An amazing friend got this incredibly expensive foundation for me as a birthday gift when I couldn't stop talking about it after trying a sample that came with my purchase of CdP's eyebrow pencil. Cle de Peau is a premium cosmetics brand under Shiseido and I have honestly never purchased either skincare or makeup at this price range to date.
Thumbs up to CdP's squeeze tube packaging! Clean, travel-friendly and you can get every little bit of the product out.
I was told by the SA at CdP that my colour was O20 and this is the perfect match for my NC20 - NC25 skin with yellow undertones. The formula of the foundation is smooth, silky and glides on my skin like a moisturizer. I usually apply it with my hands or with my Real Techniques Expert Face Brush for a higher coverage. The coverage of this foundation is medium to high, and yet, it did not appear cakey and my skin looked like a healthier version of itself.
The foundation has a dewy finish, so if you don't like that, you may want to give their Cream Foundation a try instead - which has a high coverage with a matte finish.
CdP's foundations do not contain any SPF, making it a perfect foundation on occasions where you expect a lot of pictures to be taken as there will be absolutely no flash back.

At HK$950 for 25ml of products, the price really came as a shocker. I am not a foundation girl as I usually prefer tinted moisturizers and BB creams. The texture and finish of this foundation was so amazing that even if my friend had not purchased it for me, I would have made the splurge myself. I am so happy with this product that I am seriously contemplating purchasing more of their make-up products.
If you are hesitant due to the price tag, don't be afraid to go up to the CdP counter and ask for samples. If they do not give you a packet, bring your own little jar and ask for a pump! Do not be embarrassed - there are absolutely no reason why they will not let you test out products such as foundations before making a purchase, especially at this price tag.
If you do purchase it, do let me know your thoughts!
