Is the best foundation I ever have. Is soft to apply and the wrinkles disappear with the effect of the luminiscent. I don't know why they discontinued it. I only can get it in some sites at the internet.

Good points for the LOreal Translucide Foundation, really nice finish, smooth looking skin. Bad points, erm..... none really!! ..gone out of production???. I like it.

This product is absolutely fab! I have tried a lot of foundations on my skin but including MAC and Georgio Armani but Translucide definitely gives a healthy looking glow and no-one can even tell that you have make-up on! I have have used it for 2 years and because it has been discontinued, I am lost as to what to use!

I've used this foundation now for over a year. After buying tons of other foundations, this was the only one that I found to be exactly what I was looking for.
L'Oreal Translucide Foundation hides all blemishes and scars, and it leaves you with a healthy looking glow. Bad news though - I went to get some yesterday and they have discontinued it!!!! I'm gutted!! It took me forever to find the right foundation for me, so if anyone knows if there's anywhere I can buy it still, please let me know.

P.S. I've tried Superdrug and Boots - no joy!

I have been looking for the perfect foundation now for about a year or so and I thought I'd give L'Oreal Translucide Foundation a go after hearing much raves on the TV and Internet reviews. I went to Boots and tested their several different samples of L'Oreal foundations and picked the one nearest to my skin tone (pale/ivory), the other foundations L'Oreal had to offer were too dark. This happened to be the Translucide Soft Ivory. The texture was too thick to blend properly, it tended to clog around my nose, the sides of my face and on my chin. I hoped that after applying it a few times, I might get the hang of blending it properly but alas, that was not the case. After persisting for just over a week I gave up and went back to using what was left of my Max Factors Lasting Performance (which I didn't like but is still better than this). The colour is acceptable although a little on the orange side. And after only 1-2 hours of wearing this L'Oreal foundation, my face felt wet and sticky like I needed to keep blotting it all the time, very uncomfortable.

I have bought and used L'Oreal Translucide foundation for over 5 years. I love it, but my skin is becoming oily and I may have to find a new product that will stay on my skin. I love the way this foundation covers and makes my skin look. I just wish they did it in an oil free formula.

Loreal Translucide foundation contains "micro powders" to brighten skin tone and vitamin C. It has a thick texture which doesn't blend very well and I found that the lightest shade was a little bit too orange. The coverage is fine as long as you do not have many blemishes.
However it does give quite a nice result, skin tone is evened out, it lasts all day and it does have a nice orange scent.

I have just purchased the L'Oreal Translucide Foundation. I had heard good reviews about L'Oreal foundations and thought I'd give it a go. I must agree, I also find this foundation extremely hard to blend because of it's thick texture. It doesn't give much for coverage, and the lightest shade is a little too orange for me. It will do until I can find a better foundation.
