If I’m being honest, my December events calendar already has me exhausted. There’s the annual office holiday, the Friendsgiving my friends and I had to keep pushing back, last-minute dinners that colleagues kept postponing throughout the year, and the additional holiday party events and plus 1 offers from friends. I’m tired and so is my makeup routine, and we haven’t even made it to December yet.
This year, however, I’m leaning on one product that I know will carry me from the welcome toast to the last call–and will keep my glam fresh and intact all night: The L’Oréal Paris True Match Hyaluron Tinted Balm. It’s a lightweight tinted balm foundation made with 80% skincare ingredients, which means it was practically made for late nights and early mornings. Keep reading to see why it’s the one I trust to survive my upcoming holiday party circuit.
What Is The True Match Hyaluron Tinted Balm And Why Is It Party Proof?
The True Match Hyaluron Tinted Balm is a lightweight balm foundation from L’Oréal Paris that’s part makeup and part skincare, and it’s built for nights that don’t slow down. Its buildable coverage melts onto skin and is designed to hold finish through hours of movement without breaking down, which means it can keep up with dancing, schmoozing with your boss, gossiping with your coworkers and all of the hugs and photo opps in between. And because it never feels greasy or heavy, the all-day comfort will have your glam intact all night.
Why The Foundation Keeps Skin Hydrated Past Midnight
Between the heat blasting at every venue and maybe on too many glasses of champagne, holiday parties aren’t exactly kind to skin. That’s where the skin-first formula comes in. Built on 80% skincare base, the balm continues delivering hydration well after application, so skin looks just as fresh at 1 a.m. as it did at 7 p.m. The hyaluronic acid plums skin and smooths the look of fine lines, and since its natural coverage is designed not to settle into fine lines or imperfections, it’s also a smart mature skin foundation for anyone who wants their glow to last as long as the party does.
How To Adjust Your Coverage As The Night Goes On
Holiday parties rarely keep the same vibe all night, and the magic of a flexible shade match is that your makeup can shift right along with you. The formula’s 12 flexible shades can be built up for more coverage or kept sheer, depending on how the night unfolds. As for me, I like to start with a sheer layer for an early dinner, then press in a little more before heading to the evening event that I know will likely have flash photography and more dramatic lighting. And if you are using it as mature skin makeup, warming it up a bit between your fingertips and pressing it in thin layers, rather than dragging, keeps coverage smooth as you build.
How To Touch Up Between Parties
No one wants to spend half the party in the bathroom redoing their makeup, and luckily, this one makes touch-ups almost effortless. The compact comes with a built-in mirror, and a quick pass with the built-in applicator refreshes the look without a full reapplication. It’s so easy to use that I can quickly freshen up in between stops and avoid the bathroom line altogether.
