It gives a cool, brightening effect without making your face look unnaturally pale or floating. It's as if your naturally fair skin just got a boost. 2. Surprisingly good at covering redness and neutralizing yellow undertones. The coverage exceeded my expectations, which is great since I'm mostly concerned with evening out my complexion. 3. While claims of 'egg-shell smooth skin' are exaggerated (that requires naturally good skin), this comes close. It significantly improves skin texture, making it look clear and clean. It's the best I've tried for minimizing pores and smoothing out the T-zone, which has always been a struggle. Now I understand the Estée Lauder hype. 4. After 9 hours including skating, commuting, eating, and napping, it held up amazingly well. Usually, other foundations would have broken up, pilled, or oxidized by now. But this still looked clear and radiant, with just a bit of shine on the T-zone and slight redness showing through. The longevity and wear are impressive.
Cons1. The price is steep. I bought an unopened secondhand one online to save money. 2. Despite claims of being hydrating, it feels more matte than dewy, probably due to the powdery primer. It's not too drying, but I miss the glow. However, the T-zone smoothing makes up for the lack of radiance. 3. After removing, I got one blemish on my forehead and some irritation on my chin. I have sensitive skin that reacts to many products, though Chanel never caused this issue.
TipI have a light, deep undertone, but the cool-toned foundation actually brightened my complexion. If you have yellow-toned skin, a cool foundation can neutralize it for a fresh look. Recommend using a flat brush instead of a pore brush for application. Definitely test it at a department store before buying. I did a half-face test with a competitor brand at one counter, then asked a different sales associate which side looked better without telling them which was which - they chose the Estée Lauder side. The attached photo was taken about 6 hours after testing. Note that I removed the competitor's foundation and reapplied, which may have caused some minor blemishes to appear.
