True Match Hyaluron Tinted Balm
SUMMARY OF REVIEWS
L'Oreal Paris True Match Hyaluron Tinted Balm splits opinion sharply by skin type. Carmel Nicole (dry skin) calls it "perfection" and says it never emphasizes texture, while Robert Welsh says it looks "awful" and "like a rash" on textured skin. By Kristina Studio warns oily skin types to skip it, noting it feels heavy and looks streaky with a brush.
