I bought every Foundation that's sold in store and online at Sephora so you don't have to and today we're testing them out back to back starting from least expensive to most expensive so if you want to see what Foundation is going to be best for you then keep watching okay to kick things off and it's probably not going to be a surprise if you watched any of my previous hauls on my channel like my blush one my bronzer one my highlighter one we always start out with a Sephora brand product they happen to be the most affordable like the least expensive out of all the ones I'm about to get into and show you so starting at only $20 you can get the Sephora best skin ever I've actually been wanting to try this for a long time I've heard really good things about it so I'm excited to try this out finally this is supposed to be a perfect natural finish longwear Foundation I picked up the shade 20n seemed like it was going to be a good match let's see what it looks like on now always shake your liquid foundation first so give it a good Shake has a really nice bottle by the way nice frosted glass bottle feels a lot more Lux than a $20 Foundation that's for sure I'm going to pump some on top of my hand and let's start out with two pumps already that shade looks like it's going to be pretty good and I'm going to start things out with my favorite foundation brush probably no surprise here you're going to see this brush throughout this entire video it's my N17 brush with BK Beauty this is a dual fiber brush I'm going to be using since this is a liquid foundation primarily haul there's also some creams mixed in here but we're not doing powder foundations I'll be using a lot this lighter fiber side so I'm going to dip into that Sephora Foundation texture of it is pretty thick thicker than I was expecting for some reason but I guess I don't know what I was expecting there's no fragrance it looks like I picked out a good shade so off to a good start I always love when I get a good shade match cuz then I could clearly wear it after this video is filmed and I get my money's worth and I get to keep using it if I like the formula that is so blending it out takes a minute to blend this one so I'm going to switch to more of a patting motion kind of Pat this in coverage is a little inconsistent it definitely has quite a glow to it of course this is going on top of just very basic skin prep I have just a basically a serum a hyaric acid serum and then I have my sunscreen on and that's it I kept it very very minimal and basic for this video because for one thing I don't want to overwhelm my skin with too many products underneath the these foundations and I also want to make sure I'm still testing it out with what I would always recommend as like a base for underneath Foundation yeah you know the coverage is not amazing definitely takes some work to blend this formula out it's a bit inconsistent with the coverage like I'm getting a lot of patchiness right here on my cheek and I'm seeing a lot of like you know I have like some discoloration on my cheeks so I'm seeing right through it you know it's claiming to be a natural finish and it's definitely giving a natural finish so right there it is giving what it's claiming to do overall it's nice I think it's very decent for a $20 formula and again I think the Sephora makes some really amazing formulas that are super affordable so if you're a makeup artist starting out Sephora brand products are a really great way to fill in your kit and to get good quality and be able to present good quality to your clients without spending a million dollars when you're just starting out right cuz that's always a battle I think the feeling of it is really nice it feels very lightweight I would imagine this would be a really great foundation for oily skin combo dry I feel like this is going to fit and check the box for any skin type if you're looking for more of a medium to full coverage and I wouldn't pick this one up let's see if we can kind of build it up as far as coverage okay so the coverage is buildable and it's building more evenly I'm definitely getting more coverage on my cheek overall it's pretty sheer more natural with that first initial application my biggest complaint is if I had to pick one is it just didn't blend out very even it looked a little patchy and I had to kind of work hard to manipulate it to look more smooth on my skin so what I recommend it I would but purely based on what a great affordable price it is and that it's a pretty like overall it's a really good formula it's not the best in the world but if you're looking for something inexpensive like I said then I think this is definitely worth checking out now would I pick this up again I wouldn't but just for those raises I listed there's just so many other ones on the market that I think are you know even better and easier to work with it's not that it's a bad option it's just not the best one I've ever tried so I hope that makes sense so once again that is the Sephora best skin ever Foundation moving up to the $24 price range this is the second most affordable foundation that is sold at Sephora this is from Lys Beauty if you know me you know I love this brand I think they have incredible products that are a great price in general but they're also just really high performing products so I love them specifically for that reason I'm excited to try this I have not tried this yet it is the triple fix serum foundation with ha hyaluronic acid plus turmeric plus Ash Randa very interesting so maybe it's supposed to be like a calming formula for your skin so let's read a few more claims on the back of this box it's supposed to satisfy your skincare and Foundation fix at the same time with this clean light to medium coverage Foundation that is infused with nourishing skincare like ashanda hyaluronic acid and turmeric to enhance the look of your complexion this undetectable serum Foundation instantly diffuses the look of dark spots pores Fine Lines imp perfection without masking your Skin's natural beauty I love that okay so I picked up the shade tg1 Lys has some beautiful packaging by the way like this is for $24 this feels like a Charlotte Tilbury Foundation to me in my opinion like this feels like first of all very heavy just beautiful Luxe packaging so not bad has a pump love a pump over here makes it super easy okay texture of this is very runny this this ran down my hand very very quickly and judging by the shade I might have picked a shade that's a little too dark we're going to find out together there's no fragrance to it so just to point that out I'm going to apply it with my N17 and let's get into it blending out very nice very very nice blend I I pumped out way too much a little bit is going quite a long way to be honest the formula feels really nice on my skin it feels very very nourishing this is supposed to be a serum Foundation that makes sense it does feel very serum like but first impr precious I feel like this would be a good longwearing serum Foundation like most serum foundations feel like they're going to run and fall off your face the the second you leave the front door basically this doesn't have that feeling this feels like it has like a little bit of more grip to it which I really like the finish of it so far is very glowy it is very much like a serum Foundation it's giving a lot of glow a lot of um healthy like juicy shine to my skin feels amazing the color I picked out is definitely a little a touch too dark but that's okay that's my fault I'm going to layer just a little bit more to see what we can do and tap it onto the area of my cheek where I need some more coverage and also one more thing to point out too even though it's a shiny serum based Foundation it has like that shiny glow to it I don't feel like it's emphasizing any texture or like just like pores I have around my cheeks sometimes when you're using a really glowy Foundation it tend to just you know enhance skin texture or pores you might have that are larger that you are trying to disguise it could typically bring them out a bit more than if you're wearing like a smoothing more matte or satin finish Foundation just something to kind of point out overall I think this is a fantastic formula if it feels like I have nothing on my skin it feels like very lightweight almost feels like I have just like skinc Care on my skin to be quite honest it is buildable so that's something to keep in mind I'd say one coat on its own is like a light to medium coverage and you could definitely build up to be a full medium coverage I would say this is great for anyone except if you have really oily skin like true oily skin I would stay away from this formula or at least I would incorporate maybe a more mattifying primer in the area of your T-Zone or anywhere that you get super oily and I would definitely suggest of course setting it with some powder to lock it down but if you have normal skin normal to oily skin even or even normal to dry or obviously very dry skin or dry mature skin I think this would be a really nice formula it's not heavy on the skin it just looks fresh and glowy and dewy it's easy to work with this is a really great formula and for $24 I think this is a a hit for sure so would I recommend this formula yes but again not if you have super oily skin I wouldn't say it's the best formula for you to pick I think that if you have any of the other skin types it's going to be a really great foundation for you and if you're looking looking for something more lightweight and fresh feeling on your skin and not super heavy then this is a really amazing option would I go back out and repurchase this yes and I should probably pick up a better shade for me um I just did the best I could online cuz this is an online Foundation only so I picked only online so once again this is the Lys triple fix serum Foundation okay so that was the last of our foundations they were the $20 range we're now at the $30 range and for that you can get the Liquid touch weightless Foundation from rare Beauty I've been wanting to try this for literally since it came out this is one of like their first launches they came out with I don't know what took me so long cuz I'm a big fan of rare Beauty I think they have amazing really affordable high quality formulas so this is the shade 230n and let's finally try this Foundation out together also I love this packaging I'm such a big fan of rare bews packaging it's very fun but not in like a you know too youthful of a way it still is like very it still feels like luxury to me but in like a more like a slightly more playful fun way love love this packaging actually let's shake this up first okay so this little ball that's in here to help shake up the formula tells me it's going to be more of like a lightweight true liquid formula but let's see okay it's shaking up oh I forgot this has a do foot I love do foot applicators they're so easy and they're so travel friendly you don't have to pump and like worry about a mess so easy okay let's swipe this on ooh okay color is definitely not neutral but it's okay we're going to blend this out see what it looks like on first swipe feels amazing wow does this have fragrance doesn't smell like anything okay this feels like nothing on my skin did I even did I shake this up enough that why is nobody talking about this Foundation that much okay that Blended in my skin within seconds that was so unbelievably easy I'm going to do another swipe because I'm just curious about this all right so it's definitely buildable uh definitely a weightless formula this is a true weightless formula and I have to say like this is one thing I love about rare beauty is they don't overpromise and underd deliver they don't overpromise anything like they don't have these wild claims of like that'll transform your skin and do this and do that where like you get the product and you're expecting so much and then you get you don't get where your you know what the claims are this Foundation is wow gorgeous look at that I mean it literally feels like nothing it feels like just silky lightweight wow okay it's definitely drying down a touch too which I like also because it has clearly it's going to have some sort of like self- setting element to it which I am a huge huge fan of I hate the feeling of products just sitting on my skin I want them to absorb and I want them to dry down on my skin and just like kind of melt in and not have that feeling of just sitting on top this is beautiful this is like a wow wow Foundation I think this would be good for anyone oily dry combo mature young I don't care who you are this formula I think would work for anyone I can't see this not working for anyone especially with that texture that lightweight texture and the way it's buildable it Blended in within seconds it has a really beautiful smoothing effect to it almost gives me like a slight like airbrush kind of quality to my skin especially around here where I have larger pores on my cheeks it looks really smooth really Flawless the shade isn't as bad as I thought it was going to be based on that first swipe however it's definitely not a true neutral this is a warm undertone I don't know why it's labeled with an N which I'm sure is sing for neutral right so that's unfortunate just something to kind of keep an eye out for if you're someone at home who's looking for an actual neutral Foundation this might not be the right shade for you but it's still works it's still beautiful I'm going to be wearing this constantly I can tell you that I highly recommend this one especially for $30 I mean this is a solid amazing formula I don't have not one single complaint about this formula from rare Beauty would I go back out and repurchase it yes absolutely this is something I would look for like finish wise I love this kind of finish or like my Pro kit this this also kind of reminds me of the Dior backstage face and body if I'm being really honest like that gives the same exact kind of finish as a doer face and body and I have that in my Pro kit so this is a standout wow beautiful Foundation I highly recommend this one from rare Beauty we're now in the $34 price range and for 34 bucks you can get the glossier stretch fluid foundation I picked up the shade light five it looked like their foundations were actually running a bit on like the darker side for like a light formula this seemed I mean it looked deeper to me especially when I was swatching inside at Sephora so let's test it out let's see what this color looks like on pretty packaging nice glass bottle it has a pump that's always a plus to me when it has a pump it's just so much easier cuz look it you're just going to pump out what you think you need I'm only going to do about two pumps of this Foundation to start it actually has a much thicker texture to it than and I was picturing I was picturing it to be like a very like almost like oily Foundation I don't know why anyway I'm going to blend this on with my N7 brush using the light fiber side I'm going to dip into it has no fragrance let's see what this looks like H let you read about this light to medium coverage natural finish apply two pumps okay well it's not the easiest to blend on your skin to be quite honest it has a very streaky finish to it and granted I was first applying it kind of back and forth so like the bristles of this brush are longer if you're doing a back and forth motion you can create streakiness to your foundation so I did switch to a tapping which is what I normally do anyway when I'm it's like my preferred method of um blending a foundation on tapping it on looks a lot nicer it actually has a really pretty finish I just feel like it was going on really streaky at first but it could just be a little bit of user error but now once it's on it looks really pretty I actually picked out a really great shade I'm so happy cuz I'll be able to wear this for future videos I'm going to put a little bit more on my chin and let's just see okay yeah it has almost like a like a jelly to it like a a jelly kind of texture to it which I think is Mak it a little streaky in terms of like the blend but once it's on like this is a beautiful finish this looks really nice I'm going to touch it it actually has a way better feeling than I was anticipating I don't know why I just had this thought in my head that it's glossier it's going to be like that no makeup makeup feel and look but this is surprising to me the way it dried down is really really nice I feel like it's going to have longevity based on that alone the fact that it's like actually dried down in my skin but dried down to like this beautiful satin finish I have to say I am very surprised at how much I love this foundation and this I know this is my first impression of course beautiful coverage I am going to build it up just to see what it does when I build it up so that initial layer I'd say is like a perfect medium coverage let's see what we can do right here by layering it okay yeah you could definitely layer this and build it up it's looking pretty it's layering nice on on top of that first coat yeah I mean I I feel like this gives my skin a really nice smooth finish it's not emphasizing any texture I have it's not emphasizing my pores and the inner part of my cheek it looks really smooth I love that it had that dry down time that self-citing aspect to it big surprise I was again I was not expecting that from a glossier product at all I was I was expecting it to like slide down my face and kind of disappear that's just what I was expecting I'm so pleasantly surprised I feel like this is a really beautiful Foundation I think it would be good for all skin types the fact that it has that dry down feeling to it if you have oily skin combination oily skin for dry skin I don't see why you couldn't wear this Foundation I feel like it' be like a beautiful foundation for dry skin mature skin young skin doesn't matter I think this is a really nice formula I'm so pleasantly surprised would I go back out and repurchase this one from glossier I definitely would I think this is so pretty it's such a pretty Foundation price point wise it's a nice price point it's 34 bucks I would definitely go back out and repurchase it and I definitely would recommend this one from gloss this next one is also $34 it's from danessa Myrick spoiler alert I bought this before I did this huge haul at Sephora and I love this Foundation it is just it is so amazing if you have dry skin I don't have dry skin but this is like a really great drink of water for my skin when it's when I'm in the colder months and my skin is just more dehydrated and feeling more dry let me show you what it looks like on it's the denessa myrix yummy skin serum Foundation I have the shade 9N one thing I love about this like in terms of packaging let's just kick it off with the packaging I love the the squeezy tube this is like if you're a makeup artist or if you're on the go and you travel with your makeup a lot traveling with glass bottles can be very stressful very risky very messy cuz if it breaks and it shatters you're looking at a huge mess and also it's dangerous so I love that you can just squeeze out the amount that you want I mean it's just genius genius packaging danessa myrix has some of my favorite products she's a pro makeup artist if you haven't tried her products yet they're all fantastic so no surprised that I love the yummy skin serum Foundation now I'm going to apply with my N7 brush texture of this is actually a little bit on the thicker side but it Blends out to be this juicy medium coverage that is just Flawless on your skin it is like a Flawless beautiful medium coverage you need a really small amount in fact I always do this I always end up pumping out or squeezing out way too much of the product don't do what I did you don't want to waste it it's a fantastic foundation that you want to just don't waste any of it less is more it really spreads so much and so far to your skin so like that one swipe I could just spread it to the entire rest of my forehead my chin and get this whole side knocked out like it is like the most expandable Foundation that I've tried in a while so I'm going to blend it out now the shade is a teeny bit on the dark side for me however I didn't pick up the shade below it because that seemed a little too light so I just opted for something that's like a little teeny bit too dark the finish of this is like juicy glowy Flawless skin like that's like the best way to describe it is like just juicy dewy glowy hydrated skin that's flawless I mean it Blends out super easy you need very very a minimal amount to achieve a medium to even full coverage with this Foundation it's deceivingly full coverage honestly the way it feels on your skin it feels like I put on a serum a moisturizer and I just left it alone it doesn't feel like I have makeup on it just feels like I have like really moisturizing skincare on so I love the feeling this is a fantastic formula if you have really really dry skin or if you have dry mature skin or just have mature skin you want that extra bit of plumpness and hydration to your skin if you have oily skin this is the only thing if you have really true oily skin I would not recommend this for you I don't think you're going to love it I don't think it's going to suit your skin type the best to say the least I think if you are oily in some areas but combination to normal like let's see you have just just a combination oily T-Zone you're definitely going to want to set the T-Zone especially with a good amount of translucent powder and then I think you could definitely wear sometimes the glowier the finish the more it can exaggerate and emphasize any texture or large pores on your skin this one does not do that I feel like it still makes my skin look really smooth and really Flawless look how beautiful that glow is and you could tone it down easily you could definitely tone it down if you're not wanting it to be this glow you could tone it down of course with just a setting powder or a blotting powder throughout the day there's ways to manipul it to make it perfect to what you want but I just think this is such an amazing formula it's very unique I haven't tried a foundation like this in a really long time and to me this is just probably one of the best foundations out there for dry skin do I recommend this one 100% just not if you have oily skin would I go back out and repurchase it yes absolutely so once again this is the danessa Marx yummy skin serum Foundation next up is $35 it's a product that I've Loved for since it came out actually I've been using this since it came on the market it's from one size it's a really unique product I just want to point this out really quick because throughout this video you're only going to see foundations that are marketed as foundations not skin tints not CC creams not tinted moisturizers that's for a whole other video these are specifically foundations however I really felt the need to include this okay hear me out this is why it's called Turn up the base it's a BBB cream it's a beauty blur balm this it's not marketed as a tinted moisturizer and it's not marketed as a foundation it's somewhere in between and it does provide immense coverage so I really wanted to include it for that reason also because I want to be able to Showcase something from one siiz Beauty they also have a powder foundation but this is not about powder foundations so we're kind of giving this one a little bit of a pass and I hope you could forgive me for that without further Ado let's try on the turn up the base BBB cream I have the shade medium 1 neutral this is a really good match for me packaging Wise It's just in a squeezy tube which is very quick very very easy the only thing I don't like okay is this after you squeeze out the foundation and this is inevitable like this is just something that happens naturally I'm just I don't like messes and this always creates a mess that I have to like wipe off so it doesn't get on the rest of my makeup all right now that we've talked about that and discussed that part I love the fact that it is in a tube it's easy it's easy to travel with that I'm going to apply this one with a BK Beauty 109 now the reason why I love this product is it virtually disappears into your skin and makes your skin look like it's has a filter on it it's like a the ultimate blurring product it's not sheer it gives you this amazing amount of coverage for being a product that's not like actually marketed as a foundation it gives you phenomenal coverage but look at the way this melts into your skin without having to blend and buff and overly work the product it just it Blends right in it's like butter that just melts onto your skin it's so fantastic I don't know what's in this product I should really read more about it because cuz it's a magical product with like such a unique finish the only product this kind of reminds me of is actually the Nars matte tinted moisturizer That I Used to Love years ago but even that is not nearly as good as this one- siiz beauty turn up the base so you could see it instantly blurs my skin I mean look at that color is perfect the way it feels in your skin is so nice texture of it is amazing it just feels like a satiny almost like whipped kind of texture it's very silky it's very long lasting and if you have oily skin I think this is a standout product that you should definitely check out if you have dry skin I would say avoid this one because it does have that more of a matte feeling and more of a matte look to it so I would just be more careful like if you do have really dry skin you're still curious to try this out just make sure you're doing your due diligence and you're doing the right skin prep based for your skin type and then you could probably get away with trying it however I wouldn't it wouldn't be like the first suggestion of mine if you have dry skin if that makes sense if you have combination skin go for it but again if you have oily skin I really think this is like a product that you should absolutely check out I mean it's just all around it's a really well done product and I've loved it for so long I feel like it's such a underrated product especially for one siiz Beauty they have a lot of really great products that have gone viral but no one really talks about this and I'm still surprised to this day so maybe we can make it go viral cuz it really deserves it would I go back out repurchase this one yes I have before this is my third one that I've that I've owned in my life since they've been out I recommend this for anyone with oily skin combination skin combination leaning dry is totally fine mature skin I don't see why not it has a really beautiful blurring texture to it so if you have more skin texture more mature skin with fine lines and wrinkles you might really love how blurring this is on your skin shade range is amazing they have really great undertones at one siiz Beauty Blends really well into your skin the Finish is just gorgeous it's easy to work with packaging is great price Point's great you have to try it so once again this is the one siiz Beauty turn up the base BBB cream next up we have one from nude STI this one is $36 it comes in this cute little tint I I've always liked how their products come in tins this is the tinted cover Foundation I picked up the shade nude 3.5 and I've heard really good things about this Foundation I know a lot of makeup ARS that actually love this formula Foundation I've never tried it so today is the day and I'm really excited to try this on camera so let's open this up it's kind of cute that has like a mirror inside too all right so this comes in a squeeze tube and I can't really shake this formul I know it's like more of a thicker cream formula or at least like more creamy based so I'm going to pump it on the top of my hand I love a good plastic tube these are amazing for travel you know you don't have to worry about them shattering or breaking they're also is really convenient if you're a makeup artist or just if you just want convenient things I love a good like tube with a pump those are always so easy to work with so packaging alone love now let's apply this with a clean 106 brush from DK Beauty this has a hint of yeah this does have fragrance to it I'm not sure almost kind of smells like H like a almost smells like a minty like a fresh minty kind of fragrance to it very very interesting I'll have to look into like what exactly that is feels very nice and refreshing on my skin tinted cover Foundation what are the claims on this let's kind of read about this if there's any claims there's no claims but they do have all the ingredients listed on the back of the tin so that's always nice um wow shade is great that's amazing great love that it's blending in really nice there's a hint of patchiness going on it's not the worst but it's just simp to note and to point out this feels really nice on my skin though I have to say like this feels really really comfortable really lightweight I think this would be a good option if you're looking for some coverage right some easy coverage cuz it is still easy to work with like I said it's a little patchy in some areas like I can see my cheek discoloration just a little bit through the product it's not horrible but just something you to know like I said but if you're looking for like a light weight formula that feels very just just feels lightweight like doesn't feel heavy on your skin it looks really natural this gives a really nice natural skin like finish it just looks like my skin but more even I think this is a really nice formula for that I would say this is probably good for anyone even if you have yeah even if you have oily skin I can't imagine this being like a really bad formula for you cuz it doesn't feel like you know just have like a greasy I hate to use that word but it doesn't have like a greasy feeling to it so if you have oily skin I think it still be a really nice glowy more natural finish product for you combination normal dry super dry mature I think anybody could wear this formula I really do I think this is like a good basic natural lightweight feeling formula that anybody could work with I'd say in total this is more of a full light not even like really on the medium cusp to be honest it just feels very feels very lightweight very natural I like this a lot I think I need to play with it more of course but like First Impressions it's a really nice formula it feels really lightweight and healthy on my skin it's not the the most easy to blend on it's also not that bad it was it was still fairly easy would I go back out and repurchase this one from nud s yes I would I think it's definitely a good enough formula to you know purchase again and to continue to use and I will continue to wear this throughout my you know you'll see it on my YouTube channel I'm sure on my social media I do recommend this one so if you're looking for a lightweight very natural feeling Foundation that's pretty easy to apply and this is a really good one to look into for sure so once again that is the nude sticks tinted cover foundation in the shade nude 3.5 really pretty next up for $36 is a product that I absolutely love if you're not new to my YouTube channel you watch my other videos you're going to know that I love this so spoiler alert I am so into this product I think it's such an amazing complection product it's the Fenty Beauty tint stick EAS drop tint stick these are a medium but buildable coverage they are fantastic especially if you're someone on the go and you want something that's quick and easy and not not messy this product is absolutely for you let me show you what it looks like on in case you have not seen it yet on my channel I'm going to apply the shade eight and just swipe it on and you're going to see how first of all you can load this product onto your skin like you can like get in there and like load it up and it doesn't look heavy it never looks heavy it is just such a fantastic formula product I mean it's amazing it really