L'Oreal: Infallible Pro Glow Foundation Review

Hey guys, I'm bringing to you a review on the L'Oreal Infallible Pro Glow foundation. If you follow me on Instagram or been keeping up with my blog, then you know that L'Oreal sent me a care package. There was several goodies in this package including this foundation. I actually LOVE this foundation and I even mentioned it in my "Best of Beauty 2016", so I figured I'd review it first! So ya, let's just get into this review! 

Some of my favorite face products ever!

The packaging is similar to the L'Oreal Infallible Pro Matte foundation. It comes in a tube like packaging. You just squeeze the product out. I actually like foundations like this! A lot of drugstore foundations don't come with a pump or a tube like this one, so it gets super messy! The really cute thing about this packaging is that this one comes with a glossy feel to it! The Pro Matte has that matte feel to it! I find this was a cute, but creative idea! You can definitely distinguish the two from your collection! The Pro Glow also has blue on it, whereas the Pro Matte has red (another way to distinguish the two).  This foundation also comes with SPF 15, which makes it very suitable for the summer! Since it has a low SPF, it doesn't cause flashback! It comes with 30ml of product and retails anywhere between $16-19CAD (the price varies depending on the drugstore!). You can find this at any local drugstores or stores that sell L'Oreal products. 

A look at the packaging of this foundation!

The packaging is efficient!

I love these kind of packaging for foundations!

Compared to the Pro Matte foundation

L'Oreal sent me the shade Sun Beige 208, which is my shade (they asked me what my shade was)! This foundation matches me pretty well. It's not my exact shade, but it's a good match. For those of you wondering, I have medium-tan skin with red undertones. A lot of brands don't carry foundations with a red undertone, so I always end up getting something with a neutral or warm undertone (preferably warm). Sun Beige is basically a medium-tan beige with a more neutral undertone. It's a bit light, but I bronze up my skin anyways, so it works out. I own the shade Sun Beige in the Infallible Pro Matte and they're not the same at all! The Pro Matte Sun Beige is very warm compared to the Pro Glow Sun Beige. It's also a bit lighter and has a yellow undertone to it! Therefore, I suggest that you check out the shades in person! I bought the shade Sun Beige thinking it was like the Pro Matte one, but it worked out to suit me better than the other one! I know that in Canada  not all the shades are available, so keep in mind that it's easier to darken a lighter foundation shade than to lighten a darker shade! That's the advice that I give to everyone that can't find their perfect shade!

Before I talk about how it wears and all, let's talk about what this foundation claims to do! It's supposed to have a radiant finish. It's supposed to wear for 24 hours and the coverage is medium. The texture is also air light. It's also supposed to feel hydrating on the skin! If you ask me, this foundation claims everything that I would want in a foundation! Now, let's talk about how it wore and my experience with it! 

The back of the foundations! I also put the Pro Matte beside it, so that you guys can see the comparison! 

Overall, I love this foundation! You guys already know that I love the Pro Matte, so this was no surprise to me! Even without primers and setting sprays, this foundation wears and applies really nicely! Of course, I do recommend that you prime your face and set your makeup for a longer better wear! The application process is just like any other foundation. You can use any foundation brush or sponge to apply it. The texture of it isn't thick nor is it watery, it's really in between. I find a duo fiber brush works best with it! It just blends into the skin so effortlessly! I also love to use my Beauty Blender with this foundation! It does a really good job as well! This foundation is for any skin type! It doesn't feel dry or oily. I wouldn't say that this foundation is hydrating, but it definitely is comfortable! It has medium coverage, but you can definitely build it up or sheer it out. The finish of this foundation is satin. It just leaves a nice radiant look without it looking too dewy. I actually really like that, because sometimes dewy foundations end up looking oily after a few hours. Since this foundation is more on the satin side, it doesn't look oily after a few hours of wear! You can always mix a liquid highlighter with this foundation for a more luminous and dewy look! It's also long wearing! I haven't had issues with this foundation creasing or fading away! It holds up really well (even without primers and setting sprays)! However, I would say by the 8th-9th hour, I do slightly start to get oily in my T zone. It requires very minimal touch up, so it's not a big deal! It also feels super light on the skin, almost like you're wearing no foundation! It also doesn't oxidize, which is a huge plus! It also doesn't cause flashback, even though it has a bit of SPF! That's a huge plus for me, because I can wear it to events and take pictures! The only con I would say with this foundation is that the shade range isn't the best. It was the same thing with the Pro Matte, there's not that many shades available. I think that L'Oreal should definitely add on shades!  This is such a popular foundation and I know a lot of people say it's their favorite, so it would be nice to see more shades! Other than that I have nothing bad to say! 

