L'Oreal Skin Paradise Tinted Moisturiser

Although this is aimed at being a hydrating tinted moisturiser, I found it strangely drying despite my skin being combination / oily. The coverage is good especially for a tinted moistuiser but I wouldn't recommend for anyone with dry skin or even combination skin.

I tested this out for a video recently (search my youtube channel 'Chloe Luckin'). I wasn't really expecting a lot with the coverage or how it would deal with my oily skin, but it actually blew me away. It lasted well over the 8 hours on my oily skin and didn't make me look shiny or oily at all - however I would need to use a matte powder with this on my forehead to last longer. It blurs my pores, covers my imperfections well, builds up great and blends like a dream. With one layer, you get light-medium coverage, but when built up you can get to medium coverage without it looking cakes. It looks natural on the skin - like your skin but better. It also contain aloe vera to sooth the skin, and witch hazel for blemish and acne prone skin which I love. I didn't break out at all with this and my skin is very sensitive. It has a light fragrance but wasn't strong and didn't irritate. I really like the coverage, as for the past year I've been going to light coverage tinted moisturisers and foundations, so the fact that I can build this up if I want to is great for me! The only negative that I have, is that the shade range sucks! I picked up Light 01 as I'm self tanned (usually I would go for light-medium or medium) and this just about matches. If my tan was starting to wear off this wouldn't match at all. It's probably not going to suit fair skin, as looking at the swatches it didn't look like I'd be able to find one for when I'm natural and I'm usually very fair. Also, I can't really tell what the undertones are from the swatches - they all look a bit orange/warm undertone. For reference, my tanned and natural shades are below: Tanned - Estee Lauder Double Wear 2W1 & 2W2, It Cosmetics Oil Free CC Cream in Medium, Laura Mercier Oil Free Tinted Moisturiser in Bisque, Chanel Les Beiges Hydration Foundation in BD30. Natural (Fair) - Estee Lauder Double Wear in 1N1, It Cosmetics Oil Free CC Cream in Fair, Laura Mercier
