Hello Flawless Oxygen Wow foundation?

Tried this today in Debenhams and it seemed lovely!

Anyone use it? Am running out of my current Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum and want to try a new one as it was good but not perfect.

Was going to go for YSL Touché Éclat foundation but there's not a counter near me and I don't know my shade.

The Benefit one seems quite expensive for what I don't think of as a premium brand tbh, at £25.

Any tips or other recommendations to try? Is Chanel Vitaluimiere worth a shot?

Am 32, pale and highlighted with combo skin, usual pore/fine lines issues but nothing major, just want a foundation I can apply quickly with fingers day to day.

Thank you oh wise makeup people Thanks

Whoops I waffled away and forgot to ask how I know if it's yellowy or pinky toned. On the website there are two shades called ivory, confusingly here I usually get the palest I can, so currently 'cool ivory' in Healthy Mix. Think yellow's meant to be more flattering, no?

Lisa Eldridge has just put up a great video using this. Sounds like she really rates it.

I find it just accentuates my pores. So did my sister iirc. Probably why they give you a pore refiner sample in with it.

Sheila - I saw it, the brightening makeup vid she did. That's why I was drawn to it.

Seems similar in texture to Healthy Mix serum - I hate the initial spend on a new foundation, I want to try it for a week to see if it suits my skin, one day isn't enough - with the snow it all seems to have slid off my face already Hmm but I was already wearing City block which is a bit greasy.

Re Chanel Vialuminere - I think the Pixiwoo sisters rated the Bourjois stuff as being very similar, well why not same company, but Bourjois cheaper- I think it was the Healthy Mix one - sorry can't quite remember (even though I am wearing it now!)

If u could sort your colour shade, ysl touché eclat is amazing. Every time I wear it people compliment it. I love it. Could you go on the website or get a friend to go in and get samples?
