Amazed
As someone with terrible acne this is a true full coverage foundation. I get so many compliments on my make up “it’s like your face has a filter on it” 100 % recommend this to anyone has red marks discoloration or acne!
Would love to know what everyone is pairing this with!

Horrible new formula
It use to be light finish and the new version is way to think and shows. Miss the old version.

Very good
If you like NARS soft matte, you’ll love this. You do have to properly prep with it. The only thing that I don’t like is that there is no clear numbering with undertone, so you have to go in blindly and HOPE that the undertone sets the way you want

Favorite Foundation
This is my favorite foundation! Cover my imperfections and gives me an airbrushed look! I keep trying other foundations but have never found one I like more than this one!

Bring back the old formula.. the new one is awful
Please bring back the old formula (when it was Demi matte with a black cap). This new current formula is awful. It really emphasizes pores and fine lines and creates/ emphasizes dry patches. It also wears off in some spots throughout the day and the shade I’ve been using for years is starting to make me look orange and changed throughout the day. It’s so disappointing that a great product I was loyal to has become one of the worst I’ve used. I would rather have the price go up with inflation than the quality go down.

Please do not discontinue this. It’s so hard to find now. Not everyone can wear glowy foundation. There are very limited options for us oily girls. ESPECIALLY drug store! Please leave this

Old formula was the best
I have used Infalliable pro-matte for years and loved it, until now. The new formula makes your face look cakey and doesn’t have the same finish as the old one. I couldn’t even wear it out, it looked so bad. The old formula looked amazing in pictures every time! Please bring back the old formula.

NEW formula is HORRIBLE!
Based on reviews of the new formula, I was skeptical to try it. I was still able to get my hands on the old formula in certain stores until last month. The new formula is thicker and not blendable at all. Also, the shade 104 is not the same and has a more cool undertone. Finally, the new formula breaks me out where as the old one didnt. PLS BRING BACK THE OLD FORMULA!!!

Red cap formula is awful
I had been wearing this foundation for years until the formula was switched and now has a red cap. The new formula is truly the worst foundation I have every used. It is patchy, the pigment is absolutely horrible, and dries out your skin. Please bring back the old formula!!!

Last all day for me I didn't need touch ups. My go-to summer makeup. Along with Infallible Fresh Wear too. Worth the hype for me.

Go Red Cap! Go Red Cap!
I've never used the "Black" cap foundation before so I cannot speak on it, however, the "Red Cap" formula is the BOMB!! I've searched high and low for a perfect matte foundation that doesn't require a small loan just to purchase it. I've tried everything from MAC to Maybelleine and this "Red Cap" Pro Matte formula is by far the absolute BEST foundation I've EVER used in my ENTIRE 54 years on this earth.

New Formula is Horrible!
The new Pro-Matte Foundation with the RED cap is horrible!! I've been using 102 Shell Beige for years and I have been extremely satisfied. But the new formula is now thick, pasty and definitely not suited for oily skin. Moreover, the color is totally different!!! I'm not the only one complaining about this. Can they review the formula and change it back to what it was?

I have bought 7 of these but no colors match
It is so frustrating that Loreal doesn't provide any hints on these shades. Are they Neutral? Cool? Warm? Level 1? 2? 2.5? In the packaging you cannot see the color. I have begun to think that this is deliberate to get customers to buy multiple shades. In the 24 Hour Infallible Fresh foundation I am Rose Vanilla but can not find one comparable in the Matte.

WHY DID YOU CHANGE THE FORMULA
So so sad that the formula was changed. This used to be the best makeup ever, me and all my friends have worn it for years and wouldn’t switch. Now we’re left buying up old bottles on eBay and poshmark because we’re that desperate to not have to change to the new formula. Please bring the old demi matte back! PS if you order this from any site they will send you the new fully matte formula with the red cap

Ran out of this foundation (black cap) and bought the new one (red cap) and found it to be awful! The shade is not the same as the black cap series and new formula is awful!! Caked on my face and creases everywhere even having used a primer. Please change back to the old formula!!!!

Worst foundation ever!!
You're original formula was EPIC!! It applied smoothly, flawlessly. I have oily skin and a pore issue. When I wore your old foundation my skin looked like porcelain!! I train horses in TEXAS
HEAT!! When I'm in a horse show, I used your foundation! (Original) and my skin never looked better!! No oily T zone, my pores looked amazing and the foundation NEVER smeared, ran NOTHING!! I've been through NUMEROUS foundations trying to find a new one and nothing compares to your original formula!! Get rid of this thick, clay formula!! Its sucks the biggest donkey balls ever!!!

