L’Oréal Pro Glow foundation review

30th August 2016

Hiyaaaa,

Today I am going to talk about a foundation I am currently loving, If you read my target Haul post you know exactly what foundation I will be talking about.

 

It is the L’Oréal Infallible pro glow foundation that is only available in the US at the moment, which is why I ordered it from America in the first place. I was itching to try this, the pro matte gets so many good reviews and everyone seems to love it over higher end foundations, so I had high hopes for the pro glow. Plus the fact I do suffer with dry skin I love a dewy foundation which makes your skin glow. I couldn’t wait for it to launch in the UK as we always get things last, sometimes it can take a full year before we get the product here and sometimes they change the name etc so I wanted to try the real thing.

 

I believe it comes in 12 shades, I picked up 2 as I couldn’t decide what shade to get, I am pale so I’m normally the lightest shades In foundations so I picked up 201, and 202.  Depending on where you buy it the price varies as on Walmart it’s about £$10 but I paid $11.99 from target.

packaging is nice with screw top and easy squeeze bottle, it’s perfect for travel.

  • medium coverage
  • instantly hides imperfections
  • for normal to dry skin

My Review

I am really loving this foundation, It is very runny as it’s a liquid foundation so it has to be shaken before use, the coverage I would say is medium but definitely build-able to full coverage, It is a lovely finish, it’s dewy but without being wet and greasy looking, I was definitely expecting it to be more dewy and glowy on my skin as I had watched some videos and a lot of people did say it ended up looking really oily on them but it didn’t do that to me. It’s  just the perfect finish for my skin and gives you that natural radiant skin with a healthy looking glow, I’m really impressed. It covers my blemishes well but I always go over with a concealer anyway regardless. It claims to have 24 hours wear, I don’t wear foundation for that long if I’m honest but the longest I have worn this for is about 15 hours, I took it off about midnight one might and it still looked really good. It did break up a little bit on my chin but all foundations do this to me and that’s mostly where I have my breakouts, but it didn’t look oily or greasy on me, if anything it looked better the longer it was on.

I felt like my skin looked really nice and smooth looking, I couldn’t stop looking at it when I first applied it, It doesn’t transfer either but I did set it with powder as I do this with every foundation I wear. I also like to mention that my bronzer, blush and highlighter powder applied nicely as well, as I do find some foundations can make your powder look patchy but I didn’t have this issue.

It also didn’t oxidize on me and stayed true to colour. The shades I picked up work well for me, I mostly wear 201 but I do add 202 around the centre of my face where I want a bit more colour, I could actually get away with mixing these shades together as well.  I apply this using a makeup sponge, like the Real technique or beauty blender, and I also love using my artis oval 7 brush to apply this as well, both give a lovely finish.

overall I am very impressed and have been using it everyday since I got it, I just don’t want to run out now as I have no idea how long it will be until it’s out in the UK, I’m hoping we wont be waiting long, if you suffer with combo or dry skin I would really recommend trying out this foundation, it doesn’t feel like a drugstore foundation at all and it’s easily become one of my favourites in the little time I’ve been using it.

Below is a couple of pictures I took on my camera when I was wearing the foundation after a few hours of it being applied.

    Wow this foundation looks amazing on you! I’ve seen a bunch of people hauling this foundation and I’ve been waiting for their reviews before I try it out for myself. I’m definitely going to get it after reading your review! 🙂

      Hmm really I’m not sure if they have changed the policy with shipping but I had it sent to a forwarding coming in the US? And then had it sent to me from the there. It was with my mall box. Target do ship to the uk but not sure if this item was included as some have restrictions

