CatriceTrue Skin Hydrating Foundation (010 | Cool Cashmere)

I loveeeeee ittttttt. Good coverage, easy to apply, color match, very light feeling on your skin.

I’ve tried dozens of foundations over the years, from high-end to drugstore, and this is the only one I keep coming back to. It gives me that rich, dewy glow I love—without needing to set it with powder—and actually feels good on my skin. It’s lightweight, hydrating, and makes my complexion look smooth and naturally radiant.One of the best things? It actually matches my very light skin. That’s incredibly hard to find, especially without going into luxury price tags. The undertone is just right—no weird orange cast, no ashy finish—just a seamless blend that looks like real skin.And the price? Honestly, it feels like a steal. It performs like a foundation three times the price. I stock up on it because I’m afraid of it ever being discontinued.Pros:✔️ Gorgeous dewy finish—no powder needed✔️ Hydrating, breathable, and lightweight✔️ One of the few true matches for fair/light skin✔️ Doesn’t cling to dry patches or settle into fine lines✔️ Super affordable for the qualityFinal Thoughts:If you want a foundation that’s hydrating, gives a beautiful skin-like glow, actually matches pale skin, and doesn’t break the bank—this is it. I’ve completely stopped searching. This is my holy grail.

The media could not be loaded. Color match was hard . It came a little lighter thank I wanted but I use a bronzer with it . The coverage is great . A little bit goes along way . Thick but not cakey For the money it’s worth it if you like full coverage .

Great price. Good coverage. Would not recommend for mature dry skin. It goes on very powdery and settles into wrinkles and has a drying drawing affect. At least for me. Has good pigmentation, goes on easily and did not have build up the coverage. For me, it how it sit on the skin after application that was the draw back.

I've been wearing this foundation for about a week now and I am really loving the formula and the way this wears throughout a long hot summer day. I do have oily skin but I stopped wearing "matte" foundations because I find that when you start sweating with a matte foundation on, it gets patchy and when I dab the sweat away, it looks like i just wiped off wet paint from my face and it doesn't blend out nicely afterwards. So I wanted to find a more hydrating/glowy foundation for the summers in hopes it'll look more natural as it wears throughout a hot day and this product is amazing. It's hydrating but not really "dewy" which is great because when I wear "dewy" foundations it feels heavy and sticky on my face. This feels so lightweight and comfortable to wear all day. Around 5-6 hours into my day is when my oily skin starts seeping through but when i blot the oils away or even sweat with a tissue, this foundation doesn't budge. It doesn't come off and leave this weird patchy spot. It just looks natural and smooth after blotting. This product paired with their poreless primer is the best combo ever. This is my new go to foundation. I just wish they had a warm or neutral shade that is lighter than the warm vanilla 015. It's a smidge darker than I would like but I am able to make it work.

I had high hopes for the Catrice True Skin Foundation, especially since I love the Catrice HD foundation and was looking for something a bit more skin-like and moisturizing. Unfortunately, this just didn’t live up to my expectations.I’ve given this foundation multiple chances because I really wanted to make it work. I tried it with different primers, without primer, over exfoliated skin, with and without moisturizer—you name it, I’ve tried it. No matter the method, the result was the same: patchy and unflattering.My skin is generally normal but tends to lean a bit dry in the winter, and this foundation clung to every dry spot, especially around my nose. It also settled into fine lines, making me look older than I am (I’m 37). On some days, it looked decent upon application, and I’d get my hopes up, thinking I finally cracked the code. But shortly after, it would break down and look patchy and uneven.I was hoping for a natural, skin-like finish with a touch of hydration, but it emphasized texture instead. If you have oily skin or maybe very smooth, perfectly prepped skin, this might work better for you. Sadly, it just didn’t suit my skin type or needs.I still love other products from Catrice, but this one was a miss for me. I’d recommend the Catrice HD foundation over this if you’re looking for something that looks more natural and doesn’t settle into fine lines.Hope this helps someone who’s on the fence about trying this!

Great color and similar to Elf glow at half the price.

I am sorely disappointed in this foundation. I'm trying to find something nice to say first. It has good coverage. There, that's it. It applies kind of like paint, quick drying paint. Work in very small areas and blend quickly, because you don't have much time to blend with this. I picked neutral ivory based on the shade chart, it looked like it had some color to it, and lightest to third lightest shade of a foundation is typical for me. Neutral Ivory is practically white. Like paper white. I had to try and warm my skin up with bronzer and a lot of blush, but you could still tell it was wrong. And hydrating? I don't know where that claim is coming from. I think if you have oily skin you might like this. I am normal to dry. This went on looking dry and looked dryer throughout the day. It was like it was sucking the moisture right out of my skin, even with a rich moisturizer and a moisturizing primer. It clung to any bit of texture or dry patches and looked awful. It aged me 10 years. I won't use it, that's for sure.
