If you’re like me, you drop your makeup case on the floor by accident all the time, resulting in broken caps and shattered makeup.
Here’s a simple trick to fixing shattered pressed powder (be it eyeshadow, blush or foundation).

Lancôme Teint Idole Ultra 24h Foundation
Pros: wide range of shades, long-lasting, good medium coverage
Cons: does not apply as smoothly as teint idole 14h, slightly cakey
I had been using the Teint Idole Ultra 14h foundation for over a year before Lancôme replaced it with this new formula, now boasting a 24h lasting power. I was happy with the foundation and hoped 24h would do even better.

L’Oréal Paris’ True Match Roller
Ok, so I can guess what you’re thinking. A ROLLER foundation applicator?! They were on seriously good stuff when they came up with that. I admit I was sort of thinking the same when I saw this at the pharmacy yesterday. That and something else along the lines of them being ready to try anything no matter how weird and ridiculous to get sales.
BUT the brand being L’Oréal True Match made me think twice about it. As far as pharmacy makeup brands go, I would say that L’Oréal True Match liquid foundation is my favourite and the one I would recommend to anyone looking for a foundation with good coverage at a fraction of the cost of the bigger brands (MAC, etc) at around 9 dollars a bottle. It also has the best selection of shades in its category to my knowledge. I had to return L’Oréal’s Infallible foundation the other day because the palest shade made me look like a Ganguro.
Feeling adventurous that evening, I decided to try it and find out first hand what that roller thing is all about.
