CatriceTrue Skin Hydrating Foundation (001 | Neutral Fair)

I’ve tried dozens of foundations over the years, from high-end to drugstore, and this is the only one I keep coming back to. It gives me that rich, dewy glow I love—without needing to set it with powder—and actually feels good on my skin. It’s lightweight, hydrating, and makes my complexion look smooth and naturally radiant.One of the best things? It actually matches my very light skin. That’s incredibly hard to find, especially without going into luxury price tags. The undertone is just right—no weird orange cast, no ashy finish—just a seamless blend that looks like real skin.And the price? Honestly, it feels like a steal. It performs like a foundation three times the price. I stock up on it because I’m afraid of it ever being discontinued.Pros:✔️ Gorgeous dewy finish—no powder needed✔️ Hydrating, breathable, and lightweight✔️ One of the few true matches for fair/light skin✔️ Doesn’t cling to dry patches or settle into fine lines✔️ Super affordable for the qualityFinal Thoughts:If you want a foundation that’s hydrating, gives a beautiful skin-like glow, actually matches pale skin, and doesn’t break the bank—this is it. I’ve completely stopped searching. This is my holy grail.

Alta cobertura, se debe difuminar bien y rápido.Su textura es un poco pesada pero es perfecta para maquillajes que buscan larga duración.

Not a fan but I LOVE the concealer so I’ll just continue purchasing that instead

I have very dry skin so this wasn’t great for me but love Catrice under eye.

Fast shipping, love this product

I had high hopes for the Catrice True Skin Foundation, especially since I love the Catrice HD foundation and was looking for something a bit more skin-like and moisturizing. Unfortunately, this just didn’t live up to my expectations.I’ve given this foundation multiple chances because I really wanted to make it work. I tried it with different primers, without primer, over exfoliated skin, with and without moisturizer—you name it, I’ve tried it. No matter the method, the result was the same: patchy and unflattering.My skin is generally normal but tends to lean a bit dry in the winter, and this foundation clung to every dry spot, especially around my nose. It also settled into fine lines, making me look older than I am (I’m 37). On some days, it looked decent upon application, and I’d get my hopes up, thinking I finally cracked the code. But shortly after, it would break down and look patchy and uneven.I was hoping for a natural, skin-like finish with a touch of hydration, but it emphasized texture instead. If you have oily skin or maybe very smooth, perfectly prepped skin, this might work better for you. Sadly, it just didn’t suit my skin type or needs.I still love other products from Catrice, but this one was a miss for me. I’d recommend the Catrice HD foundation over this if you’re looking for something that looks more natural and doesn’t settle into fine lines.Hope this helps someone who’s on the fence about trying this!

Great color and similar to Elf glow at half the price.

I like & use Catrice products. I have the concealer in this line in Cool Cashmere and it is a little light but it it looks nice on and applies very nicely. I wanted to try the foundation that goes with it but I knew the Cool Cashmere would be too light for my entire face and I do have pink in my skin so I thought the Cool Rose would be a good choice. I was SO EXCITED when I got it today and was going to do my makeup using it. I pumped out some & it was NOT the color in the picture. I thought, well maybe it will blend & look different on. IT DIDN'T. It looked like I smeared pumpkin filling all over my face. It was ORANGE. It looked like I put a cheap orange "bronzer" on all over. I took it all off & tried using less. No, it was STILL orange & TOO dark. I was SO dissappointed! It felt a thicker consistency than I thought it would be also.I am not sure if a more fair shade closer to the Cool Cashmere might work but then it might be too light. I was really sad it didn't work for me, but that happens sometimes. I still do really like Catrice products and enjoy the ones I do use.
