My all time favorite foundation is the Lancome Teint Idole Ultra 24 hour foundation in the shade 110 Iviore C. I found out the other day that it was damn near empty. I have had it for over 3 years because at first I used it very seldom and didn't use it regularly until the last few months. I was going to go to Macy's to buy more since that was where it was first purchased. I looked online and it was retailed at $54.00 without tax included. I have a limited amount to spend on my foundation as well as wanting to buy new nail polish later as well.
As you could guess I was devastated. I had that foundation for a long time and loved the color and that there were no touch-ups needed with it throughout the day. I was bummed but today I did another search. I looked on Overstock and found it for $46.49e. No tax and free shipping since the item was over $45.00. You can picture me doing my happy dance now. Sure I won't get it the same day but I saved some money and can deal. I suppose I can try to milk my current bottle until it's very last drop until I receive my new bottle in the mail.
What is your favorite foundation? This one is amazing. It doesn't have any harmful chemicals and was tested on sensitive skin, It was advised by Dermatologists and it was also not tested on animals which is always a good thing too so you know it's healthy for your skin. Another good thing is it's also a sunscreen at SPF 15 which is decent if you're in the sun a good amount. It's Matte but doesn't leave a sticky or powdery finish.
I just have to say, this definitely beats Cover Girl's cream foundation that you get in the oval blue case at drugstores. I used to use that but then my skin got darker and I needed something else. It always looked kind of caked on when I wore it also. You can also try it before you buy it if you go to a Lancome retailer such as Macy's or Sephora. Thanks to the makeover at Macy's years ago, I got to discover what the perfect shade for my skin tone was. It's only a tiny bit darker than my skin but blends very well.
