Hourglass Immaculate Liquid Powder Foundation Swatches + Review

November 24, 2015

Press Sample/Affiliate Links

The search for the most mattifying foundation of them all is endless. Who would have thought the road would be so long? Maybe I should have known, since my skin is so incredibly oily in my t-zone. Recently I got the chance to try out the Hourglass Immaculate Liquid Powder Foundation Mattifying Oil Free ($55.00 // Sephora). Could this be it? Could this be the end of the road?

Hourglass Immaculate Foundation review photos

Hourglass Immaculate is available in 16 shades and is touted as the “breakthrough liquid to powder formula that absorbs oil, camouflages imperfections and delivers a long-lasting velvet matte finish without the need for touch-ups”.

How to wear it. Unless you need very little coverage the beautyblender is not your friend for this one. I require at the very least a medium coverage foundation so I’ve found with Immaculate it’s best to apply it by pressing product into my face with my fingers and blending lightly. Then I use my flat kabuki brush to buff it all in and blend. The end result is flawless and it covers all the things I need it to.

As for the mattifying/oil-free claims I will say that while it doesn’t keep my oil/shine free all day long it does last longer than other foundations in my stash. I was impressed that after I blotted the oily areas with blotting papers I didn’t need to apply any kind of powder to hide shine. Blot and go.

What is your favorite foundation? I listed my Top 10 Foundations on this post and after fully testing this product I can definitively say I would add Hourglass Immaculate into that list.

The Hourglass Immaculate Liquid Powder Foundation Mattifying Oil Free retails for $55.00 and is available at Sephora and hourglass.com.

    I enjoyed your review on this Hourglass product…I am not a big fan of matte but I will consider trying it out at the department or Sephora for the Summer to control sweat/melting affect on my dry skin! Right now I am using Maybelline True Fit Foundation in Soft Honey with also great for dry skin during the Fall/Winter months!

    I have oily skin, but right now I’m loving radiant or illuminating foundations. I’m sure once summer rolls around again, I’ll be on the hunt for the perfect matte foundation. I’ll have to try this one!

    I love this foundation and they have the perfect match for my yellow tones. I haven’t repurchased after my sample ran out because of foundation overload lol.

    I had tried a sample of this but I think it’s better for your skin than my drier skin. It must be great though to make your future top 10 list.

    I can’t remember the exact name of the foundation that was IT for me, but it was by Josie Maran. This sounds pretty amazing, as well! And I like the bottle. πŸ™‚

    I have found these work reasonably well on some of my oilier clients! I’m glad the shade range has become more expensive over time, too.

    Because I have such dry skin, I usually stay away from mattifying foundations. I just got a new Bobbi Brown Foundation that I didn’t intend to buy but turned out to be perfect for me. You never know
