BETTER THAN THE ORIGINAL? NEW CHANEL Ultra Le Teint Velvet Vs. Perfection Lumiere Velvet!

[@AngieHotandFlashy]

Hello Hot&Flashy Nation!! I'm getting so many questions about why the foundation was in the fridge! I don't normally keep foundation in the fridge but I had bought 3 bottles of Perfection Lumiere Velvet when I first heard it was being discontinued (as backup) and I had those 3 in the fridge. The one I currently use is on my desk but it's about 6 months old so I wanted to compare fresh products & got a new one out of the fridge! Have a great day! xo ~angie

[@kimsikorski5691]

Just wanted to say you look great. Im not saying you look great for your age because you look no where your age and I don't like when people say that. You look even better and younger then you did when I started following you aprox 4 years ago. So with all that you do to keep staying younger looking it is working. God bless,💞

So my aunt has been a Chanel makeup artist for decades. One of the few still left working at a counter! She said they did a slight reformulation on it to make it better. She said a huge problem with the original is that it was just a little too thick and would get stuck in the bottle. She said she would have such a hard time squeezing it out of the samples! She also said the new one isn’t as matte as the original. Hope this helps! 🖤

I thought it was my imagination that it didn’t seem as matte as the original- thanks for the info!

This is my new HG foundation. It looks so beautiful on. It is luminous, but not shiny. It blurs the skin and looks like a soft focus filter. I swear I look 10 years younger with this on. Thanks for the recommendation. Love it!

I guessed correctly and yes, I think the new version looks better on you. It's less yellowish.

It seems like although the colour range has increased, all the new colours lean towards the pink end of the spectrum. For those of us with yellow/golden undertones, it doesn't look so good :(

Ok! Happy to see they are basically identical. I had already purchased a back - up of the old one but now I'm happy to see there are no major upheavals ;)

I have both and prefer the new one. It seems less perfumey, spreads better, more even and the color is more 'natural' (less 'chalky' - all relative).

[@ingridhirazumi8508]

What a relief! I am 74 years young and the Perfection Lumiere Velvet was the only foundation not to settle into my (many) wrinkles. I have pretty good skin for my age normal to dry. However the foundation does not work for me when I use sunscreen. So now I use a day cream with SPF 50 and the Laura Mercier Foundation Primer. Not to worry I am not using foundation every day so my skin still gets plenty of sun protection most of the time! Thanks again for making my day! Love Ingrid

Love this foundation so much. I love it even more with Murad invisiblur over of it instead of powder. Extra blurring without dryness plus more sunscreen! It's my only "must have" that I didn't get from Angie.

[@JK-ww8kw]

Thank you so much for your attention to detail in these reviews, ever peppered with humorous interludes. Our ages are similar, but the similarities in our skincare journeys end there. However I'm able to extrapolate your advice to my dry, sensitive, post-menopausal and estrogen-deprived skin, I'll miss the translation on occasion. This foundation is a huge miss for me. I live in a rural, cosmetics deprived zone and ventured to a Nordstrom Chanel counter to explore this -- your dedication to it so compelling. The lovely Chanel rep gave me two generous samples in different colors. The finish - during application -- is beautiful and natural. Immediately, it seems to find any dry patch I may have, it feels drying on my face, and the chemical sunscreen (boo!!) irritates my skin from minute one. I can't wait to wash my face. If I make my face more comfortable with a hyped up moisturizing routine, this foundation never melds to my skin (resulting in a different, dreaded polka dot pore look). I salute you for slogging through the foundation world with regularity, wearing things (repeatedly, with different techniques) through epic fails. I'm glad this is a big winner for you!

[@melanieckelly]

THANK YOU!! I’m so relieved. It’s the absolute best foundation and I’m so glad it will still be perfect.

I am so glad I found this video because I was in tears trying to locate the original formula -I needed someone to tell me what to use to replace it! Thank you so much!

Your hairstyle being different on both sides tricked my eyes a little bit because I saw one side quite different in the beginning, when you showed the longshot of your face. Then when zoomed in, they looked essentially the same. I'm glad they didn't change the formula too much because it really is gorgeous. It looks amazing on you. Thanks for the video!

Hi Angie! I originally tried the Chanel Perfection Lumiere Velvet because of your review and I’ve been wearing it ever since. I watch your videos all the time and I really value your opinion. I’m 41 and my skin is very similar to how you describe yours as being very combination and when I heard that they were discontinuing the lumiere velvet I totally panicked. I have tried so many other foundations and none of them come close to this one. Thank you so much for doing a review. You are awesome!

[@AnneLindsey1]

I’m so relieved to know there is not much change because I too love this foundation!

I guessed correctly and its a great improvement and color shade cooler undertone even with the same color 30 beige. You caught some interesting details in the ingredient list. I am going to try the new one. Even with my dry skin, the original looked fine, so looking forward to the new formula. Thanks so much Angie!😊

[@ThatFrenchTeacher95]

You nailed it! The first difference I noticed immediately is the the colour on your left side was darker/ashier than the right side (your left and right) not knowing which one was the original or the newer formula. And then you said it! You noticed yourself that the newer formula was warmer than the old formula. Either way though, you look fabulous!! Thank for comparing the two.

