Tom Ford Traceless Perfecting Foundation Cream
Tom Ford Traceless Foundation Alabaster
Guerlain Lingerie de Peau Beige Clair

and today I purchased Dolce and Gabbana Perfect Reveal Lift in Classic 60 , but I see on the bottom of the bottle and the box it says EXP .MR/16 That sounds to me like it expires March 2016! So back it goes tomorrow to check what that means and if it has really expired.

That's the date of expiration so I'm told... but others say the foundation will
have a shelf life of 1 year or more from that date..

If this came from SFA, I'd want a bottle from a newer shipment, IYKWIM...

It came from SFA, and I do want a new shipment! it is definitely going back.

I guess S/a's don't think we look at these things, but selling fragrance on eBay has made me aware of batch codes. I've never checked one on a foundation before. Glad I did.:D

It should go back & if there isn't a "fresh one with a more forward
expiration date", I'd wait for the next shipment or beauty event.

More new inventory always comes in for a beauty event..
 
Update: I returned the D&G with no problem. I had apparently bought the last one in my color, and she tried to sell me another formulation. But I rather liked the one I had tried, and didn't feel like trying the two other blends, so I said no and got m credit. New supplies are arriving in April, and I'll buy it then, if another brand has not caught my fancy in the meanwhile.

I'd wait til April if this is what you want & like...
 
I am getting that too in 410 ! It withstood the hot and humid Malaysian weather and Korean cold winter too!



Anyway here is my list

MAC Studio Fix Stick in NC42

Bobbi Brown Stick in Honey

Nars in Barcelona


My daughter is 410 too. I have also been experimenting with Lancome's Teint Miracle in 500 and Renergie Lift in 460 as well. I think NARS changed their formula or maybe I'm just getting older because my favorite foundations have been settling into my laugh lines.
 
Lancome Teint Idole Ultra 24H -- 220C
Tom Ford Traceless Perfecting foundation -- Cream
Hourglass Immaculate Liquid Powder foundation -- Natural
Nars Velvet Matte Skin Tint -- Finland (but, it's a tad too yellow on me)
Cle de Peau Radiant Fluid Foundation in O10
Cole de Peau Cream Foundation in O10

And, I just bought the new Burberry Cashmere Foundation in No. 12 (winter skin), and No. 20 for summer skin. There's not a huge difference between the two colors, though.
