L’oreal Matte Morphose Foundation Review, FOTD

As you all must be aware I am forever trying out foundations (In additions to lipsticks, which of course are my first love).

I have recently been hearing about the new L’oreal matte morphose foundation and was wanting to try it asap. The other day strolling through a SS (shoppers stop, for the uninitiated :smug:) I was ‘hello mamed’ by an SA who almost made me try the Morphose foundation. And am I thankful? You shall know shortly 😀

About the product:

L’oreal Matte morphose foundation

Metamorphose your make-up!

It’s feather-light soufflé texture extends seamlessly across the skin for a transformation you can see and feel.

Pores appear virtually erased, the appearance of fine lines are reduced and skin feels peachy-soft.

The site shows seven Morphose shades. However, the store had only 5. I purchased shade no 230 golden honey, which is not on the site!

My experience with the product:

L’oreal matte morphose is a souffle foundation which comes in a glass jar with a pinkish mauve lid of plastic.

There is a small lid below the screw lid, which is to prevent drying out I guess!!

What I liked about L’oreal Matte Morphose Foundation:

  • The Morphose foundation is buttery smooth, glides on like silk and spreads very easily. I have used both Lakme souffle and Maybeliine dream matte mousse earlier but they were difficult to blend. This one blends like a dream.
  • It’s like silk. Pure luxury!
  • I apply it with my fingers as well as my foundation brush.
  • On application, it gives a glow to my face, and a dewy look which soon settles down to look matte. And I love the effect.
  • It does not break me out.
  • It did not oxidise on me.

What I hate about L’oreal Matte Morphose Foundation

  • I have noticed that my cheeks are still dewy after some time (maybe it’s the summers).
  • Also, I need to mouisturise really well or it flakes a bit. And without moisturiser it also becomes cakey.
  • I definitely need to set it with loose powder. (I use TBS )
  • Glass bottle (my pet peeve).
  • Expensive Rs 1095 INR for 20 ml (that’s less than MAC).
  • If you overdo it may shine. So you need to set it with powder/compact.

Overall Experience:

This really lasts, around 6-7 hours in Mumbai ki garmi. At the end of the day, the look is as fresh I had  worn in morning.  On an outing on the weekend,  it lasted for around 10 hours with one touch up after 6 hours.

Yes, I was thankful to the SA for showing it to me.

Will I repurchase..YES I only wish they increase the quantity to 30 ml.

  3. Even I love foundations…. :makeup: but after blushes….. :happydance:

    Right now my fav….is MAC Pro Longwear…followed by Studio Fix Fluid…..gives such a nice base to makeup!!!!!! :specs:

          1. :spank: to anyone who doesnt understand this…..Rati is right….both are foundations……and they both are good!!!!

            1. :lol2: :lol2: :lol2: :lol2: :lol2: :lol2: Shivani she meant she likes pro long wear foundation thoda zyada than studio fix :puchhi:

              1. :hihi: you are funny….Nia says…foundation per foundation….Rati says waah waah…..are haan….foundation per foundation per foundation….Rati says waah waah….Nia says ab to foundation per foundation per foundation…waah waah…

                Nia says ” So that I can buy & try newer ones fatafat na!!!!”….. :yahoo:

                    1. nothing…just kidding….ok to be very clear… :specs: .I like two MAC foundations…..one is PRo Long Wear and another is Studio Fix Fluid…..I like Pro LongWear as no. 1 and I like Studio Fix Fluid as no. 2

                      And no… :nono: I do not apply foundation per foundation….I apply just 1 layer. :waytogo:

  7. Hi shivani .
    I have been searching for its review since a week. browsed everywhere. then came ur review.
    Thanks a lot.
    By the way ur features are too good. especially lips and nose.
    even I love mousse foundations.
    last week I bought maybelline dream matte mousse.
    i wishi could ve checked jomol’s review on it.
    my bad !!!
    it blends well but my skin turns super oily within half an hour.
    then i bought max factor panstick foundation.
    but still am on hunting a perfect matte foundation for my super oily skin.
    i wanted to try bourjouis matte mousse . but they have only two shades.
    thus in one weeks time my wallet has lost lost its thickness
    and I feel really sorry
    so i zeroed down to either buy loreal matte mousse or revlon mousse.
    I prefer my foundation to have a powder effect on my skin.it should be matte too
    as i dont like using a compact.
    please suggest me which one to go for..
    but in ur pictures, it looks very dewy especially nose and cheeks?
    Is it bcoz of flash ?
    does this have sunscreen ?
    all beautiful girls help appreciated :clap:

  8. hey Shivani, nice review, I have oily combination skin, i think I can give it a try. N which lipstic are u wearing? Liked the shade :manicure: :manicure:
