What is best chanel foundation
HOW TO CHOOSE THE BEST CHANEL FOUNDATION FOR YOU
hey beauties welcome back to my channel
in today's video I will be sharing
everything you need to know in order to
choose the best Chanel foundation for
you I did this video several years ago
now and to this day it's my second most
viewed video but so much has changed
since then so it's really due for an
update I'll be presenting these
foundations today and order a least
amount of coverage to most amount of
coverage that way it gives us some
organization it's a lot better than
trying to rank them or do least favorite
most favorite everybody's going to have
different preferences so we'll go
through each one we'll talk about the
ingredients the difference is between
them and then I'm also going to show you
what they look like on my skin that way
you can see the application by the end
of today's video you'll have a much
better idea of which foundation will
work for you
you'll have to pardon me I'm a peer down
at my notes every once in a while but
the first foundation here I have to talk
about is the Lee bass water fresh tint
which is sort of a foundation but it's
not it's definitely the lightest
coverage so this retails for $65 it's
available in six different shades I use
the shade medium this is meant to offer
eight hours of hydration it has a very
glowy finish and no SPF now this water
fresh tint comes with a little mini
kabuki brush it looks like a little
travel brush I lost mine you certainly
can apply it with the brush you'll
achieve great results but you don't need
to use that brush you can use any
foundation brush that you typically use
or you can just apply it with your
fingers I do like to use this with the
brush
simply because I find that the bristles
break up the little droplets of pigment
so it just makes it a little bit faster
there are three different ways you can
use the water fresh tint the first way
you can use it is as a primer put this
underneath another foundation on the
list or another foundation that you own
it's going to help to correct your
complexion so if you have any redness
hyperpigmentation rosacea you can also
use it by itself of course there are
plenty of people out there who prefer a
no makeup makeup or at least they want
to see their skin shining through
something like this gives the illusion
that
your skin is perfect it's incredible the
third way to use the water fresh tint
listed on the Chanel website is for
touch-up when you apply it to your skin
you think wow because it also has that
really beautiful Sheen that glowy it is
really gorgeous on the skin as long as
you don't need a ton of coverage or you
don't want a lot of coverage this is
beautiful it's not going to be for
people who want coverage let me just put
it out there because I know some people
love this and they swear by it and other
people think it's the devil and they
have no idea what the purpose is the
second foundation has a little bit more
coverage than the water fresh tin this
is the ladies sheer healthy glow
moisturizing tin this is also only
available in those six shades again I
have medium it retails for $40 it has
kolonko extract which helps the skin to
naturally repair itself
it also has SPF 30 this would be the
equivalent of the Chanel tinted
moisturizer and I am so happy that I did
this video I don't remember the last
time I used the moisturizing tint but I
was really impressed it was nice and
glowy and gave a decent amount of
coverage it really is moisturizing so
this is going to be best suited for
anybody with dry skin normal skin as
well but if you have oily skin I would
steer clear from the moisturizing tint
this is going to be great for anybody
who spends a lot of time outdoors
because it's a great everyday complexion
product you have your SPF 30 it's not
incredibly heavy if you live in a warm
climate you're outside all the time and
that Sun is always beating down on you
this is really great
anybody who likes lake coverage with dry
skin is going to love this
the third foundation I want to talk
about is Vita Lumiere aqua this is one
of these Chanel essentials and it has to
be the most popular foundation from
Chanel it's beautiful
I've owned it in the past I don't
currently have it on the last day that
the stores were open I ran into my local
Nordstrom and I picked up a little
sample jar of all of the foundations
that I didn't have so when I show you
video applying the foundation it truly
is the Vita Lumiere aqua and I wear
beige 30 this foundation retail
for $50 it comes in a bottle that looks
nearly identical to this Lea beige
moisturizing tint it's just a different
color bottle it's available in 17
different shades it has SPF 15 it's
water-based so you definitely have to
give it a little shake you'll notice a
difference if you don't shake the bottle
properly each and every time I know it's
annoying it'll come out very thin and
then in a couple months you'll realize
that suddenly it's incredibly thick and
you have nothing left so you have to
make sure you give it a nice little
shake there's a ball in there so you can
hear it rattling around it's light to
medium coverage it is buildable and it
has a natural finish because it's water
based versus moisturizing oil based if
you have oily skin I told you to steer
clear from moisturizing tint you're
better off going with the Vita Lumiere
aqua it only has SPF 15 versus the 30
depending on where you're wearing the
foundation that may not be as much of an
issue because it's not incredibly mapped
