What I love about Lancome Teint Idole Silky Mat?

• It stays on and on for hours at a go. I don’t need to do any touch ups throughout the day.
• It is amazingly waterproof. I was out the other day and my face was sweating because of the heat. I dabbed my face with tissue and to my surprise, not even a single speck of foundation came on the tissue.
• It gives a silky matte finish. It’s not completely matte.
• The coverage is medium and is buildable. In fact you can even go for a sheer coverage with this foundation depending on your preference.
• A very little foundation is required for face and neck.
• It is a very lightweight foundation, almost like using a tint on the face.
• It’s a mineral foundation.
• It does not give a powdery finish and even if you are not too good at applying foundation you can be rest assured that this foundation would never give you a cakey finish.
• It does not accentuate the pores or settles in fine lines. Even when I blend it at the back of my hand, it does not settle into the fines lines of my hand.
• It has a light floral fragrance, which I like.
• The packaging is compact but there is 30 ml of product in the tube. This makes it easier to carry around.
• It has SPF 16
• It has a runny consistency. I am not used to using foundations with such consistency but now I find it easier to use than rest of my foundations.

What I don’t like about Lancome Teint Idole Silky Mat:

• This foundation oxidizes a bit. The shade that is got is 02 -Lys Rose, which is one shade lighter than my skin tone. It proved to be a boon for me because after half and hour or so the foundation matches my skintone perfectly. But personally I think a foundation should not oxidize because people buy foundations that match their skin tone perfectly.

Other than that I totally recommend this foundation. It’s a great foundation for daily wear and especially for summers a foundation like this is a blessing.

My little tip would be that it is best of you apply this foundation with finger tips. Since the consitency is runny, I feel applying it with a brush or sponge would be a mere wastage of product. And here is me wearing the foundation. I have not applied powder to match the shade. Just a little blush, eye makeup and lipstick.
