During the hotter months of the year, I usually revert to tinted moisturizer for normal daytime use. There are plenty of those days though, that I need more coverage and longer wear. Finding a foundation to do just that has been quite difficult. Until now, that is.

Lancôme recently launched a wonderful new long wearing foundation that feels like wearing nothing at all. Yes, it is a beautifully bare sensation and it is called Teint Idole Fresh Wear Foundation. It has a built in SPF of 15 too!

"This fresh formula in a convenient tube delivers weightless yet moderate coverage that instantly minimizes the look of pores and imperfections. The complexion remains flawless and shine-free from morning until night – for a full 18 hours – even under humidity and perspiration."

I say, hooray. It really is what I have been searching for in an all-day makeup. Only a small amount is needed for complete coverage too. I mean, the size of a small pea blends out perfectly over my entire face with either a foundation brush or sponge.

Lancôme celebrity makeup artist Sandy Litner explains her feeling for this new beauty: "Teint Idole Fresh Wear Foundation evens out the skin tone and then disappears, like you’re not wearing a foundation. Makeup should look effortless, especially in the casual summer months. Fresh Wear is perfect for this effortless look. It also happens to feel great on the skin.”

Teint Idole is available in a full range of 17 shades and retails for $32.00. Shop for it at your favorite Lancôme counter or online.