New formula is horrible
The new formula is horrible!! I new the moment I would put on my makeup it was horrible and I couldn’t pinpoint as to why it wasn’t the same smooth finish I always had until I noticed the difference and it was no longer demi matte. I’m honestly disappointed that the formula has changed after years of purchasing. The formula leaves you’re face looking patchy, dry and is hard to blend with a brush or a beauty blender.

Hate the news formula
Yikes the new formula is terrible. It used to go on so smooth, with light coverage and wasn’t dewy at all. And I know you keep suggesting to everyone to wear the 24 hour fresh wear but it’s certainly not even close to the same and doesn’t have the qualities I liked in the original formula of the pro matte. Maybe listen to your customers because no one wants this new formula. This stuff used to never be in stock at the stores and now no one is touching it.

*Used* to be my all time favorite
Why, L'oreal?! Why did you change the formula? This used to be the best foundation I've ever tried and I used it for years. I have oily, pigmented, textured skin and this is the only foundation I've ever used that made my skin look smooth and air brushed, while lasting alllll day and feeling lightweight. It was perfection!! I've gotten so many compliments on my skin while using it. I got the new red bottle and wow, it is way too matte, almost chalky looking. Please bring back the old formula. I'm so sad that I have to go on a hunt and spend a bunch more money trying to find a new foundation.

New Formula Disappointment
The old black cap formula was my go to affordable drugstore foundation. I was so disappointed in the new red cap formula. The shades are completely different and
it just doesn't wear like the original. Please, please bring back the old formula. It's been a couple months since I last used the original and I'm still trying to find another foundation that compares. :(

New formula is terrible
I used the original, black cap formula for years. I assumed the red cap was just a packaging change but it is not. The finish is different, the colors are different, it feels heavy and looks cakey. Very disappointed. I have now been through three different attempts at finding a new foundation and have been disappointed each time. Not pleased that they didn't say it was formula change (red cap was waste #1) and that I am now on the hunt for anything that will work (waste #2 and 3). Please bring back the old formula!!

Not the same. Beware of the new product!
Glad I’m not the only one that noticed the HUGE difference in the formula!! Super dissatisfied that it changed when they went to the red packaging. Believe what everyone says, the new packaging is completely different than the black, Demi-matte. The shades are different and the foundation is thick and doesn’t stay matte for me like the old formula. I used this for over 10 years it was my go to and the perfect shade ( I used 102/Shell Beige). Very depressing I now have to find another foundation that will not live up to Infallible’s old formula I’m sure. Just beware of this when buying!

Old Formula
I am very sad that the formula was changed. I ran out of my last bit that I had in the all black packaging. Went to purchase a new one with the new packaging and the color is completely different. I am in shade 103 and this new formula makes me look extremely ORANGE!

Change is not always good
This best foundation I have ever used is the L’Oreal Infallible Pro-Matte DEMI-MATTE foundation with the black cap. I have used it for years. It goes on smoothly, it is not thick or heavy, it does not settle into wrinkles or pores, and it doesn’t make your face shiny. It looks natural on and is as close to not wearing make-up as you can come. It covers up my freckles and evens out my skin tones without looking or feeling thick or cake.
The last time I bought this foundation it had a red cap, which I assumed was just a packaging change. Wrong. The formula in the red cap package is completely different. The color is the same, but it’s much thicker, it does not go on smoothly or evenly, and worst of all it accentuates every.single.pore.and.wrinkle. It is the opposite of everything I appreciated about the original.
It is SO hard to find the perfect foundation, and I am seriously let down that I have to again go in search of a new foundation when I had the perfect product. When you find a product you love, you stick with it. L’Oreal doesn’t reciprocate that loyalty.

BRING THE BLACK CAP DEMI MATTE BACK
I agree with everyone's comments here. The red cap full matte formula is ABSOLUTLY HORRIBLE. The black cap DEMI-MATTE formula was my absolute favorite for years. I am now looking for another brand that sells a foundation similar to that formula.

New formula is bad
I used to love this foundation so much with the black cap and old packaging that said semi matte. This new one with a red cap that just says matte is so drying I had to take it off my face and redo my makeup. Please switch back to the old formula! I love and use the L’Oréal foundations all the time so this one with a new formula is really disappointing.
