It's absolutely perfect in every way - coverage, staying power, no creasing, and flawless skin finish. I've got over ten high-end foundations from department stores, but this one takes the crown. My friend with severe redness was always on the hunt for the perfect foundation, so I recommended this. Now she swears it's her holy grail, using it every day. She says it's the only foundation that withstands her alcohol-induced flush and oiliness! This is truly perfection.
ConsThe only slight drawback might be the shade range... but that's about it!
TipIf you prep your base thoroughly and apply this foundation, it's incredible. Even in the peak of summer, sweating buckets and being out for 18 hours straight, it doesn't budge an inch!

It provides excellent coverage and lasts for a long time.
ConsThe only downside is the price... it's a bit expensive. Other than that, I'm a loyal user!
TipFor a flawless finish, apply foundation first and then use a cushion puff to set it.

The staying power is also quite good. It doesn't darken and wears off beautifully. (The packaging is luxurious.)
ConsFor someone like me who prefers a brighter complexion, the tone was a bit disappointing. (You know that signature Guerlain tone, right?) However, the fact that it doesn't darken makes up for the shade issue. The price is wickedly high...
TipApply with a puff, blend well, and pat it in for great longevity!

I've been told countless times that my skin looks amazing with this foundation, but I've tried numerous others thinking there might be something even better out there. Yet, for over two years, it's remained my go-to among countless foundations. Highly recommended for those who want naturally beautiful-looking skin. In humid summers, apply a thin layer of Blanc de Perle and top it with a thin layer of a more long-lasting foundation in the center for a look that holds up even in the heat. Among Guerlain foundations, it may not be the most popular, but as someone who's tried both Parure Gold and Lingerie de Peau, nothing compares to Blanc de Perle. You must try it!
ConsWhile it gives the impression that there might be a better foundation out there, it's actually irreplaceable... which leads to wasting money on other products. And Guerlain gradually increasing the price makes it harder on the wallet...
TipBasically, when most foundations tend to separate, this one rarely does. But if it ever feels like it's separating or drying out, mixing in a drop of face oil gives an amazing skin finish. Of course, adding oil might cause some darkening, so you'll need to touch up with powder in certain areas.

ConsCauses darkening (if you swatch it on the back of your hand, that area turns yellowish after about an hour) The color looks dull... regardless of being light or dark, it gives an unhealthy complexion, like you're constipated Despite its good performance and year-round usability (I've finished two bottles), I switched to another product because the color was so disappointing

After falling head over heels for Guerlain's Parure Gold as my first Guerlain foundation, I decided to try this one next. The application, adherence, coverage, and longevity are all pretty solid. True to its name 'Blanc de Perle Essence', it's the most hydrating among Guerlain foundations and really enhances the skin texture. Plus, it's not ivory-toned but leans more towards a pink base.
ConsHowever... this one darkens way too much. I usually use shade 21, but even the lightest shade of this is about 22. The starting point is already dark, and it darkens even faster. It looks beautiful when first applied, but in less than an hour, it makes my skin look lifeless. Maybe I felt it more intensely because I prefer a brighter makeup look. Anyway, it's not cheap at all... I had to pass it on to my sister with a heavy heart.
TipPLEASE!!!!! Test it at the store before buying. I use Guerlain Parure 00, but this is a shade darker. I thought I could just get the lightest shade, but I ended up in tears... The lightest shade seems to be about 22. My sister has a complexion around shade 22 with a yellow undertone and clear skin without blemishes. When she applied this, her skin looked smooth and pretty, without appearing dull.

It applies thinly, making it perfect for layering, and has excellent adherence with minimal transfer after application. As someone with combination dry skin, I find the staying power impressive - it rarely breaks down. With my shade 23 complexion, this color gives me a perfectly radiant look that matches well.
ConsGiven how thinly it applies, the coverage isn't exceptionally high. When my skin is acting up and I have blemishes, I need to go heavy on the concealer before applying this. Also, the ingredients list isn't particularly impressive for a foundation.
TipFor those with dry skin who have the Espoir Pro Tailor, try mixing it with this foundation!

While not quite a holy grail, it has great absorption and adherence. It covers well, making the complexion look healthy. I was worried about blemishes since I have sensitive skin and the ingredients were a bit concerning, but there were no issues at all. In winter, I used this alone, and in spring, I mixed it with Double Wear, which improved its longevity and worked well.
ConsFirstly, it's expensive, and for oily skin types, the staying power could be better. When my skin felt hot, it always seemed to sit on top of the skin rather than absorbing. It might not be suitable for oily skin in summer. As I was nearing the end of the product, a clear layer separated, which made me wonder if it was still okay to use. I finished it anyway, and there weren't any problems.
TipIt works better in less dry weather than in cold winter. Mixing the yellow-based Blanc de Perle with the pink-based Double Wear improves the color match, adherence, and longevity. In peak summer, I use Double Wear alone, but for in-between weather, mixing them creates a non-sticky, comfortably matte finish.

The color looks natural too.
ConsIf you only use a brush to apply, it can leave brush marks. I recommend applying with a brush and then finishing with a sponge or cushion puff.

It matches my skin tone perfectly! The application is smooth and moisturizing. As time passes, it gives a slightly dewy finish that makes my skin look amazing. The coverage is just right too. I have sensitive skin, but this didn't cause any blemishes at all - I'm very satisfied! Even when I've tried products with good ingredients, they sometimes cause irritation, but not this one. Using a damp wedge puff or a dry Real Techniques sponge increases coverage and longevity while still giving a nice glow! I loved the scent - it's like a mix of flowers and powder (personal preference). It's the only foundation that doesn't emphasize dead skin cells on my nose. I'll definitely repurchase when I run out!
ConsIt doesn't really fill in pores. I'd recommend this to those who want a thin, natural-looking foundation that matches their complexion.