is let me show you what it looks like blend it in I'm going to blend it in just softly with my N15 brush now like I mentioned you can build this up so if you just did like one thin layer can blend it on and be done but if you want to customize it and get even more coverage you could of course layer it and build it up to be more of a a full coverage so I'm going to tap it in it just blends with such ease it's such a beginner friendly product I feel like if you are just starting out with makeup and maybe like liquid foundations intimidate you they're more fussy and you want something that's just really easy to work with when you're just starting out in your makeup journey I can't recommend this enough I really cannot it Blends into your skin it really has a great way of blurring your skin so it's going to blur any skin texture any large pores if you have fine lines any kind of texture on your skin it's going to help to smooth and really blur so it's going to give you more of a filtered look to your skin which we all want right I mean who does want more of a filtered look to their skin but the ease of use with this and also just how user friendly it is checks so many boxes for me I just feel like if you have little to no blending skill or ation skill with products you could still put this on blend it out and do it with such ease so the feeling of it is nice it feels like a really lightweight feeling it doesn't feel like a heavy thick cream or stick Foundation like a lot of stick foundations can tend to feel really heavy on your skin this feels like nothing super lightweight the shade range is amazing but not only that the shade range that they have it's very it's very flexible in terms of like the colors so the colors are very flexible they're very forgiving they kind of have like a tinted moisturizer flexibility where you know you don't have to get like the exact shade that matches your skin there's more wiggle room in terms of the shades where you can kind of pick one that's maybe a little too dark or a little too light or it's not quite the right undertone and it really does still melt into your skin and is more like color adjusting I should say finish is beautiful you can see it has a really nice like a soft satin to matte finish depending on like what your skin type is I think it will change to whatever your skin type is so for me it's looking like more of a satin to matte finish right now if you prep your skin with more glowy more emolient moisturizers it's going to have an even more glowy finish to it whereas if you prep your skin with more of like a mattifying primer it's going to have more of a matte finish I recommend this for anyone I think even if you have dry skin mature skin young skin oily combo doesn't matter this is going to be a universally easy product to work with that works well for in my opinion any skin type so definitely check this one out this is a hit so once again this is the Fenty EAS drop tint stick Foundation next up is $38 it's a foundation I've actually been C curious about for many years and I just have never gotten around to trying it until now it's the Anastasia Beverly Hills luminous Foundation now I got to warn you the shade range was very difficult the undertones I felt like were just not matching what they were saying they were so please forgive me if the shade that I picked out is not for me we're going to find out together cuz I only swatched it on the top of my hand and that's you can only tell so much right and also the seora that I was at was so packed I was like getting stressed out but anyway we're going to try this out I pied ped up the shade 250c and let's see what this looks like on love the glass bottle very Lux feels really nice feels very you know very luxurious love the pump let me shake it a little bit okay so this is supposed to be a luminous medium coverage Foundation I like that natural finish let's see what it looks like on let's do about two pumps to start I'm going to apply with my N17 no fragrance to it that's nice ooh hey this color is going to work wow okay and you'll notice too the color reference is 250c now normally that stands for a cool undertone meaning more pink based it's going to have more pink and Peach in the undertone Anastasia Beverly Hills is it's kind of like house labs and Mac Cosmetics where they just do the opposite they they take the undertones and what they stand for and they flip it so that took me a minute to realize when I was swatching the shades at my Sephora so this definitely has more of a warm golden undertone much more like my undertone my complexion so something to keep in mind if you're shopping for Anastasia Beverly Hills keep in mind that's a big factor so just switch switch the undertones that blended into my skin so quick and so easy while I was chatting away about the undertones let me put some on my chin has no fragrance feels really nice I mean I'm really impressed with this Foundation I just barely got it on my skin uh definitely buildable I'm going to build up a little bit more of my cheek right here but wow coverage is Beautiful Finish is one of my favorite kind of finish like this finish is just this is like the finish that I I look for always with with a foundation it's luminous it's giving me Flawless skin it is not emphasizing anything on my skin it's luminous but not in like an overwhelming way too so I really like that and I really want to point that out so if you have oily skin and maybe you're afraid of going for like a luminous marketed product I wouldn't be afraid of this one I think this is going to be a really nice formula for even more of an oily skin type or combination skin this would absolutely be beautiful I think this would be a stand out for dry skin absolutely and for maybe mature skin that wants a nice Flawless finish with more of a medium coverage this is beautiful I think the only complaint that I have about this Foundation is just the way the shade range is labeled is ridiculously confusing fun fact actually I think I took the longest to pick out this shade when I was in store shopping for these foundations than I did for any other of the brands I think maybe had a hard time with kbd but this was like this took me a long time I was standing in the Anastasia B Hill aisle for a long time people checked on me they were worried about me cuz I was there for so long it was worth it cuz that's just absolutely beautiful wow blendability super easy coverage is absolutely gorgeous I love the finish I love everything about this Foundation except for the undertone labeling that's it so would I recommend this 100% I think anybody could wear this for the most part I really do would I go back out repurchase this one yes I'm actually curious maybe I should put this in my Pro kit because that is a stunning stunning Foundation price range below average honestly $38 for a really really nice formula Foundation is something you don't see that often a lot of the foundations that feel like this are at least $10 more at least $10 more so got a hand to Anastasia B Hills this is a beautiful Foundation I would definitely recommend this one next up is also $38 and we have a stick formula this is from Meritt it is the I always forget the name it's the minimalist perfecting complexion stick I have the shade camel now I did have a a difficult time choosing the shade like the right shade there's not a lot of shade options at all so the shade range unfortunately is very very disappointing with this product just got to put that out there now so let's try it on together I've only tried it one other time before this video but not enough times to form an opinion yet so let's try this one out together okay the shade that I picked up is just it's obviously a little too dark for me and you know what I think we're going to buff this on with a 106 from BK Beauty okay yeah so it's a very very thick formula and what I noticed the most is it doesn't have a lot of ease with the blend like it you have to really kind of force it to blend it onto your skin I don't like having to like force a blend like I want to like be able to blend on my skin really smooth really easy because no one wants to like overly work their skin right cuz it's like wear and tear on your skin I think obviously if I had more of a glowy base on I'd probably have an easier time in fact let me just switch to my n14 for this area yeah even with this small Buffy brush it's still difficult to blend this onto my skin coverage wise the coverage is is pretty full for being a minimalist product I'd say the coverage of this that you get right away is maybe a little bit challenging for for being marketed as like a minimalist product when I think minimalist I think it's going to make a broad range of people happy right it's going to like fit the needs of majority of people and I don't think that this fits the majority of people's needs I think this is a very Niche product where if if you want like a stick full coverage Foundation product that's great for you but if you don't want that kind of product if you're not looking for that kind of full coverage then you're not going to like this so I don't feel like it's an everyday type product for that reason I do also find that just if this is the only foundation that they're going to carry it's such a small component like it's going to take you a long time to swipe on and maybe I'm just being dramatic but this little tiny component is going to take a long time to swipe on your entire face and the fact that it's not like the most spreadable product means you do need to kind of coat each area of your face if you want an even amount of coverage where some of the products can like expand really well where like you just kind of do a couple swipes like the Fenty one for example you do a couple swipes and it's really expandable and really movable where you can kind of blend it all over really easily this one I didn't find it to be that easy to spread out to the rest of my face so I'm going to move on I don't love this finish it just has heavier feeling to me and I I don't like that personally I would recommend this product to anyone who's looking for a full coverage stick foundation and maybe someone who has more oily skin cuz I feel like this would not be a great formula for dry skin personally I don't think I'd recommend this for mature skin either because it's a stick and it's a really thick formula and it might look really heavy on more mature skin if you're young go for it absolutely if you have normal skin 100% you might love this formula the only thing I will say that I do really like about it is how small and compact it is I just don't love that the applicator itself is so small and compact but otherwise packaging is really nice and Sleek it's not the most expensive product so that's really good would I go back out and repurchase this one no I don't think it's the right product for me personally but if you've tried it and you love it please feel free to leave me a comment below so that once again is the Merit stick Foundation speaking of stick foundations I've had this one for a while it's borderline probably expired but you know what we're just testing out for this video just for the sake of the video it's the Huda Beauty stick Foundation it's actually the faux filter skin finish buildable coverage Foundation stick to be exact I have the shade latte it's 300N latte so it's going to be more of a neutral undertone I actually have been enjoying this for many years at this point it's a really nice stick formula it's really creamy it Blends really easy let me show you what it looks like on in case you've missed me using it in the past on my channel okay let's swipe this on got a little chunky and I'm going to blend this one out with my N17 so this is a very full coverage however I have to say it doesn't look heavy on the skin and that's a really hard thing to achieve with cream foundations like stick foundations in my opinion like I swiped on quite a bit of product and to me this looks almost similar to the one siiz Beauty ter the base babyb cream it has that very soft focus very blurring effect to it very Flawless in fact I'm going to blend a little bit more on it's easy to work with it's definitely convenient in the stick form you just twist it up as you need more product I think HUD be has some amazing complexion products the only thing I will say is I wish some of her undertones were more true to being neutral they do lean a little bit more on like the golden more warm undertone side this one's supposed to be a neutral and it's it's close to a neutral but I still feel like it has slightly leaning towards the warm gold inside but that aside finish of it is beautiful like you can see it has a beautiful Flawless finish to it it doesn't feel heavy it doesn't look heavy I think this is a really great stick foundation for anyone who wants that full coverage and maybe that product on the go just to swipe on and then blend out it's really perfect for that the only person I would say it's not probably great for is more mature skin I think it could probably have more of a heavier finish if you do have mature skin so just a for warning but if you have young skin um anything else other than like very mature skin I think you would probably love this Foundation great for oily skin definitely has more of a satin to matte finish depending on how you prep your skin you could probably alter it quite a bit so if you do have slightly drier skin you could definitely check this formula out just make sure you prep your skin accordingly if you have really really dry skin I'd say this is not going to be the best formula to check out there's plenty of others for you out there same goes for the mature skin I think it's not the best formula for mature skin however so do I recommend this one absolutely it's a fantastic formula if you want a full coverage or medium to buildable stick Foundation would I go back out and repurchase this definitely it's a really great product for all those reasons I listed it's just beautiful it's easy to work with and the price point is really nice and you don't need that much of it too so this will last you a really really long time so once again that is the Huda Beauty faux filter Foundation stick we are now in the $40 price range and for that you can get the Fenty Beauty Pro filter soft matte longwear foundation this one has been around for a while it's I think one of their original if not it actually is their original Foundation form that they launch launched when the brand first launched and I got a hand to Fenty Beauty I know I talk about this a lot but they are really like the pioneers of having the most expansive inclusive shade range on the market like they set the tone for the rest of these Brands to follow suit and to finally pick up the slack where they were missing and lacking shades for everyone like the shade range is just perfection I have the shade 230 and I know this is a little bit too light for me but we're going to try it on anyway it's okay you know it's for the sake of the video it's not the perfect shade for me that's my fault cuz I chose it online a long long time ago and I just I chose wrong so I'm actually going to apply with my N15 brush and with full coverage foundations like this I actually like to kind of use a slightly bigger brush to Shear it out to be a little bit more natural but also just this is going to help blend this Foundation into my skin really quick and really easy even without using a brush it's more fluffy it does blend out pretty easy this foundation so it's easy to work with it's definitely a medium to full coverage like buildable Foundation the finish of it is going to be more of a matte finish it's meant to be more of a matte finish foundation so for anyone who has oily skin really fantastic option so if you have oily skin you want a full coverage Foundation or just a really Flawless finish Foundation this is a great great option to check out so I'm going to buff it into my skin you can see it's just a teeny bit too light for my complexion Blends in super quick super easy has a really Flawless finish to it it definitely gives my skin and a really smooth finish like there's no emphasis on texture there's no emphasis on my pores on my cheeks it just looks like a filter like it legit looks like a filter on my skin so yeah Blends easy an amazing shade range price point is definitely nice a little bit goes a long way with this Foundation just something to keep in mind I'd recommend this for anyone who wants a full coverage foundation with a matte finish anyone who has oily skin severely oily skin combination oily skin the only person I wouldn't recom this foundation for is anyone who has super dry skin or mature skin I don't think it's going to be the best option out there for you there's going to be so many other options instead to check out I mean look at that it's stunning right so would I recommend this one yes for those people that I just mentioned would I go back out and purchase it again yes and I really should go back out and purchase a slightly darker shade so I could start wearing this on a regular basis and trying it out more often so once again that's the Fenty Beauty Pro filter Foundation next up for $40 you can get the makeup forever matte velvet skin this is a 24-hour wear Foundation I have never tried this but I do like the matte concealer formula is very very longwearing so I'm excited to try it I picked up the shade y305 and I had to just warn you I picked this up in store and the shades that were available for me to actually get were extremely limited so we are going to find out together what this looks like on but I don't have High Hopes okay now this is supposed to be a next Generation mattifying Foundation that combines full coverage 24-hour wear and a second skin effect love that all right so longwearing Second Skin effect it's a medium to full coverage suitable for combination to oily skin I like the way they put that in there okay let's try it out I love a good tube for the reasons why I've been listing but nice convenient packaging love the squeezy tube I'm going to just put some on the top of my hand yeah this is going to be too light that's my fault we're going to dip into it with my 106 brush this is definitely going to be a full coverage okay H this has a bit of fragrance to it okay let me just smell this more time yeah this definitely has some a slight bit of fragrance to it it's definitely full coverage it's a little thick it is a little thick and it's drying down on the top of my hand really quick as well so hence probably the longwearing aspect of it you know longwear foundations they tend to dry down really quick on the skin because they have to have like some form of like self- setting ingredient in it that helps it to just stay on your skin and stay put for x amount of hours like in this case 24 hours right so it does have like a quick dry down time which is expected and normal for any foundation that's supposed to be longwearing and also like more full coverage typically as well so very full coverage very thick but you know what for it being so thick it doesn't feel bad on my skin it actually does not have a heavy feeling to it and I was really going into it honestly expecting it to feel very heavy and like thick on my skin like kind of weigh it down this actually has a beautiful finish like to be honest that looks beautiful it's very full coverage but it looks beautiful and like very very flawless I wouldn't say this is a great selection for dry mature skin or just just mature skin in general even if you have oily mature skin I think this could be just maybe a little too thick of a formula for more mature skin it could it could potentially settle into Fine Lines things like that right so I would maybe just keep that in mind if you are like a mature but oily skin mature person maybe opt for something a little bit more lightweight and texture so it doesn't settle in but again that's just my initial thoughts I don't know for sure if you have just combination oily skin or very oily skin and you want that full coverage I would 100% look into getting this Foundation cuz I feel like I have just a simple lightweight coverage on it does not feel heavy at all so wow makeup forever and also this shade is is looking great like it's a little bit it's a little lighter for like what I typically pick out very wearable and I will definitely end up wearing this like let's say I have an event and I want very full coverage flawless longwearing Foundation that's going to stay put all night or all day I will definitely be using this for sure this is a really beautiful Foundation like the more I look at it the more I'm in awe like it it has smoothed my skin it looks super Flawless but it doesn't look like I have a mask of makeup on and it doesn't feel like I have a mask of makeup on so very well done Makeup Forever wow wow wow when I go back out and repurchase it 100% yes this is a showstopper in my opinion so once again that's the makeup forever matte velvet skin absolutely beautiful next up we have one from SE it's also $40 I've actually been wanting to try this one for quite some time so this was like the perfect excuse to go out and pick it up I'm very excited for this one okay I picked up the shade eight it's the SE glowy super skin it's a lightweight luminous Foundation I like all those things so let's try it out packaging is beautiful I do love the glass bottle I'm a sucker for anything that feels like Lux and just really nice it is a pump which is also fantastic I'm going to shake this up because I feel like it's a little bit B more on the watery side so let's just do two pumps on the top of my hand it's probably good and I'm going to apply this with a 101 from BK Beauty and let's see ooh wow wow okay I picked up a great shade so that's amazing this is very glowy but let's see if it dries down it be touch touch more matte or at least satin for being super glowy I still feel like it gives me a nice full light coverage like a fullon light coverage nothing less maybe borderline going into a medium Blends really easy feels extremely comfortable on my skin like very very hydrating coverage is nice for a lightweight glowy Foundation this is definitely more of like a your natural finish especially if you have dry skin I would say this is going to be a perfect finish and feeling and texture for dry skin I will say if you are oily like a true oily skin person you're probably not going to like this feeling this is going to be way too glowy way too almost oily feeling on your skin so just a forewarning I'm sure if you mixed it with maybe a little bit of a mattifying primer underneath or you set it thoroughly with a more mattifying powder you could probably get away with utilizing it and wearing it but ultimately I feel like it's just not the right formula for more oily skin people out there but if you have really dry skin or combination dry skin or if you have mature skin wow you should definitely check this one out because it's just so easy I mean I blended right into my skin with very very minimal effort it looks just like a healthy glowy juicy foundation so if you're for a foundation that has a lot of hydration to it and has that nice hydrating feel to it you're probably going to love this one I will say it's probably buildable so let's just build up a little bit more with whatever's left over on my hand and tap it in okay so you can kind of build it up but it's not layering as well as I would like it to because it is so wet it's not really drying down enough for me to like layer another additional layer on top so just something to keep in mind so I feel like if you need more coverage maybe instead of trying to layer it just opt to do some spot concealing in the places you want more coverage but all in all really beautiful finish for being so glowy I don't think it's emphasizing my pores on my cheeks or any kind of texture so that's always a plus it Blended out really quick really easy the coverage is a really nice natural light to medium I would say at best the feeling of it is really nice it feels like very hydrating and nice on my skin it's not too pricey which is good I like the packaging would I recommend this yes but not if you have severely oily skin when I go back out purchase this I would cuz this is really nice and I think this is going to be really good for me when my skin is more dry like in the colder winter months this is going to be the kind of foundation that I'm going to grab and like want to wear on a daily basis for summertime probably not so much but that's okay there's a time and a place for everything right so once again that is the SE super glowy skin Foundation next up we have another one for $40 this is from tart and I'm not looking forward to trying this one on okay and I have just be honest with you when I Swatch this on the top of my hand at Sephora I was like what is this texture okay we're going to try it out cuz for the sake of the video it's the tarte Amazonian clay 16-hour full coverage Foundation this is so old school it takes me back to honestly this brings me back to like when I first started wearing makeup like it's been around for a really really long time it's very old school it's it's miraculously still selling there's still people out there that like this one let's just get into it okay it's a poreless technology full coverage and soft mat finish dermatologist tested and a Comm that's what all it says I picked up the shade 37s medium tan sand now all of the shades to choose from I'm pretty sure they all said sand every single one of them was sand sand this sand that Medium sand tan sand tan sand plus tan sand I mean it was like everything was tan sand I was so confused I was like just give me give me an undertone just just give me an undertone to to just try to color match myself I had a really hard time speaking of like hard time like I know I said I spent a long time trying to find my Anastasia shade well I spent a long time trying to find my tart and actually I just really ended up giving up and just kind of grabbing what I thought was going to work well enough let's try it out let's stop talking about it I do like the packaging just an FYI I really like the packaging I love the tube and I really like the wood cap aside from the very nice packaging I'm going to squeeze them out on the top of my hand and you could just see this is like it's like thick it's not going to fly off like I could probably yeah no it's not going anywhere it's just so thick but we're going to try it out okay we're going to test it out I'm going to apply it with a freshly clean N7 brush with BK Beauty and let's see what we got okay so you know here's the thing I will hand it to Tar this was very Innovative back in the day like this was a big innovation it was popular it was like there was nothing like it on the market and I get that and it totally had its day the thing that bothers me about tar is they never got with the times you know they never really they've never really updated their products and you know I've talked about this before so I'm not going to go too far in dep but they have some of the worst shade ranges in in makeup history in my opinion like their their shade range is so not inclusive in any way shape or form of the imagination like it's just not and they've never corrected it they've never like at least Too Faced like they they did try at least I mean I say this like at least they tried to like expand their shade range they still don't have enough but at least they tried they made an effort tar has never made an effort to oh my God this looks like oh my God I look 20 years older all of a sudden wow okay they never became current with the times they haven't changed anything about their brand and like that's what's just so shocking to me it's like you've been around for so long miraculously you're still selling products I'm like good for you I'm glad you know that you're still seeing some success I'm sure there's some people that just love it and it works for them and it's tried and true and I really understand that totally but the fact that they've never even tried to expand their shade range to accommodate other people like new customers new people that might love their brand it's just so unfair and I was just really bitter buying this Foundation I had to be really real I didn't want to spend my money on it I didn't want to give them my money for those reasons it just makes me very angry very very angry the other thing that's making me really angry right now is the fact that I look like I just put Play-Doh on my face like I look like I just grabbed Play-Doh and smeared it on my face the life of my skin is just dled down by this Foundation it's just a terrible feeling it's so thick it's so pasty I mean I can't imagine anyone really loving the way this feels on their skin if you're out there let me know just just tell me it's totally fine if you have dry skin or more mature skin don't even touch this with a 10-ft pole in my opinion I think this will agid you even more if you have mature skin I already I feel like I'm 20 years older just wearing this on this side like it's just cracky thick p tasty terrible shade range I could go on and on the only thing that has going for it honestly is this really nice easy and convenient squeeze tube packaging with the really pretty wood cap I like that price range isn't horrible the finish of this is terrible I hate the texture of it I really cannot stand it it's a full coverage but it's a heavy heavy full coverage it's like weighs you down kind of full coverage I know I'm being dramatic trust me I know I I totally understand it but that this makes me want to be dramatic that's how much I just don't like it I don't recommend this for anyone to be honest I wouldn't go back out and buy this ever again but once again this is the tarte Amazonian clay Foundation okay next one is another one from tarte same price it's $40 this is going to be the opposite spectrum of the first one we just tried out that one is like full coverage super matte this instead is the tarte maracuja juicy glow Foundation okay so I've never tried this one I've never even heard anything about it to be honest I've never heard anyone talk about it uh I don't know anything about this foundation so it's going to be new to all of us same kind of packaging I do like the tube like I mentioned earlier I love the cap very Lux just very very earthy very nice the shade that I picked up is 27s light medium sand everything sand it's all sand everything is sand with tart I'm going to squeeze them out on the top of my hand it's more of a juicy texture which is amazing it's going to feel so much better on my skin compared to the last one let's swipe this on yeah that's already way better let's swipe this on with my N7 and let's see what we got okay right off the bat absolutely so much better okay so much better and I might be biased just cuz the other one felt so dry and just like Play-Doh on my skin this one feels like just incredibly amazing in comparison let's blend this on not the easiest to blend it has almost like okay I think it has this definitely has a little bit of a Luminosity to it not just in terms of like it's glowy but it actually has like pearlescent glow in it like in the formula it's giv a little hint of Tin Man from The Wizard of Oz it's not even coverage so that's frustrating it's definitely like splotchy and patchy in certain areas like right here so let me blend on some more let's try and give this a good go all right not the easiest to layer and build coverage is just I'd say it's a medium but it's patchy it's like a patchy medium where I can still see redness in my skin right here and in here and that's like trying to build up and layer it is this marketed to be a medium let's read this again medium coverage radiant finish Blends like a second skin to blur the look of pores it's not emphasizing my pores but it definitely has like a high Sheen to it hyic acid and super fruit complex for hydrated brighter and smoother looking skin okay well I can tell you one thing if you're going to choose between those two tarte foundations for the same price this one is significantly better but it's still not good the patchiness in the formula is really frustrating that's really frustrating to work with you know if you especially if you want some coverage with your medium coverage Foundation you're not really getting an even coverage with this one it's definitely patchy like I said and inconsistent in the coverage which is not fun to to work with texture is fine finish is okay it's okay I mean no actually the Finish is just it's not that great because I have that patchiness in the in the coverage so the fact that it has that makes the Finish just not it's not Flawless in any way the feeling of it is fine the price point is fine shade range is just as terrible as last one so there's that would I go back out and repurchase this one never ever ever would I recommend this one no cuz there's so many better formulas out there they are glowy that actually give you a beautiful finish they give you like really nice coverage and are easier to work with and they have better shade ranges and more shades available so no I wouldn't recommend this one and uh I I don't like it sorry to say and if you think I'm being too Harden them that's fine too it's just my personal opinion but this once again is the tarte maracu Puja juicy glow Foundation moving on to $42 for that you can get the makeup forever reboot Foundation this is a really classic Foundation I just have to warn you it's a really beautiful Foundation I have not used this in many many many years and I know they did reformulate it since I've used it years ago so I'm excited and super anxious to try it again because it's a favorite it's like a fan favorite and an artist favorite that's been around for a long time so reboot your complexion instantly and over time so all day wear once again 24hour hydration firming smoothing brightening let's just try it on I picked out the shade I think I picked out the same shade yes I did great okay so y305 it's actually the same shade that I picked out in the matte velvet formula I'm going to shake it in case it needs it Luxe packaging glass bottle feels very highend has a pump which again is always great and very welcomed Let's do let's start with that much and I'm going to apply this with my N7 the lighter fiber side pick this up it's actually a lot more runny than I was expecting has the same amount of fragrance as that last one it's not bad it's not overwhelming just something to point out in case that bothers you so the reboot Foundation is supposed to feel like very lightweight very second skin-like very hydrating that's what I remember the most about it is it was a very hydrating formula and this already feels like I'm putting skinc Care on my skin right now it doesn't feel like I'm putting foundation on it literally feels like yeah it feels like I'm putting like a nice watery serum on my skin so the coverage is not you know the most intense with this formula it's going to be more of a natural radiant coverage but I do remember being able to build this coverage up so I'm going to build it up a little bit more on my cheek and you can see it's blending out fairly easy it's very lightweight it's very sheer so you know it's it's not going to be like a full coverage or it's less forgiving it's very forgiving in terms of like how you blend it out if you miss a spot if you know if you're not the most incredibly skilled at blending your foundation this is going to be a really nice forgiving formula so just something to point out that I think is really nice it's definitely Illuminating like this is is giving me quite a bit of like glow obviously hydration I do feel like it's giving a slight smoothing effect however I do think that my pores they don't look the most smooth right here so it's smoothing in areas I'm already smooth if that makes sense it's not really giving me much more smoothness and texture but it's still nice it's still very easy to work with feels very very hydrating I think this is good for anyone even oily skin I think you could still wear this one I probably just be careful and make sure you still powder down areas that you get severely oily throughout the day but if you're normal to oily normal skin in general if you're combo if you have mature skin this is a really beautiful Foundation cuz it does it does offer a very like like an instant skin Plumping effect to it because of that hydration that's built in so if you do have mature skin I think this is a really nice option to just kind of instantly like overall revamp your complexion like if your your complexion just is looking a little bit more dull a little bit more dry this is a really nice Foundation to kind of pop on your skin to get that instant result and that instant plumpness and like brightened and glowy effect to your skin I mean that's beautiful like that is a beautiful healthy skin looking Foundation I think it's the best way to describe it it makes your skin look like it's overall just very healthy and uh not too heavy it's like very very natural in that regard so love this Foundation I loved it back in the day I'm happy to see that the newly reformulated version is just as good I definitely definitely recommend this one for the reasons I just stated and I would definitely go back out and repurchase it it's a solid amazing Foundation from makeup forever so once again that's the reboot Foundation next up and also for $42 is the makeup by Mario surreal skin Foundation if you're not new to my channel you already probably know my thoughts on this foundation and you know when it first came out which was what over well over a year ago probably like almost two years ago at this point year and a half some something like that I wanted to love this foundation so bad so bad because if you know me you know that I also love majority of makeup by Mara's products I think he has amazing amazing products I'm I'm a big fan but like long story short I a big fan of what makeup by Mario puts out there so I was I was crushed I was crushed to see that this Foundation was just not going to work for me and I hate to even admit this to be quite honest I feel really bad but I ended up returning the one that I picked out for a couple reasons first of all it just did not work on my skin it just I tried to make it work I tried to let it lay down I tried to set it I tried to do all the things and I tried in so many different ways to make that work cuz I really like I said I wanted to make this work for me cuz I want I I love makeup by Mario it just did not work and I also had picked out a shade that was just a touch too light for me so it was a it was a bad combination right anyway Flash Forward we're going to try it again I'm excited to try it again even though I felt like I gave it a really solid go it's always good to revisit products it just it is you know it's still a popular Foundation a lot of people that I know still love it so let's try it out again I picked up a different shade this time thankfully I picked up 13 W the one that I picked up before was like 120 so so was like 12 Olive and it was just too light so the next shade up was 13 W so we're going to try it out again you know beautiful packaging makeup by Mario is really Sleek very modern very clean aesthetic packaging that I really love love the glass bottle love the silver love the pump let's try it out and let's see together if my thoughts have changed so I feel like I'm just not going to get a great match with makeup by Mario for some reason cuz this is like the like I said this is the next shade up in terms of the shade range okay it's still not a good color match at all maybe I should have gone back to that 12 because at least that was a better undertone cuz it's more of an olive undertone this is very orange for a warm it's very it's definitely leaning very orange on the warm scale like it's very warm very very warm all right so this actually looks better though in terms of like the way it's blending onto my skin we're going to ignore the shade I picked out a bad one again but H honestly I just feel like there's not enough Shades to choose from in this Foundation like they're just not it's very very limiting to me and not what I would expect from Makeup by Mario you know I I just feel like he would include way more shades to choose from I just felt very like I was choosing between no good options you know I was like choosing the Lesser evil of out of the options that I was given and just sucks to be honest yeah so this shade is terrible on me it's absolutely terrible and honestly I think I actually might return this one too because I can't even make the shade work and I I I just feel very discouraged cuz like there's no other good option as far as the shade goes for me so little disappointing but I will say the way it's going on the way it looks is better than I remember and better than it was before I don't know if maybe it's something been changed who knows it's been a minute since I've tried this Foundation needless to say I feel like you know my thoughts were and my thoughts are are pretty much still the same in terms of like who it's for I don't think this is a good foundation for oily skin types I really don't because it doesn't dry down on your skin and that's a problem when you have oily skin you don't want it to slip and move around throughout the day you want products actually going to be able to set and dry down because you want them to have that long lasting effect right and when you're producing oil throughout the day if you're if you have true oily skin then this kind of formula and this type of finish is just not going to be the most convenient to wear cuz you're going to be struggling to keep it on and keep it looking good throughout the day so I don't think it's good for oily skin types for normal combination and mature skin I think this would be it's not going to be a bad formula at all my biggest thing with this formula was how it wore throughout the day it just didn't wear well and that was another reason why I ended up returning it was it just didn't have a really good wear time it looked good initially like it looks beautiful initially right now color aside initially it looks beautiful I look like I just have beautiful healthy luminous hydrated skin and I love it but I just know how it wears and I could tell you that I I wore it for days and days and I wore it all day long to see how it wore throughout the day and it just doesn't perform in terms of longevity so for that reason I don't recommend it I don't hate it I just don't think it's it's like the best formula on the market I'm sad to say so would I go back out and repurchase it I wouldn't and it it pains me to say it but once again that is the makeup by Mario surreal skin Foundation next up we have one for $42 it is from Too Faced and it's actually a formula that I've been wanting to try for quite some time I have a few people that I know who are makeup enthusiasts and lovers like me and they love this formula so I'm really excited to try it for that reason alone it is the Too Faced Born This Way healthy glow SPF 30 moisturizing skin tint now the reason why I did get this is because supposedly it offers a lot more coverage than a tint like an actual skin tint and it's supposed to be like more of a lightweight version of their classic Born This Way foundation so we're going to try it out I picked up the shade warm nude I'm excited to try it now do I wish they had more shades available 100% do they need to work on it still to this day too fac still needs to work on their shade range and expand it but we'll let it go for now and we're going to try it out and see how the formula is what it looks like on and how it Blends and all those good things so I'm going to shake this first cuz this is thinner it's quite thin wow love the packaging it reminds me it's exactly like the Dior backstage face and body so cute just with a different cap so I love that kind of packaging especially if you're a makeup artist traveling with like rubber or plastic squeezy tubes are just they're the epitome of easy like easy access easy they're not going to break they're not going to make a mess in your kit they're just amazing now this is supposed to be a 24-hour wear it's vegan it's UVA UVB protection all day hydration and yeah that's it let's try it out okay I'm going to pour some on the top of my hand doesn't smell like anything so there's no fragrance to it it's definitely more runny I'm going to apply this with my N7 oh wow okay I can see why people like this already I can already see why people like this formula this wow I mean first two swipes had me beautiful even coverage like wow there is no patchiness in this formula Blends so easy feels so nice on my skin oh my gosh I can't even tell you how nice this feels on my skin it honestly feels like nothing it's very very thin very lightweight does it say it's lightweight no but wow this is really nice Too Faced did a good job of this they really did that's beautiful like I could stop blending right now and call it a day the way that blended into my skin was so quick I mean it literally melted into my skin with just all I had to do was like tap tap tap tap tap done like that's like that's truly what I call minimal effort I love that it's supposed to be a longwearing like more natural finish product like usually you don't get a lot of wear time with products that are more of like skin tint or like light coverage or more you know natural coverage products they don't tend to be the longest wearing so I like that it's kind of a combo of both that's yet to be seen obviously I'm just trying this out for a few minutes of this video and then I'm taking it off but you will definitely see me wearing this in future videos cuz the way that looks on my skin it feels like my skin but better like that's something that I always look for with a foundation it looks like my skin it looks healthy it looks glowy it just looks even and Flawless like in a really nice natural way so coverage is really nice I do feel like you can build up the coverage on this and it will blend yeah it's definitely lay nice wow it's almost kind of set down a bit too it's kind of dried down a little bit which I like and that's probably the longwear aspect of it that's coming through but finish is beautiful I think I'd recommend this for anyone I can't imagine anyone not liking this formula honestly so whether you're oily dry combo young mature I mean especially I feel like mature skin would just love this formula this feels so incredibly nice price point is is totally fine it's not that bad of a price point at all I love the packaging I just think this is again so it's one of my favorite packagings in existence for makeup coverage is Beautiful Finish is beautiful the way it Blends on is gorgeous they do need to expand their shade range like I mentioned earlier but other than that would I recommend this product 100% and would I go back out and purchase more yes this is so so beautiful so that is the Too Faced Born This Way healthy glow Foundation this next one is also $42 it also comes in a squeezy rubberized uh container this is the Nars soft matte foundation I believe this is a full coverage or medium to full coverage Foundation the shade is not going to be perfect for me but we're going to try it on anyway it's just one that I had in my makeup collection so it was one less Foundation I had to buy for this video but let's try it out I haven't worn this foundation in quite some time so my thoughts are going to be I'll need to refresh my thoughts on what I what I how I feel about this Foundation cuz it's been a minute since I've tried it so let's test it out I'm going to shake it first and squeeze some on the top of my hand that's why I way too much I do love the this like rubberized feeling to this package it's so fun it's like fun to play with it's like a stress reliever like you just like squeeze it it's really nice I'm going to apply this one with my N7 let's go for it so this is a very matte finish Foundation however I'm starting to remember how I felt about it it's it doesn't feel heavy which is always a plus like if it's a super matte foundation and it's somehow still not feeling heavy on your skin that's like such a win for any makeup brand to achieve I feel like it's something that's super hard to achieve when you're doing a full coverage mat but this really does give you it's almost like a filter it's like a very soft focused blurring feeling to it it's honestly very similar to the one siiz Beauty um and that one gives like a ton a ton of coverage for what it is too but this is just super matte I'd say A fullon medium to medium full coverage is what you're going to get with this one it's easy to work with it definitely Blends into your skin quick and easy like I didn't that was minimal effort and for a full coverage that's sometimes hard to achieve it's sometimes hard to achieve an easy blend with that kind of finish because it like the the texture of is usually thicker the opacity of it is it's full it's like a fully opaque shade that you're working with and those tend to be a little bit harder to blend in and make them look Flawless because if you don't blend them enough you can see through them in a way like you can see streakiness whereas like if you don't blend a more radiant or Luminous Finish Foundation they're more forgiving in terms of like the blend right so the fact that this is easily blending into my skin with minimal effort it's just that's a win right there coverage is like I said medium to full buildable it is a very very matte finish so I would not recommend this for someone who has dry skin or even combination dry skin I would recommend this for anyone who has normal skin normal to oily or very oily skin or anyone who just wants a full coverage that looks nice and smooth as long as you don't have super dry skin so again very easy to blend looks smooth really smooth over my pores uh it's not going to enhance any texture you have on your skin unless I will say unless you have very very dry skin you have dry texture then I will pick up on that so but if you have oily skin and textured oily skin I think this going to be a really nice smoothing and bluring Foundation to check out it's a really unique formula it's definitely more Niche to you know that specific person that wants those specific things so just keep that in mind I don't think this is a foundation for everyone for the reasons I mentioned earlier would I go back out and repurchase this one I would but it's not really something that I need that often especially as a makeup artist I I don't usually go for foundations like this cuz they're not as universally pleasing as like an Armani luminous silk or a Dior backstage face and body those are like the two Staples that I keep in my kit do I recommend it yes for anyone who is looking for a full coverage that wants a very matte finish and for anyone who has normal skin normal to oily or very oily this is a really great one to check out so once again that is the Nars soft matte foundation sticking with the $42 price range we have one from Huda Beauty it's the liquid foundation this is actually called and I didn't realize this until right now it's the F filter luminous matte foundation it's a full coverage Foundation luminous matte they don't that's that's not you can't they can't be both they can't be both so it's a little confusing that marketing term is a little confusing um I didn't even realize it was said luminous matte until like literally it looked to the very bottom of this but we're going to move on we're going to see what this actually looks like on is is it luminous is it matte could it somehow be both somehow we'll find out the shade that I'm going to put on is cheesecake it's 250 g standing for Golden I already shook it let's shake it a little bit more and let's try it out now I know the shade's a little too from what I remember it's been a minute since I've tried this but I want to say it's too dark for me we're going to find out again with the color what that looks like on I'm going to apply this with a 106 from BK Beauty has no scent to it that's nice okay all right the shade actually isn't that bad the shade's actually really nice I didn't realize that maybe I was thinking of a different shade that I had in a a little while ago like I think I had like graham cracker or something different in the past Blends out really easy for a full coverage that just Blended out very very quick very very easy very similar honestly to the Nars soft matte like the way it blended into my skin was really quick I'm going to put some on my chin and see what the coverage is like on my chin this is definitely a full coverage but it doesn't look like a heavy full coverage here's the thing so it's saying it's a luminous matte let's just call it a satin then you take luminous you take matte you're going to get something in between which is going to be a satin I'd say this is a really pretty satin to matte so satin but leaning matte full coverage Foundation I think depending on how you prep your skin if you prepped your skin with a lot of like you know serum and juicy moisturizer you could probably get it to be more of a true satin finish which would be nice depending on like what you're looking for if you're someone who has oily skin you might just love the way this sits on your skin and the finish that it gives if you're looking for a flawless full coverage this is definitely worth checking out and I feel like not enough people talk about this Foundation from Huda Beauty like this is a really great formula it's been around for a long time I remember when she first launched this years and years ago and it was just a really great full coverage Foundation but I feel like since then it's not really been talked about much so even though it's a full coverage I'm not losing like the liveliness of my skin I still feel like I have like some pretty like satin natural like skin-like qualities coming through the Foundation which is really good and really hard to get with the full coverage Foundation blend it on super easy it's very smooth in terms of like the finish of it it looks really smooth on my skin it's not emphasizing any texture or large pores I'd say this is good for anyone who has more oily skin more combination combination leaning dry and I think if you have dry skin as long as you're not severely dry you could definitely get away with wearing this Foundation just prep your skin accordingly if you have mature skin I I would still avoid this one because I think might look a little heavy and a little lifeless a little dull on mature skin so I would just avoid this one if you have mature skin but other than that I think this is a really great Foundation that is definitely worth checking out coverage is amazing Blends out super easy they have a really great shade range at Huda Beauty price point is totally fine the feeling of it feels really nice and lightweight for being a full coverage which is again very hard to achieve when I go back out and repurchase this one definitely do I recommend it definitely again as long as you're not mature skin you'll probably like this foundation so that is the Huda Beauty faux filter luminous matte foundation next up we have another one for $42 it's from kosas I've been wanting to try this foundation for a very long time so I'm really excited to try for this video it's the kosas revealer skin improving Foundation this has broadspectrum SPF 25 n we don't need it that's about it so let's shake it up first and try it out nice glass bottle packaging you know feels very Lux very nice I love the pump pump a little bit on the top of my hand and if I didn't mention so unfortunately I threw out the box and there's nowhere on it that says the shade a43 maybe I'll have to investigate and figure out what the shade is that I picked out because it's not saying it anywhere on the bottle that's a bummer wait for real maybe we'll just go with this it says a43 on the bottom maybe that's the shade and I just am mistaken I'm going to apply this with my N7 oo I like that texture it doesn't smell like anything so I don't think it has any fragrance in it oh yeah wow that is really pretty okay that feels really really nice on my skin right away it's blending in pretty easy I wouldn't say it's melting into my skin right away yeah okay it's not difficult to blend into my skin coverage is nice it's more of a light more of a light medium coverage but leaning more on like the light side I wonder if you could build this up let's take a little bit more and build it up okay yeah you can build it up yeah okay wow that's really pretty color I picked out whatever shade that is hopefully that's the shade that I just mentioned earlier on the bottom of it if it's not I'm lost as to what color this is but the shade that I picked out is matching me perfectly so I'm super excited about that that's awesome that's always a win cuz I get to actually use this product and wear it and have it be the right shade for me that's beautiful wow I mean very hydrating very luminous like very very dewy I should say it's a very dewy formula Foundation it feels really nice it feels really comfortable really moisturizing on my skin the coverage is nice for for more of a light medium if you're looking for a light medium coverage that you could kind of build up a bit then you might really like this one if you have dry skin or you're looking for like that drink of water kind of feeling to your foundation you're going to love love this Foundation like this gives you that I just drink a tall glass of water and like put some serums on my skin it's giving you that kind of feeling which is really nice especially in the cold months or especially if you just need it for your skin if you have dry skin you'll love the finish of this foundation and the feeling the feeling is really really really hydrating which feels nice like feels very very nice especially after those more matte full coverage foundations this feels incredibly comfortable on My Skin Blends out pretty easy like I said the coverage is really nice it's very consistent it's not patchy for being a glowy foundation it's definitely still look smooth on my skin it's not emphasizing any texture or pores I would recommend this foundation for anyone except for someone who has very severely oily skin I'd say skip it if you have oily skin because it's just going to look probably overly shiny and overly d on you but if you have combination oily skin combination dry very dry skin severely dry skin you probably will love this Foundation mature skin will definitely benefit from this type of formula cuz it just looks soft and radiant and just really healthy on your skin so I recommend this for anyone except for anyone who has more oily skin but it's a beautiful finish I would definitely go back out and repurchase it and I definitely recommend this one so once again that is the kosas revealer skin improving Foundation really pretty sticking to the 4 $2 price range for that you can get the kbd good apple full coverage serum Foundation I've been curious about this foundation for quite some time and I have never gone around to trying it so I'm really excited to try it for this video I had a very hard time with the shades I'm not going to lie the shade range was not good for this at all I felt like it was just very limiting especially with the undertones every single one it seemed like that I touched or swatched in store at Sephora was just too golden too warm for my even my complexion like I am a more warm golden Olive undertone complexion and these just seemed really really too yellow the ones that I touched anyway I I picked the one that I think would be the best but honestly I don't have the highest hopes for this shade that I picked out I picked up the shade medium 048 let's try it out okay first off gorgeous packaging I mean absolutely gorgeous packaging it is glass the way it's like embellished and like the clear plastic top it's a pump it looks like a perfume bottle like on your vanity like it's really just it had me at packaging at least that alone I I scored points with me for packaging so this claims to be a lightweight all day transfer resistant Foundation okay so that's good shake well let's shake it up and let's try it out o it's just so Lux feeling I'm going to pump out a little bit on my palette okay texture of it is actually for a full coverage it's pretty runny I like that that's very promising I might end up actually liking this Foundation so it is a serum it's marketed as a serum Foundation full coverage serum Foundation let's see how this feels on I'm going to apply it with my N7 H does this smell no there's no fragrance okay and the shade looks great I'm so relieved I could actually continue to use this one too I'm so happy I really did not have high hopes for the shade that I picked out I kind of gave up and was like okay oh well this is all I can do okay wow wow wow wow wow this Foundation is ex extremely impressive wow I'm sorry I know I keep saying that but I was not expecting to love this this is like I'm Blown Away how good this Foundation looks on it feels doesn't feel like tight doesn't feel like a heavy full coverage it feels like a serum based Foundation like but it has that more full coverage matte finish to it but it's not like a dull matte it's like a Sportline satin matte finish like it's not Dull it's not overly heavy looking on my skin I mean if you could feel this if you've tried this and you know the feeling you know what I'm talking about and you why I'm liking this so far please comment and leave me let me know let me know what your thoughts are I'm so curious this feels fantastic the way this blended into my skin was so quick and easy I'm shocked it like literally melted into my skin I feel so Flawless right now it Blended in so easy the coverage is beautiful like for full coverage this looks so skinlike and so beautiful I feel like it doesn't even look like I have a full coverage on it just looks like I have really really Flawless skin wow 10 out of 10 the video is done I'm I'm done I'm I'm not even going to try the rest of these foundations like this one is so showstopping I'm shocked how much I love this Foundation um and I picked out a great shade I'm so relieved I recommend this uh 10 out of 10 like literally I recommend this for anyone like if you have even if you don't want that full coverage like you don't even need to use that much just use like a little bit and manipulate it and just do like a small tiny pump or half a pump spread it all over and you'll get like a nice lighter amount of coverage I think even if you have uh dry skin you could definitely use this one it has that serum quality to it it's a showstopper it's honestly a showstopper I recommend this for anyone even mature skin honestly if you have mature skin and you want a full coverage this is the one to check out I never I don't think I've ever recommended a full coverage for mature skin until now literally and that's saying a lot this Foundation has blown me away like absolutely blown me away worth every penny was is it $42 yeah $42 amazing packaging feels amazing on my skin literally checks every single box it's probably one of the most beautiful if not beautiful like the most beautiful full coverage Foundation I've ever tried in my life like look at that that is just stunning would I go back out repurchase this oh yes I will for sure and I'm going to be using this and wearing this so get ready to see it more on my channel cuz it will be there for sure the only complete that I had was I I had a difficult time picking out shade but it turns out that I picked the most perfect shade for myself the price is great everything's great everything's great I think they need to get more shades to be honest but other than that this is a stand out standout 10 out of 10 would recommend this one so once again this