Artonit Foundation review
Tent De Jeunesse luminous anti-aging foundation
What it claims to do: "Teint de Jeunesse is an anti-aging tinted fluid that helps reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, helping the skin retain its moisture level. The infusion of potent anti-oxidants will protect the skin from environmental damage and free radicals. Its illuminating powders provide a self adjusting tone that will make the skin look youthful and beautiful"
Product & Price:
I have worn this foundation for around a week in order to gain better insight into the product. I am usually sceptical about trying new foundations as my skin can go one of two ways! However, reading the abstract about the foundation it sounded promising.
On the skin it immediately sinks into fine lines, and instantly fills them to make the skin look flawless and airbrushed. Despite not being able to comment on the wrinkle reducing properties as I still have young skin, I would imagine that this product would work in terms of reducing wrinkles, as it instantly fills in the lines to make older skin look more youthful.
The formula has medium buildable coverage that's very lightweight. This is a very important thing for me and others with problematic skin as nobody wants a cakey heavy foundation that literally suffocates the skin. As it's so lightweight you can build coverage up, therefore this foundation Is perfect for the day and night as you can build the layers up according to the occasion. You don't even have to worry about it looking cakey!
One of the things this product states, relates to the 'shimmer powders'. The sound of this may put people off especially if you are a matte foundation lover. but... and its a big but! The finish of this foundation is matte therefore you do not need powder (however you may add some just to prolong the wear of the products, especially If you are wearing concealer). The shimmer powders gleam through like little miracles that instantly brighten up the complexion of your skin and therefore makes it look bright, fresh and youthful. There would be no need to wear an illuminating primer with this foundation as it's all packed into 1! (This will save you money too)
I usually have dry - combo skin and this product is very moisturising considering its finish is very smooth and powder like. Packed with ingredients such as shea butter and bran oil, you can be sure that this foundation will care for your skin.
In terms of colour, it does appear to look slightly orange on the skin once pumped out, however once blended it turns into the most skin like colour. I am usually NC20 in MAC and light matches me perfectly. There are 3 colour ranges in total.
Due to testing the product for a week, I have concluded that it lasts for a brilliant amount of time. On average, it lasted around 10+ hours. I have a busy lifestyle which means that topping up on makeup is a bit of a nuisance, but with this beautiful fluid there is no need to touch up the foundation, even over spots and imperfections!
This product retails for $52.00 which is around £45.00 in the UK.(as of 03/2015) even though its priced higher than normal drugstore foundations, its price reflects the quality.
You also get 29ml of foundation!
Packaging
One of the most beautiful features to this foundation, is evidently its packaging. Its very sleek and professional looking. I love the sleek silver cylinder with the pretty logo print. The brands image overall is something quite beautiful and I love that this transfers to its product, creating a niche in the market.
The product exits via a pump that's built into the foundation. It's very rare to find a high quality foundation that comes with a pump! even the pump feels like its a high quality product. It's made of plastic so you don't have the worry of breaking it if you accidently drop it. This is usually the worry I have with most glass foundations. It's not as travel friendly as other foundations but its pretty hard to find a travel friendly foundation! You do have the alternative of pumping the product into a small travel jar.
Where to buy?
Concluding thoughts & quick-fire review:
Lightweight medium coverage foundation that will leave your skin looking flawless, smooth and youthful.
Leaves you with a gorgeous matte finish with a sheer layer of shimmer to leave your skin glowing (the right type of glow)
Beautiful professional packaging
Amazingly helpful and informative customer service
Overall, I will be buying this foundation again as I cannot be without it. I think the brand needs more recognition as they sell a wide variety of products that are , im sure, just as good. Thank you Cassidy from the Artonit team, for this wonderful product.
