L'Oreal Paris Nude Magique Eau De Teint Review



Hi everyone!
So today I am going to be doing a review of the new foundation by L'Oreal Paris, Nude Magique Eau De Teint. I have done a review if this on my youtube channel if you want to check that out - www.youtube.com/GlitterLipsBeauty

I saw this foundation advertised on TV and after seeing it on special offer in boots I had to get it and try it out. It was £6.99 but is usually £9.99.
I think it's always good to have a lighter foundation in your makeup collection for days when you don't want to wear much, so I was very excited to try this one out.
My first impressions of the packaging is good. It comes in a glass bottle and you get 20ml of product which admittedly is less than a usual foundation but the product is a lot thinner than a usual foundation. L'Oreal claim that the product is lighter than water, which is very true. The consistency of the product is watery and when you apply it, it is very light and dries quite quick. The coverage isn't the most amazing but after a second light coat and some concealer and powder, you are good to go! I have been trying out the products wearability today and so far I am impressed. 


The finish is very natural and your skin feels like you are not wearing any product at all. Because it is so light it isn't cakey at all. After 5 hours of wear, the product doesn't need to be reapplied. I made sure I didn't wear a primer or use a setting spray so I could get the best impression of how the product holds up. 


As you can see from the above two photos the product is very runny but does blend in nicely. 
Over all I am happy with this product. I think it's perfect for summer and for winter days if you've got dry skin. A lot of people have been slating the product because it doesn't have the best coverage but I personally think it's good for a lightweight foundation. I am impressed with the lasting power of it as I was expecting it to fade off the skin quite quickly. Obviously it's not a product that's going to be to everyone's taste but if you like a product with a lighter coverage and is going to be lighter on the skin, then this one will be for you. I would give this a rating of 8 out of 10, simply because the coverage isn't anything amazing and also the colour range isn't that great. But apart from that I will be using this again. 

Have you tried this product yet? Let me know what you think! Xx

  1. I am always on the look out for a lighter coverage foundation although I struggle because I was not blessed with naturally great skin like your lovely self. It looks perfect on you, very much like a second skin.
