L'Oreal Glam Sense

Left to Right: Infallible Pro Sweep and Lock Setting Powder, Color Riche Shine Lipstick and True Match Lumi Glotion

Glam Sense recently mailed over a box of L'oreal products for review. I tested, swatched and now a short post about it!


True Match Lumi Glotion - Light Glow, swatched

True Match Lumi Glotion - Light Glow, smoothed over skin
 The Lumi Glotion is a light weight, gel/cream formula that adds a natural (not glittery!) sheer glow to the skin. It can be applied on its own and it blends like a dream, but my favourite way is to mix a little of it in my moisturizer followed by my foundation. It looks very natural and the shade Light Glow is the perfect pearlized peachy pink tone to brighten up the skin. A little goes a long way!


Infallible Pro Sweep and Lock Setting Powder

This is a silica based product that is perfect for oil control. I am a huge fan of silica micro-spheres to begin with and buy it in bulk, so it's nice to see a less pricey version (ahem, Make Up Forever)  of it available in drugstores. There is a little bit of a difference though- pure silica vs. this one, which is mixed with talc (!) and a small amount of other filler powders. At the end of the day though, it still performed really well and didn't look or feel cake-y. Make up lasts all day without a touch up and it leaves the skin feeling super silky and comfortable.


Color Riche Shine Lipstick - 900 - Glossy Fawn 
Color Riche Shine Lipstick - 900 - Glossy Fawn, swatch

The perfect lipstick if you like a lipstick with a glossy finish. Although it doesn't last as long on the lips compared to matte lipsticks (didn't expect it to), the formula is pigmented, hydrating and applies smoothly. You can put a little on and pat it out to even out your natural lip colour, which is what I do, or go for a more opaque look. Either way I found that the colour Glossy Fawn is a nice natural colour, that leans more towards brown and would be complimentary to a wide array of skin tones.
