Tarte Rainforest of the Sea Foundation Review.

Hey loves, how are you? Today I wanted to share my thoughts and review of a product I recently purchased and have been trying for about a month. 

Today we will be discussing the Tarte Rainforest of the Sea Foundation. I purchased mine at Sephora for $39 US dollars and it comes with 1fl oz.

What Tarte Claims:

What it is:
A lightweight, full-coverage hydrating foundation infused with tarte's Rainforest of the Sea™ complex and non-chemical SPF 15 sunscreen.

What it is formulated to do:
Deliver the ultimate in hydration-boosting coverage with tarte’s 12-hour water foundation. The concentrated, full-coverage fluid formula features 20 percent water to quench dry skin as it covers and masks any redness, dark spots, and uneven skintone while softening the look of pores and fine lines. The custom dropper applicator delivers the perfect level of moisture-rich coverage in an array of shades to match any skintone. Powered by tarte’s antioxidant-packed Rainforest of the Sea™ complex and non-chemical SPF 15 sunscreen, the hypoallergenic formula helps restore, brighten, and defend skin from free radical damage and early signs of aging for a smooth, soft, radiant complexion.

What it is formulated WITHOUT:
- Parabens
- Phthalates

What else you need to know:
This product is hypoallergenic and dermatologist tested.

Packaging:
 
The foundation comes in a frosted glass bottle with a dropper which has a lovely purple and golden gradient pattern. The bottle is beautiful! Since this is a glass bottle however it may not be the best if you plan on traveling with it. The dropper is easy to use and you have the ability to control how much you want to pour out.



Formula:

This is a water based foundation lightweight and hydrating while providing full coverage and 12-hour lasting power. It contains non-chemical SPF 15 sunscreen. The consistency of the foundation is runny but not overly. It feels very lightweight on the skin yet it gives a good amount of coverage. It gives a skin like coverage, it's completely gorgeous. It does even out the skin tone well and it softens the look of pores and fine lines. You are able to build it up to medium coverage but it's definitely not full coverage.


My thoughts on the foundation:
 
I LOVE this foundation!!! I use the shade light-medium beige, it gives a very natural look to my skin it does a fantastic job at covering most of my imperfection with one layer. It is very comfortable on the skin, I would definitely suggest setting it. It gives a very natural skin like finish. I especially love that it glides over my pores and fine lines without exaggerating them. 
Overall, I really love this foundation! It blends out beautifully and gives me the exact amount of coverage I need. I don't think it is long lasting as they claim, but overall with a little touch up of powder you can get a good 7-8 hours of coverage. I also love that they offer a wide range of tones. I highly recommend it! 
Let me know if you have any questions or if you have tried it and what your thoughts on it are?
Thank you for stopping by. 
Much Love,

L'Oreal Infallible Pro-Glow Foundation

Hey guys I hope you all had a fantastic long 4th of July weekend. I know I did!

Today I wanted to share my own personal review and thoughts for the L'Oreal Infallible Pro-Glow Foundation.
This product retails for $12.99 and comes with 1.0 FL. OZ

Description:
(from the L'Oreal Website)

Discover the new pro finish of longwear: up to 24 hour wear with a hydrating glow. Lightweight and creamy, this long lasting foundation goes on smooth with a glow finish that lasts. With medium coverage, it instantly hides imperfections for a clear complexion. The hydrating foundation with SPF is ideal for normal to dry skin.

It comes in 12 different shades.
201 – Classic Ivory
202 – Creamy Natural
203 – Nude Beige
204 – Natural Buff
205 – Natural Beige
206 – Buff Beige
207 – Sand Beige
208 – Sun Beige
209 – Caramel Beige
210 – Classic Tan
211 – Creme Cafe
212 – Cocoa


The color I picked up is 205 in Natural Beige.  This is actually a great summer color for me but definitely a shade darker than my regular color.

So this product has so many mixed reviews but I know I really wanted to try it. For starters I will remind you that I do have combo skin. My t-zone get oily but the rest of my face is normal to even dry at times.  I love love love the natural finish!

PROS:
  • Lightweight 
  • Easy to apply
  • Blends well
  • Long Lasting
  • Great Pigmentation
  • Affordable
  • Noncomodegenic
  • SPF15
 CONS: 
  • Sheer Coverage (Medium Coverage at most)
  • Can cause break outs. I know I broke out a bit.
  •  Poor shade selection
  •  Emphasizes pores. 
So as you can see there are more pros then cons however the cons are pretty bad unfortunately! I actually really like this product and I'm sad that it broke me out. I am torn about continuing to try it for that very reason.  So I hope this helped you guys thinking of getting it. Please know that I have super acne prone skin, so if you don't give it a try.

Have a fantastic week!
