You gotta slap it all on the face to really know.<br /><br />I think the expectation was high given the price tag, which is totally natural. But it sounds like a really good foundation, so maybe you can use this for all over as a nice natural base and just go heavier on the cheeks with another product. If I could find a foundation that was exactly the colour of my skin, I'd jump on it for sure!Liz (Beauty Reductionista)https://www.blogger.com/profile/12248806073054637457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5943243351869685029.post-21744194909768869072014-07-24T12:18:27.420-04:002014-07-24T12:18:27.420-04:00I think you'd like this, Rowena.

I've recently tried some By Terry foundations. On surface, the color matches are not all that (some are extremely orange and pink), but they look flawless on me.

There are still too many things to learn about cosmetics and how they perform on each one of us!<br />Nowadays a Chanel foundation costs that much being inferior in quality (relatively speaking), so the price doesn't bother me so much (you get the same amount with the aqua foundation, btw). I just wish this added a little oomph to the finish. It does look better as the day goes on, which is interesting! :)Lena Lhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10485496107102256334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5943243351869685029.post-87311650581254006702014-07-24T12:09:03.762-04:002014-07-24T12:09:03.762-04:00I haven't tried the aqua, so I don't have ...I haven't tried the aqua, so I don't have the comparison.
