I’ve never cared for heavy makeup and was concerned when I first tried the Cle de Peau foundation…it was so thick. Once it was applied, though, I was impressed and have come to really love it. I can cover my face with one pump, by dotting the foundation on my face, then smoothing it with the Cle de Peau foundation brush. Anything left is pulled down onto my neck. Also found that the “matte” formula still has some radiance, which I don’t mind. Although I don’t powder my entire face, I do use the Chantecaille pressed powder in my T zone. Yes, the scent is surprising, but it dissipates as the foundation settles down. And it’s hard to beat the longevity.
This is my holy grail foundation. 58 years old, oily, less than perfect skin. I wear O10. My other foundations get very little love these days. Oh, and half a pump is all I use, using my fingers
It’s amazing how changing that lip color changed the whole look. You look really good with a bright lip! Thanks for the thorough review; have a great weekend!
That foundation has phenomenal coverage yet looks natural with a pretty radiance. Thank you for this review. I’m a little concerned about the scent but, I may still have to look into it! 😊💕
I have coloring very similar to yours and it has always been frustrating trying to find a foundation that is not too yellow. Often what is hyped as neutral also ends up looking very yellow. I can see the yellow in this although that sheers out as you apply it. I find your reviews very informative.
Pampered Wolf also influenced me to get the Cle de Peau foundation. I am loving it though I got B20 and it's a little bit dark for me so I mix in a drop of a lighter foundation (Koh Gen do).
Hello, just found your channel and wanted to say that I appreciate your straight-forward, clear, and concise delivery combined with your vast knowledge and eye for detail. I have subscribed and look forward to your other content.
The Cle de Peau foundations all oxidize on me, I use the Radiant Natural (the Matte was too drying for me), but since they oxidize I had to go down a shade to O10. The B10 is perfect for me when I first put it on but then it gets too dark. I love this eye look on you. And, YOU and the bright lip!!! Really makes your eyes pop!
I think the color looks like a really good match and it looks beautiful on you. The blush color is also beautiful - I definitely want to pick that up! 😊
20:30 after applying your concealer the undereye area got worse. It's much more noticeable, I'm afraid. It happens to me a lot so if you watch it, you will see instead of hiding the undereye are it draws attention to it. It didn't happen with the first concealer you used, but it did with the second (I think it was clinique). Maybe you just put too much or maybe this one doesn't suit you. Anyway, thanks for the video and I wish you a very happy 2023.
I'm so glad you conceded to the fact that you were using way too much and that one pump is more than enough to cover the face and neck (if necessary). Have you tried colour correcting the red areas on your face? Applying a green tinged colour corrector would bring down the redness, meaning less foundation needs to be applied. I love Pampered Wolf (Gemma), her vids are fantastic and, because she's a fully qualified aesthetician, she really knows her stuff. She's also pretty funny but she doesn't mean tk be 😂. Incidentally, I bought this foundation because our Gemma loves it and she's quite right, it is a beautiful. 😊😊
I am so grateful you talked about the strong scent. Clarins foundations are too, but the worst I had was the original By Terry one, unbearable and not a nice scent either. So I will pass on this one and save me £££.
Have you ever tried covering the red with green concealer? I found a super inexpensive one I like NYX color corrector palette, but I have tried them all cheap and expensive. When I was in my 20s my skin got torn up from a combination of retinoids and birth control injections. I had really red skin then but it has since calmed down but I still use green makeup around my nose and on a broken vein on my cheekbone I got on my first pregnancy. I use the Cle de Peau Correcting Cream Veil which I bought with the Cle de Peau fluid foundation but I find the correcting cream (which I love) is all I need. Plus I have always felt like less is more for my type features and skin. But the foundation looks great on you and the concealers you use do the job.
I will probably try one of these foundations next. I just bought the La Mer liquid foundation at Sephora, and I was more than disappointed. It smelled sickeningly of alcohol. It did not sting my skin, but I was not at all impressed. It clung to dry patches I didn‘t know I had! I have never been so certain that I would return a product. I had tried a sample of it, and that was nothing like this. What a waste of my 20% discount!
So odd that the sample was different! Mine does not smell like alcohol (it does have fragrance though) I wonder if it was expired or they changed the formula...
I could have checked the date I suppose, but now the thing is packaged up for return! For that price tag, it‘s not even worth trying again. The Cle de Peau sounds good, and it looked good on you, too. I don‘t think I‘ll mind the fragrance? I enjoy Chanel‘s, for example. I am interested in good coverage, moisturizing, and skinlike finish. And long lasting if possible. 😉 I have a few to rely on until then.
I am so glad to find this channel and your comment. I have been on a quest for the perfect foundation for me. I was about to buy LaMer. But after watching this video and reading your post, I will try the CDP first. Thank you.
@@TheHoodedLid Good morning. I am glad to have found you too. I live your name lol. My lids are so hooded since hitting my 60s, they lay on my lash line. I am looking forward to learning from your videos and leave comments/likes to show appreciation. Have a lovely day.
If CdP ever offered deep discounts I may try it. Or as a gift. 😉 Crazy money! I learned about CdP from Pampered Wolf when she first tried it. Since then I reached out to the company, but unless I have a CZcams channel they aren't sending even a sample my way. 👎 And since I am very pale I cannot seem to narrow down to any one color anyway, and heavily scented does not play nice for my sensitive eyes and skin. Michele Wang was sent 2 FREE bottles. 🤦🏼♀️ *and she's a BIG $pender I must stick with companies like Kosas and their healthy ingredients. (and excellent customer service) Cold is all relative isn't it? Folks here in FL. put on parkas, hats and scarves if it hovers around 60°. I am still eagerly awaiting cold temps and would like to turn off my airco soon. ~Merry Holidays~ 🎄⛄🤶🏡🎅🦌
Hi! Little Red Hooded Lid (;-) On my screen, the foundation looks great. But this is true of several other foundations you have reviewed previously. Cle de peau skin care and foundation have always been quite fragranced. I thank you for investing in this foundation and reviewing thoroughly.
There are shades starting with BF, which are for skins with neutral to golden olive undertones. You should try BF20 or BF10, l think it could be an even better match for you?
I’m actually surprised that you chose shade 11 in Lisa Eldridge foundation, I would definitely, for your undertones, have recommended 12. The difficulties quite a few people seem to be having, getting her foundation to work, seems to be that they’re trying too hard. Try just patting it on with your fingers and without a mirror, until it’s nearly dry, then gently pat to finish using a mirror.
I don't have a rosy undertone - I have a slight yellow undertone with surface redness. It was her match finder that turned me to 11. I actually tried 9, 10 & 11 from the bubble. The 10 was supposed to be neutral - but looked olive on me.
I have normal to dry skin with my nose getting oily during the day. This foundation didn't work for me. It was sliding on my nose and somewhat settling in pores, and I don't have big pores to start with. I was wondering what was your wear test by the end of the day.
I have so many problems with high end foundation oxidizing there isn't one in Chanel that I can wear not one they had one many years ago and then they discontinued it they have nothing in L'Oreal forget about Clarence Estee Lauder no clinic yes but at the formula I want at all them know it's the drug stores that work the best for me Forsyth discontinued z L'Oreal roomy compact that was beautiful on but they came out with a new one L'Oreal did a serum and I do believe they'll have my shade have a very merry Christmas and a happy holiday

