Review: Yves Rocher Pure Light Foundation

 

When I saw it in the store first time, this foundation did not attract my attention. One reason is that it's housed in a very light plastic bottle. I prefer foundation to be packed in a glass jar since I feel it can preserve better the ingredients in the foundation. The other reason is because I did not believe this foundation can offer any coverage from its name. I prefer foundation to offer some coverage. To be a foundation cannot be called foundation if it offers coverage less than tinted moisturizers. Nowadays more and more tinted moisturizers and sunscreens offer light coverage which work better than some light foundations.

For some reason I ordered this foundation online one day. I read YR claimed this foundation gives a luminous and second skin effect. As a person with dryer skin, I always wish foundation can give me some luminous and glow finish instead of dull matte look. Therefore I decided to give it a try.

The foundation really gives a beautiful luminous finish on the skin. I did not detect any sparkles in the foundation. It is moisturizing on the skin and it looks moisturizing on the face. Your skin looks full of hydration and very healthy.

The coverage is actually quite good as a light foundation, it's between light to medium. But you do not see any powder traces on your skin. Your skin looks better and healthier. I agree with what it claims, it has a second skin effect.

The foundation comes with a pump and the bottle is very light which makes it very travel friendly. Though I prefer glass jars instead of plastic jars. For those people who prefer to bring foundation everywhere for touch ups, it can be your best choice.


YR light luminous foundation gives skin a hydrating feel (see above swatch).
