Laugh like there's no tomorrow

Life's way to short to waste it being unhappy. So look on the positive side and just laugh.

[REVIEW] Chanel Perfection Lumiere Velvet

Chanel has done it again! They've officially came out with a new foundation and I must say I was instantly drawn to it.

As I was strolling through the department store the other day, I went directly to the Chanel counter with a purpose. I had the full intent to buy the Satisfaction Lipstick that I've been desperately wanting but, of course, they were all sold out. Clearly I wasn't the only one that was in desperation for it. However, just as I was about to leave, since I obviously didn't need anything else, something shiny caught my eye.

(sorry, the lighting is weird in my room)

Dun, dun, dun! Please help me welcome the Chanel Perfection Lumiere Velvet Foundation!

As you can see, the design of the bottle of this foundation is very similar to the Chanel Vita Lumiere Aqua. And we all know how much I love that foundation; so right of the bat, I knew this would be a keeper! You know what they say, the best things come in small packages. It's sleek, chic, and just great for travel. Especially if you're going to London and you don't want to check in your luggage. This will definitely fit into that zip lock bag along with all your other liquids.

Just by the title, you can tell the Perfection Lumiere Velvet foundation has a matte velvet finish. Which means that it is great for those with oily skin. Pointing at myself. After using this, I realize that you will not have to use a setting powder after apply. And just to prove how great this foundation is, I wore this one day when I had to do a Honduras Turn. If you're a flight attendant, you'll understand how long of a day that is and you're on the plane the entire time in that dry, recycled air. But even after work, my makeup still looked amazing, not oily at all. Though my eye makeup was a little questionable. [insert panda emoji]


I really love the finish of this foundation because it makes your skin look flawless. However, it does this without making you look as if you're applied pounds on makeup on. The velvet-ness of the foundation allows you to remain looking like a real human while removing any shine on your face.

Though it is still a little early but I might be bold enough to say that this could replace Vita Lumiere Aqua's place in my heart. Yes, both are able to make your skin look flawless but the Perfection Lumiere's Velvet finish pushes it to the top.

I'd definitely recommend this foundation to everyone. Especially if you travel often or plan to in the future. The lasting power of this foundation is amazing and helps you stay shine free throughout the day. Yes, ladies... It isn't too good to be true. On top of everything, it smells so good!

Happy Shopping!