is the kbd full coverage serum Foundation next up for $42 you can get the KVD good apple Foundation this is a skin perfecting Foundation balm I picked up the shade medium 042 let's try it out I've only ever H all right here's the thing I picked this up in store again Limited stock in the shades that were available so I did the best I could but I have I really have no hope for this matching me unless it's some unless it magically shears out and turns lighter so just just a for warning it's going to look too dark on me now I have used this in the past I've tried it gosh I want to say like four years ago when it first came out but I know I wasn't like thrilled with it but let's try it out again things could change who knows my thoughts could be completely different I do like the packaging I have to say I like this I love the ornate like detailed packaging I love that it's see-through and just you could see it quick and easily it's actually very like lightweight you know easy to travel with so just a little note on the on the packaging I I actually really enjoy the packaging now with creamier thicker products like this I remember it being really thick but maybe it's changed I don't know it says it's a balm but I remember it being like really thick and kind of pasty let's just get into it I'm going to apply with my N17 brush the lighter fiber side I'm going to swipe into it okay no fragrance all right hm H why did I hate this so much this is actually really pretty like as long as you don't apply too much I mean depending on what kind of coverage you want you can definitely customize it like granted this is it's too dark it's not as dark as I thought it was going to be which is a relief for me I feel like I I might be able to make this work to be quite honest but the way it Blends out is really it's really nice it's really nice why did I not like this so much cuz I'm going to be honest with you now I really did not like this when I first tried it I really was like this is just awful I remember really disliking it but now I'm like why why did I not like it so much this is look it that's done it's Blended it's easy it looks incredibly smooth um and it doesn't feel heavy at all like you would look at this and you think this is going to feel heavy it's going to feel cakey it's going to feel like maybe like theatrical makeup like that's really what I I thought it felt like I I don't know what I was thinking this is a really nice formula this I'm I'm shocked to hear myself saying this out loud I really am to be honest cuz I had such a bad first impression but there's no denying that this looks gorgeous like this looks Flawless it looks so smooth it feels incredibly lightweight it has a very like silky feeling to it I feel like I do feel like anyone could wear this I do it's not so thick that it would settle into like fine lines and you know increase the look of them I think this is really good for anyone I think this is like universally pleasing uh I can't stop touch it cuz it feels so silky on my skin what that's absolutely stunning I have to be really I I'm going to admit when I'm wrong I am was so wrong I don't know if they reformulated I don't know if something changed in those couple years since I've tried it but this looks beautiful I'm Blown Away the blendability is super easy I mean I swiped it on I went dot dot dot and then I'm done like I I really only you saw I swiped like the tiniest bit on my brush like I barely made a dent and okay so a little bit goes long way with that said a little bit goes a very long way it feels so lightweight and so beautiful and I feel like I put an instant like filter on my skin like I swiped a filter on and I look very smooth very airbrushed I think this would be good for anyone I really do I think this would be a great great foundation for anyone as long as you're looking for more of a medium to full coverage then I think it's a great a great formula I'm shocked I really like this I I I actually love this to be honest dare I say I love this Foundation you're going to see me wearing this and I think I can make the shade work so that's always a plus thankfully I don't to go out and buy another one but on that note what would I go back out and repurchase this yes I would was I totally wrong in my first oppression 100% I was completely wrong I highly recommend this one this is beautiful but again I recommend for anyone who's not looking for like a lightweight natural coverage but if you're looking for a lightweight feeling with a medium to full coverage effect this is the go-to I mean I would definitely try this out for sure uh beautiful wow I could I could keep talking about this but I should really stop once again that is the kbd good apple Foundation beautiful next up we have one for $43 if you know you know you know how much I love this Foundation it is the newly reformulated Dior backstage face and body I Rave about this Foundation I use it on a regular basis it is one that I rely on heavily as both a pro makeup artist and just for me personally it's one of the first foundations that I grab when I'm traveling for myself like I will grab this above almost anything else because it's plastic so it's not going to break or explode when I'm you know up in the air traveling or flying or my luggage being like tossed around it's it's very travel friendly in so many ways but also it's just easy in general because it's a Twist Off cap it's a squeeze tube and if you're a makeup artist these are just so easy to work with in your kit like I mentioned earlier with the denessa myx and the Too Faced a squeezy bottle that's a plastic container is just so efficient and so easy for makeup Arts I love it for that reason alone formula wise let me show you what it looks like on in case you've missed it in case you're new to my channel and you haven't seen me talk about this Foundation or Rave about it I Rave about it all the time it's just one of my all-time favorite foundations now they did reformulate it and it has more skincare ingredients in it now like since they switched out the formula it's more skin focused it has all those skincare ingredients in it and with that it has more of a satin to glowy finish whereas the old formula was like a satin matte so the Finish is different but the wear time is the same it's a very longwearing formula it's watery resistant it's one that I rely on heavily in my Pro kit for so many reasons first of all they have an incredible shade range incredible shade range and they really nail their undertones their undertones are done so well like I can rely on them to be like true undertones so if I grab an N I know it's going to actually be a neutral it's not going to be yellow so their undertones are really just spot-on they did an incredible job with their shade range like I said it's super extensive there's something for everyone at Dior which don't get me starting on that again but the way this just Blends into your skin is butter it's literally like butter it's a buttery satiny silky texture on your skin it is extremely longwearing and for the new formulation to be just as good if not better than the old formulation says a lot I think they did such a great job and I've heard a couple mix things about it but I think it also comes down to like your personal preference and to me I think they did a really fantastic job with the reformulation I think it feels and looks just as good but in a slightly different way so and that's fine they they changed a little bit they actually add a few extra Shades to their already expansive shade range which was even better and great for them to do that but I just think this is one of the best foundations on the market for everyone there's not one person that I don't recommend this Foundation to and there's that one person that I won't use this on in my Pro kit and that says everything thing for me if I'm able to use a foundation on everyone that sits in my chair that I've never met before and I can rely on it to work for anyone that says everything right there so blendability spoton super easy very user friendly if you're a beginner this is a really easy Foundation to work with if you're a beginner makeup artist this is a really easy Foundation to work with on your clients and it's a really really easy formula and shade range to color match your clients and also bonus it is so easy to mix and customize the shades if you're a pro makeup artist if you just get a few of these Shades and you get a few different undertones these are so easy to work with and to mix in your kit so you don't need to actually buy every single shade just buy a few of each undertone and each like depth and intensity of tone and you're good to go can't speak highly enough of this product a little bit goes a long way it's very buildable easy to work with it just checks all the boxes I recommend this literally for anyone dry skin normal combo severely dry dry mature young doesn't matter I put this on everyone and I love it so would I go back out and repurchase it yes I do it all the time I frequently buy this and stock up in my kit usually when Sephora has their big savings events I'll go pick up like a few extras for my kit and that's when I usually buy it but anyway it's a Gorgeous foundation highly recommend it if you have not tried the Dior backstage face and body I'm not sure what you're waiting for next up we have one for $44 and for $44 you can get the Bare Minerals original pure serum Foundation it's a radiant natural liquid foundation has broad spectrum SPF 20 and I picked out the shade light warm 2.5 it's vegan cruelty-free paraben free for Malahide free I'm not even going to list all these things cuz these are like non-negotiables uh dermatologist tested clean without compromising performance clinically tested effortlessly enhance your natural beauty with a feather light naturally radiant finish this pure serum infused Foundation helps to improve Skin's tone and smooth Skin's texture over time says who but um ideal for all skin types even the most sensitive shake well before applying all right let's try this out I have not ever tried this nice glass bottle feels nice you can see the formula is separating right here so let's definitely shake it like it says oh that's very liquidy it's a very liquidy Foundation okay I think I got it mixed up enough has a pump we're going to do a couple pumps okay that's very liquidy I'm going to hold my hand UPR right because it's it's very very liquidy let's apply this with a clean N7 there's like a h maybe there's not fragrance I thought I was smelling like a hint of fragrance ooh this is very very watery wow wow wow okay this is very very watery shake well before applying I definitely did that it's definitely radiant oh I think I applied just way too much to be honest I'm going to try to buff it out I need to pick some of this product up with my 106 I'm going use this almost like a beauty blender to pick up excess product cuz I just put way too much on okay let's go back to it it's just so streaky like it just doesn't all right let's get in there and let's feel this let's actually feel this this feels it feels oily yeah this has like um I understand it's supposed to be you know like a serum pure serum okay so it's supposed to feel like a serum and it does it feels like a serum but it just feels frustrating like I it's just moving around on my face and not doing anything like it's just constantly moving you know even like and I'm not going to grab a beauty sponge to apply this because it's just not my preferred method and I you know you should be able to blend out a foundation with with anything with any tool when you really think about it right a good foundation is going to blend on to your skin with whatever tool you use but I'm having a hard time even just patting it in with my fingers yeah this is so streaky coverage is streaky everything about this is very streaky I can't get it to look smooth I just can't get it to look smooth I mean no this is not good this is just the most frustrating Foundation I think I've ever tried on I mean I I this is never going to dry down my skin this is like one of those foundations that never dries down and it just sits on top of your skin in a really uncomfortable and very unflattering way like look at this let's try some uping together okay let's go like for the extreme yep it's still wet that's really frustrating I'm sorry that's just really frustrating I think you know here's the thing it's like has all these claims it's supposed to make your skin look better over time and it's a serum base product and all these things and this is where it goes back to like my belief with makeup is you shouldn't be looking to for makeup to solve your skin issues or concern so like for example if you have really dehydrated skin and you need to you want to like give it hydration all those things don't rely on your foundation to give you that hydration it's it's a great added benefit and effect but it's too much in this product there's just it's like there's a fine line between having nice ingredients in a foundation where it feels really great on your skin and helps to like give you additional benefits on top of your skin care not in place this feels like to me like they just went overboard with the skincare ingredients the serums whatever is in this product and the effect is a foundation that just doesn't perform it's not drying down it's just literally sliding off my skin like look at that look at that like literally full swipes of this comes off my fingers that's really frustrating that's not an ideal product to work with for anyone I don't care if you have like the driest skin treat your skin prior you're always going to get the best results and I talk about this a lot so I will spare you like the full in-depth reasons behind this but treat your skin prior and then find a formulation that is good for your skin type like if you have dry skin but don't look for something to like fully replace what the benefit of a skincare routine and taking care of your skin like that kind of Maintenance will do right I don't recommend this I don't recommend this for anyone for the reasons I I stated I think this is a really frustrating formula that just misses the mark yeah I mean $44 that's not cheap that is a really expensive Foundation it's like very it's just dare I say like greasy you know it feels like very greasy on my skin it's not comfortable now would I go back out and repurchase this definitely not I say skip this one from Bare Minerals I'm sorry so again that's the Bare Minerals original pure serum Foundation also for $44 you can get the Clinique Even Better clinical serum foundation so this has like some very similar claims as the Bare Minerals one it's a serum based Foundation supposed to enhance your Skin's overall appearance complexion um when you use it over time I picked out the shade w46 it's golden neutral let's see what this looks like on so I I do like that it says this there's a label on top of this it's really hard to read it cuz it's tiny handwriting but it says dry combination to oily 2 three 4 huh what's that mean dry combination to oily 2 three 4 what what I don't understand what what am I missing here I don't understand okay even better clinical serum Foundation broad spectrum SPF 25 all right I don't know what that means I don't know understand the whole dry combination to oily 2 three 4 are they talking about they're not talking about Shades I don't get it all right let's move on from that there's a lot of things back here the the full list of ingredients is in the back so that's good start it on cute packaging I I'm a really big fan of this packaging I like the shape of it it's cute let's shake it first this is liquidy and let's hope for the best H also a cute pump that's adorable texture like a medium density it's not super runny it's not super thick so that's that's always nice let's grab a clean N7 and let's try it out no fragrance that's always good I don't mind it but I know a lot of people do so that's why I'm pointed it out all right this feels so much better than the last one and you know again it has like very similar clim this is blending into my skin very easy I could tell right away look at that that is much better wow this is what the Bare Minerals was probably trying to be and failed to achieve this feels great wow the color is a little off that I chose it happens but the feeling of this is really nice I mean look at that minimal effort it Blended out really nice it looks really smooth I mean that has a gorgeous finish it's a it's more of like a it's not super glowy I will say that it's more of like a true Satin finish which I love s finishes I think they are the most universally flattering finishes you could look for for a foundation for all skin types I think satins if you're ever in doubt go for a satin and you will always be happy with a satin finish foundation so to me this looks like a beautiful perfect skin-like satin finish the coverage is really nice let's build it up a touch to see like what it does that's a buildable coverage right there that built up very quick very easy it's not patchy it looks incredibly SM smooth I mean that looks beautiful I was not expecting to be so uh blown away by this Foundation I don't know why but it's really wow I mean that looks gorgeous I feel like I have just unbelievably smooth Flawless skin minimal effort I mean there's no texture there's there's just minimal effort to apply it and to blend it out properly without looking streaky it just blend it out in 2 seconds I really did it Blended out so quick and so easy the Finish is gorgeous like I said it's that beautiful Satin skin-like finish it's buildable coverage that is also great I like this so much I think this is a beautiful standout Foundation like way to go Clinique it feels so nice on my skin too it feels very lightweight I'm very curious how it's going to wear throughout the day so I'll definitely keep you posted I'll continue to wear the foundations throughout this video that I've tried on and I'll keep you poting on my thoughts cuz obviously these are again these are first impressions for the most part unless I've tried these formulas in the past but overall highly recommend this one I think this would be good for all skin types and all skin ages I don't care what age your skin is what your skin type is I think anybody could wear this and if you're looking for a medium to buildable coverage this is definitely one to check out it's gorgeous I mean that's absolutely beautiful I would go back out and repurchase this and I highly recommend it so once again that is a Clinique Even Better clinical serum Foundation it's gorgeous okay next up it's $45 it's house Labs you know I love this foundation and again if you're not new to my Channel or if you seen any of my previous videos you probably already know how much I love this foundation and the reasons why but if you are new here let me tell you why this Foundation is magical and why you should definitely definitely try it so it's $45 it's a triclone skin tech Foundation I have the shade 230 light medium cool quick little Side Story just like the Anastasia Beverly Hills and just like MAC Cosmetics their undertones are the opposite so again if you are someone who has an actual cool undertone just know the in- house you will not be a cool undertone in their formula you'll be the opposite so something to keep in mind now that we've put that disclaimer out there let me show you what this looks like on I'm going to start with one pump of this Foundation now this Foundation is a medium to buildable coverage so one coat all over is a nice beautiful skin-like medium coverage but you can definitely build this up to be a full coverage Foundation it builds incredibly well so let me just get this over with I love this foundation so so much okay so let's talk about the blend for first it Blends into your skin so quick so easy I mean look at that that's already like in my skin it's like blended into my skin it's it's minimal effort it is a great great solid choice if you have any skin type so I recommend this Foundation if you are dry if you are normal if you're oily if you're somewhere in between combination it doesn't matter I believe this Foundation honestly works for any skin type and any skin age so mature can definitely wear this Foundation 100% has a very beautiful smoothing quality to it but above all what I think makes this foundation so universally flattering is the finish it has a beautiful skin-like finish that anybody can wear anybody will appreciate anybody could find useful not only that there's a huge huge shade range to choose from so house Labs really followed in suit with Fenty Beauty and they really knocked it out of the park in terms of their shade range their shade range is quite epic I mean it's it's almost overwhelming it is such a great great shade range so it's definitely a shade for everyone the only problem I have with this Foundation is it is difficult to shade match because the way they labeled their whole color system it's a little tricky so that's the only complaint that I have about this Foundation if I had to pick it apart that's the only thing but it has nothing to do with the formula it has nothing to do with the performance all of the important things about this Foundation like how it wears what it looks like on your skin how well it works on your skin how long it lasts how it's amazing for any skin type or skin age that is really truly what's most important the other thing I can get past but it is a little bit of a bummer it's definitely like something that I hear on a regular basis people reach out to me and they're like do you have any tips on how to match or shade match the house laps foundation and I do have plenty of tips and I have a lot of them in actually a specific YouTube video on how to color match your skin for foundation so if you have questions check that out that video is very very helpful but again back to the foundation look at that coverage look at that finish it's so satin but it's so skin-like it's like a perfect skin-like satin finish I just I mean I can't recommend enough honestly it just checks every single box for a newer formula I think that I think it's rare for like newer formulas to come on the market that just are amazing to be honest like this is the first New Foundation that has just really truly blown me away in every single aspect so $45 in my opinion worth every penny love the packaging love the bottle love the shape it's just very Luxe it's a little bit on the heavy side I'm just going to point that out there love that it's a pump to me you need just one pump for one wholesale your face so two pumps all over will give you a really great medium to full coverage I recommend this for anyone like I said would I go back out and repurchase this yes a thousand times I would repurchase it and I will recommend it to anyone who will listen to me so once again that is the Beautiful skin-like Flawless house Labs triclone skin tech Foundation you have to try this Foundation next up we have another one for $45 this is from Makeup Forever it's the HD skin now this is a reformulation of an original old school formula that I used to actually love and use on a regular basis when I was a bridal makeup artist way back in the day the original Makeup Forever HD foundation was a staple in my kit in fact it was a staple in every single makeup artist that I was that I knew and was friends with back in the day we all wore this Foundation we all used it we all relied on it the shade range was incredible there's a shade for anyone it was easy to mix it was easy to blend it was just a perfect Foundation if you want a longwear full coverage that photographed amazing like that was the foundation nothing beat it so they did reformulate it the old one is gone tears sad because it was really like a beautiful foundation for all the reasons I just listed so this is the new reformulation without further Ado I am going to shake it and then we're going to try it and you know I have to say I don't love it as much as I love the original one I just don't I want to love it cuz I love that other one so much but it just is not there's something about it that just doesn't suit what I like and like what I want but I know a ton of people that love this foundation so it's kind of mixed I'm going to pump out let's start with like two very small pumps the shade that I'm going to put on is 2 y20 and I'm going to blend this on with my BK Beauty N7 this is a highdefinition found Foundation it is meant to photograph extremely well it's meant to give you a very airbrush very Flawless look to your skin so if you have any imperfections if you have any texture things like that if you are being photographed or if you're on camera if you're going to be in harsh lighting things like that at night taking flash photography any of those uh scenarios an HD foundation is what you want to look for now this is still high performing it's still a full coverage it's still very easy to blend on still all those things that the original one was um and it still gives you that Flawless finish I'm actually going to pump out one more pump I think I just didn't to do enough it's still all those things there's just something about the way it wears throughout the day that just doesn't look amazing there's just I can't quite pinpoint it but there's just something kind of missing from the wear and like how it looks as it wears throughout the day cuz initially when you put it on it looks beautiful and I don't know if it's just my skin that just doesn't love it and it's a personal preference cuz a again a lot of people love the new reformulation I just wish they didn't reformulate it long story short I wish they had not touched it and I wish they left the formula alone it's still very very similar it's still very close it's just missing something in my opinion and if you feel the same way comment below let me know what your thoughts are either way cuz I'm still so torn of if I like it or not that I could be I feel like I could be swayed either way at this point does that make sense but let's talk about the coverage the coverage is Flawless full well it's medium to full I should say you could definitely start out making it a medium depending on how many layers or how many pumps you apply to your skin but you could build it up to be quite the full coverage so blendability is good coverage is phenomenal the way it looks on your skin it looks beautiful the texture of it is really nice the Finish is really beautiful especially for more medium to full coverage it's a really beautiful finish my only thing if I had to pick on it is I don't love the way it looks after X amount of hours of wearing it throughout the day and that's just it could just be my skin and that could just be personal to me and you might not have that experience but all in all I will say to conclude I think this is a really great Foundation still even though I don't love the way it looks throughout the day on myself I still think it's a really solid pick if you're looking for something that's high performing that's smoothing that is high definition and that is full coverage or at least medium to buildable full coverage then I think this is a really great option they do have a great shade range to choose from and that's always ideal when you're looking for a foundation so do I recommend this Foundation I do I recommend it for anyone who's looking for a medium to full coverage or at least a medium to buildable coverage Foundation that is high performing and again meant to be great for on camera purposes this is a really great option to choose from or to look into I don't necessarily recommend this for mature skin because I think it could have a heavier appearance on mature skin I think if you're dry skin make sure you prep your skin accordingly I'm torn but I if I had to choose I would say yes I would definitely go back out and repurchase it just to keep given it a shot because it is a beautiful Foundation but those are my thoughts on the makeup forever HD skin Foundation moving up to $46 we have the born this way this is the undetectable medium to full coverage Foundation it says it's oilfree it has coconut water in it it has Alpine Rose it has hyaluronic acid it's hydrating longwearing photo friendly non-mitogenic it's supposed to blur perfect and give a natural coverage interesting lots of claims going on back here very interesting let's try it out I I've never actually tried this foundation on myself I've only ever played with a client's one that they had in their possession just cuz I was curious but never actually worn this on myself I did pick up the shade warm nude now this Foundation is beyond popular people love this Foundation they Rave about it I know tons of makeup artists that use this heavily in their makeup kit my biggest thing about this Foundation is not to sound like a broken record the shade range sucks it sucks the shade range is not it's not inclusive it's not broad enough it is super limited and their undertones are especially limiting this Foundation I noticed like when I was going to pick out the right shade for this video I noticed that all the shades seem to really run heavily on the golden warm undertone side like even if it was like claiming to be a neutral it swatched very yellow and very golden so that's my biggest thing too is like the undertones are just very they're very difficult and they're very challenging it's very hard you'll be hard pressed to find a neutral or a cool tone undertone with Too Faced so now that I got that out of the way we're going to shake it we're going to try it we're going to see how it Blends on we're going to see what it looks like on I do like the the bottle I like the glass bottle I like the packaging the packaging is really pretty you know I'm a sucker for packaging so I have to mention that let's do about pump and a half to start and let's apply this with a clean 106 brush from BK Beauty okay shade is promising the shade doesn't look like it's going to be overly warm on me so that actually is good maybe it was just the lighting in Sephora that was just difficult to tell so far it's blending on my skin pretty easy pretty easy this brush helps though I mean this brush will like knock anything on your skin super quick super easy now I think there's a little bit of like a there's a bit of patchiness going on like it Blends easy to some degree but there's still like you're left with like some patchiness throughout interesting okay so the blend isn't that easy I will say that like once you work it and you blend it you blend it the patches go away but it's not I wouldn't say it's the quickest most easiest application so if you're a beginner or you just don't want to take a lot of time to have to blend the foundation onto your skin you want to be like quick more streamlined more easy something that melts into your skin easier this is not going to be the one for you I can just tell you that right away but overall once it's Blended on my skin it looks really nice it's uh definitely more of a medium to full coverage like it says the finish of it is nice too like I will say it looks like more of a natural skin-like finish and for being a medium to full coverage that's also very hard to achieve I feel like it does give a nice smoothing effect to my skin the feeling is really nice too it doesn't feel like a heavy full coverage Foundation that's definitely a plus the only concern I have is the shade range the undertones it's not the easiest to blend on aside from those things it's it looks really beautiful it looks definitely very beautiful is it scented no okay there's no fragrance that's nice and you might definitely see me wearing this when I want want a full coverage smooth looking finish to my skin it's pretty and the color actually works really well on my skin tone so that is a win for me I like this a lot I think this is a really pretty Foundation I could see where the hype lies with this I recommend this for