I'm 59 and saw this reviewed on the YouTube channel Hot and Flashy. I decided to try it and love it. It's light to medium coverage and very moisturizing and dewy. I can see my skin through it so it looks very natural. The added benefit of sunscreen too!

The color has a lot of orange in it and does not look good on my skin. What happened to the velvet version of your makeup? That color 30 was a perfect match .

I have been purchasing for several years. I really like that foundation, but it hasn't been available lately, so I tried the Aqua version of it. It's coverage is too light for me. I tried the heavier foundation, and it is too heavy. I wish you would make the Vitalumiere available again.

This blends very well and feels weightless on my skin. You can't feel it to the touch either. Even in a magnifying mirror I can't tell I'm wearing it. It gives a polished look that doesn't shine or appear overly matte. It is perfect. This foundation will convince you it doesn't exist. : )

I love this foundation. It is so light and goes on incredibly smooth. I go back and forth between 2 colors of rose depending on the time of the year. Highly recommend.

Such a light, fresh makeup. I have been wearing for years and I love it more today than the first day I used it. Just a couple of drops on a makeup brush, tap on forehead and cheeks and blend out. Perfection!

This product is okay but can't compare to the one you discontinued, VITALUMIERE. it had better coverage, was more moist, and left a slight glow on the skin. Why would you discontinue such a great product? Many others feel the same way. PLEASE bring it back!

Love it. I have very pale skin and any heavier makeup shows and looks artificial. This Is perfect for my translucent skin. Love it.

It doesn't have the quality and the smell of roses like it had 10 years ago but is still a great foundation and has a great medium coverage that I need!

Why did you choose this?

CHANEL Store

I chose this foundation because the foundation I wanted was sold out. Ultra le teint Velvet B20 is the shade I wanted. It was sold out. I hope it has not been discontinued.

I have very sensitive skin and this is the first makeup that doesn't make my face itch! Great natural coverage also.

You discontinued my favorite VITALUMIÈRE and customer service recommended this as a substitute.

I previously used les beiges moisturizing spf 30 tint. I did not realize it was discontinued, very sad to hear. I hope this replacement product will be just as good. Please bring back the old one!!!!

With other makeup brands I typically wear a light foundation (medium foundations tend to be too dark, and fair foundations tend to be too light). I have very subtle olive undertones, but am usually a neutral where foundation is concerned…which shade would be recommended? I’m worried the 10 will be too light and the 20 will be too dark?? Thanks!
