I was so excited to try the brand new Givenchy Teint Couture Balm because the Teint Couture Long Wear Fluid Foundation is one of my regular faves. It’s all about lit within skin and you know how I love that! This new addition to the line up is what is being dubbed a bare skin foundation and promises “less coverage than a foundation, more correction than a BB cream and as much comfort as a skincare balm”. Let’s have a look!

I am really liking this. I am struggling a teensy bit because my sample is a tad on the dark side for me and I love that lighter, brighter look, but it does have an adaptive quality that means I can definitely make it work for my skin.

I am really impressed with how natural this looks and what a good job it does on my pores. They definitely appear much less prominent on the left side of the photo. Yay!