anyone who's looking for a natural finish full coverage anyone who has more oily skin combo dry I think that anyone can wear this I think that if you have mature skin you could definitely wear this as well cuz it doesn't look like it's going to be a heavy full coverage looks like a very skin-like natural finish but with coverage so hey if you have mature skin you want a full coverage it looks nice and skin-like definitely worth checking this one out for sure so would I recommend it yes I would if you can get past the undertones and the shade range I recommend it would I go back out and repurchase it I think I actually would I really do even though I'm annoyed with the shade range and all those things and yeah I think you'll definitely see me wearing this more often on my channel and on Instagram and I'll be wearing it I'll be getting my money's worth for sure so once again that is the Too Faced Born This Way Foundation next up we have one for $47 it's a old favorite of mine I have to tell you I used this for so many years in my professional makeup kit and I don't know why I took it out so one of those foundations that when I when I try it again and I play with it and I put apply it I'm always like why did I stop using it it is like such it's one of the probably the prettiest foundations on the market period it's just a great one it is the Nars sheer glow Foundation if you have not tried this one you're definitely missing out so let's try it again I haven't used this in maybe 3 years I'd say at the max was probably the last time I had this in my possession but it's back I picked up the shade 1.2 Patagonia so let's try this out now the one thing about Nars is their Foundation Shades run heavily on the warm golden side so it's your little hard press with Nars to find like a true neutral or especially a true cool tone that's almost impossible well to be quite honest and but I love Nars I love their formulations I think they have incredible formula foundations I mean they're amazing formulas this was a favorite for so so long my biggest complaint that I'm remembering about this Foundation is you had to buy the pump separate and that's just like you know if you're already spending $47 on a foundation that's not cheap that is not cheap to me it's like that additional add-on is really unnecessary it's a really outdated thing and I wish they would have updated their because all the other foundations from Nars have a pump to them right so I wish they would have updated the shear glow to have a pump built in like save people money like who wants to spend an extra eight or 10 or 12 whatever however much the pumps already you have to buy separate it's not fair in my opinion at all so without the pump it is a very messy pore okay and you know what I'm what H all right I'm going to do this okay now it's not the most messy pore initially but as you use it it gets more and more messy if you don't go out and buy those pumps what I used to do was just basically pour these into squeezy bottles when I had them in my Pro kit and that obviously works as well but you know it just like I said if people are buying your foundation it's already costing a pretty penny just give them a pump you know like no nobody wants to pour their Foundation onto like their hand or their face onto their clothes whatever I digress I'm going to apply this with the N7 and let's talk about how beautiful this Foundation is like this is God this was one of my all-time favorite foundations I again I don't know why I stopped using it because the the way this looks on your skin is absolutely Flawless it gives great coverage it's more of a medium to of course Very buildable coverage and it just looks like healthy natural skin has a very beautiful skin-like quality to it it Blends really quick really easy like it's already looking so gorgeous on I'm happy that I picked out this shade I think I used to try to make like a different shade work back in the day on my myself I don't know why but yeah pagonia looks really good on me happy to report that it does look more neutral but again like I said most of their foundations they lean heavily on the warm golden side so just something to keep in mind now this Foundation is one of those foundations that really will transform your skin to looking super healthy and super glowy like very just Flawless and healthy looking is like the best way I could describe this Foundation it just I mean look at that it's just a beautiful Foundation the other thing that I loved about it and the reason why I kept it my Pro kit for so so many years is it works on all skin types so whether you have oily skin combo dry young mature if you need a full coverage I could still achieve a full coverage with this Foundation by just building it up you could sheare it out to be much less than what this is right now so it's very very versatile in that regard but it's also really longwearing so like it's very high performance so again if you if you work long hours if you work all day and you want a foundation that's going to look really beautiful for an extended period of time but also without feeling heavy then this Foundation you should absolutely check out it is a gorgeous gorgeous foundation so what I recommend this one yes like I said I literally recommend this one for anyone for anyone my biggest complaint is the pump issue but if you can get past that this is a an incredible Foundation that will never disappoint you in my opinion I'd be shocked to hear that you don't like this Foundation anyone who's ever tried I feel like always loves this Foundation it just it will not let you down and would I go back out and repurchase it yes I have for years and years years and years I probably invested thousands of dollars into the Nars Shear glow Foundation at this point so look at that I mean this speaks for itself it is absolutely Flawless I'm actually so thrilled right now to have this back in my Personal Collection because I haven't had one for me personally in probably like close to 8 years it's been so long I've always had in my Pro kit so happy to have you back Nar shlow I missed you so that once again is the nar's shear glow Foundation an absolute must try next up is also $47 it's from chaso it is the chaso Synchro skin radiant lifting Foundation this has broadspectrum 30 in it full disclosure I love this Foundation I've used it for many many years I've loved it for many years it's a beautiful Foundation chaso does skin and complexion products really well so glass bottle very Luxe one thing I love about this first I love the has a pump obviously for reasons that you you already know so you shake this really well before using so let me shake it really quick and then it does say on the back twist cap to unlock and lock pump that's what I actually love about this is the fact that it has a lock to it so when you twist it if you twist it facing forward it locks a pump so let's say you're like throwing this in your makeup bag no matter how many things are like around it pushing into it if it's locked you won't get that that spill like the foundation won't leak out or pump out when you don't want it to if you twist it back the other way that's when you could pump it out Let's do let's do like two light pumps the only thing thing I don't like is you're left with this and unless you want to get that on other products you have to kind of wipe it off before you like store it in a makeup bag with other products those are not the biggest issues right so let's move on I'm going to apply this with my N7 there's like a subtle hint of like like a fragrance but not like an intentional fragrance I think it's probably like some of the ingredients are probably like lending that that hint of a scent to it now this Foundation is just when when I tell you this Foundation gives you like the most juicy glowy healthy look to your skin look at that and I know I need to blend in more but like just with minimal blending look at that that's just gorgeous I mean what more could you ask for in a really well formulated High more high-end found this is definitely more of a high-end Foundation this just feels like incredible on your skin it feels absolutely incredible the only person that I would say this is probably not I deal and suited best for is someone with severely oily skin but I think if you have combination oily skin like myself or of course any other skin type mature dry uh combination dry combination normal anyone but someone who has severely Oly skin this is going to be a Gorgeous foundation on you but especially if you have mature skin and you want just like a perfect healthy youthful juicy look to your skin you got to try this one like this is a holy grail for that kind of effect I mean it's just it's beautiful I wish you could see me in person right now like face to face and see how beautiful this looks on my skin it gives you a surprisingly full coverage to be quite honest I think it's it's claiming to be more of a medium right yeah I'm pretty sure it's claiming to be like more of a medium coverage but you need a very small amount and the coverage goes a long way like a little bit goes a very very long way the way it feels on your skin is like no other it feels incredibly lightweight comfortable it is just a showstopper really is a gorgeous gorgeous Foundation worth every $47 you're going to spend on this Foundation it is worth a penny like it's worth every single penny absolutely would I go back out and repurchase it yes cuz I have I have in the past and I absolutely love this foundation so once again that's the chiso Synchro skin radiant lifting Foundation it's beautiful next up we have one for $48 don't mind the dirty packaging this was this came dirty from Sephora um or maybe I touched it with Foundation fingers who knows I was watching so many things that one night that I picked out a ton of these I yeah I my hand was like covered in Foundation at that point but it's the Laura Merc real Flawless weightless perfecting Foundation fingers crossed this is a good shade for me it's the shade 3 and2 camel now I actually used to love love Laura Mercier foundations back in the day I used so many in my Pro kit and my my clients loved it at the time I loved it I thought it was a really beautiful medium to full coverage Foundation I want to say this is a reformulation however I don't know for sure so if you know any more about this Foundation let me know I would love to hear if you've tried it what your thoughts are and if you remember the older Foundation that I'm referring to it was a great foundation so anyway let's try this one out love the packaging beautiful very Luxe glass bottle I love the little gold trim on the inside and the cap oh it's rose gold actually let's try this out I'm going to shake it okay let's do two pumps there about 2 and a half this actually feels very um liquidy a lot more liquidy than I thought it was going to be M okay it's not scented wow wow this is definitely like quite literally weightless I know it says it and it really is quite weightless on my skin it feels like nothing feels very like and it actually definitely feels like very like silky like has like a silky almost like a satin kind of quality to it blending really easy into my skin very very minimal effort over here which I love feels like nothing on my skin the shade that I chose is not the perfect match but when I was in store it was like the best option that was in stock for me and um I didn't want to wait for it to come in online so I just picked it but it's it's good enough it will make it work it's definitely good enough yeah wow okay that was easy that was quick and easy and the way this looks on my skin is just very skin-like and very flawless I feel like I don't even have honestly makeup on if it wasn't for the fact that the shade is a little off for me I feel like it's not even like a not noticeable obvious foundation on my skin I feel like it just looks like my skin but better which is a great great quality and a great a great talking point for a foundation so again blendability is great coverage is really nice I feel like you could probably build up this coverage so let's just build up a little bit more see what we can do so yeah it's blending on and layering really nice so if you wanted to make this a full full coverage you could definitely do so so there's great versatility with this formula with that said I think this is a really easy to use Easy to work with formula I love the coverage I love the finish the Finish is just very flattering very beautiful it looks nice and smooth definitely not emphasizing any texture or fine lines or anything I got going on so that's always a win this is a great Foundation this is a really great Foundation I can see now why so many of you have reached out to me asking me specifically to try this new foundation and to give my thoughts I could totally see why you've been asking cuz this is a really awesome Foundation I'm so happy I have this and I'll make the color work the color is not that bad I'll just kind of lighten it with a different concealer like a lighter concealer and just kind of mix the two together now let's talk about who this is for I think this is good for anyone I think even if you have oily skin you could definitely wear this Foundation combo dry combination dry severely dry mature I don't see why not I think this would be a really really nice lightweight but buildable coverage foundation for mature skin young whatever your whatever your age bracket is whatever age and your skin type is I think this is a really winning formula I think that anybody can wear this Foundation truly this is absolutely beautiful you're definitely going to see me wearing this more often for sure would I go back out and repurchase this yes and I probably will pick up a different shade once it's back in stock so wish me luck with that but this is beautiful definitely recommend this I'd say this is a great great choice if you want a soft natural finish with coverage and that feels nice and lightweight on your skin way to go Laura Mercier that is beautiful we're climbing up there slowly with the price point we're at $49 and for $49 you can get the Charlotte Tilbury airbrush Flawless Foundation this says on the on the package stay all day and night it's kind of cute you know how I feel about wearing your foundation all day and all night but we'll let that go I have used this in the past in my Pro kit I've only had two shades back in the day I don't quite remember why I took it out of my kit to be quite honest I think I just wasn't using it enough to make it worth slepping it around and adding that extra weight to my kit so I took it out that was years ago then it expired I tossed it so I don't quite remember my thoughts on this Foundation completely so I'm excited to try it again and to have it in my possession again I picked up the shade 6 neutral it seemed like the best shade option available the shade range is terrible I have to point that out the shade range is very much so terrible and they need to expand that as soon as possible but I have a feeling they're not going to do that so in the meantime yeah that's my biggest complaint so far is the shade range is just not good and also the undertones are a little wacky they're a little all over the place so I tried to do the best I could with the shade six let's see what it looks like on but first can we acknowledge how beautiful this packaging is I feel like it looks like a vintage perfume bottle like this is very this is just giving me very vintage makeup Vibes right here you know sh out til just has beautiful packaging let's face it that's part of the reason why you pay a big price her packaging is absolutely Luxe so I'm going to shake it and then we're going to do two pumps on the top of my hand's start with that and let's see what what this looks like on cuz I have never tried this on myself only in my Pro kit so I've never actually felt this on my skin I'm going to apply with my N7 brush it has a slight fragrance to it it's not overwhelming it's very slight it smells really good to me I like the way it smells so let's talk about this so far it's blending really easy so that's good it's even as far as like the pigment and the color payoff there's no patchiness there's no holes in the formula it's going on really quick really easy it's definitely very expandable like it's very pliable it's it's moving around really well it's blending onto my skin very very easy so that's always a great great thing with a foundation I mean wow color is good too I picked out a really good shade thank God cuz I I want to wear this and get my money's worth like I said and I I do remember liking this in my kit like I said I just don't remember why I I ended up taking it out cuz I just wasn't using it enough but I'm happy to have this back cuz wow that looks really beautiful I feel like it is very flawless I feel like it Blended on really easy the coverage is really nice it's definitely a medium to full and you could build it up in fact let's kind of layer a little bit more just to see what it does and how it layers yeah that builds up wow really quick really easy I feel like if you want to Flawless full coverage you should definitely check this one out be aware going into it the shade range is not good that's that's the biggest thing and the undertones are a little tricky if you can magically find a shade that matches you great try it cuz I think this is a really beautiful Foundation like that's full coverage but it's Flawless it's smooth there's zero texture I feel like I have like a very airbrushed almost like a filtered quality to my skin right now which I love a good anything that gives me like a filtered look I am it's in my kit I'll take 20 of them I'll Reby them I'll recommend them so I love that it's giving that kind of filtered look to my skin I feel like this would be good for any skin type if you are more dry definitely prep your skin accordingly so you don't look like you have a a heavier finish on top of your dry skin if you're mature I'd say you could still try this one out definitely I think again prep your skin accordingly you know your skin better than I do so if you want your skin to have more Luminosity underneath I would definitely prep with a good more thick maybe more of a rich moisturizer so you have more glow coming from within but yeah with that said oily skin would definitely benefit from this it has more of a dry down time it's definitely more of a satin to matte finish which I feel like is the best finishes for oily skin types combo would love it and again mature young I think this is a really great full coverage very smooth very Flawless Foundation I'm impressed I really am impressed once again maybe this will make its way back into my Pro kit who knows but that's beautiful that is really really beautiful and you know for Charlotte Tilbury the price point it's it's what you would expect from Charlotte Tilbury let's let's be honest and let's also be honest and say that this packaging to me is worth an extra couple bucks or 10 or however much sure actually you're paying for this packaging cuz this is Lux and quite beautiful would I go back out and repurchase this one yes I would and do I recommend it 100% this is once again the Charlotte Tilbury airbrush Flawless Foundation it's beautiful for $49 you can get the classic classic Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation this is the this is one of the original all day wear high performing foundations like it's been around forever it's super tried and true it has like a cult-like following literally people love this foundation and go hard for it and I don't blame it it's a really fantastic longwear foundation looks amazing on your skin it is the stay- inplace makeup like I just mentioned now the thing about this formula the reason why I wasn't never that super into it cuz I could never find a great shade match for myself so it's still the same I still had a really hard time finding the appropriate shade that would be closest to my skin tone I ended up choosing two and two buff and I think this was what I I tried to wear back in the day and it was like the closest match for my skin but we shall see together if if this was the one so it's a long run Foundation let me just read the back of the box really quick so proven 24-hour staining power looks fresh and Flawless stay color stays color true that's an important note because oxidization is really a big it's a big problem it could be a big problem with like long wear foundations as well cuz they tend to oxidize on your skin as you wear them so I like that claim feels lightweight and so comfortable you won't believe it's long wear def I agree with that transfer resistant 100% lasts through heat humidity medium to full coverage definitely matte finish won't clog pores oil controlling oil free fragrance fre dermatologist and opthalmologist tested it's a great Foundation okay it is a great great Foundation I am going to shake this first because it is a liquid so I'm going to shake it up now I'm going to have the same complaint that I had with the Nars Shear glow is that it doesn't have a pump it comes with the pore cap I'm not going to get into the reasons why I don't like that again I'll spare you the details again but I'm going to pour the 2 and two buff onto my hand see it's like my gosh all right now I know it says it's fragrance-free right did it say that but definitely has like I hate to say it has like a slight wet paint vibe to it but let's get into it let's try it out I haven't worn this in years I literally this has not been on my skin for probably close to I don't know it's been a long time a long long time so I'm going to apply it with my N7 looks like the shade's a little too light for me oops when I tell you I I've always had a hard time getting the right shade for me I I've always had a hard time and they have a huge shade range too like they they do not have a limited shade range to to to choose from I just could not find and I still cannot find the most ideal match for me now it's just a touch too light for me but it's not I could probably make this work Blends in quick easy and for being a 24-hour wear all day stay in place you know heat and humidity resistant Foundation it feels like nothing on your skin genuinely it doesn't feel heavy this does not feel heavy at all this is one of those foundations it's a really great staple for a bridal makeup artist if you're someone who works with Brides or you know anyone who has very long hours of of needing to have their Foundation look good all day long this is like the one to go to it really is I mean look at how beautiful that's sitting on my skin coverage is unreal it's definitely buildable I'm not really going to build it up cuz I don't feel like it's necessary this coat of it looks just Flawless and beautiful Blends in super easy the texture of it is amazing it's just a really easy Foundation to work with it really is aside from the No No pump that aside it's a really easy formula to work with it feels just like nothing on your skin it feels really lightweight it is just a showstopper it really is it's like a cult classic and a cult favorite for so many reasons like so many valid reasons this Foundation has like stood the test of time for again like very valid reasons it's a fantastic all day wear formula so if you're someone who lives especially in a very high humidity area like if you are in heat and humidity constantly and you want that Medium to full coverage and you want that all day wear and you need to stay looking fresh all day while you're at let's say at work or just going about your day then you definitely need to try the Estee Lauder double Weare you just have to so would I recommend this one yes and I recommend this for anyone any skin type any skin age it doesn't matter who you are if you're looking for those things specifically all day wear heat humidity resistant buildable coverage a Flawless finish check it out for sure when I go back out and repurchase this one 100% and maybe I'll go maybe I'll try to find a better shade again but or maybe I'll just warm this up with bronzer you'll see me wearing it either way cuz it's a stunning Foundation definitely worth the price tag in my opinion and and 100% worth checking out so once again this is the classic Timeless Estee Lauder Double Wear stay in place makeup also for $49 this is from hourglass Cosmetics it is the vanish stick Foundation it's actually called the seamless finish Foundation stick now I already need to let you know I have a few of these in my Pro kit I've used them for years they're fantastic they really are truly truly fantastic and worth the money and it's hard for me to find a stick Foundation that I like that I'm impressed by this is it this is like the stick Foundation if you want a full coverage full coverage this is full coverage but if you want a full coverage stick this is the one to pick up it is beautiful it really is quite stunning so the shade that I picked up is nude so I have to be honest I've never used this on myself I've only use this in my Pro kit and I've only used it when I want to achieve a Flawless full coverage I also have a variety of Shades because I highlight and I've been known to highlight and Contour with these not so much recently but they're in my kit for those reason reasons as well so I'll either use them and mix them as foundations or I'll use them as a contour depend on the skin tone or I'll use them as a highlight again depending on the skin tone but I I love them just full full disclaimer I love this formula so let's try it on I'm going to swipe it directly onto my skin okay I picked out a pretty good shade thankfully so what's really nice about this foundation and actually you know I'm going to use more of a buffing brush for this Foundation this is the 106 from BK Beauty this is like the preferred kind of brush that I will use for like sticks and creams and any products are a little bit more dense because it will really buff the product into the skin and make it look smooth and Flawless so it's exactly what I'm going to do and you're going to see how easy this stick more heavy more cream foundation Blends into the skin like already look at that it's so easy to work with it's so userfriendly the only thing is you know if you're not looking for a full coverage you're not going to really want to check this one out but I will say if you have skill in like shearing out a product like let's say you put a really glowy liquid illuminizer underneath and you just do a couple swipes and you really blend it out and evenly distribute just a few stripes with this Foundation you can make it look like a more of a natural medium coverage foundation so it is versatile if you take the time to make it versatile however if you just stripe it on like I did and you blend it out it is going to give you a fullon full coverage Flawless finish to your skin I mean look at that it's just beautiful I mean it really does like vanish literally into your skin it Blends so easy the texture of it the feeling of it it doesn't feel like a heavy stick foundation and it doesn't look like a heavy stick foundation so that's like the biggest thing to me is it doesn't look like it's supposed to when you think of stick foundations to me personally I think of like old school makeup Artistry like theater makeup and that's not usually the most natural beautiful finishes to wear on your skin this is the opposite this gives you such gorgeous G just Flawless skin and it's quick and it's easy so I love it and there's not one skin type that I don't recommend this I think even if you have dry or mature skin as long as you take the time to blend into your skin and you prep your skin properly you will love this product and if you have oily skin young skin uh combination skin it doesn't matter I recommend this for anyone anyone who is looking for more of a full coverage Foundation that is so beautiful finish beautiful blendability easy to work with quick convenient packaging in my opinion cuz you could just swipe it on and blend it out and then you're done I mean that is a beautiful showstopping cream foundation would I go back out and repurchase it yes cuz I have many many times they're pricey but they are definitely worth it in my opinion so once again that is The Hourglass vanish stick Foundation it is a beauty next up is also $49 it's from Charlotte tobre I've used this many many times you can see half of it's definitely gone it's the beautiful skin Foundation now if you're not new to my channel you might already know my thoughts on this I don't love this Foundation but let's get into it let me swipe it on let me show you what it looks like on my skin and then we'll talk about the reasons why I don't love it so the shade that I have is five I also have number seven somewhere over here but five is typically what I would wear in this formula I'm going to apply this with my N7 and use the lighter fiber side to just dip into this now this is supposed to be like more of a natural finish it's claiming to be your best healthy looking skin Day Ever which is really cute it's a really cute claim however every time I've ever worn this Foundation I feel like it gives me texture that I don't even have I feel like it emphasizes my pores in a really unflattering way like you never want your pores emphasized let's be real and I feel like that's exactly what this does it makes me look like I have texture that I don't even have and I don't like the way this wears throughout the day so I'm going to be real with you initially when it goes on it Blends out easy it Blends out beautifully it looks beautiful initially it I will give it that it looks really beautiful Flawless it looks very skin-like and glowy and healthy and all those saying and it gives you a great amount of coverage too for this product I'm not even sure what the coverage is supposed to be to be honest I think a medium at best so again initially it looks beautiful on but after a few hours it makes my skin look worse than it is like it makes me look like I have texture and larger pores than I actually do and that's not what I want with a foundation ever obviously so it is deceiving because when you first put on you're like wow this is beautiful it's easy to work with it Blends on super quick and super easy I mean it checks all the boxes but don't let it fool you like for me personally like I said after a few hours it's all downhill and I have texture and uh larger pores than I than I actually have in reality so that's my experience with this Foundation I know it's different for a lot of people and I hear a lot of conflicting things so that's just my personal Journey with this Foundation but don't let that sway you if you've been using it and you love it and it works for your skin I'm really happy to hear that and please leave me a comment and let me know how it is for your skin if you have tried it but if you could relate and you feel the same way about it and you feel like it emphasizes your skin texture or gives you texture that you don't even have also leave me that comment because I want to make sure that I'm like I said that I'm not alone with this because I felt like so many people loved this foundation and I was the only one that was like it's not really I don't know it's not giving me like Flawless skin at all so what I recommend this product I'm sorry to say no um I feel like there's so many other foundations that are like it that give you the same kind of finish and the same kind of color payoff same blendability but actually look beautiful all day long so for that reason I don't recommend it would I go back out and repurchase it no it's not for me it might be for you let me know either way but this is the Charlotte Tilbury beautiful skin Foundation next up we have one from Nars I'm excited for this one because I've never tried this on myself again lots of formulas I've used in my Pro kit and used on clients but never used on my myself so very excited to have one of my own it's