LOREAL Infallible Pro Glow Foundation Review

You don't hear the words "Glow" & "Longwear" often in the beauty world. The two words are just not synonymous with each other. Things are either dewy OR longwearing.... that is until now!

Loreal has introduced a new edition to the Infallible line, The Loreal Infallible Pro-Glow Foundation!


 

 LOREAL INFALLIBLE PRO-GLOW FOUNDATION

• The foundation claims to have 24 HR wear, I think only those with absolutely normal/dry skin could achieve that kind of wear. I myself got a good 10+ HRS with the foundation still looking nice, it did however wear off around the corner of my nose & mouth, which is very typical for me.
• There are 12 shades in the range, I found it very difficult to get a good color match, I wear 104 in the Infallible PRO-MATTE so decided to order 204 and that was way to fair & pink for me. Next I ordered 206 (online) and that was too pink and fair, lastly I settled for 207 Sand Beige just for the sake of reviewing in a timely manner. Still too netural cool and fair for me which was surprising because in the True Match line I wear Sand Beige and assumed the two shades would be pretty spot on, nope! I was able to make it work pretty well with a warm bronzer. In the future when the full range comes to my stores I will pick up 208 Sun Beige!
• I felt like the color range really leaned heavily neutal/cool/pink in tone, where the PRO-Matte felt more warm golden.
• Didn't enchance texture issues, looked and felt soft and lightweight on the skin.
• Doesn't have that "second" skin look, I like my foundations to look like my skin, this foundation although lovely is more noticeable because of the glowy shimmer.

About my skin type!

I have normal-dry skin, hormonal acne, texture issues.

The foundation looks really soft on the skin, it adds that "glow" without adding oily/serum feel which I'm not a huge fan of. It feels and wears like a satin but looks dewy.

 

 

I wanted to share some of my favorite foundation shades with you for a color comparison! Isn't it funny how there are subtle variations in shades but you can see overall my foundations have a very warm golden undertone, I think one of the reasons the LOREAL INFALLIBLE PRO GLOW looks too light on me is it is just too neutral/cool.

Left - Right

• LOREAL INFALLIBLE PRO GLOW 207 SAND BEIGE
• LOREAL INFALLIBLE PRO MATTE 104 GOLDEN BEIGE
• NARS SHEER GLOW PUNJAB
• LOREAL TRUE MATCH W5 SAND BEIGE
• MAKE UP FOR EVER ULTRA HD Y325
• ESTEE LAUDER DOUBLE WEAR 2W2 RATTAN
• LOREAL LUMI CUSHION W3 (A BIT FAIR FOR ME)

LOREAL INFALLIBLE PRO-GLOW 24 HR FOUNDATION

PROS

• Innovative new product at the drugstore
• Light weight & airy feel on skin
• Nice long wear
• I like the buildable sheer-medium coverage, just perfect to cover imperfections but not a mask.
•  Wears like a satin but looks glowy making it great for a variety of skin types.

CONS

• Lack of warm/golden undertones in the shade range, it felt like alot of fair medium shades in varying cool/neutral/pink undertones. There wasn't much bump up in depth of color and finding my perfect shade was very difficult.
• Sand Beige didn't match up to other "Sand Beige" shades offered by Loreal
• Although the shimmer is beautiful it may be "too" much for some people

Overall I am a fan of this foundation, I wore Revlon Skin Lights all through my teens and early twenties until it was discontinued, LOREAL INFALLIBLE PRO-GLOW is it's power house twin. Similar style foundation with a better formulation and wear time! If you want something a bit more moisturizing/"oily" try the LOREAL Lumi Cushion, same gorgeous glow, more moisture. I love them both!
