Foundation Review: Topshop Air Cushion

Foundation Review: Topshop Air Cushion

Oooh, I'm finding this one a right little devil to review! The Air Cushion Skin Perfector from Topshop is another cushion foundation (product-soaked sponge inside a compact, for those not in the know with this particular trend) but I'm flailing around a bit when it...

YSL Fusion Ink Cushion Foundation Review

YSL Fusion Ink Cushion Foundation Review

My love-in with the cushion foundations continues: I'm still using the Lancome (reviewed here) but when such a heavy coverage isn't required, it's on with YSL's new Fusion Ink. Actually, Fusion Ink isn't new at all (I video reviewed it here almost exactly two years...

Clinique Superbalanced Foundation Review

Clinique Superbalanced Foundation Review

Goodness, I've really tried with this foundation, but this review is, I should warn you, something of a mixed bag. I've seen so many glowing reviews of Clinique's Superbalanced Makeup online and so, when I first "dug in" (literally, see below for full explanation) I...

L’Oreal Paris True Match Foundation Review | AD

L’Oreal Paris True Match Foundation Review | AD

You may have seen my face popping up on your television screens recently; I was picked to be part of the brilliant #yourstruly campaign for L'Oreal's True Match foundation, celebrating the fact that the range now has 23 shades and that L'Oreal will be able to match...

Burberry Bright Glow Foundation Review

Burberry Bright Glow Foundation Review

There's a new, juicy foundation on the block - the Bright Glow Foundation from Burberry. Good old Burbs - they do that whole fresh, natural skin thing so well and their new face base is a brilliant addition to what is already an excellent foundation line-up. I think...

Foundation Review: Lancome Teint Idole Ultra Cushion

Foundation Review: Lancome Teint Idole Ultra Cushion

I had presumed that I wouldn't get on with Lancome's new Teint Idole Ultra Cushion foundation; I've yet to be truly convinced by this huge "cushion" trend that's hit the market. It all just seems a bit gimmicky and...unnecessary. A makeup-infused sponge that needs...

Becca Aqua Luminous Foundation Review

Becca Aqua Luminous Foundation Review

Goodness. If there's a fresher-feeling foundation out there with the same amount of coverage and glow and real-skin finish then I want to know about it. Becca's Aqua Luminous foundation ticks so many boxes when it comes to a summertime face base that it's almost...

Foundation Review: Effaclar BB Blur

Foundation Review: Effaclar BB Blur

I think you'll agree that the below "before and after" photographs are pretty epic: no light or computer trickery has been used. (I don't ever retouch my images, by the way - or Facetune or whatever people use to whiten their teeth and get rid of wrinkles and...

l’Oreal Infallible 24H-Matte Foundation Review

l’Oreal Infallible 24H-Matte Foundation Review

Well this is a nifty little number: a non-cakey, long-lasting, matte-but-not-flat foundation that comes in at less than seven quid. I don't usually get on with a lot of the cheaper foundations, but the L'Oreal Paris Infallible Matte applied and blended beautifully on...

Laura Mercier Silk Creme Foundation Review

Laura Mercier Silk Creme Foundation Review

I promised some standalone review posts on the foundations mentioned in last week's video and here's the first: Laura Mercier's Silk Creme Photo Edition Moisturizing Foundation. It's absolutely gorgeous - reminds me a little bit of By Terry's Sheer Expert, in that...

Foundation Reviews: The Newest Launches

Foundation Reviews: The Newest Launches

I reviewed four of the newest foundation launches for The Telegraph last week; I've popped a link to the full video below so that you can see the face bases in action. Foundation reviews are quite tricky to do, because so much depends on skin type, tone and personal...

Foundation Review: Chanel Perfection Lumiere Velvet

Foundation Review: Chanel Perfection Lumiere Velvet

A much-requested foundation review; Chanel's Perfection Lumiere Velvet. This is Chanel's newest foundation release and I must say that it has instantly won me over. It's one of those products that requires very little in the way of effort; it just works every time,...
