Vichy Teint Ideal

A week ago, here in Slovenia Vichy introduced the new Teint Ideal line of foundations and powders with Liquid Light Technology. I had the opportunity to be part of the media lauching event as a model. Nika Veger (an amazing make up artist) demonstrated the application of Teint Ideal line on my face and gave us some useful advice. I was totally blown away by all 4 new products – liquid foundation, foundation cream, compact powder and bronzer. My absolute favorite is the Teint Ideal cream foundation and you can read my thoughts on it down below.

That they say at Vichy?
Teint Ideal illuminating foundation cream is a truly innovative Vichy’s product suitable for dry skin. It allows the skin to breath and gives a smooth and radiant result to the complextion. The formula with Liquid Light Technology and Correction Complex helps to correct your skin complexion and gives a satin and glossy natural finish that lasts up to 14h. Teint Ideal foundation cream contains SPF 20, it comes in 4 shades, it is non-comedogenic and paraben free.

What do I say?
Teint Ideal is certainly my favorite Vichy foundation line so far, mainly because it’s not too matt and not too shiny. My top pick would be the Teint Ideal foundation cream (the one that I’m reviewing today). I have it in shade 15 (neutral/yellow undertone) which matches perfectly to my skin tone (I am rather pale at the moment). I love its cream and moisturising texture that gives comfort and wonderful medium coverage (which lasts quite long – in a combination with compact powder I’d say about 12hours). It is buildable and it doesn’t look cakey or overly noticeable. You don’t need much for a nice healthy looking result. Applying it with fingertips or a foundation brush, either way it’s really simple. The packaging is simple, elegant and practical. You may prefer the glass bottle with a pump (Teint Ideal liquid foundation for normal to combination skin), but the tube is easy to use as well. Either way, they all look very prestige (do not forget that Vichy actually is a brand that sells in pharmacies). To sum up – Vichy’s Teint Ideal cream foundation gives perfect smooth, bright results, allows my skin to breathe and deals great with dry patches. My favorite foundation at the moment!
