    I received this stick foundation for free, and I absolutely love it. I found this product to be very easy to use. Since I could either glide it on my face or use my fingers. I love how lightweight and easily bendable the foundation is. At first I was scared that the colour was wrong, but to my surprise its just the right shade.

    This foundation stick is SO. DANG. NICE. I have only used one other stick foundation in the past and found it too be too heavy/cakey on my skin, but this is the total opposite. This gives good coverage, but is like actual velvet on the skin. I swear it just melts into my skin and looks SO natural. It's long lasting on my dry skin as well. Love love love this!

    Thank you ChickAdvisor for giving me the opportunity to review this product. I have used a number of Lancome products in the past and find them to be of good quality. This foundation stick is no exception. It goes on smooth and provides adequate coverage without looking cakey. I will definitely use this product again.

    it's a shame I wasn't able to try the other shades for highlighting/contouring as I would have like to have seen how those all blended together.

    But based on my experience of using it as a foundation, I would say that it works well.

    I am judging this product by it's texture because I ended up picking the wrong color for foundation. The color doesn't work as highlighter for me either. So because my skin is extremely dry, I used an oil base moisturized then applied the foundation. It was very easy to apply using my fingers gently across my face. The coverage went on evenly and easily, while the foundation texture is light but thick enough to cover imperfections. Even though the foundation/highlighter color wasn't for me, I wore it while at home. It doesn't dry my skin, it gave me that dewy look. Finally, my advice to anyone whose going to buy this product should definitely test it out in person do not buy it online.

    I received this foundation stick from Chick Advisor in order to try and submit a review. I was skeptical at first since I have a pretty hard time finding any product that is dark enough for my skin tone that doesn't leave me looking ashen and way off - especially if it is a product that you'd be able to find in a drug store or someplace like WalMart.
    Anyway, how surprised was I when I tried this foundation and it blended almost perfectly?! It left me very impressed! I received the shade Suede and was even impressed when I opened the tube to see how dark it was! For someone who typically has to spend a great deal of time (and money) trying to find the correct shade of anything - this was a big deal.

    The product went on very smoothly and was quite matte (which was a plus as I have fairly oily skin) and stayed that way for the better part of the day.

    It applied well, lasted quite a long time and removed without a fuss. Lancôme just gained a fan.

    I received the Lancôme Teint Idole Ultra makeup stick for free from ChickAdvisor in order to test this product. I got the 320 Bisque W to use as a highlight. It goes on really smooth and creamy and blends well, even with just fingers. It's so lightweight that you don't feel like your wearing any makeup. It helped cover my dark circles under my eyes, which is great. I noticed that it does in fact slightly transfer, but much less than the average. My skin tends to be dry this time of year and I found that it made my few dry patches more noticeable.
    The biggest downside to this product is the higher than I'm used to price tag. Although I must say that a little goes a long way so perhaps it evens out.

    Pros: First off the packaging is very regal, it makes me feel a bit better about spending $50+ on this make up stick. Like it is so nice looking that I felt bad using it. The feel of the make up stick is regal as well. I loved the look. The shade sent me to was a bit off of my skin tone but I could still see how effective this was. The make up offered a high amount of coverage without looking caked on.

    Cons: I did break out near my mouth while using this but I do have that problem sometimes with makeup if it blocks pores. Also for the dollar amount of this make up stick I don't see how it would make sense to use it as a foundation stick. It would run out very fast. I understand using it as a spot concealer ect but as a foundation I dunno.

    Overall I really liked this product. I only used it for 3 days so I don't have a full breadth of experience using it but this far I enjoyed it. Would I buy it though? I would have to say no. For the price I feel like I could purchase excellent comparables. You are paying for the Name.

    I am so happy that I got to test out and review the #LancomeTIUstick. As someone who always uses a cream contour product for my everyday makeup routine, I knew that this would be an all star. I'll admit that I was a bit unimpressed by the packaging, as I wish the tube covered the entire stick of foundation. I'm always scared to nick the stick with the cap! All in all, the foundation felt very light on the skin, and extremely pigmented. The shade 420 BISQUE (N) is a really nice warm contour shade for my very light complexion. I can't speak too much to the oil-free claim, though it did stay in place all day long - definitely no smudging.

    I prefer the convenient stick to a pan of cream contour product that I need to pick up with a brush. I used my e.l.f. Studio Mineral Powder brush to blend in the product once it was on my face (See images above for my routine). No product was wasted on the brush. I would surely recommend this product to my friends, and I'm looking forward to seeing how the lighter shades work as foundation.

    I got this for free as part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club.

    I was lucky enough to try this product for free as part of the ChickAdvisor review club. I'll start off by saying that I wish I received this earlier so that I had more time to test it out.

    First impression: glides on smoothly, very creamy and a little goes a long way. I swatched it on my arm first to get my first impressions and it was on for about a minute before I decided to try to blend it. It took a little effort to get it blended and once it was, it stayed put. It was transfer resistant (as the packaging said). Great first impression.

    I finally got to use my full sized sample today and I'm glad I swatched it first. I had received my contouring shade so I knew to use just a small amount. It applied like butter and knowing that I didn't have too much time to blend, I blended right away.

    Wearing it over a primer and foundation, this lasted the whole (shorter) day and didn't budge. I have more oily skin so I'm impressed. There also wasn't any oxidization so the colour stayed true.

    The one thing I was concerned about was the sunscreen in it because I'm allergic to most makeup with sunscreen. I'll have to do an update as I won't know until tomorrow if my skin reacted to it.

    So far, love how it applies, blends and it's longevity. Unfortunately, because I received my contour colour and not a foundation colour, I can't comment on it's coverage. I also can't give it a 5 stars all-around only because I had a day to try this out.

    Thanks ChickAdvisor and Lancome for the opportunity to test this one out. I'm excited to try this a little longer in my routine.
