Since seeing some of my favourite You tubers rave about the L'oreal infallible pro matte foundation I have been desperate to get my hands on it!
The first thing I would say is the colour range I found (in Boots) was a little disappointing. There are 6 shades I think all of which are aimed at light / medium to medium skin tones, so those who have very pale or dark skin tones will stryggle with this one. I went with 12 Natural Rose, it's an ok match perhaps a touch too dark for my liking.
I also bought the mattifying primer, boots 3 for 2 gets me every time!
I have been using the foundation and primer for a week and overall I'm very impressed! I use a damp beauty blender to apply it, I do one thin layer all over my face, then add a thin second layer to my cheeks where I need more coverage. It doesn't get cakey when layered, one of the days I didn't even use concealer! I set my whole face with the Rimmel stay matte pressed powder.
I get really oily throughout the day and tend to struggle with foundation breaking up around my nose but this held up really well. It claims to be 24 hour wear, I never keep my face on that long! But it did last from 7am to around 8pm so a good 13 hours! It feels really lightweight for a foundation with such great coverage and that is so matte.
So overall I would recommend the foundation to anyone with oily skin, at £7.99 you can't go wrong! I would put this right up there with my all time favourite Revlon Colorstay.
