This makeup gives a gorgeous silky matte finish when first applied, but it can start to look cakey towards the end of the day, and accentuate fine lines. It would be brilliant for those with oily...

I had high hopes for this because the compact version was my HG for years until it was reformulated (why Chanel, why??) This did not provide enough coverage for my acne-prone skin, oxidized...

I love this foundation! The best matte finish with amazing staying power!. I use this mixed with Sheer Brilliance in Soft Bronze so I get that matte finish but it has dimension. I love this stuff!...

Amazing foundation that gives you that model-like skin. Wide range of shades so you can find the one that's perfect for you. Lasts more that 7 hours and it doesn't look fake no matter how much you...

I use it and it's just okay, especially for my skin. I think it might be a little too heavy for me, because i don't usually have issues with my skin. It's a tough call, b/c my skin tends to be...

Personally, I love all chanel products but I am a huge fan of the double perfection matte finish. The packaging is horrible....we have to pour it on our hand and apply it that way . ...

I have this in beige intensity 2. It is too light in the summer for my skintone, but fine for winter months if my skin is not dry. I have an airbrushed matte look once I apply with a foundation...

This foundation has been my favourite one for years. I tried two different shades (40 and 42) and I was satisfied with both. It has medium coverage. Pros: velvety feeling, controls shine, wide...

I have worn this foundation just under 2 years now, and don't know why I haven't reviewed it yet. This evens out my skintone, without making it look like I am wearing foundation. I hate the 'look...

This is my every day wear foundation. I hate anything that makes my skin look "dewey" thanks to my naturally oil slick T-zone. I've tried so many other matte foundations only to find that they...

For some reason I always come back to this foundation. I find that it is sheer but covers any redness (I use clair) and it is the best match (that I can find although it's not perfect) for my...

This product works fairly well if you want a smooth matte finish. Coverage is medium and the color is pretty decent on me (20 Clair). It dries really fast so it's hard to build up. I would use this...