the Nars natural radiant long wear Foundation this is a really fantastic foundation formula I have the shade medium 2.5 sahil it's the same shade that I use in the light reflecting so let's try it on let's shake it love the packaging love the glass bottle I love nars's labeling I love their uh just like their whole overall the vibe the look of the brand is just very Sleek very cool so I'm going to pump out two pumps to start H maybe three now I am out of clean brushes for a minute before I clean some more so I'm going to apply this with another favorite from BK Beauty it's the 109 brush this is a really great brush for multi-uses and let's try out ooh this Nars Foundation I feel like there's a color difference because this one runs a lot more yellow than this one is right now but we'll make it work so it's definitely a full coverage it's a it's a medium to full coverage I should say I feel like you could definitely make this in medium coverage depending on how many uh pumps you use at a time but but initially that that first initial layer that I put on is definitely going on as a full coverage now the beauty of this Foundation is it's longevity it is a very very longwearing very Flawless finish Foundation that will give you high performance so if you are someone who does bridal makeup or if you are a bride or if you're someone who works long hours and you need your makeup to stay put look Flawless give amazing coverage and stay put all day you have to check this Foundation out you just have to the only thing I want to say about Nars that has always bummed me out is I feel like their foundations run heavily heavily on the yellow golden side so very yellow very golden there's not a lot of neutrals there's definitely I can't think of any off the top of my head cool tones that Nars carries so it is very limiting in that regard their shade expansion their shade range is pretty decent however but the undertones can be really really tricky so unless you are a warm golden undertone you might have a difficult time find finding a foundation that is right for you and once I actually blend this out this does look similar in tone to the sahil I have in the light reflecting it's just a little tricky and it's going to look different because this is a full coverage versus this is a more sheer lightweight coverage so because of that they're going to look like two different colors that's just the reality now let's talk about how it Blended on it Blends on like a dream it is a Dream Foundation to blend onto your skin it is very much of full coverage like I mentioned but it's easy to work with it still has a very soft Luminous Finish to it which I really appreciate so it's full coverage but it doesn't look heavy or dry on your skin this is a foundation that is good for all skin types in my opinion all skin types can wear this one and any age can wear this one too so if you have mature skin make sure you prep your skin accordingly and you put your moisturizers on your hydrators first so it doesn't look too dull but if you want a Flawless full coverage that last all day literally anybody can wear this Foundation I cannot stress it enough the price point is fine it's average it's it's average for a high-end foundation in my opinion I love the packaging I love everything about it except for the shade range and the undertones that's it that's the only thing I don't love about NS foundations is really just the undertones I have the biggest problem with if you can get past that like I said I highly recommend this formula would I go back out and repurchase it yes 100% And I've actually been wanting to put more in my makeup kit to start using again as a full coverage cuz it really is that beautiful so love this one from Nars it is a beautiful full coverage foundation and if you haven't tried it already I highly recommend you do sticking with Nars I have the $52 Nars light reflecting Foundation if you are not new to my channel you know I love this foundation so much it is a beautiful glowy more natural finish Foundation the shade I have once again is seah heal you definitely want to shake this formula it's more on the liquid side it's definitely more on the runny side so shake it really well but this Foundation you will see in a second if you are new here you're you're going to see why why I love this foundation and why I use it so often so now that I've shaken it up let's talk about the bottle beautiful Sleek glass bottle has a pump which again you know I love so I'm going to do two pumps on my hand try not to be wasteful and I'm going to apply with a clean n 17 brush my brush with BK Beauty I'm going dip into it swipe it on and oh my gosh this feels like silky skin care infused makeup like it's juicy it's hydrating it's glowy but it's not in a it's not glowy in a greasy way it doesn't make you look like you need to blot you know what I mean it just looks like you have healthy beautiful luminous skin it is just absolutely a fantastic foundation Blends out quick easy it's even in coverage there's no patchiness in the formula and for being a more glowy Foundation like a very glowy foundation and for being light reflecting and all those glowy things it's actually very longwearing so once you have this on don't be afraid it's not going to slide and move around throughout the day it actually has really great stain power which I really appreciate because the last thing you want to do is have glowy Foundation that's sliding off your face throughout the day so I don't experience that with this Foundation that's something I really look for because I do have more oily leaning skin so when I put something it's too luminous on top of that usually the result is it's sliding off my face throughout the day which is not fun to deal with at all that does not happen with this Foundation instead you're left with long long wear very glowy luminous overall healthy looking skin I love this formula I really do the undertones are the same as the other one that I just tried out so just something to keep in mind my thoughts are the same for this one as they were for the previous one I recommend this one for anyone if you do have very oily skin I would be cautious if you're going to use this one I still wouldn't not recommend it for you I think that you could definitely make it work for your skin if you do have very very oily true oily skin you can make make it work by using a more mattifying primer underneath something to help grip it to your skin keep it on all day or you can of course make sure that you are setting it with a good translucent powder to keep the shine a little bit more at Bay so with that said I recommend it for anyone I think that anybody could wear this and love it especially if you have mature skin especially if you have dry skin it's definitely going to be a big hit if you have any of those skin types that I'm talking about but overall I say this is great for all skin types and all skin ages skin textures doesn't matter what you working with I think the will really enjoy this foundation for sure it is just it's beautiful it really is just so so beautiful I could go on forever about it so when I go back out and repurchase it yes and I will probably very soon cuz I feel like I'm running slight I'm getting towards the halfway point of this foundation so I'll definitely restock it at some point I recommend it for anyone it's definitely worth checking out if you want a beautiful glowy natural look to your skin so once again that's the Nars light reflecting Foundation Next Up For $52 is one from Patrick T I actually love this Foundation I've been using it for quite a while but let me show you what it looks like on it is the cream foundation and finishing powder Duos so we're not going to talk about the powder aspect of this because it's just going to be about the cream foundation part that's for another video when we talk about powders I have the shade light medium 2 I actually got to go to an event when this was first launched by Patrick T I was color matched by someone on his team it was a really fun event really fun experience I got to bring my girl Britney we had a blast so very fond memories with this Foundation you could tell it's very well loved I I've hit pan I've used it so many times I actually prefer to use this foundation with a 106 from BK Beauty this is my preferred brush because it gets in there picks up a good amount of product this is definitely the kind of cream you have to like warm up and really break down and soften to really get it to look smooth and Beautiful on your skin it is kind of like a thicker more heavier cream initially so by using this brush it just makes it really easy it just it breaks down that product it softens it really quick really easy and the way it Blends into the skin is just so quick again so quick so easy so efficient and talk about efficiency okay so one thing I love about this Foundation is if you on the go and I talk about this a lot with cream formula specifically if you're on the go this is like a dream come true not only do you have the cream foundation you have the powder which is going to help to like lock it in and to kind of refine and smooth the look of the foundation but what I really love about this product is not the powder it really is just the foundation like I barely dip into the powder pow to be fully honest with you it's all about the cream foundation formula because it is beautiful on it Blends out so quick so easy it has a seamless finish to it there's no patchiness now I've never used this in my Pro kit but I feel like after playing with it and using it so many times on myself that it would be good for all skin types I really do I think as long as you have the right skin prep going on for your skin type you'll be good to wear this cream foundation so for example if you have dry skin make sure you're prepping your skin properly with the right hydration the right moisturizer so that way when it goes on it looks luminous and it doesn't look heavy if you don't prep your skin right with cream foundations they could tend to pick up on any skin texture any skin dryness you have if you have dry patches if you have areas of your face you need to exfoliate those things are going to be magnified they're going to show up so much more than with a liquid foundation so just something to keep in mind cream foundations tend to be less forgiving on your skin and they tend to emphasize and enhance any skin texture issues you might have going on I do think that even if you have mature SK you could definitely wear this cream foundation again it's all going to come down to how you prep your skin and how you apply it how you blend it on if you use a blending brush like this like more of a buffing brush you're going to have a really quick easy time blending into your skin and getting a nice Flawless natural finish the coverage is definitely buildable but you can also Shear this out I've sheared this out many times by using more of a liquid illuminator underneath and just applying a really thin sheer amount and really buffing it into my skin so very versatile in that way very travel friendly very user friendly and very beginner friendly I think in those terms and every time I I pull this out and I wear it I always think why do I ever stop wearing it but I I have to stop wearing it at some point because I need to try other foundations I need to like switch it up and show more foundations on my channel and on my Instagram but I do love this formula and every time I stop wearing I always think why did I ever stop wearing it it's so beautiful and so easy to work with so would I go back out and repurchase this one yes absolutely I think it is a beautiful cream formula and is very travel friendly and just very easy to work with so love this one once again that is the Patrick to cream foundation and finishing powder Duo next up for $54 you can get the Ilia true skin serum Foundation this is a lightweight smoothing soothing formula it contains niacinamide allantoin and aloe infused cool all right let's try it out I've never tried this one I'm excited to try it um I picked up the shade 2.5 Malo Malo let me know if I'm saying that right hopefully I am um I'm excited to try this really really excited I've heard good things about this Foundation I do feel like it's a pricey it's a it's a higher price point and I didn't realize until this video honestly that Ilia has a higher price point than a lot of Brands like they're definitely priced a bit higher than I expect or that I remember them being priced at anyway nice glass bottle very nice Sleek very modern very pretty has a pump to it which I love I am going to shake this pretty well before I apply it and let's try two pumps to start okay it's definitely a bit more runny so it's it's more of a a a thin lightweight formula I love to use my N17 for more thin lightweight formulas let's dip into it and let's try it out I don't believe it's scented there's like no I don't think it's scented I think I'm picking up like old lotion on my hand or something I don't know okay so very glowy very serum like true skin serum Foundation this definitely feels like a serum this feels very very glowy this feels very feels very skincare likee it definitely feels it doesn't feel like a foundation I should just say that it does not feel like a foundation this feels like I'm putting like a hyaluronic acid serum on my skin like that's exactly the feeling that I'm getting so far it's pretty easy to blend on it's definitely a little bit more on the sheer side I feel like you could probably build it up let's just take a little bit more product and tap it on to build up the coverage I mean all in all it's pretty easy to blend it's definitely easy to blend and you know more sheer formulas like I've mentioned they're naturally going to be easier and more forgiving to blend so and when I say forgiving if if you miss a spot if you don't take a long time to like really properly blend your foundation it's still going to look good like they're just more forgiving in that regard because they're more sheer you can see your skin peeking through they're just easier to work with than a full coverage um by far so something to kind of keep in mind coverage is nice though I think it's a nice light bordering medium it's like a a full light coverage yeah slightly bordering medium coverage and again I did kind of build it up on my cheek right here and it built up pretty nicely the feeling of this feels amazing feels extremely hydrating feels really great I would imagine this would be a fantastic formula if you have severely dry skin or dry mature skin or mature skin that's going to look juicy and Youthful and just oh my God I I I wish I had a more mature skin model with me right now just I could pop it on them and just test it out if you're someone at home who's watching and you do have more mature skin you've tried this please leave me a comment please tell me what your thoughts are on this I would love to hear from you the only person I would not recommend this for is going to be oily if you have oily skin you're not going to want to wear this there's just no way there's just I'm sure you can make it work and Never Say Never I don't want to limit you or put you in a corner where you feel like you can't try it but I wouldn't recommend it for an oily skin or a severely oily skin person I think it's not going to be the right formula for you if you're normal oily I think you would probably get away with using this for sure if you have just combination skin combination dry and like I said severely dry you're going to love this formula Foundation finish is just beautiful it is super glowy it is super dewy if those are things you don't want don't get this one skip it if those are things you do want in a foundation you are going to get exactly what you want with this finish it is quite quite glowy when I go back out and repurchase this I think I would I have to be really honest with you if I was going to go pick up another glowy Luminous Finish Foundation I would just go pick up another Nars light reflecting cuz I just like the finish of this and I feel like the longevity is just not going to be there with this one but I will keep testing it out I'll keep continuing to share my thoughts on it but those just my initial thoughts so when I go back out and repurchase it I probably W it just to be fully honest with you but curious what your thoughts are leave them below if you have any if you've tried them and once again this is the Ilia true skin serum Foundation next up this one is also $54 but I would expect that from Bobby Brown $54 you can get the Bobby Brown Skin longwear weightless Foundation this has broadspectrum SPF 15 it's a full coverage oil-free Shine Control Foundation that's interesting I'm I'm excited for that I picked up the shade n52 natural and let's see what it says on the back to just really quick skin longwear weightless Foundation uh full longwear coverage it looks and feels like skin not Masky heavy or cakey always good this high performance oilfree formula creates a poreless shine-free finish without with incredibly comfortable day toight wear I like that too silky ulion of true to skin pigments hydrating emolion and wear extending ingredients floats over skin and delivers flexible breathable coverage instantly mattey skin for a natural look that is never dry dull or flat okay the rest is just like kind of the same thing repeated let's try it out gosh I haven't tried a Bobbi Brown Foundation in a long time like a really really long time nice packaging very Luxe glass bottle let's shake it up let's hope that I picked somewhat of a good shade these were also kind of hard to choose from too I think this one I got online at Sephora like online SE for.com but yeah I did not pick this out in store anyway let's pump some out on the top of my hand let's start out let's do that two full pumps I'm going to apply it with my N7 can't tell if this has this has like a little hint of a scent maybe not no Maybe not maybe it's just my hand all right let's blend this out all right this is drying down very quick almost instantly this is drying down I'm going Pat it in I'm going to try to work quickly because again this is like yeah this is drying on my skin as we speak and I still have moisturizer on too so just kind of keep that in mind not like it's going on top of like you know dry unprepped skin H I kind of like this okay aside from the fact that it's drying down quick I I mean I actually kind of like that to be quite honest now that I'm getting used to it I think there's just like a touch of a learning curve with this one where you have to kind of get used to how it's How it dries down quick but the fact that it does is actually really nice and very convenient you're not having to work hard to get it to sit on your skin and like actually stay put all right that's nice that is really nice to be honest this totally delivered like just initial thoughts this delivered everything it says it was going to do like as far as like instant results it definitely smooth my skin it doesn't feel heavy by any means it's giv really beautiful coverage I feel like the coverage is definitely buildable and the fact that it's drying down so quick tells me that it is going to be an actual long wear foundation so it's delivering what it's supposed to deliver it's giving me like that skin-like beautiful lightweight but flawless coverage to my skin yeah I mean this is gorgeous this is a really nice Foundation this is really really nice I think this is a beautiful one to check out you know I even though it's like a long wear and it's supposed to be more of a matte all day wear I still think this would be a nice formula for even like more mature skin I don't because it doesn't have that heavy feeling to it at all like it just kind of It kind of like just sinks onto your skin it stays put like it's feeling like it's going to stay put really well even without any kind of powder yeah that's really nice and once again like what I was going to say is the fact that it is delivering all these things but it's not feeling heavy or looking heavy on my skin that's a big deal that's a really big deal and that's hard to achieve in my opinion with foundation so I mean look at that that looks absolutely beautiful it was pretty easy to work with for the most part it wasn't like the easiest easiest but it was like fairly easy to work with this is nice you're going to see me definitely wearing this and the color works perfectly for me which I'm so thrilled about I like I said I recommend this for anyone I think this is a great one for anyone who's looking for a longwear foundation for a nice smooth you know oilfree like Shine Control type formula so if you have mature oily skin you know we don't talk about that a lot like it's the most common thing we talk about is having mature dry skin but there are 100% tons of you out there who talk to me on a regular basis that say you have mature oily skin so and if you want that full coverage and that mattifying look without feeling like you have a mask of makeup on you should definitely definitely check this one out this is a great one highly recommend this it's beautiful look at that I can't wait to wear it more often and to give you more thoughts on it as I continue to wear it out and test it out but would I repurchase this yes I would I think this is a really great formula from Bobby Brown so once again it's the Bobby Brown Skin longwear weightless Foundation beautiful for $54 you can get the rose ink soft light skin smoothing liquid foundation I have the shade 15n it's a medium neutral shade I've never tried it I've I don't even think I've heard anything about it to be quite honest I so I don't really have any kind of like reference of like if it's a popular Foundation if people like it I know nothing about it so we're going to try this for the first time completely together the back of it says it's a clean non-tic Foundation that delivers medium buildable coverage with a smooth soft matte finish oh interesting I for some reason I wouldn't expect a matte finish from the brand Rose ink they seem very much to me they come across like more of a like a merit or like um just one of those more natural minimalist glowy Brands you know let me know if you if you have the same thought as I do so I'm surprised to see it's matte it's a weightless fluid powered by bioengineered complexes visibly improves brightness and reduces the appearance of redness and pores while minimizing excess oil to keep skin in a balanced State cool all right let's try it let's try this out beautiful packaging I think Ros Inc has some really cool like very modern packaging very unique to the shape of this nice glass bottle it's pretty pricey to be quite honest for a brand that's very new like they're giving like very high-end like like gianci prices with $54 in my opinion and to be out the gate I don't know I just my thoughts the price alone is a little off-putting to me as like a from a consumer standpoint but let's see how the foundation is on it could be like it could knock my socks off and it could be worth every penny so you never know I'm going to shake it really well and let's pump it out beautiful bottle let's try about that much okay so it's got like a medium thickness like level of thickness to it so I'm going to just apply this with my N7 doesn't have any fragrance and what kind of coverage was this again medium coverage all right so the shade is not bad it's not bad was it supposed to be a neutral yeah this is supposed to be a neutral I don't know if it's giving I guess it's pretty neutral yeah it's pretty neutral all right I mean I feel like I want more coverage I'm going to pump one more pump on my hand let's just do a little bit of layering let's see if we can build up this coverage cuz I feel like it's a little patchy and inconsistent with that one coat so let's apply a little bit more and see what we get all right it's looking better now all right okay all right it's like I almost needed to give it a minute to just kind of soak into my skin and once it did it's actually looking really smooth around my especially like around my inner cheek where I do have larger pores it seems very smooth uh very yeah I mean it's actually looking really really beautiful coverage is nice it is buildable like you saw me do I feel like it's better suited if you build up the coverage cuz it looked a little patchy with that initial one coat but now that it's on and it's kind of settled onto my skin it looks really nice like that looks beautiful feels lightweight the blendability wasn't like the easiest it didn't like it didn't blend itself on on my skin by any means it definitely took some more finessing and some more work to make it look as smooth and Flawless as it does right now but once you've done that the overall appearance of it and the finish of it is really quite beautiful like it looks really nice feels really lightweight feels very comfortable I can't imagine this being even though it's supposed to have like more of a matte finish I don't feel like this would be bad for like more dry skin cuz it feels really lightweight actually feels very has more of like a hydrating feel to it which is really nice so I think this would actually work for any skin type any skin age uh mature young I think anybody could wear this Foundation I like it a lot the only thing I'm going to really pick on it for honestly is just the price tag the price tag just seems a little unnecessary like unnecessarily high for you know a newer Foundation it's really pretty though it really is beautiful I think I need more time to like fall more in love with it but my first impression is this is a really nice foundation and I think it would be a good universally flattering foundation for anyone so with that said I do recommend it I don't love the price tag that's just my thought and my opinion would I go back out and repurchase it I don't see why I wouldn't but it's not like wowing me it's not like I'm not floored by it you know I so maybe if I had to I it wouldn't be like a bad option it's definitely a really nice option but would I actually go back out and repurchase it I don't think I would CU I would there's so many others I love more like my Nars formulas that I would reach for and opt for and they're actually less expensive for those reasons specifically I want to go back out and repurchase it is it beautiful yes absolutely so once again that is the rose ink soft light skin smoothing liquid foundation next up for $55 I have an old favorite of mine I haven't used this foundation in quite some time and I don't know why I love this foundation so full disclosure I love this Foundation it is the Dior forever transfer proof 24-hour Foundation High Perfection concentrated floral skincare with sunscreen broadspectrum spf15 we don't need the SPF 15 that's just like an afterthought but it's in there just to mention I picked up the shade 2.5 neutral and I'm usually a w in Dior however I know I can make a neutral work for me in Dior so let me show you what this looks like on packaging very Luxe glass bottle neat matte cap I know it's not about that but I love good packaging so let's move on let's try it on this is a very longwear formula and I used to use this in my Pro kit and again I don't know why I took it out I think I just got so reliant on my Dior backstage face and body and my Armon luminous silk that I just once I ran out of these I never replenished it cuz I was just so used to using my Dior and my Armani so anyway little Side Story I do miss it and I do want it back in my kit so maybe 2024 will be the year of putting this back in my Pro kit I'm going to apply it with my N7 now this does have a slight somewhat like Fruity but maybe like hints of floral fragrance to it it's not overpowering it's not overwhelming so just something to point out cuz I know a lot of you don't like fragrance I don't mind it personally as long as it smells good I love good smelling stuff I'm a sucker for it so I think it smells really nice and really um really fresh in a way so it doesn't bother me now let's talk about how unbelievably gorgeous this Foundation is I mean first of all Blends in like a dream it is so easy it's so user friendly you don't have to be great at blending to get this to look beautiful and Flawless the blendability is just perfect Perfection it's so easy like I said so easy to work with so easy to blend on my skin the Finish is absolutely gorgeous it's like a Flawless satin slightly leany matte once it dries down finish which is beautiful and very very longwearing I think this is a fantastic formula if you are a bridal makeup artist or if you are a future bride and you want a good foundation it's going to last you your entire day and look beautiful in your photos you should definitely check out this formula um worth every penny in my opinion it is just a Fant fantastic just Flawless full coverage Foundation it's incredibly longwearing like I mentioned previously it will stay on your skin through so much so even without primer even without a ton of setting powder it's still going to last on your skin and have that longevity which I think is something to talk about something really to talk about I love this foundation so much I really could go on about it forever it is just such a gorgeous full coverage longwearing foundation so I recommend this for anyone looking for a full coverage that is also bonus longwearing I think no matter what your skin type is no matter what your skin age is anybody can wear this Foundation it's going to be good for anyone looking for like I said a full coverage longwear Foundation or just a full coverage even if you don't care if it lasts all day it's going to last all day no matter what which is a fantastic bonus I think so would I recommend this Foundation yes and to anyone will I go back out and repurchase it yes always cuz look at that that is just literally perfection in a bottle so Dior forever Foundation it is just gorgeous also for $55 and also from Dior it's another showstopper I'm sorry you're going to hear me rave about this one as well it's equally as good but in a completely different way this is the Dior forever skin glow so it's a 24-hour wear radiant Foundation Perfection and hydration concentrated floral skincare with sunscreen it's all the same claims except this is a longwear with a glow so both are extremely longwearing they're both going to stay put all day but one's going to give you that matte finish this one is going to give you the most gorgeous glow I used to save this foundation for like a special event cuz I it was pricey and I didn't want to keep like I didn't want to waste it so I was always saving it for like a special occasion a date night an event a party a wedding I I mean it's it's kind of ridiculous when I look back but i s literally saved this for like special events only that's how much I love this Foundation the shade that I picked up in this one is 2. .5 W so they had a warm tone in stock when I picked it up at Sephora very similar packaging except it is all shiny glass bottle it's a pump it's magical it's just magical let me show you what this looks like on I'm going to shake it a little bit and let's start with two pumps so I'm more over wear any texture cuz it is a glowy foundation I'm going to apply this with a 106 from BK Beauty oh I remember this feeling I haven't worn this in like probably a year it's probably been a good year since I've had this foundation in my collection the one I had previously it actually expired before I could use the entire bottle like I knew it was old and I just had to get I had to part I had to get rid of it but it hurt me to do it but I knew I was doing the right thing because it was definitely like I had it for years way too long look how easy this Blends on it's so quick it's so easy to blend on it's so easy to work with it melts into your skin in in seconds honestly it's so user friendly it's ridiculous so if you want more of a medium to full coverage