My holy grail foundation: Chanel Perfection Lumiere Velvet in Beige

Chanel Perfection Lumiere Velvet

Since I came back from my holidays last month I have been looking for a new foundation for the upcoming winter months. I usually have a lighter coverage summer foundation (or BB cream) and start of autumn is when I usually start to look for a new one with more coverage and staying power. And surprise, surprise!... There has been a lot of new launches recently so I was spoiled for choice. This time I really wanted to make sure I am getting myself something I can rely on and will be completely happy with!
So after careful consideration, reading countless reviews online, changing my mind a few times and talking to the sales ladies on the beauty counters I decided to go for something that is not a recent launch but had a lot of positive reviews from almost everyone.

Standing Ovation is a slightly muted shade of pink. Again, creamy and and pigmented shade. Definitely more of a day-time colour.

Do you know a type of over reaction and excitement when you see something and you won't rest until you have it? Well that is me when it comes to Paul & Joe makeup. I literally won't go to sleep unless it is on its way to my house. (!) This year's autumn collection does not disappoint.

I totally adore their printed packaging: no one does it better than Paul & Joe! There is something for everyone. The packaging is cute but it is sturdy and hardwearing at the same time (taking from experience here) so do not be fooled by its prettiness: it it designed to last. Right, enough of that because I could go on for ages... how cute it is how pretty etc... Haha!
