CHANEL VITALUMIERE AQUA FOUNDATION REVIEW
Welcome back Little
Ones! Could you have guessed that it was exam season? I have finally put
together a secure timetable which enables me to: write blog posts, film videos,
model, revise as well as learn to drive!
Yes, I’ve picked up driving, would you believe that I’ve just found the time to
drive?
Anyhow, I’m sorry that I've left you in the dark for a couple of weeks, believe
me it’s not been a barrel of laughs; but I’m back in business and ready to give
you a review!
I’ve accomplished so much, but to edge back into blogging I thought I would
start off simple and give you a beloved review!
THE PACKAGING:
Let’s face it, we all
know that Chanel implements marvellous packing, which is why I was heavily
disappointed when I saw this component … Yes, I know, packing isn’t everything,
but when you are paying a large sum of money for a foundation, you best be
mighty fine!
It didn’t knock my socks off, when I emulate Chanel in my mind, pure
sophistication and opulence runs through my veins, when I was face to face with
this component, I never expected a plastic squeeze tube for my foundation …
Especially from Chanel.
Convenient? Tick, you can access the correct amount of foundation, no risk of
spilling … But there’s also another mechanism which has been invented … A pump,
why could there not have been a pump in a matt glass bottle? Why did you stoop
so low Chanel? It’s not like your entire foundation line have been pumped into
plastic bottles, your le teint ultra tenue comes in a matt bottle … With a
pump?
Points for experimenting
but stick to what you know.

I’m aware that some
of you may be thinking, “wow, she’s overreacting, and completely snobby” … I’m
all for drugstore foundations, Maybelline dream satin liquid foundation is
fantastic, great shade range, longevity, and only £7.99 … And guess what, it
comes in a glass bottle, but even if it didn’t I wouldn’t care … Because it's
only £7.99.
THE PRODUCT:
Chanel, the contents
inside the bottle is pure brilliance, initially when you squeeze the foundation
out of the tube, you are met with a creamy consistency, not too thick that it’s
going to bury your pores alive, but not too watery where it slides all over the
place.
It’s the Goldilocks
of foundation consistency … Now that we’ve established that the texture is
perfect, let’s get onto how this product applies.
Traditionally, I
always prep my skin with my beloved Origins moisturiser, as well as the YSL
secrets primer, after that’s sunk into the skin, I applied the Chanel
foundation with my beauty blender, the more I buffed into the skin, the more I
fell in love with this product.
My skin appeared
radiant, healthy and goddess like … My skin looked like real skin, I know that
sounds bizarre, but some foundations place a weird film over your face, which
makes your skin beneath the makeup appear fake, (not the look I’m going for).
I was pleasantly surprised that not only was this foundation medium coverage, but I could build the coverage without the product appearing blotchy or greasy.
I was pleasantly surprised that not only was this foundation medium coverage, but I could build the coverage without the product appearing blotchy or greasy.
I’m the type of woman
that adores natural makeup, I want luminous skin without my redness starring in
the show, is that too much to ask for?
Anyhow, after I’d finished
applying the foundation, I couldn’t believe how beautiful my skin was … I’m not
a confident person, nor do I like my appearance, but I can confidently state
that was skin was perfect.
The foundation
covered everything I wanted, while still letting my natural skin shine through.
Something I should
mention, I have very dry skin … When I purchase a foundation, I need it to
moisturise my skin, and not settle in my dry patches, as soon as a foundation
highlights my dry skin; it goes flying into the bin.
Luckily enough, this
foundation aided my dry skin, making it look better than ever, the longevity of
this product is insane, for a hydrating product I made it to the 8-hour mark
before having to touch up, and even then, it still looked reasonably presentable.
Lastly, before you
use this product each time you have to shake it, otherwise the product settles
at the bottom and it comes out curdled … Doesn’t look pretty, but as long as
you shake prior to application nothing will go wrong.
All in all, if you
want luminous skin I would highly recommend this product, lasts such a long
time, doesn’t settle in my dry patches, and the shade range is fantastic … I’m
exceedingly pale, and the lightest shade (10 beige) couldn’t suit my complexion
better.
THE PRICE:
If you’ve come here
expecting a budget foundation, unfortunately this isn’t the review or product
for you … The vitalumiere aqua foundation retails for a total of, £37.
Yes … I know, it’s
expensive, but I’m the type of consumer that would pay extra if it meets all my
requirements.
This foundation
executed perfectly, I couldn’t have asked for a better product, it’s now my
current favourite and I have no idea how any other product is going to top this
one.
Seeing that it
matched my skin complexion, lasted all day, and made my skin look radiant …
It’s a win in my books.
I have no idea how
this would turn out for someone with oily skin, it may just slide off? I have
no idea, but what I do know, is that if you suffer with stubborn dry skin, this
is the foundation for you.
I know this isn’t the
most affordable foundation, but I do have other drugstore alternatives, I’ll be
listing and giving a detailed review, on the best drugstore foundations … And
yes, that will be arriving in the week.

Thank you for getting
this far, I know my reviews are always lengthy, but I want you guys to leave
with as much information as possible.
There’s nothing worse
than buying a product after reading a few short reviews, and finding out it
doesn’t work … I’ve been there and it’s extremely frustrating.
Let me know what you
would like me to write next, I’m always up for suggestions, if not then I will
control the reins and post whatever comes to mind.
I hope you have a
lovely day, I’m just about to head to work!
I love you all so very
much, thank you for reading! I will see you in the next blog post! Remember to
stay safe and stay tuned Little Ones! :) x x x