with a glow Foundation which I think is a really hard combination to achieve for a lot of these foundations and like makeup brands it's hard to achieve a good full coverage Foundation that gives you glow but Dior has done it and they've done it perfectly well I literally recommend this foundation for anyone anybody can wear this it doesn't matter if you have really oily skin the fact that it's longwearing it's going to stay put on your oily skin so it's it don't be afraid of it it's going to give you that beautiful glow but not in an overly glowy way if you have dry skin mature skin young skin I don't care what kind of skin you have or what age your skin is you can wear this foundation and you will more than likely I guarantee you you will love this Foundation I really do I'd be shocked if you didn't like it it is just stunning look at that finish is gorgeous it gives that subtle glow it's not an overwhelming amount of glow you could probably even enhance this glow even more if you put like a liquid illuminator underneath just as an option to throw out there but I think this is an amazing full coverage long wear glowy foundation for everybody anybody and everybody the price yeah it's $55 but honestly it's worth every penny in my opinion it really is a fantastic formula all around would I go back out and repurchase it yes cuz I have many times so and I now have a new one in my possession I'm so happy so once again that is the gorgeous musthave Dior forever skin glow Foundation you just can't beat it next up for $55 we have one from Shivan this is the prism Lee skin caring glow Foundation I've used this in the past I didn't ever have the perfect shade for myself so I stopped using actually gave it away to my sister who's a little bit lighter than me and has a slightly different skin undertone so I don't have it I haven't had it for a while but I remember loving it and being disappointed I didn't have the right shade and I don't know why I never went out and got another one long story short we're here now hopefully I picked out a shade that is mo more appropriate for my complexion we shall see I have the shade in my hand w245 we're going to find out if this this is a good match it's a warm undertone so hopefully that's going to be more close to my complexion even though I'm like more of a warm Olive beautiful packaging I mean what would you expect from Gian they have incredible packaging super Luxe I mean this just screams luxury it's gorgeous I love the black IAI come on this is like it's beautiful it's $55 it's beautiful let's try it out again together has a pump which is always great I'm going to shake it really quick all right Let's do let's start with two pumps just like that ooh okay definitely has more of like a thin formula it's definitely more a little bit more runny I'm going to apply this with my 106 cuz I has my clean brush at hand and I I love this brush for foundation it's like it'll always be one of my BFFs for foundation so let's apply it this does have fragrance most of gian's products have some extent of fragrance to it if you don't mind things that smell really beautiful then you won't mind this but if you're someone who's like prone to like headaches for example with fragrance just something to point up you might not like this formula for that reason so this is a very lightweight glowy formula it's more of a a light coverage in my opinion too but you could definitely build this up to me this is a really great high-end glowy foundation for a more of a natural look so if you're for example I'm actually to take one more pump so if you're looking for more of a lightweight glowy Foundation this is a really great option so let me apply a little bit more cuz I just feeling like I want a little bit more coverage you can definitely build this one up and it layers really nice it's easy blend out on the skin the texture of it is just it's like lovely it just feels wonderful on your skin it feels very like skin care forward you know like it feels like a serum basically on your skin now the wear time I don't quite remember how well this wears throughout the day cuz it's been a minute since I've worn it or even tried it if you're looking for like an all day type wear you're going to want to avoid this kind of foundation and just more like sheer glowy foundations in general cuz they don't have the longevity that like that Bobby Brown one for example has or like some other ones that are more full coverage and matte finish have this is g to be more of a glowy sheer you know skin-like type Foundation more of a natural foundation so even if you have oily skin I think this is still like a really good option if you want that kind of finish to your foundation I mean I think this is good for anyone to be honest I think this is good for all skin types any skin ages any anyone could wear this Foundation it just depends on if you're looking for that more natural healthy luminous glow to your skin without it feeling like it's it's being weighed down with too much coverage because the coverage is is pretty light to buildable medium if you want it that way would I go back out and repurchase it yes I would cuz it's like it's just it's healthy glowy natural luminous it's like all those beautiful things on my skin and it feels really really nice and it's easy to work with it is a little bit more pricey but with that you get a really beautiful very nice feeling foundation on your skin I definitely recommend this one if you want a good glow and it's again the Shivan prism skin caring glow Foundation beautiful okay next up is one for $56 and don't laugh at this size of the bottle that I'm about to show you because it's not the fulls size bottle I was uh I'm grateful that I received the entire collection of this Foundation like the entire shade range from this collection it's a new one from chaso I should say it's the revital essence Skin glow Foundation you know for my understanding it's very similar to the other one that I showed you just previously but it's more glowy again I don't know a whole lot about this Foundation this new formula from them but I do know that chasa always knocks out really beautiful Foundation formulas so I'm excited to try this I've saved it for this video I've been sitting on these samples for this video so I can have like a nice true first impression the shade that I'm going to put on right now is 360 Catrine and let's try it out I'm excited very excited so let's try out this cute little very travel friendly bottle and of course like the actual Foundation does come with a pump but this has like a nice little spatula applicator which is kind of cool so I'm just going to take some and like pop it on the top of my hand this does not have any kind of fragrance to it which is again nice I'm going to apply it with with my N7 and let's go for it very lightweight wow very thin very very thin and lightweight the shad's a little off for me but other than that H I don't know if I love this um coverage I'm getting I'm going to apply a little bit more cuz I just feel like I'm not getting enough coverage and my Skin's starting to look a little red after all that all the taking off and reapplying and doing all those things it's starting to get a little irritated as we kind of near the end of this huge haul okay so the only thing about this is first of all it's giving a really beautiful glow it's giving kind of a I mean I know there's no metallic there's nothing metallic in this formula but it's giving more of a metallic shine to be honest it's like very very like glossy high high Shine the only thing is it's a little patchy it's a little bit on the patchy side and I hate to say that cuz I I love the I typically love the cheso formulas and their Foundation but this one's a little patchy yeah it's it's just giv a little patchiness to me like right here that's a bummer the other thing is I do feel like it's not a very smoothing formula I do look a little more textur in the inner part of my cheek which is a bummer I really wanted to love this I'm I'm shocked to say that I'm not loving like first impresses I'm not loving the way this is looking on my skin it feels really nice it feels like I have like a nice skincare ingredient like a serum on my skin I can't imagine this has a very longevity when you're wearing it throughout the day for that reason I would not recommend this for like more of an oily skin person or someone who needs their makeup to stay put all day long obviously this is not going to be your best option if you have more dry skin dry mature skin this is going to be a nice lightweight formula but even if I don't love there's some patchiness in the the actual coverage that's bothering me the most it is easy to blend on however it is still kind of patchy so that's that's that's not fun that's that's definitely an issue price point it's definitely you know a tire up there in price so that's something to consider I'm not loving this I hate to say it I'm not loving this new one from chaso and I'm really sad would I repurchase it granted I did not full disclosure I did not purchase this like I said but would I actually go out out and purchase it I don't think I would and I'm so sad I'm sorry there's just so many other good ones out there on the market that are like a glowy easy to blend on super like smooth and like the texture and like the consistency the Leisure skin looking smooth on top of it and this is not hitting those points for me so for that reason don't necessarily recommend it and for that reason also I wouldn't go back out and repurchase it I'm sorry to say it chaso you just didn't quite I don't feel like you nailed it with this one once again that is the chaso revital Ence skin glow Foundation now for $57 you can get the Lancome tint ad doll Ultra wear care and glow all right broadspectrum spf27 we won't go on about that it is a medium coverage medium to full coverage up to 24-Hour healthy glow skinc Care Foundation I picked up the shade 335w so it's going to have a warm undertone care and glow is like the main thing you're seeing on this so it's like care and glow healthy glow skincare Foundation all right I think I get the gist of this it's going to be a decent amount of coverage clearly skin caring ingredients I should say and it's going to have a glow so beautiful packaging by the way lancom has beautiful classic very classic packaging formula separated a little bit right here that's but we just need to shake it up so let's shake it up and again this is $57 it's not cheap but most of lanco products are typically not they're not the most affordable so let's try this out has a pump to it which is great any other talking points no all right so let's try it out I'm going to pump o oh that's wo wo wo wo hold on don't leave me don't move I'm going to pump two very liquidy pumps on the top of my hand wow this is very watery oh M this is heavily fra fragranced heavily heavily fragranced that smells really good smells like a really really nice expensive candle wow okay I mean this feels really nice I'm not going to lie this feels really really nice it is very I doubt that it's the kind of coverage that it's saying this is where it indicates how much coverage you're going to get there's like a four dot marker it has three dots filled so it's claimed to be a pretty full coverage in that regard in their like their in their system they're using to tell you what kind of coverage you're going to get here's the thing that melted into my skin with very minimal effort I mean I barely had to like blend back and forth I really just did a couple of big strokes and I got a pretty nice coverage there's certain areas that looked a little streaky for a minute and I just use a tap emotion to kind of push that product onto my skin it feels like nothing it feels actually like I put like a very juicy serum on my skin the coverage is actually pretty nice but it's definitely less coverage than it's saying it's going to give you so just kind of keep that in mind let's build it a little bit and see what we can do I'm going to put one more very watery pump on my hand by the way the shade that I picked out is pretty good too so I'm happy about that now let's apply a little bit more and this definitely feels like very really nice it feels really really nice I would say if you are a dry skin girly or boy out there and you want some like really healthy like juicy hydrating glow to your skin with coverage like some coverage then you should definitely check this one out this feels amazing I would say I don't think this is going to be a great one for oily skin types it feels almost too hydrating and too glowy for that type of skin I think it's it's not going to be your best suited formula for your skin types just a forewarning but anyone else like normal combination mature young and dry skin any any kind of dry skin people out there are going to appreciate this formula cuz it feels really incredible on my skin and it looks beautiful there was a little bit of patchiness initially but it wasn't horrible it definitely takes a little bit more finessing to get this Foundation to look streak free it's so thin it just doesn't really like grip onto my skin very well but I have more of like a combination oily skin so that could be a factor too I would love to see what this looks like on dry skin if you're someone who has dry skin and you've tried this Foundation please leave your your comments and your thoughts below I'd love to hear like what your thoughts are as someone who has true dry skin cuz I don't but those are just my thoughts um I think this is beautiful all that to say I think it's beautiful even though this is probably not the best suited for my skin type I'm still going to continue to wear this cuz I really like the way it feels and I like the way it looks on my skin it's not emphasizing any texture or you know larger pores in this area even though it has that high shine it still looks overall very smooth and very flawless I think this is a really nice formula I really like this this kind of reminds me a little bit of like my Nars light reflecting but with a little teeny teeny bit less uh coverage it's a very thin formula just keep that in mind it almost feels like watery on your skin like a watery almost feels like a watery Essence on your skin to be totally honest so do I recommend this one yes but not for oily skin types like I mentioned would I go back out and repurchase it I would that is beautiful that's totally beautiful that's once again the Lancome tint ad doll Ultra wear care and glow Foundation okay let's keep the theme going with another Lancome Foundation this one's a lot more popular in my opinion it's been around longer than the other one I just tried out it's all also $57 it's the Lancome tinty doll Ultra wear this does contains sunscreen it has broad spectrum SPF 25 it's an up to 24-Hour wear foundation with breathable coverage it does indicate on the bottom how much coverage you get I picked up a different shade in this because I felt like the shades even though they are the same brand I felt like there was a big jump in this shade for example in this formula versus this shade the same shade in this formula partly because it's a full coverage and naturally it's going to look slightly different because there's so much more pigment like color payoff and pigment in it so anyway I picked up a different shade I picked up 330 neutral so it's transfer resistant love that let's try it out I have not ever worn this Foundation but I've heard really great things about this foundation so my hopes are very high same bottle but in a frosted uh cap and frosted glass bottle very nice let's shake it up and let's pump out two pumps I feel like this is going to be a little bit more my my type like my kind of like preferred feeling and look to a foundation I'm going to apply with my N7 let's swipe it on H I can't tell if it has fragrance I feel like I need to smell coffee beans at this point cuz I've smelled so many foundations I don't think it has fragrance to be honest would the box say I'll look later I don't think it has fragrance okay so far this is stunning the shade is perfect I'm so happy about that cuz I really wanted to I was really stressing about this shade I have to tell you I spent a I bought this one in person at Sephora and I must have spent I spent quite a while crouched down on the ground around looking comparing holding my hand up trying to get better light and um I picked out a winner so I'm so happy I'm so relieved this looks beautiful this is I can already tell you this is like an amazing Foundation I can already tell right away like first impression this is a fantastic formula this melted into my skin I mean you saw that I just did minimal minimal effort in in terms of like blending this onto my skin and it just melt into my skin the coverage is super Flawless but in a really lightweight almost natural uh way it has more of like a a satin to mat finish like it's looking more Satin right now cuz it hasn't had a chance to dry down fully obviously texture of it is fantastic the way it looks on my skin is so Flawless but it doesn't feel heavy which is a really important thing with a full coverage Foundation they tend to feel just naturally they tend to feel a little bit more heavy and they tend to feel like you're you're they're wearing you versus you're wearing it the does not have that feeling I feel like I just have beautiful Flawless skin I mean it's gorgeous like the everything about this has just won me over like the way it Blends the finish the texture it's just a great Foundation what more can I say and the fact that it's also a longwearing foundation that looks this good and feels this good just I mean I'm sold like I am sold you're definitely going to see me wearing this Foundation probably all the time to be honest I feel like this might be a new one when I have like special occasions or special events where I need my makeup when I'm going to put on super early and I need to look good all day long that's beautiful now I recommend this for anyone I don't think there's one person that I could think of that won't benefit from wearing this Foundation if you were looking for those things so keep that in mind if you're looking for more of a full coverage Flawless all day wear smoothing effect to your foundation check this out whether you're mature young oily combo dry I don't care this is a great Foundation that feels and looks beautiful on your skin amazing formula like 10 out of 10 love this one for sure this is a gorgeous formula would I go back out and repurchase it yes and I highly recommend it so check this one out it's the Lancome tint adult Ultra wear Foundation that is just H look at the skin it's just it's Flawless it's beautiful I love it next up we have one for $58 it's from hourglass I've had this one for a minute like at least probably 2 years at this point so yeah it's probably borderline expired technically it's expired let's not get into it I've saved it for good reason and now I don't have to buy a new one for this video so all that to say this is The Hourglass ambient soft glow Foundation now I love this Foundation I love the formula I think it's a really great formula however the shade range is not good the shade range was difficult and to to be honest I had a really hard time back when I first purchased this getting the right shade for my skin tone I ended up going for the shade six it seemed like out of the ones I swatched and the ones that were available in that processor elimination this seemed to be the best option now for warning this is still not the best shade match for me so you're going to see it go on it's not going to be the most ideal match I've been called out for wearing it before for it being too yellow and it is it's too yellow it's definitely too warm for my complexion but all I had to say at the time this was the best shade available so I wish they would just throw some extra Shades in their hourglass if you watch this I love your brand and I love this formula please just add some more shades cuz you're missing you're missing quite a few I'm going Shake It Up let's pump out it's two B two pumps texture of it really nice very easy to work with it's been a minute I've missed you let me show you what this looks like on it does not have fragrance I couldn't remember if it did or not so you'll see right away this is just it's too it's a little too yellow for my complexion it's not horrible but you know being online if it's not a perfect match people are going to call you out for it so I've been called out for it and it's you know you got to get a good laugh right it's I want to wear the foundation cuz it's such a beautiful Foundation it's a really great formula but this shade is not ideal so it is what it is now let's talk about the texture of this it looks so smooth and Flawless and it looks like a filter on my skin it feels amazing on my skin it's really easy to work with like very easy to blend out I truly think this is one of the best foundation formulas I've ever tried and I know that's saying a lot cuz I've tried a lot of foundation formulas and I still I still truly believe that like it's a gorgeous gorgeous Foundation the wear time is great I've worn it for an extended period of time when I was wearing it back when I first got it the coverage is beautiful it gives you quite a good amount of coverage without being heavy or looking heavy on your skin it still feels extremely lightweight and breathable like it looks like your skin but better and it definitely has a very smoothing airbrush quality to it which I really appreciate and it's kind of something you come to expect with hourglass they have a lot of products that overall give you a very airbrushed look to your skin which I love especially as a makeup artist I want I want my clients to look like they have incredible skin this will give you the most Flawless air brush and smooth look to your skin so if you have any texture larger pores this is a really good one to check out because it will give you that beautiful amount of coverage while still looking like your skin and while smoothing your skin as it's doing it I mean my skin looks I mean it looks so satiny and so smooth it's just a great it's an amazing formula I highly recommend this one there's not one person or skin type or skin age that I wouldn't recommend this for I think this would honestly work for anybody anybody as long as you're not looking for a really lightweight coverage or if you're not looking for like you know some crazy all day wear waterproof you that you could wear through a hurricane then this is a really great one worth checking out it's a beautiful formula the biggest complaint that I have is the shade range that they have available it's just not ideal it's not there's some major gaps they need to fill but I still recommend it I still think it's an incredible formula would I go back out and repurchase this yes I would I just wish they had more shades so once again that is The Hourglass ambient soft glow Foundation it is just I mean it's beautiful it's Flawless in a bottle all right next up for $60 you can get the YSL all hours Foundation this say a broadspectrum SPF 30 it's a luminous matte coverage Foundation up to 24hour full coverage weightless feel I picked up the shade mn7 medium neutral here's the thing okay you can't what you can't be like luminous and matte they don't that doesn't make sense you know what I mean like you're you're one or the other you know matte doesn't matte is matte luminous is Luminous we're going to not go into detail about that I'm not going to try to like I'm going to let it go cuz I'm really excited to try this formula okay I've tried I've heard really great things about this formula people Rave about it I've been wanting to try it since it came out so I am so happy to have this in my hands right now so let's try it out but really quick I want to just read some of the claims on the back of the box it's a dayt night foundation with a Flawless longwear luminous matte Couture finish all day long wear up to 24hour staining power as if freshly applied cool resistant to temperature change love it no touch-ups required transfer resistant color stays true for continuous sunscreen protection reapply every 2 hours not good that they said that that's that's good breathable full coverage or breathable texture provides full coverage and natural finish it gives you a weightless feel Flawless wear and it feels comfortable all day long the other thing I want just to mention too is it says skin feels hydrated and shine free all day long skin andrich formula provides all day hydration the neok skin powder keeps the complexion shine free cool what else Jasmine petals from the YSL Community Gardens helps to combat dual skin all right so that's where they're getting this like luminous matte claim at least they put put that there cuz it actually does help to kind of it helps put you in the mindset of where what they were thinking by putting luminous matte so I I that's better it's better let's try it out I I've talked way too much you know I'm so sorry I've talked way too much let's try it out beautiful packaging absolutely Lux and gorgeous I wouldn't expect anything else from YSL they have fantastic H beautiful packaging so very Luxe bottle love the logo on the top let's shake it and let's try it out again I've been wanting to try this for quite some time so I'm really really excited right now I hope it doesn't disappoint I just pumped two pumps I'm going to take my brush and let's it's definitely fragrance as most YSL products are just a forewarning so if you're not U if that's a a hard stop for you then you're not going to want this Foundation just a disclaimer all right this is already blending into my skin like a dream the foundation shade that I picked out is close to perfect which is amazing I mean this is blending out so easy so effortlessly it's looking so smooth and so Flawless on my skin the coverage is really nice it's a it's a medium to full coverage without looking heavy and certainly does not feel heavy that's for sure it feels really lightweight on my skin I don't mind the fragrance I think honestly it's smells beautiful but I know a lot of you don't like fragrance and it's a a deal breaker for you so just again St to really point out but the way this looks on my skin is like absolute I mean it's absolutely Flawless okay Blends out super easy the texture is really nice it's easy to work with it has a really beautiful smoothing quality to it I mean the formulation I think is is pretty perfect I would love to see and I will see how this wears throughout the day obviously this is a first supression I'm only wearing this for a very short period of time but sometimes it's all about that first impression right it could be good it could be bad and it sets a tone for the rest of the your time with that Foundation my first impression is this is absolutely worth the hype and worth the like accolade that it's getting cuz it is stunning on and it feels amazing blendability superb I think this is good for anyone mature young dry oily combo I think this is good for anyone I really do I think this is a really beautiful Foundation I can't think of any person that won't enjoy this the only thing that you might not find enjoyable is the fragrance so if a fragrance is a a hard no for you then you want to skip this Foundation if you don't mind then you should definitely definitely check out this YSL all hours Foundation cuz it is beautiful absolutely beautiful and I feel like I could apply a lot less and get more of a natural look to my skin right now and like really customize it which I think is really great too so it tells me like there's really good range with this foundation so it does seem like it's going to be good for anyone would I go back out and rep purchase it absolutely this is worth the price tag for sure so once again YSL all hours Foundation it's beautiful okay this next one is also very high-end very luxurious that's also $60 it's from Valentino and if you're not new to my channel you'll already know my thoughts on this I love this Foundation it is a beautiful beautiful and I in my opinion slightly underrated Foundation I don't feel like enough people talk about what a great formula this is this is the very Valentino light lasting perfecting Foundation this has a broad spectrum of it got rubbed off 15 15 broad spectrum 15 don't leave home without sunscreen underneath is all I'm going to say now this is a really gorgeous medium to buildable coverage that gives you the most flawless luminous look to your skin but it's very very longwearing I've taken this on like travel jobs with me and I've worn it all day like when it first came out I actually took this to London with me and I got compliments on my skin it looked beautiful all day it looked really fresh all day so I have tried this Foundation out I have put this to the test let me show you if you're new here what this looks like on now I have the shade mn3 and I'm going to shake it beautiful packaging just by the way I forgot to mention that beautiful glass bottle Lux cap I mean it's just come on like I it's just like the YSL it's a gorgeous gorgeous very Luxe packaging I'm going to pump two pumps on my hand and let me show you how stunning this Foundation is on I'm going to swipe onto my brush and let's go for it this does have fragrance it's not like the most strong it's not as strong as like the shanii just for like reference but it is fragrance so just to point out again this might be a note for a lot of you because of the fragrance aspect hopefully it's not it's not overwhelming you definitely get used to it you can kind of smell it initially when you put it on and throughout the day it just dissipates I don't smell this on my skin throughout the day by any means the way this Blends under your skin is so easy it is so Flawless it's so easy to work with I mean that took about what a couple swipes and then it's on it's Blended it's smooth it's extremely Flawless it does leave you with this beautiful satin glow it's not super glowy it's not like over the top so if you have oily skin I think this is a really great formula to still like stay put all day to still be longwearing but to still also give you like an enhanced glow to your skin this definitely has like a a light reflecting quality to it it's gorgeous in photos I could tell you that firsthand I've used this and I've T you know I've taken like hard flash photos with this foundation on it's just a showstopper it's worth every penny it's definitely one worth checking out and again I feel like not enough people talk about what an incredible formula this is I mean Valentino really nailed it with this formula look how smooth that is no texture there's no increase on like my skin texture or like any fine lines or pores nothing's being brought out it's being smoothed over and just looks really Flawless easy to work with I think this is good for any and all skin types and skin ages the only thing you have to be hesitant about is the fact that there's fragrance and it is obviously a pricey Foundation it's not the most affordable in this group by any means but if you're willing to spend a little extra money on your foundation this is a really worthwhile one to check out I think it's like I said extremely underrated it looks absolutely gorgeous on it's it's longwearing and it keeps your skin looking fresh and like this pretty much all day long I recommend this for anyone like I mentioned as long as you're okay with some fragrance to your foundation would I go back out and repurchase it 100% I love love this Foundation from Valentino so once again it's the very Valentino light lasting perfecting Foundation it is just beautiful for $62 you can get a equally luxurious experience see girl on Paris terra cotta healthy glow natural Perfection found found 24-hour wear no transfer has 95% naturally derived ingredients that's really cool I love all these talking points I mean natural Perfection Foundation 