CHANEL LES BEIGES WATER-FRESH TINT {REVIEW}

Considering that my entire working life has revolved around the beauty

and cosmetic industry I feel slightly embarrassed that I have never

bought anything from CHANEL BEAUTÉ not even one of their many iconic

 fragrances. 

So how did I arrive at today, reviewing one of their tint products

CHANEL LES BEIGES WATER-FRESH TINT

Launched a couple of years ago I was intrigued by this product

and having tried a sample (or should I say a bit in a pot, not

very CHANEL like) I was tempted, very tempted.

On the cutting edge of microfluidic technologies in the cosmetics field, 

CHANEL creates EAU DE TEINT, the first water-fresh tint by CHANEL.

Having put this temptation to one side due to its price point

I was only able to purchase the product very recently thanks to a discount

voucher combined with my quarterly Woolworths Rewards voucher

 that enabled me to acquire and not buy, as I paid R0'S.

Happy with my "freebie" I was unfortunately not so happy with the rather

indifferent service from the Sales Associates on both occasions.

This lightweight, hydrating and instantly refreshing, the ultra-light formula

 is composed of 75% water. 

Created with micro fluidic technology, micro-droplets of encapsulated 

pigments melt into the skin on contact creating a radiant bare-skin effect. 

It provides a softened, smooth finish, for an even complexion.

There are 8 shades on offer and I was torn between 

medium and medium plus and I'm glad I opted for the latter.

The included ergonomic brush blends the tint effortlessly

 into skin for an even and natural-looking application and in my opinion

 is key to this product, as it just doesn't apply the same if you use a sponge

 or your trusted fingers, so don't dismiss the brush (like I always do)

The high quality ergonomic brush made of both strong and soft fibres ensures 

optimal uniformity.

I also advise that you follow the application method:

Dispense a small amount of LES BEIGES EAU DE TEINT onto the back of 

your hand and use the brush to gently blend. 

Apply the transformed texture to the face in a circular motion for an even application.

LES BEIGES WATER-FRESH TINT 

may be used all over the face or on specific areas,

 either on its own, under or over foundation.

I personally have only tried the "use on its own" method and it's like 

no other product that I have ever tried and whilst it offers zero coverage

it does reveal a radiant, healthy, glowing and hydrated complexion 

and I absolutely love everything about this product, 

with one exception...THE PRICE!
