By Terry Cover-Expert SPF 15 Perfecting Fluid Foundation, 3 Cream Beige, 35 ml

Product Information

The Cover Expert Foundation Cover is available in 10 different shades, I have the shade Vanilla Beige which has a yellow undertone. Clogged pores and congestion are forgotten, as the By Terry Cover-Expert Perfecting Fluid Foundation SPF15 is enriched with micro-powders that nurture the skin, as well as improving its appearance. Thank you, Love Shines!! I have had personal experiences with all of the foundations you list except for the Aveda Mineral Dual Foundation, so I am going to give this my best try! Little did I know, Terry herself was revamping the formulation of Lumiere Veloutee. What prompted her to do so, I have no idea as to theexact reason. What I can say is that Terry herself takes pride in always reformulating her items for it to be better, more efficient, and more effortless. Some people may hate her for constantly changing her lineup, but I can't be mad, she's always on the search for something better. Two years later...it's finally here. I know die-hard fans who used to use Lumiere Veloutee are asking the question, "Is it Lumiere Veloutee's (LV) replacement"? It’s pretty clear that By Terry are one of the best and most recognised brands when it comes to buying products in the Cosmetics category, but are they the best? Whether you choose to buy By Terry Cover Expert Perfecting Foundation SPF15 No.7 Vanilla Beige or not will depend largely on how good the brand is, so it’s important to understand and be confident that you’re happy with a brand before you get into the detail of one of their products.

I am very similar in skin tone to you and (as my summer tan is fading) wear KGD OC-2 with a little BE-1 mixed in, Ellis Faas 104 (with maybe a little 103 mixed in) and By Terry in #9 (currently have that on today!). I can top it off with my NARS foundation powder in Santa Fe and it is a perfect match! Oddly enough, the differences between By Terry #7, #8 and #9 are negligible but if you are a true NC 30 (and will be stay that way all winter), then I think you will be just fine with #8 or even #9 (#7 will probably be too light as it is closer to a NC 25). If it helps, #8 is slightly more neutral beige, while #9 is slightly warmer/more golden (though they are both definitely more warm than cool). As already mentioned earlier, it has a really light/thin consistency. Most runny foundations I have tried are either light coverage or have a dewy finish which I am not a fan of. Thankfully, this foundation provides adequate coverage, has a velvet (non-dewy) finish and you can hardly feel it on your skin when it is applied. It has a slight fragrance which does not bother me but I think it may be annoying to some people. Despite this fragrance, I have not had any breakouts or allergies so I am guessing it may be suitable for people with sensitive skin but I can't really say. It sets into a lovely matte/velvet finish which is not drying at all on the skin and I don't think it will cling to any dry patches if you have dry skin (I have oily combo skin). I still set it lightly with a powder. You can apply this with your fingers but I use my favourite Buffing Brushes ( Real Techniques, Nanshy or Sephora Multi Tasker) and when I have time during the weekends, I use my Beauty Blender which gives the best results.Thanks so much for the question. Based on the fact that you wear Santa Fe in Nars, I think that #9 in Cover Expert will probably work. It is a hair darker than #8 (which is a touch darker than #7, which is about NC 23-25). In other words, #7, #8 and #9 are all very close in tone and depth (I am betting you could get away with wearing any of them). You ask a great question…the NC and NW label comes from the way in which MAC classifies their foundations. Since it is a cosmetics brand that is fairly accessible on a world-wide level and their foundations have a consistency across the board in terms of shade, depth and tone (e.g., a NC 20 is generally the same shade in any MAC foundation formulation, whether it be Studio Fix, Mixmaster or Face and Body), many people use NC and NW to explain the shades of other foundations that may not have such consistent labeling (e.g., names like Santa Fe or numbers like #8 don't translate across the brands). The numbers that follow the NC or NW indicate the depth/darkness of the foundation. For example, in general, a NC or NW 15 would be very light for super fair skin, 20-25 for light skin, 30-40 for medium skin and 45+ for darker skin. If you are open to a slightly darker option, then I think #4 could be great on you since it has the rosy undertone that you like in the By Terry Light Expert #1. The swatches above are pretty true-to-life in terms of tone and depth…for reference, I wear #7 in the winter months (at my palest).

The foundation comes in a dark blue tube with silver letters and has a capacity of 35ml. Usually a foundation has a capacity of 30ml, the Cover Expert isn’t cheap but you only need a little bit each time. An important factor to consider here, is just how many options you have available, there are absolutely tons of suppliers and brands offering very similar products in the Cosmetics category. All of these brands fighting to compete with each other is great news for you and us, because they’re always trying their very best to offer the best product on the market and at a competitive price…RESULT! I talked about it in my previous blogpost, I finally have found the best foundation ever, or basically the best brand that makes the best foundation. This brand has several foundations that, for me, are the best foundations on the market so far. By Terry was established in 1998 by make-up artist Terry de Gunzburg, the trailblazing industry legend, who over the past 30 years has changed the face of beauty. After spending 15 years as Creative Director at Yves Saint Laurent, where she created the cult classic Touche Eclat concealer pen, she decided to launch her own collection of products and so By Terry was born. This ultra-luxurious collection of makeup and skin care products has become a modern day favourite, as it combines convenience with efficacy seamlessly to leave a professional quality finish every time. The Cover Expert Perfecting Foundation optimises the skin, masking the appearance of blemishes whilst simultaneously reducing the signs of fatigue. This lightweight foundation protects the skin from harmful UV rays and provides an enhanced, younger looking appearance. To use: Apply to the forehead, nose, cheeks and chin blending with the fingertips.
