Loreal True Match foundation - A winner!

Wow, what a great foundation for $10.95. I think I got the color right on the first try with N$ Buff Beige too! Such light feeling coverage and natural looking. Finally a good foundation at a reasonable price. It doesn't lay in the lines and just gives a natural glow. LOVE!

I recently bought this foundation after reading posts on here. I love it. I found my match using the L'Oreal website. Answered a few questions and they suggested C-4. I tried it and it was perfect.

Is it greasy? ..... I can't use anything that doesn't absorb into the skin ... I keep trying all brands & always go back to Esteé Lauder fresh air make up base!!

@Theresa1121 - yes, I am one of the posters that recommended True Match foundation. The online color match is precise & they offer a wide range of tones. Glad it works for you. It's a 5-star product, highly recommended!

I usually need a touch warmer tone during summer months or winter vacations & will blend it with Armani foundation. It's an amazing dupe for my favorite liquid foundation, Giorgio Armani UV Lasting Silk.

I love the L'Oreal Tru Match Lumi, use 3 n for my light to light medium complexion and do have dry skin.

I was using BE serum foundation in Bare Shell than the new IT cushion compact but went back to this Tru Match lumi and got compliments saying they thought maybe I wasn't feeling well before but look good now, must be this foundation.

No, not at all greasy, just a soft sort of glow but no sheen, no sparkle or shine just a nice soft natural look.

I do use my Real Techniques expert face brush to apply it. I just put a tiny drop on the top of the brush, dot around my face than blend in using a circular motion till all blended, great.

So far this is the best foundation I have ever used, ever.

Now, I did just order the Tarte and only because of the super deal, tow 1.7 ounce tubes plus the brush for $54. It will have to really be something though to compete with this so will see. I just couldn't resist since this is one brand I have never tried. I tried most high end brands as well as drugstore brands and so far, nothing comes close to this tru match lumi.

I wear true match in the winter only.I live in the Southwest and it is horrible to wear in summer. Will not stay on your face and when it runs gets in your hair at temples or forehead..I wear Revelon Colorstay in the summer months or if my makeup needs to stay nice for many hours......

pattiewaddle, I just started wearing this L'Oreal tru match lumi this winter so no idea how it will be in the hot humid summer. Thanks for saying you wear the Revlon Colorstay in summer just in case I have the same problem, can try the Revlon.

so far this is light feeling on, like I have no foundation on at all but I don't use much, put a tiny dot on the tip of my Real Techniques expert face brush than dot around my face then blend in.

I can't stand anything that feels like a mask on my face or feels heavy.

Thank you for posting that the Loreal website has the tool and help determine the best shade. I was lucky and picked the best shade on first try and just answered the questions on the website which verified I chose the correct shade.

I was in Sephora yesterday and the consultant commented on how nice it was, perfect match and asked how I was able to do this in a drug store. Told her about the website.

Thanks again for recommending this!

I have to agree, the Lumi was horrible for me in the Florida summer heat/humidity. It's so humid down here, any luminous makeup liquifies and the luminous particles make me look like the Tin Man. Not a good look.

I switch to a matte powder foundation with a setting spray in the summer so that as soon as I walk out the door into the heat/humidity, it ends up looking like a natural finish makeup and I don't feel like my face is a shiny mess.

I like the visual lift serum absolute it removes dark spots by the end of bottle. Revlon photo ready is great

this is what I used before using the L'Oreal tru match lumi and did like it too, visible lift serum absolute. I do prefer a pump bottle to any form of foundation, less messy to use.