it's not incredibly luminous
it doesn't have a ton of coverage it's
buildable it can be light it's just kind
of perfect all around and that's another
foundation that I was excited to wear
again and I remember saying to myself as
soon as I run out of my bottle I'm going
to pick this back up again but that's
sort of the YouTuber curse because you
end up stockpiling all of these
foundations and then it seems wasteful
to go ahead and repurchase restock an
old foundation before you get rid of
some of the ones that you currently have
but I do absolutely love you to lunar
aqua I highly recommend it and I think
it's sort of best suited for everybody
it really is that beautiful foundation I
know plenty of mature women I always
kind of laugh when we say mature but
people with more mature skin can still
wear we do Lumiere aqua I mean if you
are very dry is it going to be the best
choice probably not if your oily it
works for you it's not the most matte
foundation option either
and also it's a decent price point at
fifty dollars it is one of the lower
price points the Labor Schmoyer icing
tint at forty dollars is going to be the
least expensive option but if price
point is a
factor for you $50 is pretty reasonable
coming in at number four is the original
Vita Lumiere
which comes in a glass bottle this is
another foundation that I don't
currently own I've owned it in the past
but I do have my little sample and I
used the shade 30 but it's not 30 beige
it's actually 30 Sendra this foundation
is a little bit strange it's only
available in 8 shades this is not a
wildly popular foundation for that
reason it has medium coverage I would
say it's medium buildable
it contains walnut extract and marine
extracts so there are some skincare
benefits in there it has a radiant
finish this foundation is beautiful for
anybody with dry skin all of the shades
run a little bit yellow gold so if you
have a pink undertone if you're
incredibly fair if you're incredibly
dark you can't wear this foundation not
a lot of people can I mean eight shades
is not very extensive I pulled up the
website quick because I wanted to double
check and the Vita Lumiere moisture rich
radiant sunscreen does contain SPF 15 so
it's not a ton of sunscreen but there is
a little bit there and it retails for
$60 which I would say is the average
price point for Chanel foundation this
is a beautiful foundation it looks
gorgeous on the skin it gives a nice
glow but it's really only going to be
best suited for somebody with dry skin
who can find a nice shade match smack
dab in the middle of our list coming in
at number 5 is the CC cream which
retails for $55 it's available in five
different shades 10 20 30 40 50 I use
shade 30 beige
it also has SPF 50 muruga plum extract
which is chock-full of vitamin C it has
hyaluronic acid medium to full coverage
and it's a luminous finish I would say
this is sort of a luminous matte it is
going to give you some glow but I don't
find it to be too glowy
- gracie kind of right there in the
middle know if you are incredibly oily
I'm not sure this CC cream is going to
be the best option for you I would
probably go with the fetal me rock
the ultra lieutenant velvet would also
be a great option for you if your oily
but if your normal combination if your
dry the CC cream is beautiful I've
ranted I've raved about this product
it's one of my favorite Chanel products
one of my favorite complexion products
this like the water fresh tin can be
used multiple ways you can use it as a
color correcting cream so a little dab
underneath your foundation is really
going to help even out your complexion
you can also use it as your foundation
it's kind of easy it's a nice tinted
moisturizer it comes in this squeezy
tube easy to throw in a makeup bag easy
to travel with you don't have to worry
about dropping on the floor this is a
great tinted moisturizer replacement if
you like that type of product and has so
much skincare in it so this is a
standout to me because there are so many
yummy ingredients and at $55 it's still
towards the bottom of the price list it
used to be 20 30 40 they added the 10
and the 50 it's better than it ever has
been before but it's still not great so
lots of improvement needed in terms of
shades but if you can find a great shade
match in the CC cream it is a product
that is worth having on hand because it
has SPF 50 this is great for
spring/summer if you're somebody who
spends a lot of time outdoors you forget
your sunscreen this is perfect
at number six I have the ultra Lipton
velvet this used to be one of my
favorite foundations it's another one of
those foundations that I said I would
always replace and I just haven't gotten
around to it yet but it is truly one of
my favorite foundations they
reformulated last year there was a
little change some people felt like they
could notice a huge difference for me I
couldn't notice any difference I did
half my face with the old formula the
other half of my face with the new
version and I was looking as hard as I
could
closely in the mirror I saw no
difference between them so for me it is
just like the old perfection Lumiere
velvet which I also really loved so this
foundation also retails for $50 it's
available in 13 different shades it has
SPF 15 it's oil free
it has sheer to medium
average its lightweight with a matte
finish this would be the best option for
anybody with oily skin because it does
have a matte finish but because it's
Chanel it's not extreme matte it's not
going to be drying and I know a lot of
