now, I have 3 huge zits the size of Earth on my face and you can barely see it on my photos! This foundation gave amazing coverage and it dries to a powdery finish. BUTTTTTT! As I was taking off my make up before I showered I saw that it sorta creased up or settled into fine lines more like it under my eyes! I've actually rarely experienced this before and I was so shocked because I was actually loving this foundation! I will give it another try just to make sure that it actually agree with me but yeah... disappointing :(
Chanel!! I've always wanted to try their foundation but I have a zillion open bottles of foundation right now. Hope to hear how it all goes with you soon! ^^

Love chanel! I love the foundation.
ReplyDeletewow, the chanel foundation looks great on you! :)
ReplyDeleteIs that the Estee foundation on you? It looks great, a tad light though :D
ReplyDeleteOooh Chanel..... :)
ReplyDeleteI love Estee Lauder double wear but it can be a little toooo thick!!! Maybe you could mix it with a little moisteriser to make it less cakey?? But it's fab for coverage :)
Hey hun! do you think the pro lumiere will work for me? how is it in terms of coverage? have you had the chance to compare it with Vitalumiere? =)
ReplyDeletei am so torn about what foundation to get next. i LOVE my nars but i have always wanted to try the chanel one. their base looks nice too
ReplyDeleteyour skin looks amazing! i love it!!
ReplyDeletefull coverage is amazing. you look beautiful as always :)
ReplyDeletei also tried the double wear foundation before and had the same problems as you with creasing :( but you don't need the full coverage anyway dear, your skin always looks like it's in great condition! :)
ReplyDeletethanks for your comment :) a lot of ppl said the same thing about the mirror. it does remind me a lot of anna sui's but lots cheaper so i'm happy! :) xx
Great reviews of the foundation. I heard lots of good things about the Chanel pro lumiere. And it's a good thing you managed to get a tester for the Estee Lauder Double Wear instead of buying the bottle- it's too bad it if creases again though :(
ReplyDeleteYou have great skin by the way!
I've never tried Chanel make up! But it sounds like it's pretty good. I need something that's light, and keeps the moisture! Things always go into creases for me! Maybe because I'm old and have wrinkles :)
ReplyDeletexo
aw! well it does look awesome, too bad about the creasing :<
