| Review La Roche-Posay Toleriane Teint Correcteur De Teint Fluid SPF 25 |
La Roche-Posay is a brand that has been super popular in the blogosphere for a while now. As most of you will probably know, it’s a French Pharmacy skincare range owned by beauty industry giants L’Oreal. The La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo is probably the best known product from this company and it seems like everyone, except me, has tried it!
I’ve been getting quite curious to try something from La Roche-Posay for a while now and I think that I’ve chosen a lesser known product from them to review here today. I’ve not really seen this product talked about on beauty blogs or YouTube so this may potentially be a bit of an exclusive!
The La Roche-Posay Toleraine Teint is a liquid foundation that is totally different to any other foundation I’ve ever tried before…

| Before & After La Roche-Posay Toleriane Teint Correcteur De Teint Fluid SPF 25 Shade 10 Ivory Before & After |
The La Roche-Posay Toleriane Teint Correcteur De Teint Fluid is from the Toleriane line and it doesn’t contain unnecessary or potentially irritating ingredients (such as perfume) and it is also recommended for use on sensitive skin. My skin isn’t usually sensitive so it’s not something I normally worry about but it’s still nice to know that what I’m putting on to my face will be kind to my skin. The inclusion of SPF 25 is very beneficial and it’s especially important now with Summer approaching.
The basics at a glance:
Scent: No perfume, unscented
Consistency: Liquid / fluid
Designed for: Sensitive skin
Size: 30 ml
Price: £14.18

Sounds pretty impressive, eh?!
This foundation is available in 6 different shades and having very pale skin myself, I automatically chose the lightest shade available which was shade 10, Ivory. This shade isn’t quite as Ivory or light as I would like and this creates a slightly unnatural appearance in the same way it would do with any foundation that doesn’t completely match your natural skin colour / tone. It also seems to be a warm toned foundation (golden / olive undertones), whereas I have very cool toned skin naturally, but I do like the way that the warmer tones make my skin look a lot brighter and healthier almost instantly.
It provides excellent coverage and has the effect of blurring imperfections without using any concealer. It also has a lovely, blendable and buildable texture that is very easy to work with. I like to apply this with my fingers and it very quick and easy to apply that way. This foundation has good lasting power but I always set it with a powder for extra wear time and I usually blot at least once during the day with a blotting sheet as I like to keep the finish looking quite matte. The packaging is very practical and hygienic and I wouldn’t mind seeing more foundations coming in a simple squeeze tube like this one!
I like this foundation a lot and it feels like an expensive product when in reality it is retails at the same price point as a lot of other drugstore foundations. My usual go-to foundation is the Revlon ColorStay which costs around £12.99 for 30 ml of product where as this is only £1.19 more at £14.18 for the same amount of product.
This foundation is available from Farmaline UK who are an online pharmacy stocking a wide range of French Pharmacy skincare. So, if you have ever wondered where you can buy those highly sought after French pharmacy skincare products here in the UK, now you have the answer!

I'm enjoying the MaxFactor Whipped Creme currently for a low-medium coverage and a light weight feel. I love La Roche-Posay, definitely need to give this foundation a try, as from your review it sounds like my type of foundation. I do suggest you try the Effoclar Duo it is amazing. I have been hearing people rave about for ages and this month I decided to make the purchase & give it ago…it changed my life. Not a blemish. xx
I'm having a love affair with La Roche-Posay at the moment. I use the effaclar + (but doesn't everyone!) and also hyrdeanne riche (spelling?) as a night cream. I'm interested to try this now though!

nice result !!
I so wish this was here in the US! Maybe I can find a store that ships here. Great review thank you!
I've never heard of this but it looks great! Totally agree with you on the corrective effect – it leaves your skin looking so flawless! Am very curious about the mousse-like texture too xx

This looks really good, I have a similar skin tone to you which is good for me as I now know what it would look like 🙂 I like MaxFactor, I cant remember the name of it as I don't wear foundation on a daily basis, it's a mousse one for light coverage x
Just so you know, you can get this on the Mankind website for £12.35 and free postage. 🙂
Oh, that sounds fab! Thanks for letting me know. 😊
