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!
