There seems to be a bit of a thing for longwear foundation launches at the moment, and I have a handful of those that I’m testing on rotation. But I wanted to kick off this run of reviews with Dior’s new Diorskin Forever Perfect Mousse. While the beauty industry is saturated with long-lasting foundations promising flawless coverage and all-day wear, Dior’s entry into the mousse foundation arena presents a compelling case for itself. This review will delve into the specifics of the Dior Forever Perfect Mousse foundation, examining its performance, texture, longevity, and overall value, comparing it to other Dior foundations and addressing common concerns surrounding shade ranges and application techniques.
First Impressions and Texture:
Unlike many long-wear foundations that lean towards a liquid or cream formula, the Dior Forever Perfect Mousse boasts a unique mousse-like texture. This airy, whipped consistency is surprisingly lightweight, defying the typical heaviness associated with long-lasting foundations. Application is a dream. The mousse blends seamlessly into the skin, leaving a natural, almost undetectable finish. It doesn't feel cakey or mask-like, even with buildable coverage. This is a significant point of difference compared to some other long-wear options that can feel heavy and suffocating on the skin. The initial application feels incredibly soft and comfortable, a stark contrast to the often-drying effect of many long-lasting formulas.
Coverage and Finish:
The Dior Forever Perfect Mousse offers medium-to-full buildable coverage. One layer provides a beautiful, even complexion, effectively minimizing the appearance of pores and blemishes. Building up the coverage is easy without creating a mask-like effect. The finish is a soft matte, avoiding the overly powdery look that some matte foundations can produce. It's a natural, refined matte, rather than a flat, lifeless one. This makes it suitable for a range of skin types, even those with slightly drier skin, as it doesn't emphasize dryness or cling to patches of dehydration. For those with oily skin, this foundation will control shine effectively without looking overly dry or flat.
Longevity and Wear:
The "Forever" in the name is certainly not a misnomer. True to its promise, this foundation provides exceptional longevity. Throughout a long workday, even with a slightly oily T-zone, the foundation held up beautifully. There was minimal fading or creasing, and the overall look remained fresh and even. While touch-ups might be necessary for individuals with exceedingly oily skin, for most, this foundation provides impressive all-day wear without significant touch-ups. This makes it an ideal choice for busy days or special occasions where flawless makeup is essential.
Shade Range and Selection (Dior Foundation Shades Explained):
Dior's shade range has improved significantly in recent years, and the Dior Forever Perfect Mousse is no exception. While the exact number of shades may vary depending on retailer and region (check Dior Forever foundation John Lewis for UK availability and shade selection), the range is generally considered comprehensive. Finding a suitable match is relatively straightforward, though it's always advisable to test shades in person before purchasing. The Dior foundation shades explained generally follow a naming convention combining a number and letter combination to indicate undertone and depth. Consult the Dior Forever foundation color chart available online or in-store for a visual representation of the shades. This will help in determining the ideal shade for your skin tone.
