I weighed up my options and even did a little ask on twitter, and eventually waddled down to boots (Why waddled? It was a Friday after a heavy day of snacking, that’s why), knowing full well that I wasn’t really just stepping into Boots to buy my mum a mothers day present.

If you’ve tried this foundation and it looks ashy on you, you’ve been matched to the wrong color!Īmy from Café Makeup and Karlasugar have swatched the colors on their skin, both are lighter than me, and I believe I am more olive/yellow than both of them.After my recent sift through my stash for my Makeup Collection/Storage video, I realised I was seriously lacking in the everyday lightweight foundation category, not to mention one that was right for my winter skin (I’m the palest I’ve ever been and loving it – except for the base matching struggle, obvs). I do recommend getting a few sample packets to test if you can (Nordstrom counters should have plenty now) and let it sit on the skin to see how it wears after a few minutes. If you’re slightly lighter than Shell but not quite Cameo, B20 Beige Tendre will be a good match. If you’re interested in Vitalumière Aqua and are exact match to Chanel Shell 30, I think your match will be B30 Beige Sable. Recommendations – If you’re still pining over Teint Innocence, BACK UP NOW! My local Nordstroms only carry two shades at the counters now, all others have been pulled and sent back to who-knows-where. If you liked TI you will most likely like VA. To sum up my thoughts: Vitalumière Aqua is thinner and has a semi-matte finish that’s less see thru, Teint Innocence is not as thin and more dewy with a slightly transparent finish. About a dozen women have e-mailed me with cries of despair that their favorite holy grail foundation is now gone. I know my sister has several back ups accumulated by now. I have purchased 3 back up bottles, although I don’t know the exact shelf life of an unopened bottle of foundation. Overall Thoughts – Chanel’s Vitalumière Aqua is a beautiful foundation, but it’s still no replacement for Teint Innocence which will always have my heart. I like to apply both with a sponge (just my personal preference). Neither are as sheer as a tinted moisturizer and both provide decent coverage.
Teint Innocence is more dewy and more moisturizing.Ĭoverage – Both have super natural but noticeable coverage, however I find the Teint Innocence more forgiving and a bit more transparent with a more natural look. I find that it needs to be blended with short quick strokes because it dries quickly and can darken in spots if not blended evenly. Also note, I mix the two Armani shades to get a custom-matched color (so many times I’m in between shades).įinish – Vitalumière Aqua has a quick setting formula with a slightly matte finish. I’ve swatched the shades I use below, note that while they are all different swatched heavily, the different formulas blend differently on the skin. The colors with BR have more pink, while the B shades have yellow undertones. I could have gone with either shade, but decided on the B20 Beige Tendre shade. For the Vitalumière Aqua, I tested B20 Beige Tendre and B30 Beige Sable. My best match right now is Chanel’s Lift Lumiere in Cendre 30 (which runs a bit lighter than Teint Innocence). After further testing, here are my thoughts:Ĭolor Selection – I am normally a Chanel Shell 30 in Teint Innocence but am slightly lighter in skin color, although not quite fair enough to be a Cameo 1.0.

After testing a few sample packets of the Vitalumière Aqua, I crowned it as one of my holy grail replacements, but did not have an update on my color selection since counters did not yet have the product in stock. I completed an extensive foundation review last month in search for a holy grail replacement (linked below at the bottom of this post).
Long-time readers know that Teint Innocence is my holy grail of foundations and much to my dismay, I discovered it was soon to be discontinued earlier this year. Chanel has officially released the new Vitalumière Aqua Ultra-Light Skin Perfecting Makeup SPF 15 ($45) in the US to replace their Teint Innocence Naturally Luminous Fluid Makeup SPF 12 ($47).
