Goodbye Chanel ProLumiere Foundation

Word on the beauty blogs circuit is that Chanel Prolumiere foundation is retiring. Yes, farewell! Why do cosmetic companies discontinue fabulous products to only replace them with not so fabulous products? Chanel Prolumiere is my go-to foundation for when my skin is not so fabulous. Its replacement Perfection LumiereE Long-Wear Flawless Fluid Makeup SPF10 will be in stores in October 2011. Read last year's review here!
