LES BEIGES Water-Fresh Tint – CHANEL | Ulta Beauty

If you want a light coverage foundation, this is great!

I found the product not drying to my skin, did not have issues with emphasizing dry patches and pores, and found it comfortable on the skin. As all I wanted was a slight tint I was pleased with the product. I do not think one should reasonably expect even a medium coverage using this product, it is only good if you are looking for a sheer base. I felt it evened out my skin tone a bit, toning down red patches ever so slightly. Freckles and light scarring it cannot cover alone. If you are content for the most part with the condition of your skin and only want your skin tone to appear more even you will be happy.

Even on unset skin, my base last a decent time. I felt no need for touch ups (the coverage may also influence that) even after six hours plus time wearing. I do however have very dry skin, and am using this product during winter. It had a very ‘natural’ finish, not appearing dry or becoming greasey overtime. Even with not setting my base, I didn’t have issues with creasing under eyes or smile lines. I did not use primer or feel need to use primer, as the product has been recommended for use as a primer for heavier-coverage foundations.

When you use the foundation, you will notice there are pigments suspended in watery clear gel. At least for the shade ‘Light,’ these pigments appear darker than the product once worked into the brush and blended in the face, so the product may not appear to not match your skin when looking only at the bottle and product first out of pump. If the worked product is ever so slightly off from your skin-tone, as it is so sheer, I believe there is little room for concern once blended.

It is recommended to work the product into the back of your hand (there are always a mixing palettes too) and blend together the pigments and gel to see true color, and then apply the product to your face. You can get away with applying the product directly to center of the face, working the pigments and gel together, and blending outward- the result is still alright.

Confidence in a bottle

My favorite skin perfecting product. Let’s get the “negative” out of the way because this IS a polarizing product.. minimal coverage (does not claim to offer coverage, has more coverage than Glossier though). Not long wearing (also does not claim to be long wearing). If you want a long wearing foundation that has coverage or builds to medium coverage, this is not the right product. This is something to even out and perfect in an incredibly natural way. An ideal no-makeup type of thing. My redness from rosacea is less prominent, still there, but it looks like a heathy flush rather than a tomato. Texture is still visible, but looks oddly pretty. Dehydrated and dry spots look plump and refreshed. Overall- my skin takes on the appearance of having slept 10 hours, gotten weekly facials, like I hit the gym regularly, and eat tons of vegetables. It just glows, is completely undetectable, and it makes me feel great. Even after my redness starts coming though around 6 hours or so, those perfecting qualities are still there- I can just pounce a little powder on and be set for the rest of the day. And it doesn’t wear down unevenly so there is not any patchiness or caking in dry spots or lines. Great product for what it is.

Application: I really prefer squirting this directly on a dense flat top foundation brush and pouncing and blending it on the skin (rather than blending the product on the back of the hand first). I seem to be able to use less product that way, about 2 to 2-1/2 pumps, and get zero streaks with a dense brush. The brush it comes with works fine, but it’s small and better for those nooks and crannies around the nose and eyes (like for concealer) rather than all over.

Shade range: very very stretchy. the Light shade is truly my best match: I am typically a B12 in Chanel. But I get the Light-Medium and it warms up my complexion beautifully without looking unnatural or orange.

Easy base

This is a very sheer skin tint. I do not apply it with the included brush, I prefer to use my fingers to mix it and apply. The brush soaks up too much product. It gives the most gorgeous finish!! I wear this on no makeup days in place of a tinted moisturizer. Its a very unique product that I haven’t been able to dupe. Love it. Wish my shade (medium) was in stock more often.

So good!!!

I literally love this product. I have always enjoyed foundation, but always felt it was ‘too much’. This product is perfect for my sensitive skin, and feels like skin care going on – not makeup. Makes my skin look gorgeous without being overdone.
