Foundation Swatches: Chanel, Clinique, La Bella Donna, Revlon

Today I am doing a swatch comparison of some of my more recent foundations. The variations in terms of color and undertone are really varied - which leads me to conclude that I need to swatch and test my foundations before buying a shade.

Compare Chanel Vitalumiere foundation with Chanel and Clinique
La Bella Donna Ultimate Pure Perfection in Nicoletta,  Revlon PhotoReady in 002 (Vanilla), Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua in BR20 (Beige Rose - Tendre), Clinique Acne Solutions in 02 (Fresh Ivory)

La Bella Donna, once blended in, matches my skin the best. Unfortunately, the texture is too thick for my taste. Chanel Vitalumiere would have been perfect in in a yellow undertone. Unfortunately, I got the Beige Rose one (because I am cheap and bought the only available one for a discount). Clinique Acne Solutions Fundation is my go-to under foundation spot treatment and concealer. As for the Revlon PhotoReady, I've recently written about it and won't be ready to use it until the Winter.

    1. I don't think Chanel Vitalumiere exactly lives up to its hype. It's a good foundation, but I doubt I would pay that price for it again.