My Santa has been and John has only got me Dalmati My Santa has been and John has only got me Dalmatian print wrapping paper 😭 this could have been my present alone and I would have been thrilled! Love how it goes with my Dalmatian baubles 🤩 he knows me so well 🎁 🖤and it’s completely recyclable 👌🏼♻️
Just the presents to put under the tree, the annua Just the presents to put under the tree, the annual Christmas Eve clean up, set up the Christmas Day table and get myself sorted and pampered and we are all ready!! Can’t wait to just chill for a few days as Christmas always goes so quick doesn’t it. I Hope you all have a lovely Christmas whatever it is you will be doing 🎄 🎅🏻🤶🏻 🎁 🍾🥂 here’s some pictures of my tree with the lights on, it’s weird as these lights I got from the range look different each time I turn them on 🙈 I think I prefer my old ones from last year to be honest👀
I’ve been looking for dog harnesses and leads fo I’ve been looking for dog harnesses and leads for a while now as we wanted something new for the new additions we have. I got Elliott’s old ones from America and I just hadn’t seen anything I really loved until I came across @popandtedthreads and I fell in love with their whole range, especially the made to order personalised ones where you can pick your own fabric, trim and hardware colours.  Of course I just had to have this monochrome Dalmatian print fabric😍🤩 I can’t believe they’re completely hand made, I’m so impressed with the quality and finish.  You can tell a lot of hard work and love goes into these so thank you @popandtedthreads my little pups are going to love their new stuff for Christmas and will look so cute!! Thought I would share incase anyone else was looking for really unique dog accessories 🖤
I really wanted to change up this Christmas Wreath I really wanted to change up this Christmas Wreath this year and add some bits to it but I just haven’t had the time, not even put up half of my Christmas decorations that I wanted to. 😭 So I just added some more snow and glitter to this and have made do 🙈 honesty where has this year and month gone...it’s flown by and I’m not ready for Christmas in the slightest, got to finish my shopping tomorrow and wrap everything, do the food shop and have a good clean up in the house! Oh take me back to being a kid and being excited for Christmas ha ha! 🎅🏻🤶🏻🎄
Another job ticked off the list and one step close Another job ticked off the list and one step closer to finally finishing everything in the kitchen yay. 😊 I really wanted an antique mirror cooker splash back, it’s the reason I didn’t go for tiles in here and went for up-stands instead as I didn’t want it looking OTT and I definitely think less is more in the kitchen. This white antique glass was specially made and took about 6-8 weeks but I love it. 🤩You can really see the antique detailing up close (swipe for pic) although we have had some slight issues with the measurements on the boxing in area around the island which we also wanted in glass. A little disappointing, so that’s got to be sorted out but I’m hoping it will be done before Christmas 🤞🏻
I just love Christmas decor ☺️ everything feel I just love Christmas decor ☺️ everything feels so cosy 🎄✨I’m surprised I’ve got any chocolates and sweets left on my tables though, because my niece keeps trying to eat them all when she comes over 😂
Christmas tree reveal 🤩🌲🎄 Although I pret Christmas tree reveal 🤩🌲🎄 Although I pretty much showed it on my Instagram stories🙊swipe for lots more up close pics....it’s a bit of a weird one this year, as I’m not feeling Christmassy in the slightest yet, this tree and all the decorations were supposed to be for the new kitchen but that plan has gone out the window thanks to the two new puppies that have taken over my kitchen. So I’ve used all these bits for the living room instead. Sorry for my lack of posts,  I’ve got a hell of a lot going on and I’m still not 100% myself. Details below •Christmas tree 🎄 -  is the snowy alpine 6ft from @christmastreeworld and I am obsessed! It’s so gorgeous and full looking! •All the flowers and sprays - from @tonyalmondonline ( my best find this year for amazing affordable decorations) •other decorations from @therangeuk and my local garden centres @longacresbagshot & @oaktreegardencentre •made the Dalmatian baubles myself it was so easy •stocking holders @homesense_ukie and the fluffy stockings are from @ebay_uk
Can’t believe how many messages I’ve had about Can’t believe how many messages I’ve had about this when I posted it on my stories over the weekend🙈 I literally just wanted something to store all my hair styling tools so they didn’t look all messy and tangled. I ended up on eBay and found and ordered these wall mounted holders...I didn’t even know they did special dyson hairdryer holders but I had to have one! I sprayed mine gold (obviously) because I didn’t want them black or silver and attached them to the side of my Ikea Alex unit and I’m so pleased with how it looks ☺️ These GHDs are also yearsssss old but some how still work perfectly and I can’t part with them because they’re a gorgeous gold! 😭
Another side of my beauty/dressing room....I’ve Another side of my beauty/dressing room....I’ve always wanted a proper dressing area, somewhere I can get ready and have all my clothes and accessories to hand. Before I was going in 2/3 rooms just to find bits, as I had it all scattered around 🙈 So pleased I went with the ikea corner pax wardrobe and got very excited over the pull out tray for my jewellery and accessories. (It’s the little things)...I don’t need no fancy pretty hammonds wardrobe....Ikea will do me nicely 😂 My bags won’t be staying like this either as I need to get another shelf next time I go to Ikea. I originally thought I needed more rail space but turns out I don’t, I think I just liked the idea of these pull out rails 🤨
I recently switched my beauty room around, (if you I recently switched my beauty room around, (if you watch my stories you would have seen) So I now have the bigger spare bedroom for my beauty and dressing area yay! And I’m so pleased with it. 😍 I’ve got so much more room now and I had a good sort out and declutter while I was at it, and no more buying makeup I don’t need✋🏻 the Dalmatian spots won’t be going back on the wall but I’ve got use for them somewhere else 👀 I love Dalmatian print but I thought with my new Dalmatian rug it was a little over kill 😂
Got these faux fur Dalmatian cushions from next fo Got these faux fur Dalmatian cushions from next for the living room...didn’t like how they looked in here for some reason, as preferred my other ones🙈 so these are now on the sofa in John’s gaming room 😂 I’m wondering if he will notice that my dalmatian print obsession will slowly be taking over in that room too 👀🙊
I love me some gold and spotty print office statio I love me some gold and spotty print office stationery!! America have the best stuff, which I’m sorry to say is where most of this is from but I often see gorgeous bits in tkmaxx and Homesense. Now my desk is all clean and tidy I must get back to actually blogging and doing some work 👀✍🏻👩🏼‍💻
Never seen such gorgeous and unusual coloured pamp Never seen such gorgeous and unusual coloured pampas before. 😍 Absolutely love @foxglove.studio / @foxglove.studiothekiosk for their amazing selection of dried flowers and the service is always brilliant. These are like a grey/ silver tone and are absolutely beautiful and so fluffy. I’m hoping their  website is up and running soon so I can browse and buy lots more 👀🤞🏻plus so many people keep asking me where all my dried flowers are from 🌾🌾
So happy I got these over the sofa side tables. I’ve had my eye on these for a while now and found them in my local tk maxx and they weren’t damaged for a change so I had to get them. They make the perfect side tables when you don’t have much room. 🖤