women with more mature skin who also
really love the ultra Litton velvet so I
think it works really nicely on just
about everybody it photographs
beautifully it does up the SPF 15 but
it's not such a huge amount of SPF that
it gives splash back or anything like
that it looks very smooth on the skin
and it's pretty long wearing in my
personal opinion the last few
foundations on the list all have similar
coverage they're all medium to full so
you could sort of lump them all into
that category but what separates them is
the price the finish and the ingredients
so this next foundation is laid H this
retails for $60 it's available in 14
different shades it has SPF 25 culantro
extract hyaluronic acid it has a natural
matte finish but it's very thick and
creamy far more thick than the ultra the
tint velvet so they're both sort of
matte but very different formulas and
this is intended to give you a summer
glow or a healthy glow but really what
that means is that all of the foundation
shades reflect a pink light if you
prefer a neutral or a golden olive
undertone with your foundation I would
steer clear from lay beige I would
instead go with the ultra Litton velvet
as long as you like coverage and you
want a matte finish if you want
something with more of a hydrating
luminous finish I would go with the soup
Limoges Litton which we're going to talk
about later next we have ultra latent
this is the foundation that I'm wearing
today I wear beige 30 it's a very slight
difference between ultra low tint and
lay beige I almost think that since this
was released there's not really a point
having lay beige except that it does
have the culantro extract and it does
have SPF 25 all truly tint has none of
those things there is zero SPF in this
it is long wear 24-hour wear full
coverage it retails for six
two dollars it's available in 30
different shades which isn't really that
impressive by industry standards but for
Chanel 30 shades is as good as it gets
and they do have a nice variety so it
does get pretty pale it does get pretty
dark there's not a wide spectrum in
between but chances are pretty high that
you should be able to find a great shade
match with ultra lutein this is the
formula that I always recommend for
brides anybody who's going to a special
event if you have photos maybe you have
headshots if you want something that's
long wearing this is going to last
morning at the office until happy hour
and then late in the evening for dinner
and it lasts a long time but it looks
beautiful
that's a very important distinction
because if you guys remember the formula
that this replaced I think it was ultra
tint to knew something like that that
foundation was the long wear formula and
it was terrible it dried down really
fast it got sticky and tacky and it
would crack and it just didn't look
great for a long time the ultra latent
was the perfect reformulation it's a lot
softer it's far more forgiving because
it has a luminous matte finish if you're
incredibly dry this may not be great for
you if your oily normal combination
it'll be beautiful
problem-free the last foundation I have
here to mention is the sue blemish lit
int this retails for 135 dollars it's an
elevated price point because this is
Chanel's anti-aging skin care foundation
it's available in 10 different shades
here I have beige 50 which is very dark
for me normally but this is a great
shade match when I'm sunless tan the
soup will modulate in tons a little bit
light and when I have two layers of
sunless tanner on my 30 beige is a
little bit too pale for me honestly I
mean I don't like to make a habit of
buying foundations that are super super
dark just because it limits the time
that I'll be able to wear them but it is
nice to have a couple foundations that
truly are dark enough for me so this
actually works really nice
it contains the stain
vanilla plaintiff olya that's the key
ingredient to the entire Superman tea
aging skincare line according to Chanel
it's medium coverage I would say this is
medium to full it's one of the most full
coverage foundations I have it's a
luminous matte finish because it has
skin care it starts off looking sort of
matte ish but then not long into your
day you will realize that it is very
hydrating I learned that lesson the hard
way because as much as I love this
foundation when it's dead of summer
outside I cannot touch it I really can
only wear this foundation fall winter
when it's a little bit drier because
it's just too much for my skin I think
it looks beautiful it just feels a
little bit too heavy for me sometimes if
you have more mature skin this is the
best option for you even if you just
like coverage if you're a little bit dry
this is sort of the best option for you
I think it works for you regardless
because of the elevated price point you
may want to wait until you really need
the skin care benefits and it does come
with a little brush but just like the Li
beige water brush tint I have no idea I
think I probably held on to the brush
the first week and then it disappeared
and I haven't found it since just like
ultra latent it doesn't have SPF so it
would be great for special occasions or
any times that you are going to be
photographed if you don't want something
that's a matte finish the super Maj
really is beautiful best suited for
anybody with dry skin who wants skincare
benefits but could work really nicely
for just about everybody as long as
you're not oily if you are oily you're
not really going to love this foundation
