The perfect foundation is a game-changer, but finding it? That's akin to tracking down The One. Or at least it was, until Lancôme made a magical foundation-mixing machine available to the public for the most bespoke coverage money can buy.
The brand's Le Teint Particulier Custom Foundation offering takes the "second skin" effect to a whole new level by first scanning your skin with an innovative device designed for colour accuracy. Then, concocting a one-of-a-kind foundation with customized coverage, finish, and level of hydration based on the readings. No matter what your foundation prescription is, the formula is ultra-light, oil-and-fragrance free, and has buildable, satin-finish coverage.
The technology has already been rolled out in the US, with beauty lovers flocking for the mixed-right-before-your-eyes experience. The cherry on top? Walking away with a gorgeous white bottled labeled with your name and foundation ID, which you can reference to have your formula recreated. In the US it doesn't come cheap, coming in at an eye watering $80, with the UK price expected to be around £100. But if you're committed to the cause—that being a flawless, seemingly-born-with-it glow—and can appreciate apothecary-like treatment, it may just be worth it.