I do think the new shade looks a little better on you. It appears just slightly more rose and makes your skin look a little more alive, if that makes sense! Glad to hear that performance is the same. I have about half a bottle left of the old version and will use that before I run out to buy the new one. Hopefully I will get a tester and be able to determine my shade.

Hi Angie! I hope this question isn't too long and makes sense. I follow you religously so thank you for all of your help with my skincare! Ok, I do your anti-aging routine which I love but I have a problem with my makeup caking mid day and I keep switching things up to see which part of my routine isn't working. I have combo skin, am 54, and in the mornings start with a clean face, then 5 drops of Timeless Vit C Ferulic, then Ordinary Lactic Acid, then Timeless Coenzyme Q10, then moisturize and then Aus SPF 50 tinted Mineral sunscreen (which I love and it doesn't irritate my skin). I must use sunscreen bc I'm using the Curology Tretinoin at night etc. I have tried the primers you've recommended, putting it all on and waiting 20 min for it to dry etc. I work out early mornings and go to work, so that's the most time I really have to wait. I also use the Channel holy grail foundation (now the new one), and LOVE it. It's not heavy but covers like a dream so I don't want to switch foundations. Do you have ANY suggestions? I'm at a loss! It's so embarrasing to see my makeup doing that at work halfway through the day! Or maybe you could do a video on how to avoid foundation caking for those of us that need all of this product but maybe it's the application. HELP! Thank you!

[@ginni333]

Hope you dont mind me chiming in but you are putting on 6 products before putting on foundation. Its no wonder things are sliding around, I can only manage 1 product + foundation. What I do is put the other items on when Im just hanging out at home or at night. Good luck.

[@uhrrrrrangels]

-is also my dilemma! For me i have dry and dehydrated skin and im working in flights so i need a good layer of hydration. My foundation looks ok for the first few hours in flight but after 5 hours, the foundation looks like sitting on my skin and on the part near the bridge of my nose the foundation looks like its separating.

Another great, informative video, and you are gorgeous! At the beginning of the video, the original foundation, appearing to us on your right side as you look into the camera, that side looked almost a shade darker than new one, on our left.

Thanks Angie for doing this comparison, I bought a couple of backups of the original formula, but will eventually buy the new one. Thanks for the heads up on the slight color change. I will not assume I should buy the same color without testing it first.

[@floatinghear7]

You were awesome. Thanks for the research! I hardly wore makeup for a yr! I went shopping for this product today at Ulta and when I got home I realized the name of the bottle was different. I'm pretty sure I picked the right product the only difference is the new name and new formula that is slightly tweaked. I did get the sides wrong btw. The new formula looks a tiny more natural, I prefer the matte look! That's why I got the sides wrong. I thought new would be matte looking. Though in most of your clips both sides look the same! Must be the lighting!

I am thankful you mentioned you keep your backup ones in the frig. I ordered 5 backups of mine and have moved them to the frig. I'm glad they are virtually the same but it will be a while before I try out the new one. This is by far my favorite foundation. It does not look cakey or even like I'm wearing much foundation so when I heard it could be discontinued, I went and bought backups as well. :-)

[@geslinam9703]

After a few days of trying to make this foundation work for me...I was actually planning on returning it...I now see what everyone loves about it. I was color matched at Blue Mercury, and surprisingly I am in the rose beige family, I think mine is BR33. Usually I pick foundations that are more yellow. This foundation is different than any other I’ve ever used, but I can’t apply it the way you, or the instructions say. I have to moisturize, use sunscreen, use primer, and put my concealer on before the foundation - if I waited till after, the cream concealer I use wouldn’t stick or blend to this foundation finish, no matter what I did. So after the primer and putting on my concealer, which I use just to cover a few darksun spots and a broken blood vessel, I very quickly apply this foundation with a very slightly damp sponge. I do use a little setting powder after - but it truly does look great until I take it off. Smooth, natural, no settling into lines, and I need no touch ups during the day. The only negative is that with some moisturizers I’ve tried it with, it does oxidize slightly, and right after I apply, my face is slightly itchy, especially in the areas that I sometimes get peeling from my Tretinoin cream. But the itchy feeling goes away after a few minutes, and I’ve had no other irritationor any other issues. If I buy again, I will pick a lighter shade, due to the oxidation.

[@elian3084]

You should try the reformulated CHANEL Ultra Le Teint Ultrawear foundation, the one that comes in the frosted glass bottle. I'm oily and also swear by Velvet, but that one offers full coverage and perfected skin with a comfortable wear like I've never seen before.

[@cindyp5132]

I'm going to order 32 (Rose). To me, the biggest difference is the shade. I think originally 30 B was a light-medium beige which leaned a bit more cool-toned. Now it appears they dialed it back to lean a little more "peachy" neutral. And added 32 Beige Rose for more cool tones. The only thing that concerns me is this new trend of making light peach the cool factor which is just wrong. I hope they haven't done that but I expect Chanel to get it right, besides its probably 60% of their demographics in France. This video was so helpful in many ways but the swatches where priceless! Thanks!!

[@beckyc.5743]

I would also see creasing around my eyes and forehead so I was hoping the new formula would be more moisturizing. Oh well.
