Chanel Vitalumière foundation


I wrote a post about the Estée Lauder DayWear BB cream some time ago (you can read it here), I told you there are 2 make-up products that I love for the face, the Estée Lauder BB cream and the Chanel Vitalumière foundation, and this time I'm going to tell you about this foundation.

Hace un tiempo escribí un post sobre la BB cream DayWear de Estée Lauder (lo podéis leer aquí), dije que había dos productos de maquillaje para el rostro que me encantaban, la BB cream de Estée Lauder y la base de maquillaje Vitalumière de Chanel, y hoy toca hablaros de ese maquillaje. 


I had often heard how good the Vitalumière foundation was and that it was perfect for dry skin (like mine) so I had to try it, because I'd neved found the right foundation for very dry skin like mine and I finally wanted something good. The problem with these brands is that the prices aren't usually very low, so you must be sure that the product is the right for you before you decide to spend aprox. 44€, which is the price of this foundation. Nobody gave me a sample (which is actually the best way to try it before deciding), but I tried the testers in the shop and a professional applied me full makeup so at the end I decided to give it a try!

I must say I'm happy about the decision I made, the texture of Chanel Vitalumière is very fluid (better than thick foundations for me) so it applies very smoothly giving you a dewy finish. I've often had problems with other foundations before that flaked and accentuated dry patches, but Vitalumière doesn't do that! As Chanel says, the light texture gives a slightly satin finish for a radiant, natural, youthful-looking makeup. The pump dispenses the needed amount for a single application, but you must know this foundation provides medium coverage. I don't recommend this product for oily skin, and for summer I may also better use the Vitalumière Aqua version.

Había escuchado muchas veces lo bueno que es el maquillaje Vitalumière de Chanel y que era ideal para pieles secas (como la mía), así que tenía que probarlo, ya que aún no había encontrado la base perfecta para mi piel extra seca y quería por fin algo bueno. El problema de estas marcas es que los precios no suelen ser muy bajos, por lo que tienes que estar muy segura de que el producto es bueno para ti antes de decidir gastarte unos 44€ que es lo que cuesta esta base de Chanel. Nadie me quiso dar una muestra (que sería la mejor manera de probar si te va bien antes de nada), pero probé los tester de la tienda y además una profesional me maquilló completamente y al final le di una oportunidad al Vitalumiére.

Tengo que decir que estoy encantada con mi decisión, la textura de Chanel Vitalumière es muy fluida (para mi piel mucho mejor que las bases densas), se extiende muy suave y fácil y te da un acabado jugoso. Antes había tenido muchos problemas con otras bases que me escamaban la piel y me acentuaban las zonas secas, pero con este maquillaje no me pasa nunca. Como dice la propia marca, su textura ligera ofrece un resultado ligeramente satinado, natural, luminoso y rejuvenecedor. El dosificador dispensa la cantidad necesaria para una aplicación, pero también tenéis que saber que es de cobertura media. No recomiendo este maquillaje para pieles grasas y para el verano creo que sería incluso mejor la versión Vitalumière Aqua.

Estée Lauder DayWear BB Cream

I think I've never talked about makeup on my blog, so today is the time. There are 2 makeup products that are my favourites for the skin of my face: one foundation (Chanel Vitalumière fluid makeup) and one BB cream (Estée Lauder Daywear BB creme).


I'm going to start with the BB cream and I'll talk about the foundation another day.

I have tried other BB creams before this one, at the beginning there wasn't much offer so I bought the cheaper options also because I had not much idea about their effect and just wanted to try. My opinion at this point is that the Estée Lauder DayWear BB Creme is the best one, or at least it's the best one for my skin (it all depends on every skin) and among the ones I've tried.


BB creams are supposed to moisturise your skin (among other things) so you don't need any other cream, but mine is very dry so I usually use a moisturiser before, anyway the effect with the Estee Lauder BB cream is very good, my skin looks good, not oily (that has happened with others) but illuminated and healthy with an even tone. It has a very high SPF which is a plus point and other benefits that I can't confirm if they really work such as anti-oxidant...

The texture is a bit thick but anyway easy to apply and it gives you a bit of colour, not much because it's not a foundation, but the effect is really good, I actually want that fresh look that it gives and not feel like I have a lot of make up on, so it's perfect for a daily use (they say you can wear it under your foundation but I wouldn't do that). Oh! and it smells really good!! I truly recommend it.
