Snob or Scam? Lancôme Oscillation Power Foundation

Ôscillation Power foundation, Lancôme's latest vibrating makeup, is self touted do-it-all foundation.  I bought into the vibrating mascara last year but realized after 3 uses that the vibration actually made the mascara dry.  Granted, this has SPF 21-- among the highest on the market but does a vibrating applicator make it a smoother more natural finish?

The applicator delivers 7,000 micro-oscillations per minute, which is said to help spread the powder evenly across your skin and buff it down to a matte finish.  I will have to try this out to see if it delivers as promised.  Have you tried this?  What do you think?  Lancome 'Oscillation Powerfoundation' Micro-Vibrating. Polishing. Mineral Make-up. SPF 21 here. $48

  • it seems like they're just trying to apply the same technology/marketing to a different product. except, i don't see why it would be necessary for your foundation to apply 7000 times a second. for mascara it makes sense, to cover all lashes and build volume (though i actually found the vibrating wand to be less effective than my usual wiggle/blink technique...)

  • I bought it and sent it back - very poor coverage...never got enough powder on the oscillating puff to make a difference...
