Tinted Oleo-Serum

Really like this. Packaging, not so much.

A former Clarins devotee, I was influenced to try this by Angela Van Rose (French for a Day), as I'm moving away from foundations. Wow. I really love it! I did not use the product it has replaced, so I'm not disappointed as others may be. I strongly agree with those who have said there's something terribly wrong with the packaging -- leaky, pipette barely attached, etc. Makes it difficult to properly blend the product, which may be why others are disappointed. Took off a star for packaging. You need the tiniest amount of this, and it's just incredible. In a good way. I have repurchased, and will continue to use. (And have gone back to Clarins for my skincare.)

Light

This has a nice finish. Only the smallest amount is required.

Great coverage with treatment on it.

I have been using Everlasting Foundation for about 10 years. Not daily, just for night occasions. For daily use I apply only the tinted sunscreen. As I age, my skin (as everyone’s I guess) becomes more dry and fine lines and pores become more visible. Now that I’m 47 and leave in tropical weather of Miami-Florida; I need a foundation less thick, more moisturizing and with buildable coverage level. I apply first the Doble Serum, then a tiny bit of Daytime moisturizer, then Tinted Oleo Serum Foundation and finally some loose powder for setting. Waiting some minutes in between steps to let sink in the skin. The result is amazing. Even toned skin, light melasma spots disappeared, no pores, no cake, no matte finish but rather glowy (not dewy), last more than 10 hours without touch ups, very natural looking. If you like heavy makeup, very dark spots, acne scars; better go with Everlasting Foundation. This one is when you want a natural look, even glowy tone, just needed moisture; but not like you just came out of bed or you are the bride of a wedding.

I Love This!

This is my second order of the Tinted Oleo-Serum. I read most of the reviews before my first purchase and they seemed a bit conflicted, but I thought I will try it out for myself. I am so happy that I did!! It lasts forever, because you only need a very small amount of serum. It looks so natural but covers really well. A perfect combination of foundation that covers and serum that nourishes - my skin feels amazing! This has become part of my daily beaty routine. Thank you Clarins!

Tinted Oleo Serum.

Wonderful product. Great feel on skin. Thank you. Noticed it just recently.

I love this!

Goes on like silk, you only need the tiniest couple of drops and can build it for more coverage. Lovely light dewy finish and I find I don’t even need any concealer. Best skin tint I’ve ever used.

Good Coverage

I am still learning how to apply. This serum is thinner than what I am used to, but coverage is very good.

Just Purchased

I I just purchased this product and I am not too satisfied with. I prefer the milky capsules. I really like them. They’re much easier to put on and I like the coverage better.

Hideous. Am so glad I got a sample first

Gutted that this is the recommendation to replace the previously brilliant tinted moisturiser by clarins. The one they now do is only one colour and orange on me so the counter rep recommended this. Sounded great. But crikey it's like the most horrible thing ever...didn't blend, was dy but also oily, and sat in every pore even pores I didn't know I had so had to rewash and exfoliate my face to get rid of it. Really disappointed as loved the previous tinted nourishingmoisturiser that came in different shades for my pale skin :(

Expensive mistake, worst Clarins product

I was persuaded to buy this because the wonderful tinted moisturiser is no longer made. BIG mistake Clarins! Why discontinue a winning product? Anyway, the sales woman told me I needed shade 01 and this was the best alternative. What an expensive mistake! It sits on the face and cannot be blended, leaving whitish marks on my nose where it hasn’t reacted well with my moisturiser or SPF. Apart from anything the shade makes my skin sallow and yellowish. And don’t get me started on the fact that no matter what I do, the top gets all oily and dribbles onto me. Terrible product. Avoid.

Lovely dewy finish

I use this on top of the beauty balm which I put on 5mins before.As I'm in my 70's I was looking for a lighter foundation which looks more natural.This absoloutely fits the bill.Result is dewy and natural and doesnt need reapplication(well...maybe a tiny touch if going out at night) Only downside for me is the bottle.I decant it into a little container when travelling. Please keep making it! I find just as I get to like a lipstick,its taken off!

Wonderful for dry skin!

Overall, I love this foundation. I picked up shade 01 which is a bit too dark for me so I am hoping they will expand the shade range and make a 00. I can make it work though. I have dry skin and find the finish to be very skin like. I have applied both with my fingers and with a brush and both give a beautiful finish. I find that I don't love it when I first apply but by the time I finish my other makeup application, it has set into my skin and gives me almost flawless skin. I am 70 years old and have a lot of sun damage which this foundation does not cover completely, but no foundation that I have tried does. It provides a medium coverage with one layer and can be built up. I have found that applying thin layers works the best and applying a second or even third does not result in a cakey mess. I do powder it in my T-zone and it handles powder fine. It has a scent that is difficult to pinpoint but it is not floral or vanilla but rather seems a bit like grasses and herbs so likely the natural smell of the ingredients. I will purchase again.
