i remember all those threads yonks back but is the the product?

Went to Harvey Nichols and tried it but they were out of stock!
There seemed to be a couple of 'lumiere'
products and i began to doubt which one I needed.

OR does anyone recommend anything else for a 39 year old jus discovering make-up?

I have tried the chanel one AND i WASN'T ALL THAT IMPRESSED.

I prefer Este Lauder Individualist.

I had a glance at the chanel counter the other day and tried the little pots of vital stuff foundation.Is this what you mean ? Made my hand look young and georgous!I would love some.

i have vitalumiere and like northerner i am not overly impressed. Its nice for a night out and makes my skin feel very silky but for daytime use I prefer to use Elizabeth Arden.

NotAnOtter · 15/01/2007 18:29

yes that is it ...is it good?

what elisabeth arden do you use jampots?

flawless finish compact thing with sponge - i wet the sponge to dilute the effect - excellent coverage

I was advised against Vitalumiere for my combination skin.

KTeePee · 16/01/2007 13:11

I love Vitalumiere but I too have combination skin - so if I wear it for a couple of days in a row I do get spots (not a great look at my age!). I keep it now for going out or days when I need a bit of extra "help".

I tend to use a Boot No 7 Intelligent Colour Foundation for everyday - it's more like a tinted moisturiser really...

how dare oyu blasPHEME
i am very dry of skin so i dont have zitty gresoid skin

CountessDracula · 16/01/2007 13:13

It made my face sweaty and it was rather silvery a la Pat Butcher

I gave mine away

100PerCentCod · 16/01/2007 13:15

yes you ODNt need much at all
in fact it is one of those foudnations where oyu can only "put on problem areas" (!)

puddle · 16/01/2007 13:20

It wrecked my skin.

I blame mumsnet.

I use a really light clinique one now.

NotAnOtter · 16/01/2007 17:13

Gosh its getting a real mixed reaction. Where did I get the idea you all loved it? my skin is ok - not errs towards drier - not spotty and not really dry due to hydra xen ...is it right for me?
