THE VERDICT:

Really, if brands want to test their waterproof formulas before releasing them to the market, they should do so in the Philippines during summer! Yesterday, it was 35 degrees; the weather was muggy, the sun shone brightly, and air was thin; Yesterday, I walked the whole day around BGC, running business and personal errands and I was sweating non-stop and felt like melting, but when I got the chance to check myself in the mirror, lo and behold, my makeup was intact; there was a bit of oil on my nose and beads of sweat on my forehead, but my makeup looked totally fine, all thanks to this new L'Oreal line called Infallible; it's makeup that's formulated for summer!

L'OREAL INFALLIBLE PRO-MATTE 16 HR. POWDER AND INFALLIBLE MAKEUP SPRAY

Infallible is a new makeup series that promises long- lasting makeup wear. The spray has a mild, oil- free formula that helps makeup resist fading, creasing and caking, and the powder promises to stay matte and for longer for up to 16 hours.

The powder comes in about 4 or 5 shades and thankfully, they are generally yellow- toned. 200 Natural Beige suits medium to morena skin tones better.

Ingredients

The product comes in a decent acrylic packaging; it's nice that the sponge has a separate compartment.

The powder feels smooth, a bit creamy and soft, but never heavy; I believe it will suit pretty much a variety of skin types. 

Spray Ingredients

The spray feels just like water with a bit of scent to it, but it's not annoying or anything; the atomizer delivers a fine mist and I like that it's quite controllable, allowing me to customize my usage further.

Product says it's Pro-Matte, but finish is soft matte; there's none of that old school, hard core flat matte; it's great both as a standalone powder or as a setting powder as it feels light on the skin, but if you have grave discolorations, use with concealer/corrector/foundation.

Now I've used everything in this photo. After walking around for hours in a sauna of a city called BGC, my makeup still looked really good and I was even able to participate in a photo shoot come evening! That's like a total of 9 hours!

I think the difference maker here is the setting spray; I've tested it with my non- Infallible makeups and it's either their coverage lasted longer or my oilies were kept at bay longer. Props to the powder also because it makes me stay oil- free for an additional one or two hours, depending on the temperature. Divided, they work well, but together, you've got a makeup powerhouse that will just shrug off this insane heat and I'm not saying this because I got the products for free, but because they really work! Both products are great for pro and regular use, and ideal for combination oily/normal and oily skin types. I will stock up on the spray soon when it's finally back in stock!
