L'oreal Magic Nude Foundation-- *Putting the claims to the test*

Yay, Happy Hump Day!!!
   Hope the first of your week as been great and it continues to be fan-freakin'-tastic for the rest!
 Real Chick's Reviews will be starting a day-to-day theme, but will still be reviewing products everyday(except Wednesdays,those are already reviews). ;)

Also, once I get enough views/followers, I will be doing a monthly give-away! Possibly more than monthly if people help to get the word out. =)

Here's how the line up will be so far, more to come! (may change) :
Tips Tuesday
First Impressions Wednesday
Thrifty Thursday
  So, here is our first **First Impressions Wednesday**


L'oreal Magic Nude Liquid Powder

creamy natural



**Quick Decision Facts**

  • Quite runny making it extremely easy to apply
  • Super smooth and creamy
  • Light weight--like a tinted moisturizer
  • Light to medium coverage
  • Build-able
  • Not drying to the skin, nor felt oily once it set
  • Did not 'enhance' imperfections
  • SPF 18
  • Gives skin a healthy look 
  • 12 shade choices

*Ruling*

Loreal Paris USA.com says "Get the ultimate un-makeup look" "Revolutionary liquid transforms on contact, leaving a soft powder like finish. This foundation is so amazingly lightweight it's like wearing no makeup at all! Just shake and apply – it’s magic!"
Real Chick's Ruling: It truly feels as though you have no foundation on! Blended beautifully into the skin and did not change it's color as it set. Lasted throughout the day without any touch-ups. I would recommend this to anyone: from someone who doesn't wear a lot of make-up to someone just looking for a fresh healthy look, or even someone who is a makeup junkie looking to have something awesome in their collection!

Here is how well it covers, not so much that you have a 'cakey' look but not too less that you see every single bump and redness.
First picture is freshly cleansed face(yup, put my face on the internet without makeup on!), second is after applying one full coat then a bit more in certain areas. (also I have a little bit of blush on, because I lost patience and wanted to see how well the foundation held on to other products)

Report

First Impression review: see how well it lasts as I go throughout my day, almost 8 full hours with it on (no touch-ups)
I also did not use a setting powder(which I would recommend for this) just to see how well the foundation held up on it's own.

It did great (in my mind, considering it wasn't set with anything), but you can tell by the almost 8 full hour mark that it lost some of it's coverage. I fully believe if you set it, this will be flawless even by the end of the day.

Here's a better look at the 8 hr difference
Got a bit of shine going on and redness is starting to peek through. But I feel it did very well considering I was running around all over the place in the cold and wind. (also a bit of TMI but I sweat a bit from my medicines and it held up through that!) For some reason I still feel it gives a healthy look, even after wearing down.

Hope you liked this First Impressions Wednesday! And please check out my other reviews!
I post new reviews everyday
so hurry back when you can! =)

Thank you Loves! Stay beautiful and true to yourself!
