True Match Mineral Foundation Reviews

I always seem to come back to the L'Oréal True Match Mineral Foundation. I generally use it lightly as a finishing powder however is also amazing just on its own. It lasts all day and is easily buildable and definitely doesn't feel cakey.
Having used this product on and off for about 9 years I have noticed the packaging has changed - and not for the better. The new inner mesh sifter(if that's what it is?) is abit weird and I can't get any product out or fit my fav large powder brush into the container ... but the product itself is SO amazing !!!!

This powder was my go to during my teenage years as it gives a light coverage that you can build up as needed. As I have moved into my late 20's my skin is drier and I find it looks more cake-y on my skin. I would recommend using a hydrating primer before using this product as it covers some areas well (e.g. chin) but looked drier on my forehead. This mineral powder foundation is still the best I have ever tried and the fact that it has been around for so long and is still a top seller hints to its worthiness.

this product does the job and is absolutely buildable ! it is a reasonable price and affordable ! a little goes a long way so be sure to tap off the excess powder onto a tray or bowl so you can put back into the container itself and save for next time. it gives medium to full coverage, with it being a mineral product it will help repair the skin and prevent future breakouts. love this product as my everyday powder ! can be used with primer to prep skin before buffing this product on or use to set makeup (over foundation or oily areas). this is long lasting and id rate it 5 stars

I despise choosing foundation but out of pure luck, I came across this little beauty years ago and haven't changed since! Best mineral foundation out there! I love the flawless coverage, and the fact that you can build the colour as you go. Just using a little bit goes a long way, so the container lasts quite awhile! Just one container lasts me up to 2yrs! It's great for sensitive skin and won't block pores. It looks more natural than the liquid kind. Highly recommend this product!

I love this foundation, I have never found another powder foundation as good as this one. It is my absolute favorite! I use this everyday & it doesn't make me break out or irritate my skin in any way. The coverage is amazing and it stays on my face all day I don't have to re apply it, the foundation itself last ages as you don't need much to get a full coverage. My only downfall is the packaging it's not very good at all, I have to use my own Kabuki brush instead of the one it comes with. :) xx

The L'Oreal true match mineral powder foundation has been the only mineral foundation I have continued to use and repurchase time and time again over the past 5 years. Beginning with the packaging, the powder comes in a small jar with holes to allow the product to come through. I gently tap the bottom of the jar to avoid an excess amount of the powder coming through, and then carefully twist open the jar to get to the product. This usually leaves no mess which is great. The mineral powder packaging also has a small kabuki style buffing brush attached to the top of the jar lid. The bristles of the brush are nice and dense, there is little shedding and I personally think it does a fantastic job at buffing the product into the skin, particularly when I am travelling it is a very convenient addition.

I purchase the mineral powder in the shade ivory, and it perfectly matches my skin tone once it is buffed into the skin. The shade is such a perfect match that it is hard to tell that I am even wearing foundation at all! I really like that even when I have a slight tan in the summer months, this shade of foundation still manages to blend seamlessly into my skin. The mineral powder itself is very finely milled – it has a matte finish which I like as it keeps shine away from my oily t-zone throughout the day. The powder isn't fragranced and does not irritate my skin whatsoever. The product buffs into the skin with ease and does not cake on the skin throughout the day or settle into fine lines. It leaves my skin feeling smooth and healthy after every use.

Whenever I use this mineral powder foundation, my complexion is always left looking very evened out, brighter, my blemishes are covered well and my skin looks flawless. The foundation has light to medium coverage depending on how much product you choose to use. The product also has spf 19 in it which I love for daily use. Another aspect worth raving about with this mineral foundation is how well it lasts on the skin. I can go a whole day 12+ without having to touch up the skin with additional foundation – it wears very well as the day goes by and feels and has the look of my skin but better. I will continue to repurchase and use this product for years to come – it is my holy grail mineral powder foundation having tried others on the market that just don't compare for me.

This foundation comes in a lot of shades so it's quite easy to find a match. I found this product to be quite sheer coverage but it's easily buildable and it covers imperfections like an oily t-zone, redness and bumps/blotches relatively well. The brush that comes with it is quite soft and it's very easy to apply. One of the best things is that it hides many flaws but it never gives you a cakey or creased look. I do find that it it is easy to overdo it though so I would suggest applying it in sun/daylight because bathroom lighting is so misleading with makeup!

this is the best foundation ever! so quick and easy to apply, i use my own brush because the one in the lid doesnt really do it for me though. i used to hate putting liquid foundation on my face and every other mineral powder ive tried does nothing, no coverage at all.. but this is amazing..so light, natural looking. i would never go back to liquid foundation ewww, see soo many girls looking like cake faces with their layers upon layers of concealer foundation and powder... why do all that when you can use this!? ive been getting it for $20 for almost 2 yrs now..but went to get it today and they stopped getting it at that price, ahhh :( but id still rather pay for it then anything else.. i brought a revlon mineral powder today and it is absoloutley rubbish..doesnt compare to this.

I have sensitive, combination, acne-prone skin.

I have tried quite a few mineral foundations and this is the worst I've tried. Firstly the packaging: it's a silly design for mineral makeup for me because usually I pick up some powder on my brush and then swirl it on the lid to get a nice even coating on the brush. Due to the lid with the scratchy awful brush on it, this isn't possible with this foundation so I'm left just trying to tap off excess which isn't as effective. The foundation itself is not a finely milled, smooth beast that I have found with other mineral powders. For this reason it goes on clumpy and unevenly. I don't know how it wear because I had to wash it off straight away because I looked terrible.

Very disappointed.
