Love it!
I have very light skin (almost translucent) and this is the only color and brand that matches my color. This foundation covers my blemishes very well.

Better than many expensive, high end foundations
I am 40 with combination skin that is sensitive and will break out with certain cosmetics. I am impressed with this foundation! I’ve been wearing and having fun with makeup for 30 years and have found many ride or die foundations only to have them be discontinued. When my favorite for 10+ years was discontinued last year, I tried even more foundations, mostly from luxury cosmetics brands. I have so many bottles of half used foundation— patchy, cakey, emphasizing texture, bad finish, not enough coverage, way too yellow, disappears off the face by hour 6, made me break out, and the list goes on. I tried this foundation after searching for top drugstore brands and knowing I like a matte finish. I was immediately impressed by the coverage. By hour 8, I was refreshed to see my makeup looked almost exactly like it did when I applied it. By hour 16, I knew we had found something good. I hoped it wouldn’t make me break out or cause a reaction on my sensitive skin, and after multiple wears over the past 3 weeks, it hasn’t! I’m thrilled. Give this foundation a chance if you like a matte finish and good, even coverage. Better than Dior in my humble opinion.

Big MESS! Sprayed all over my wall!
I was excited to try my newly purchased Infallible pro-matte foundation... oil -free, air light, and matte finish, with 24-hour wear time. What more could I ask for? But when I opened it and wanted to squeeze some onto my finger tip, it literally sprayed a huge splatter all over my white painted wall!! I IMMEDIATELY tried to wipe it off and it wouldn't budge! Then I proceeded to scrub with soap & water, over and over again for 20 minutes until it just about came off, along with a lot of the paint on my wall! What a mess! In my 50 years of wearing makeup, nothing like this has EVER happened to me before! Now I'm going to have to repaint my wall. I'm glad it didn't spray onto a favorite sweater. Threw it in the garbage - not going to use it again!

YUCK
My favorite all time foundation was Infallible Total Cover - Sun beige. It's been discontinued and I've tried several other products, but I hate them all. I'm older. Infallible Total Cover sun beige was perfect for me and no matter which Sun Beige product I've tried, They are either too heavy or they don't blend well into my skin. After more than 30 years, I am finally going to change brands.

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!

The Red Cap is Awful
I have been using color 110 and flawless with no complaints. I have ordered from several sites recently that advertise demi matte but send the nasty, thick, flat full matte which is the red top. It is horrible. Bring the original demi matte with black cap back. NO ONE WANTS DRY CAKE ON FACE!!

Why change a good thing? The red top formula is HORRIBLE. It's thick and cakey. Colors are not the same. BRING BACK THE BLACK TOP FORMULA....PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE. I'm saving a tube with the black top for my daughter's wedding in November. Trying to buy some on ebay.

The old formula was my go-to. I loved it, it offered great coverage and looked natural. The new formula is cakey and doesn’t blend well. I’ve switched brands it’s so bad. Please bring back the old formula!

HORRIBLE CHANGE THE FORMULA BACK
WHY DID YOU CHANGE THE FORMULA. Literally 99% of the reviews agree that the old formula was perfect. This used to be my holy grail foundation. Now I’m so annoyed and inconvenienced trying different foundations all over again. I keep checking my local cvs/ Walgreens in the hopes they have some left over bottles but :(((( PLEASE BRING BACK THE OLD FORMULA FOR DEMI-MATTE I BEG.

What a horrible site for a make-up company
I went to search for a foundation with neutral undertones and this site is absolutely horrible. There is so little information of the color and undertones it's a joke. This website needs some major love. I can't believe this is a site from a reputable company that specialize in makeup. What joke.

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!!!

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

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!

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!
