Chanel Vita Lumiere Aqua

So I was in the mall last weekend and wanted to pick up another sample of the Pro Lumiere because I'm still kind of on the fence about it.  I like how it looks but I'm not sure if I'm ready to commit yet.  I was talking to the Sales Girl and she was telling me that Chanel is going to be doing away with Pro Lumiere in September to reformulate it and fix all the issues people have with it.  Good news on that front because I'd be sold on it if it would stay on my face.  On that note I decided to ask for samples of the Matte Lumiere and Vita Lumiere Aqua.  I've heard good things about Vita Lumiere Aqua but wasn't sure on specifics.  The Sales assistant went through the whole deal where they ask you about your skin and what kind of coverage you're looking for (oily and full coverage) and she determined that Matte Lumiere is the one for me but gave me samples of the Vita Lumiere which is supposed to be a fairly sheer coverage.  I left without purchasing either because I wanted to test them out at home before taking the plunge and I can say I'm very happy I did.  I have yet to try the Matte Lumiere because I love the Vita Lumiere Aqua so much!  It gives flawless coverage, keeps my oily skin in check, looks natural, doesn't transfer, and is long wearing.  I wore it for about 12 hours in 85° today and still had to wash my face twice with my Clarisonic to get it off.

Dear Chanel Vita Lumiere,
Would you like to permanently join my makeup collection as my holy grail foundation?

I think that was a yes!