It really stays nice looking for HOURS! And, doesn't feel drying. So many good things about this one.
I love how your skin looks with this foundation

Yes, 2 pumps is far, far too much!!
This is one of my favorite makeup looks on you. Simply gorgeous!

Love the feel and coverage

You only need 1/2 a pump or less with this foundation ❤
215.00 Australian dollars - It would want to be more than good for that price!
What was the foundation you showed saying the foundation I love - before moving to cle de peau

I was watching this and yelling at the tv, you’re using too much!! It’s an amazing foundation and I wish it wasn’t because it’s so pricey.
I think it matches you better than LE #11.

How do you know if the BF you select is for golden olive or neutral? I would prefer to get this in a less yellow shade, for sure. Thank you!!
@@TheHoodedLid That is what they told me when I was matched. The B20 was too yellow for me and O20 too warm. I have neutral skintone.
Hi very pretty foundation looks beautiful on the skin but it’s a bit pricey & there are so many good foundations out there for far less money 🌹
My HG foundation. Love love
Lovely!
Please what was that 2nd lip colour on day 1 as in UK link not working
Givenchy Sheer Velevet Matte No 37
Hi! That second lip color looks lovely on you!! I tried to click the link but the page has been removed. Do you remember what you have on? I love it!
I'm so sorry - I don't remember.
Could you reveal the name of the bright lipstick? It's awsome.
I shot this so long ago, I couldn't say. You might want to check the description box I often list what I'm wearing.
@@TheHoodedLid Thanks for the reply. The link in the description box has expired.

It was great on me all day - really lasts well and doesn't break down at all. Could be incompatible with one of your skincare products, perhaps.

It's supposed to say nothing in lancome I don't know why it came up L'Oreal I said lancome
L'Oreal lumi compact
Hi Pam, choose a more neutral or cool shade to avoid the oxydation tint.
I do go for the cool always I just seems as though truck store has more choice with skin color then pi end it's the strangest thing
I love your videos. Where do you live?
Thank you! I live in Los Angeles
@@TheHoodedLid Great. I was born there and lived most of my life there
The scent is a big no for me .
