Love that it has the proper consistency – not too creamy however not too matte.

Primarily based on the colour descriptions I first tried 4 Mousseline Acidulee for medium pores and skin tones which has inexperienced and lilac powders for shade correcting. I’ve additionally tried 3 Voile Rose (a bit gentle, however I could make it work) and 5 Popeline Mimosa (a bit too darkish). I nonetheless assume Shade 4 is one of the best for me though I don’t really want the inexperienced and purple tones to paint appropriate. I actually want they might make a medium shade with out the colour correctors.
Most not too long ago I attempted the Prisme Libre Pores and skin-Caring Glow Basis. I lastly discovered my match within the shade N280. Love this formulation for the pure glow and medium protection.

I’m often not a fan of liquid lips/matte lip formulation, however this one from Lisa Eldridge has probably the most snug liquid lip texture that I’ve ever tried. It has a pleasant dry down that doesn’t shrink or dry out the lips. Colours are very flattering and lasting energy is spectacular.