What Sun Beige looks like on! (I did highlight, bronze, contour, conceal, etc)

Now, I know I'm going to get people asking me, "Which foundation do you prefer: The Pro Matte or  Pro Glow?". I love them both equally! I do find my shade for the Pro Glow matches me a lot better, so I  like to use that one on a daily basis or when I'm in a rush. However, I do prefer a matte foundation, because when I doll up, I always keep on my foundation for more than 6 hours. I find with the Pro Glow, my T zone starts to get a bit oily at the end of the day and I don't have that issue with my Pro Matte. Other than that, these foundations are super similar, but just have a different finish! I legit love both of them!

Another look at this foundation on! 

L'Oreal did a fabulous job with this foundation! It's affordable, but wears like a high end foundation! This foundation has been my favorite for awhile and I know that I'll continue to love it for a long time! I've always had a hard time finding the right foundation, so that's why I'm so attached to this one! So ya, I hope that you guys enjoyed reading this review!

March Favorites 2017 (Makeup)

Hey guys, Happy April! I can't believe it's already April! This year is just zooming by! The weather in Montreal is slowly warming up, so it's starting to feel a lot like spring now! So, I have a mini March Favorites for you. If you read my March Haul, then you know that I've been really busy and I didn't get the chance to try out new/different products (my March Haul is here). However, my March Haul has a ton of new goodies, so be sure to check that out! Now, let's just get into my Favorites!

My March Favorites!

The first product that I'm going to mention is of course the new Anastasia Beverly Hills Nicole Guerrerio Glow Kit. I mean I've been living for this palette! The shades are truly stunning and different! It's not your typical champagne or gold shades, which is a nice change. However, what really won me over was the formula! I mean you're legit glowing for the gods with this formula! It's super smooth and pigmented! It leaves that beautiful wet metallic finish. The powders also blend out really nicely, so it does give you the option of wearing it as a  natural highlight. It's also really long wearing and doesn't fade away throughout the day! This palette is honestly everything! I've been getting great use out of it and a lot of my clients also been loving it. I know that I'm going to continue to use it for a very long time! Another ABH product that I've been obsessed with this month is the new Lip Palette. I mean this should be no surprise! This palette is legit a dream come true for any freelance artist! You can honestly mix and create infinite shades! The lip shades in this palette are different from one another! It also comes with primary shades, which is different, but yet so useful! You're able to darken, lighten and change the tone of any shade! It also comes with a mini palette for you to mix the shades on, as well as a lip brush! The formula itself is also incredible! It's super pigmented and long wearing! It also doesn't budge! The texture is also creamy, which makes it comfortable on the lips! I'm actually thinking of buying a back up, because I'm just so obsessed with it! 

My new obsessions!

Moving along, I have 2 other highlighters that I've been getting great use out of. I've been using the Becca Shimmering Skin Perfector in Opal on many of my clients recently. Every time that I use this highlighter, I just remember how much I truly love it! I mean this is a staple in everyone's collection! It just gives you a beautiful metallic champagne finish. I'm not going to discuss the formula too much, since I've mentioned this product several times in my Favorites before! It truly is a go to product for me! Even when I use it on my clients, like they all love it! It's worth every penny! The last highlighter that I wanted to mention is the Estee Lauder Illuminating Powder Gelee in Heat Wave. I'm seriously obsessed with this highlighter as well! I mentioned it in my previous Favorites, but I wanted to mention it again, because it came back in stock on The Bay's website! So, this is your chance to get it! It's honestly worth every penny! It's just a beautiful pale gold that leaves a stunning metallic finish! It blends really nicely, so you can wear it as a natural highlighter! It compliments multiple skin tones! I'm thinking about getting a back up honestly! 

Everyone needs these in their collections!

Another product that I've been loving this month is the Nyx Face and Body Glitter in Crystal. My cousin picked this glitter for her makeup trial for her Sweet 16 and you guys, it's everything! I can't wait to show you guys the pictures! We put this glitter all over her lid and it was just so stunning! It's a beautiful holographic silver. It just shines really nicely, especially at night! The quality is really nice and they're so affordable! The packaging is also nice and it doesn't get messy. I was browsing through the Nyx website and I couldn't find it anymore! I hope that they didn't discontinue it! If you have any news on that, let me know, because I really wanted to pick up more shades! 

Who doesn't love a holographic glitter?

That concludes my March Favorites. It was short and sweet. I hope that you guys enjoyed reading this post! I'll try my best to use newer products this month!
