Better Together: Lancôme Teint Idole Foundation and Oil-in-Gel Cleanser

We all want our makeup to help us achieve flawless, imperfection-free skin. That’s why we’re constantly searching for the best foundations on the market and practicing the best application methods for our base products. But a common mistake is assuming an even, smooth complexion starts with makeup, when it really starts with your skin care. It’s important to have not only a great foundation in your stash, but also a top-rated cleanser — and Lancôme has a solution for both. 

The Lancôme Teint Idole Ultra 24H Long Wear Foundation is one of the best longwear foundations on the market. With 50 medium- to full-coverage shades available, it’s earned a spot in many beauty lovers’ makeup routines, including our editors. It offers long-lasting, velvety-smooth coverage for hours after application without the risk of transferring, melting or smudging. Thanks to its oil-free liquid formula, even those with oily skin can benefit from its skin-blurring effects. When it comes time to remove it after a long day of wear, look no further than the Lancôme Absolue Nurturing & Brightening Oil-in-Gel Cleanser with Grand Rose Extracts to get the job done. 

The unique transforming oil, gel and milky cleanser melts away makeup with ease. It contains a rich blend of oils that simultaneously lift away dirt and reveal refreshed skin. As you work it into your complexion, you can visibly see even waterproof makeup products wipe away. What’s left behind is silky, hydrated skin that feels soft to the touch — and ready for your next round of makeup application.

When you treat your skin on both ends of your beauty routine — during the skin-care phase and the makeup phase — you’ll be able to see a real difference in your complexion.
