[unpaid/sample/affiliate/ad] I’ve at last got around to testing and reviewing No1 DE CHANEL Red Camellia Revitalizing Foundation Foundation and I will say up front that there are no surprises here. I love it. It feels as natural on my skin as all CHANEL foundations do and I find it a very easy wear.
No1 DE CHANEL Red Camellia Revitalizing Foundation
My shade is BD40 but I also have BD41 to show. It’s a warm beige shade that initially presents as dewy although that glow settles down as skin absorbs the hydrating ingredients. A big draw for this product is that it focuses on anti-pollution and protecting the skin so if you’re a city dweller, you might want to consider it.
No1 DE CHANEL Red Camellia Revitalizing Foundation
With 94% natural ingredients (76% of which are camellia derived), including the CHANEL signature red camellia extract, it still retains that creaminess in texture that CHANEL foundations tend to have. You can use a moisturiser underneath – in fact, if you have dry skin, I would recommend that you use a serum or moisturiser because despite it’s dewy start, I feel that it’s best for oily-normal skin types. It’s an easy wear – at home as an every day base or an occasional treat. I think there is enough pigment to give my skin a soft warmth but not so much that I feel overly made-up.

To the lipstick! It’s the Rouge Allure L’Extrait formula which is shiny and lightweight and it’s the same shade that Kirsten Stewart recently wore in a look created by Jillian Dempsey. I’m having a hopeful moment with nudes and trying several to see what I can and can’t wear – I liked the look of this shade as one that could be understated but still present.
Sadly, it doesn’t make me look like Kirsten Stewart but I really think I like it.

It’s shade 812 Beige Brut HERE, £46 but £34 if you only need the refill, and the lip pencil which I swore I didn’t need but actually might be making me a true covert with its buttery softness and gentle, non-sharp outlining is 158 Rose Naturel HERE. Actually, the lip pencils are almost completely sold out – everywhere – so I’ve listed Boots for the lipstick (in case you have points) and CHANEL who are the only ones with stock of the pencil.
