HAIR COLOUR:
I dye my own hair at home using L’oreal casting creme gloss 360 (black cherry). Please bear in mind that this is a semi permanent dye and I don’t use it regularly, when freshly applied it is BLACK!! If my hair is lighter it is extremely faded and i’m probably due a colour so what you’re then seeing is mainly my natural hair colour which is a reddish medium brown.
SKIN TYPE/COLOUR
I’m 36 and my skin is normal with a slightly oily t zone and early signs of aging like fine lines as well as some sun damage and REDNESS!
I DO NOT use fake tan, I get very tan naturally in the summer as I have olive skin. My face is often a LOT lighter than my body because I keep my face very well protected to keep my melasma under control and signs of aging at bay!
My Necklace:
I get sooooo many questions about it, I’m so sorry it’s not a happy answer! Its actually 2 necklaces together, and both were gifts so I don’t have much detail, here is everything my hubby can remember! The larger disc and the chain were from Azendi, it has a picture of the moon and reads “The same moon around the world” (which is something that meant a lot to us when we first met and he was travelling with work A LOT). The smaller discs were from www.notonthehighstreet.com and they have my daughter’s fingerprints and name and date of birth and they were a present when she was born. They don’t seem to be available anymore I’m sorry!!

I hardly ever powder!
I didn’t really hear you talk about coverage? I’ve seen in the past you had hyperpigmentation. I have allot. Would this cover?
Hey, amazing video ❤
You somehow always have me convinced over a product that I'm on a fence to buy or not to. However, I'm a lil confused with the shade here, if you could pls help… when you're self tanned your shade you've mentioned as NC40-42, & here you're 3W1 (Tawny); are you self tanned here in this video, just for my shade reference.
I have had a little look but couldn’t find one! Have you done a wear test just on the Fenty one??
Oops ai just saw you in the daylight shot and it looks waaay better. Ps you are utterly charming
I love the glowiness of this foundation, gives a nice healthy appearance. SPF 45 is too high for my taste for I live in The Netherlands and sunshine is good for vitamin D 🌞
Hi Charlotte, have you tried the La Prairie skin caviar foundation? I would love to hear your thoughts on it x
Just got this today and omg I absolutely LOVE it! And I normally hate foundation altogether but it looks so natural and just perfect. Thank you so much for your reviews.
LOVE the Fenty mascara on you!
I won’t lie I went and bought this because of your video, otherwise wouldn’t have gone near it but I really love and trust your videos and true to form… this foundation is amazing and well worth the cash! Thanks Charlotte!
Hi Charlotte, doesn't this foundation remind you of the YVES SAINT LAURENT Touche Eclát All In One Glow? I've got the YSL, I'm not sure I'll get this one. Thanks for you videos ❤
Thanks charlotte love your reviews. Im a huge double wear fan with really oily skin. Do you think this is better or should i stick with the regular double wear? Thxs 🙂
I may try this out. Right now I’m just loving Lancôme Renergie Lift Make-up.
😁😁😁, another one I have to get, I wear EL nude and cannot wait to try this!!!
Hope your day went well!! 👍👍
I love this foundation I got it the second it came out it's one of my favs! Looks great on you!
Looks lovely. I will have to wait till around September hete in Australia.
LOL YOUR TOO CUTE 😂😂❤️
Which foundation brush are you using, please? x.
Your rhymes 😂😂😂
I’m glad you enjoyed this! It’s one of my favorites 🙌🏻
Hi Charlotte this foundation looks stunning on you! It's actually not bad on your forehead although I see some settling not bad at all. Looking forward to trying this after my no buy.I'm not concerned about flashback because I don't like photos of myself with a flash(or any photo with a flash) I prefer the daylight😉
I've used the foundation with and without setting powders and my skin looked very good. I also used a pump of the ELDW and that was my absolute favorite and best look for my skin. Give it a try….
How does this compare to the estee lauder double wear nude? Because I love that foundation but I fear they may be discontinuing it 😭 I wondered if this could be a replacement for it? X
I have to pick this up! My It Cosmetics CC cream is great but oxidizes on me too much
Good morning ❣️ thank you so much for this review! It looked absolutely beautiful on you, as does that shirt🥰☕️☕️
Hi Charlotte,
❤ your makeup today! One quick question do you think it would be good on a super dry flaky skin?
Please advise:)
Watched as soon as I got home 😊
Love your rhymes…made me laugh, just what I needed 😃
Hope you’re having a good week !xB
Here Charlotte. 💄😀
Oooo I’m excited🥳! I’ll probably be able to lay my grubby mits on this product in a year or two here in South Africa, but I’m still excited! ✨
Wow I think this still looks flawless! In order to even see the lines you said were in your forehead you had to zoom in closer than any person would see, and even then they are super faint. You are my go to for all things makeup. Even if I’ve heard other influencers test it, I always wait for your video before I decide to buy or not. You haven’t steered my wrong! ❤️
I wish it had a bit more coverage. I still prefer Lancôme skin feels good since they are similar. Lancôme doesn’t use as much product to build up to medium.
Isn't it just lovely?!? I cannot believe how smooth and hydrating it is on my severely dry skin. I found the Fenty very cakey on me, personally, but this one (maybe because of how thin it is) made me look like I had just applied a beautiful moisturizer. So in love!
I don't think we have this in Australia yet, so the UK isn't that behind lol
It looks great, Charlotte. If my skin would clear up, I'm tempted to try it (the SPF added into it)could potentially be a deal breaker. Estēe Lauder reformulated my HG Doublewear light- yes, I'm still bitter about that. Thank-you for the review and wear test. ❤
I was so excited when this came out, I use to be an avid double wear wearer but as I’ve aged that’s just not an option for me. Every review I’ve seen this foundation looks so dewy and wonderful. I’ve been trying to make it work for about 2 weeks now and my skin feels so dried out. I’ve tried with primer, without primer, even with a nighttime moisturizer and after a couple of hours my skin is so dried out I just want to go wash it all off. It also never looks dewy on my skin, I’m so bummed. My search continues for that “perfect” foundation.
I’ve been dying to try this!! It looks gorgeous on everybody I’ve seen!!!!
I cant wait to get my hands on this! Loving your top. 💋 xx
I don’t generally have pore problems but this just seemed to settle into all of mine. Even my daughter noticed! I really wanted to love this but it’s just not working….
Just ordered this and can’t wait to try it! Looks fabulous on you. Thx for the thorough review! ❤️
💕💕💕💕💕
♥️🇦🇺
Canada wont recieve it until May 😔
I wonder if it will ever come to canada?
Can’t wait to try this one!❤️
I live in very south Florida. Summer all year, except with a couple of spring days per year, that they call a cold front. I LOVE this Foundation! I got a nice size sample, and will buy a full bottle. It’s amazing. I wear Tawny as well. Perfect color for me too, which is hard to find. And, really appreciate the spf! Looks lovely on you.
I returned it to John Lewis today, it broke me out! Also a bit cakey around my chin in particular. Thought would be perfect as I am dry/dehydrated. Just shows even the perfect sounding product can still not be right for an individual. Bought my classic Armani luminous silk instead.
Finally! I’ve been waiting for your review!! With your lovely British accent (I have an Aussie accent so that’s why I LOVE yours 😭) and soothing voice, I can happily listen to you all day long ☺️😊
Hi Charlotte have you tried the Fresh Nude Foundation from The Body Shop? It is beautiful 🥰 xSacha
