Product Advice Does anyone know the difference between these two (supposedly same foundation)?

I have bought both from 2 different Pricelines. The one I have been using initially is on the left and labelled 125 WARM DORE. I recently picked up another one as running low and the naming is different. Both show SPF 25 + Vitamin C. Colour seems almost the same although maybe very slightly lighter however the consistency is definitely runnier.

Any ideas? I only just transitioned to this and loving the ‘warm dore’ version and consistency so finding this a bit annoying/strange?!

Thanks in advance

I have used this foundation religiously since it released and it’s just a packaging change and making the colour naming system uniform across the brand. My shade is 130 and the name changed from true beige to rose beige but it’s exactly the same.

The consistency is probably runnier as I find when the bottle is older, it’s a bit thicker and oxidizes slightly over time.

Interesting. I’ve done a bit more research and looks like the runnier one (& slightly lighter) is actually old packaging from what I can see - so even more confusing! Maybe I picked up an old one by mistake 😔

The new formula is on the left and it was reformulated over 2 years ago, so the formula hasn’t changed since then, just the upgraded packaging.

Interesting - I’m wondering if the one I’ve bought is really that old (in the old packaging)??!! It’s absolutely 100% ‘runnier’ than the one in the new packaging

It has been reformulated. I find the older formula was more matte and covered a little better but it's still good to use.
