First impressions! Chanel Perfection Lumiere Velvet - demo video

Forgive me bank manager, for I have sinned.  I spent €39 on a foundation having done minimal research and without trying it out on the counter.  I know.  But I lost the run of myself in town on Saturday with Joanne where she was buying lots of lovely clothes for her honeymoon and I was buying random things like three handbags, scrubby gloves and this!  The Chanel Perfection Lumiere Velvet foundation...

I know.  I need another foundation like a hole in the head, and yet I trotted happily through town after picking it up, €39 poorer.  But it's Chanel.  So there's my justification there.  Oh I have another one, it's for the blog *ahem*.  That one never gets old...

After watching a few videos about the foundation and reading a few blog posts, I knew that this was the one that would pop my Chanel foundation cherry because it promised velvety smooth skin and I would like that thank you very much.

So I decided to film a first impressions video with a demo showing how to applies on the skin while voicing some initial thoughts.  I'll be reviewing it properly when I've had more play time with it because I like to try foundations out with and without primers, using different moisturisers and with and without setting powders.

Have a wee look at my little video where I stroke my face a lot.  Little sneak peek, I think I'm going to be very happy with this little bottle of velvety goodness.  But I shall reserve full judgement until I've a couple of weeks of using it under my belt!  Here's a little before and after shot to whet your whistle.

Chanel Perfection Lumiere Velvet foundation is on counters now and will set you back €39, so go forth and buy it now, or wait for my review!
