![]() ![]() The demi-matte finish is breathable to me. It’s very wearable on my dry skin and doesn’t look mask-like or unnatural like some matte finish foundations do. The formula is very creamy with a gel-like texture that blends out easily. It does set very fast so you don’t have a lot of time to work so during application be sure to work quickly. It really has a nice airbrushed finish if you apply it correctly but it will accentuate pores and finer lines if you apply it without proper priming or apply it in a messy or quick manner. You don’t want to buff it on as it tends to pill but try smoothing it on gently with a brush or finger tips and use a sweeping motion with a fluffier brush to blend it out. ![]() Jai has visible pores and this look pretty amazing on his skin after application. L’Oreal Infallible Pro-Matte Foundation Swatches (103 Natural Buff) My skin is fairly smooth but I do have drier, flakier areas so I make sure to apply a hydrating primer prior to application. I don’t have acne or acne scarring but I see this being a real mess if you skin might be raised or uneven due to acne scarring issues. It tends to cling to areas and will accentuate less than smooth spots on your face. You also want a very smooth, even area to apply onto so use a good primer that fills pores and smooths out your complexion prior to applying. I’d highly suggest prepping very, very well prior to application if you have drier skin. One thing we both noticed is this is the type of foundation that will cling to every single flake, patch, or uneven area you have on your face. It does have very good oil control according to Jai the first time he wore it his face was fairly matte for six hours out of the twelve hour period he had it on. They market this as 24 Hour Coverage but lord knows I’m not wearing my foundation for 24 hours anytime soon. I ended up selecting 103 Natural Buff and it’s a little too warm for me but not a completely bad shade. I really felt like I was heading into a blindfolded purchase because I just couldn’t get any idea or feel for the color selections. It comes housed in a clear tube but for some reason the shades ALL look identical. One thing to note about L’Oreal Infallible Pro-Matte Foundation is it feels impossible to find a color match. He has quite oily skin so you can get a little preview of how it performed on both our skin types. I tested out L’Oreal Infallible Pro-Matte Foundation on my drier skin and my friend Jai tried it out as well. Right now my skin is fairly dry so I have a good deal of patch, flaky dryness around my cheeks which doesn’t make for a good testing ground for L’Oreal Infallible Pro-Matte Foundation! But me being curious simply had to try this out. I figure if I’m going to go matte I might as well try out something that’s demi-matte in finish since it’s proving all the range for Spring! L’Oreal Infallible Pro-Matte Foundation ($12.99) is a new demi-matte, oil free foundation that launches recently for Spring 2015.