24-hour wear no transfer healthy glow sign me up I've been wanting to try this Foundation since it came out it's a fairly new foundation so let's try it out together I picked up the shade 2.5n all right let's talk about this beautiful packaging this is a just a gorgeous brand overall like Geron if you see their overall their Cosmetics they're beautifully packaged I mean there's lipsticks unbelievable they're bronze everything they're just they have beautiful packaging that is for sure this is really nice it's very simple very but still says like very Luxe I'm going to shake this up I've never tried this Foundation I've always been curious about this brand in general and I'm starting to slowly like buy more products from this brand and I'm just really excited to try this I really hope I picked out a good shade let's find out together and yeah I mean I'm very excited okay I going try to contain my excitement I'm very very excited for this Foundation right now let's do two pumps all right so it's not like the S it's not like a super runny Foundation it's like in between I am going to apply it with my N7 and first things first doesn't have fragrance all right that's good that is good and it's $62 62 bucks okay all right shade is good thankfully I am so happy now I can actually wear this Foundation all right so it definitely looks beautiful it definitely has a a nice glowy finish to it very skin-like very healthy it's I was going to say it's not the easiest to blend blend in my skin but actually I take that back it's not it's it's easy it's definitely easy I take that back that was like my initial thought but okay I mean that's really nice that's a really nice Foundation feels really nice it feels very lightweight the glow it's given is really nice and fresh it's not like over the top glowy the color is good thank thankfully I can actually wear this like I said I don't think it's emphasizing my texture I don't think it's emphasizing like the inner part of my cheek where I have larger pores I don't think it's the most smoothing Foundation though with that said I don't think it's like giving like an airbrush quality but it's giv a really overall healthy like I just have naturally good skin kind of finish if that makes sense it's not over-the-top blurring it's not like a filter on my skin but it's not not you know does that make sense it's like it's giving me a beautiful finish and beautiful coverage in a really natural skin-like way that's the best way to describe it I'm going to layer a little bit more my main point that I was trying to make is it's not you know it's not giving me like the most smooth complexion but it's also not making my skin look smooth it's just not giving me that fake filtered look that I'm I've been kind of used to with some of these other formulas I've tried out so just very honest real thoughts on this Foundation as it's settling onto my skin however I do think it's I'm actually liking it even more like now that it's actually like settled onto my skin I've layered a little bit more coverage which is also a good note you could definitely build up the coverage that's something to to note if you want more of a full coverage you can customize this Foundation to your needs I like that a lot I mean it looks beautiful it feels really nice it feels really really lightweight it has a very like it has a hydrating feel to it which I also really like um this is this is a great Foundation it's $62 it's not the world's most expensive but it's not the it's not the least expensive and most affordable so just up keep in mind there is no fragrance so if you're someone who's looking for like a high-end foundation and you were interested in these and the fact that these have fragrance has maybe like check them off your list in terms of like if you're going to buy them or not then you should definitely spend an extra two bucks and try the girl on cuz it looks to me it looks equally as beautiful as those other ones but in a different way I mean it looks gorgeous it looks beautiful I'm curious to see what the wear time is going to be since I've never actually worn this all day but you know again I have to just touch on this one more time as it settled onto my skin it really is looking very smooth and very beautiful the fact that it does not contain any fragrance is probably a really big selling point in my opinion if you're looking for a luxury brand Foundation I think this would be good for all skin types young oily combo dry it doesn't matter this is going to be a universally uh well-received formula that most people most anyone could use on their skin ooh just notice that that's beautiful that's just like the bronzer that's gorgeous what I purchase this again 100% am I are you going to see me wearing this on my channel and on my Instagram my social media definitely so be prepared I'm curious to see if my thoughts are going to change in any way as I continue to wear it and test it out but my initial thoughts is it's a really really beautiful foundation and I'm really excited to try it out more so I mean look at that it's absolutely beautiful on jumping up to the $68 price range we are slowly climbing our way to the most expensive Foundation that you could buy in Sephora and I I actually can't wait to get there I can't wait to get there okay so very excited we're making our way there this one's from Wester it's the vital skin Foundation stick it's a stick Foundation it's a cream form basically I picked up the shade atier 5 and there's not many options to choose from so just up to notes unfortunately uh wtia definitely needs to be a lot more inclusive to say the least their shade range is not the most ideal it just is not so I even had a hard time figuring out which shade to choose from so let's hope that I chose wisely let's talk with the packaging first things first the packaging just like all Westman Tilla products is super Lux super high-end you can feel the expensive Vibes on this product like I can feel the money that is put into this packaging that price tag that you're paying for West Mia products is more than likely due to the incredible packaging just my opinion and what I've learned from trying to make products on my own in the industry is packaging cost a ton of money a ton of money so formula wise I know their formulas are still like really incredible and they have they have amazing products okay but their prices are pretty outrageous like let's be real they have very expensive products my point in saying all this is really just you you get what you pay for but you also are paying a lot of extra for this very Luxe packaging okay we're going to move on we talked about packaging enough now I'm going to blend this out with my N15 brush with BK Beauty this is a cream formula I like to really buff creams into my skin and you know if I use a flat brush you could absolutely use my N7 as well but this is going to kind of pack on product as well whereas this one's going to kind of Shear it out a little bit more and with this formula is more of a thick Foundation I want to just get in there and really work it into my skin and see how it performs okay Blends in Easy kind of feel like the coverage is not very H it's kind of misleading it goes on super thick but then it Blends out to be very natural I'm starting to understand what the hype is about this Foundation a lot of people that I know love this Foundation now the shade's a little off it's a little too warm it's a little too running yellow on my complexion I wish there had I wish they had more like Olive undertones or like neutral Olive undertones to choose from they don't I feel like I did the best I could as far as choosing a shade for myself but let's talk about how that Blended out it took 2 seconds like I went boom boom boom and it was done blend it out it did blend out to be you know a little more sheer to be quite honest it could be the brush shearing it out cuz I said I wanted more of a natural finish to like this cream product so let's do a little test okay I'm going to do another swipe and then we're going to blend it out with my more flat and 17 brush all right so that definitely gave a more of a natural finish which fluffier brushes do give a natural finish that's like the beauty of them so if you want to Shear out a more full full coverage product use a fluffy brush it will diffuse it it will give it more of a natural skin-like appearance if you want to maintain coverage and pack on coverage you would use a stiffly motion like this right now with more of a flat brush and that's going to help to maintain that coverage okay so that tells me that the product is obviously very versatile you can get two different finishes with the same product just by using different tools to apply and blend it out either way it Blends out really easy really quick doesn't feel heavy even for being a stick cream foundation those tend to be just by Nature heavier and they tend to look heavier on your skin cuz they just tend to like they they're thick they're that's just the reality of them they're thick they tend to look a little more heavy a little more cakey if you don't prep your skin properly this does not have that this gives a really smooth effect like all around here I feel like my skin looks really smooth and really Flawless very easy to work with very easy to blend on I am going to be using this quite a bit I'm I'm excited to see that I feel like anyone could use this and wear this and appreciate it even if you have mature skin and it doesn't matter what your skin type is I think this is going to be a really nice cream formula for anyone that is looking for a cream formula so dry mature oily combo you name it young like I said anybody can wear this foundation and probably make it work for them it is a little pricey something to take into consideration I think this is a really nice travel friendly Foundation cuz it isn't a stick it's on a liquid so you could throw it in your bag you don't have to worry about leaking or being messy you could just kind of swipe it on on the go so if you're someone who's on the go or just has limited time for your makeup application and your complexion products check this out if does that make sense like if you have just if you want to be quick and easy and effective and gives you this beautiful finish then this is definitely definitely worth checking out with that said I highly recommend this one from westa I wish the price point wasn't so high if I'm being really honest but would I go back out and repurchase it yes I would I'm a big fan of their products they have really great stuff so so once again that is the Westman tiller vital skin Foundation stick it's beautiful we have jumped up to the $69 price range now but I have to say this is the mini size I'm about to show you this is $48 I believe for the mini size the full size of the Armani luminous silk is $69 so just putting that out there I love my minis it my mini last me for so so long now if you're not new to my channel you're going to already know why I love this foundation and you're not going to be surprised to hear the reasons why I'm about to tell you this is one of the best foundations on the market period like just it is one of the top five foundations in general this is my opinion but I really strongly wholeheartedly believe in it this is the one Foundation that is always in my Pro kit I've used this for so many years now I can't even tell you and it's the one Foundation that I will always have in my Pro kit to use on all my clients so it doesn't matter who is sitting in my chair they could be people that I've never met before never seen before in my entire life mature young acne prone texture any kind of skin issues I will put this foundation on everyone everyone now my skin prep and the way I set it looks different for depending on who I'm working with and who I'm applying this on but overall there's really not one person I've met that does not like this Foundation or does not look beautiful in this foundation so with that said let's apply the Armani luminous silk I wear the shade personally 5.75 this is a really good almost exact match for my skin tone this Foundation I'm going to shake it you should always shake it there's a reason why this Foundation is so universally loved not just by makeup artists like this is a staple for most makeup artists in their professional kit you'd be hard pressed not to find a working makeup artist that hasn't used this and more than likely loves this foundation for the reasons that I listed it just works good on everybody everybody it looks good on anyone I I just I love this foundation so much I'm going to try to move on from Fang growing this foundation and actually apply to my skin so you can see what it looks like on my skin and why I love it I'm going to apply two pumps and definitely going to apply this with my N7 this is a dream combo so let's apply my 5.75 in the Armani luminous silk so here's the thing about this Foundation okay first of all it Blends itself it melts into your skin like butter like butter it has such an adjustable coverage to it which is again one of the reasons why I love it so much in my proit is I could get such a variety of looks out of this Foundation I could Shear it out to be a super lightweight like a titto moisturizer type look to the Finish I could build it up so easily this Foundation layers so well and it looks here I actually this is the biggest reason why I love this Foundation okay I have seen this foundation and what it looks like from uh like 700 in the morning on a shoot till like 700 p.m. at night at the end of a shoot or even later I've I've worn this Foundation I've applied this foundation on so many of my clients whether their models their talent their actresses I put this on everybody I have to stress this okay I put this on everybody and the way this looks after like a 10 plus hour day it looks unreal good on your skin it just looks amazing so I think that's actually when I really truly think about why I love this foundation so much and why I'm such a huge huge fan of it is not for me personally but really like all the reasons why I love it the most are based on how it looks on my clients and how I've seen it perform on set how it photographs how it looks on video how it looks in day-to-day life in person for like events for my clients but more importantly the biggest thing is how it wears this Foundation wears as if it's a longwear foundation with like a 24-hour claim it wears just like that without all those claims and without feeling like a 24-hour mattifying longwear Foundation it really does give you the most healthy luminous glow to your skin but it's not over the toop glowy so this allows me or this has allowed me to always use this on like even my oiliest skin clients cuz if anything it's a really nice combination to apply this more hydrating formula on top of oily skin cuz it almost balances out that oil production on a lot of my clients to have more oily skin I I lose my breath cuz I could talk about this foundation so much I really do I got to stop now if it's not enough that I could tell you firsthand in real life this Foundation wears magically it looks just as good after a 10 12h hour day then I don't know what else to tell you to get you try this Foundation it really is a showstopping second skin like finish it is so versatile it looks good on everyone and it works for everyone and I can tell you that whole hardly because I've experienced it and I've used it in my kit for years and years and years so so there's just not one complaint I have about this Foundation if I had to complain about anything it's the fact that I run out of it so often because I use it so much in my kit and it is very very pricey let's be real it is quite pricey I only carry the minis in my kit now for many reasons it's just more convenient it takes uh a lot less weight and a lot less space in my Pro kit and for me personally there's nothing easier than like throwing this in my makeup bag when I'm doing my makeup on the go or if I'm doing my makeup in general it doesn't take up a bunch of of real estate right and it's just more affordable so there's that too but full size is $69 the mini size right here is 48 this is in my top five of my all-time favorite what I think are the best foundations that money can buy you literally so would I go back out and repurchase it yes I think I bought like close to bottles at this point in my the span of my career so yes I will definitely repurchase it as I have been for a long time now okay so to wrap this up I highly recommend the Armani Lum silk that is an understatement clearly but this is a Gorgeous showstopping foundation look at that it's just stunning also for $69 it is one that I've surprisingly never tried never tried it always wanted to there was a first time for everything today is that day I'm going to try the Pat McGrath Labs skin fetish Sublime Perfection Foundation I am so excited decided to try this Foundation I can't even tell you it's it's long long overdue the shade that I picked out is light medium 14 now I did choose this shade on the website so wish me luck you know it's always a gamble choosing online little note that it says on the side it's a buildable perfecting coverage weightless texture Sublime satin finish love that Runway tested love that mother approved love I mean you had me at hello you basically had me at hello um I am so excited to try this let's get this out of this I mean this is not scream Lux this screams I'm a $69 bottle of foundation this is like so high-end so Lux love the label glass bottle the cap come on I'm a sucker for packaging you have good beautiful packaging that looks like somewhat vintage just take all my money just to here take it all all right has a pump let's pump it out and let's try this out definitely a more runny texture I don't think it's fragrance I'm not smelling anything I could be losing my sense of smell after all this Foundation but no I'd say this is unscented ooh all right shade's a little teeny bit teeny bit too dark but I can make it work blending out really nice feels like second skin feels very very lightweight I mean really doesn't feel like anything at all to be honest it feels like I'm putting again a serum on my skin it doesn't have that heavy Foundation feeling at all it's actually surprisingly very I mean it's not sheer cuz it's giving me coverage so it's not actually sheer but it feels like it just feels like I'm not wearing anything honestly it feels like I don't have anything on my skin right now it's definitely melted into my skin I'm going to layer it a little bit more because I want to see if I can get a touch more coverage all right this is nice okay all right now I'm understanding the hype around pagr foundations I've been told for so many years let's let's actually talk about what this looks like on my skin because it looks like juicy Flawless Perfection it's definitely smoothing My overall my skin definitely feels overall I'm sorry it looks overall more smooth in this area it has melted into my skin to be honest it feel feels and looks very similar to my Armani luminous silk I think this is like a really good comparison as to what it looks like and feels like overall like the the foundation just feels very much like my Armani so I definitely love it it's not quite the same as my Armani to be honest I can't pinpoint what it is I mean I don't know it looks just like it to be honest I take that back it looks just like it it's gorgeous it Blends in fairly easy it's not the quickest blend into your skin but it's also not difficult by any stretch of the imagination it's feeling really nice really lightweight it's got that buildable coverage this is a nice high-end Foundation this is a really good formula I I can't think of one thing I don't like about this Foundation to be quite honest and I mean it looks beautiful like look at that it looks absolutely perfect on my skin the shade's a little too dark and it's throwing me off a teeny bit but that's my fault but all in all I'd say this is a really great formula for anyone I can't think of anyone this won't work well for even if you have mature skin mature oily skin mature dry skin I think that anybody could wear this formula obviously Young complexion could wear this easily yeah I mean those are my thoughts this is a beautiful Foundation I'm disappointed myself that I've never tried it until today so at least that day has finally come would I recommend this 100% I definitely recommend this for anyone looking for a beautiful more buildable luxurious foundation and it's unscented so that also helps too for anyone out there who is sensitive to fragrance this is a beautiful beautiful Foundation would I go back out and repurchase it yes I wish I purchase it sooner I feel like I've been missing out for many years now so that is the Pat McGrath skin fetish Sublime Perfection Foundation it is the Armani power fabric Foundation now I've actually never tried this one on my face I've only ever swatched it inside of a Sephora and I've never uh I don't know I've just never committed to buying it for some reason just cuz I'm always so thrilled with my luminous silk I'm like why am I going to buy another Armani formula I don't know what the mindset is to that cuz you would think that I was to just go for anything Armani complexion wise but here we are so first time I'm trying it it's the power fabric weightless matte foundation it's an up to 24-Hour wear it has SPF 25 now I couldn't find the shade 5.75 in the power Fabric and I did not see it online unless I really just missed it so I end up getting the shade six we're going to see what this looks like on I know that six in the Armani luminous silk is a very very Olive undertone so Olive that it's actually too Olive for my complexion but let's test this out let's see what this looks like on beautiful packaging this is actually what the full size bottle of the Luminous silk looks like as well so just for ref reference uh glass bottle nice cap it's Armani it's luxurious let's try it on weightless matte foundation for up to 24 hour wear how have I not tried this what is my problem why have I not tried this let's get into this okay let's shake it up let's try it out for the first time together let's enjoy this third to last Foundation that is sold at Sephora I'm going to do two pumps really like one and a half to be honest I'm going to dip into it this is not this has a very very very very very faint fragrance like almost undetectable all right so again this is the shade six and this does look just like the six that I have in the Luminous silk it's not a bad match for me it's just ever so slightly too Olive for my complexion complexion matching is difficult there's so many nuances to it so this is one of those situations where in theory it should match me perfect but it's just slightly little too slightly Olive for me wow okay let's talk about how this just melt into my skin with minimal effort I just kind of went back and forth swoop swooped and we're done okay texture is amazing I mean like just so smooth so perfecting wow this is a very very perfecting Foundation let me look it up close yeah I mean it's very very smoothing and again this is like my problem area of my cheek where I do have like you you could just see my pores they're more noticeable the coverage is beautiful I it's very very lightweight very like feels very lightweight on my skin really really easy to to blend on like wow you could just be a a total even for someone who like struggles to blend their foundation on like let's say you have a difficult time I feel like this is just a really easy Foundation to blend into your skin it really like melts into my skin honestly like butter I know I use that reference a lot I love that reference for makeup but it's true it just melt it in like butter quick easy it definitely has yeah it definitely has a self- setting aspect to it so this would be good if you you know like to minimally powder your complexion products to in order to set them them this has like a nice uh self- setting aspect to it which is always great that's you'll find a lot with like more longwear like 24-hour claim foundations is they do have a self-setting aspect to them which are really nice because it just they kind of grip to your skin they lock in there they self set and then you're allowed to just kind of set it with minimal powder to really keep it in place so it's a really good thing to point out I think if you're looking for a good medium to full coverage wow that just looks like airbrush perfection and the more I look at this Foundation as it's drying down fully on my skin it's gorgeous it is a gorgeous gorgeous Foundation I don't know why why have I not tried this until now why that's stunning okay let's talk about who this is for I think this is for anyone I don't think there's one person that cannot benefit from wearing this Foundation if you are someone who is looking for an all day more Satin to matte finish with your foundation and you want that longevity specifically then you have to check this formula out I don't care if you have dry skin I don't care if you have mature skin oily skin o skin even better cuz it has that more matte finish to it this is definitely one to check out and I'm so disappointed myself for not trying it until today but here we are we made it it's okay Gorgeous foundation I highly recommend this one from Armani yes it's pricey but this formula is I mean just like the Luminous soak they're both so so worth the money I promise you I'd be shocked if you if you got that product and you didn't like it leave me your comments either way but this is beautiful highly recommend this one would I go back out and repurchase this one yes and I should probably I wish they made this one on the mini but they don't make this formula in the mini otherwise I would say I'd stock this up in my Pro kit but I don't know maybe I'll still get some shades and just kind of mix them in my kit that's gorgeous all right we're going to move on I love Armani it's no surprise once again that is the Armani power fabric weightless matte foundation that is just Flawless in a bottle and so beautiful as I mentioned this second to last one can you believe it if you have been with me since the beginning of this video I wish I could give you a big hug thank you for hanging on I know it's a long one but hopefully it's like very valuable information that you're getting if you're choosing a foundation this video is definitely for you the second to last expensive Foundation that I'm going to test out that is sold at Sephora is from Gucci and oddly enough you would expect Gucci to be even more money in my I don't know why I just would assume to be like a higher price tag but for $69 you can get the Gucci 24hour breathable Foundation luminous matte finish we're not going to get into that I've heard actually this is a beautiful Foundation I'm really excited and anxious to try it for myself in the back does it have any other claims not really okay oh actually it does 24-hour wear no transfer full coverage weightless breathable texture comfort and hydration luminous matte finish Shine Control and that's it okay not not not tons of claims I picked up the shade 260w it's a medium Fair shade let's try out this Gucci Foundation all right let's look at this packaging O Beautiful packaging very on brand with Gucci frosted bottle feels Lux very heav let's shake this up and let's just take in the fact that we only have this foundation and one more to go I feel like I've been here for a really long I have been here a really long time days have gone by to be fully honest with you it's a new day I think I filmed this video over like the course of 3 days my third day two days my second full day all day we've been here all day I'm going to pump this out on the top of my hand let's do two pumps ooh a little more runny it's fragranced okay smells like a like a fresh Light perfume it's fragrance though just so you know let's apply the second to last Foundation oh the shade's not ideal but let's blend it in to my skin and see where we're at yeah the shade's a little bit too warm on me I do think I can make it work and to be honest after $69 like spending $69 on this and buying a Gucci Foundation I will make it work so if you see me using it even though I just said that it's not the most ideal match don't be surprised you'll know why okay but also in reality this is a beautiful Foundation that melt into my skin very well very minimal effort involved in terms of like blending into my skin the texture is really stunning the texture of this Foundation is really really quite stunning this definitely has a smoothing quality to it that is like instantly visible I instantly saw a smoothing effect happening right here great coverage I don't feel like I need to even dip into more but I'm just going to dip into more just cuz let's see how it layers you know it's always good to see how this build up and layers onto your skin I'm going to tap in some more coverage and just kind of layer it on top of the areas I would want more coverage which is always like right here on my cheek cheek and wow I mean what pores I feel like my pores are completely gone with this Foundation it is extremely extremely smoothing on my skin that is to say the least I mean it looks beautiful you know the color is not the greatest but it's actually not that bad I think I was being a little too hard on it I can make it work the feeling of it is really nice it's very very lightweight it's 100% breathable like it says it is I'm anxious to see how how long this would wear for an entire day so I will have to Circle back with my my thoughts on that as I wear it you know as I continue to try this formula out and to wear it all day I'll definitely keep you posted if my thoughts change but my first reaction my first initial thoughts are this is gorgeous uh way to go Gucci you definitely did not disappoint with this formula it is just beautiful and to be honest it feels very similar to these two foundations in terms of like how long wearing it is the amount of coverage and also it feels very similar to this hourglass one as well so just for like some reference for you yeah it's beautiful but to wrap this up I think this is a really easy formula to work with it Blended on super well the Finish is just stunning if you're someone who wants more of a smoothing effect to your foundation let's say you have more large pores some skin texture or issues like that definitely check out this formula because it does give you that instant blurring and smoothing effect right here with that said I think it'd be an amazing formula for mature skin if you want like a really smooth Flawless look to your skin definitely check this one out in fact I don't think there's there's really not one skin type or skin age I think this Foundation would not work for so with that said I think it's really nice and universally flattering and uh workable for so many different people would I go back out and repurchase this one I would I definitely would I still think I picked out the best shade that was available for myself to be quite honest and once again I recommend this for anyone I think that anyone could wear this and would probably absolutely love it cuz how can you not love how smooth and Flawless that is it's gorgeous it's definitely one to check out for sure so once again that is the Gucci 24-hour breathable Foundation luminous matte finish I mean this says it all right here are you ready for this last Foundation are you ready for the final foundation in this huge haul of Foundations I literally bought every single Foundation that I could find at Sephora online and in store so I think I covered I'm I'm hoping I covered every single one you know let me know if there's one I forgot or that I missed I don't know how I would cuz I went to so many different Sephora stores in store and I shopped online multiple times so with that said this is the final Foundation it is the most expensive Foundation that you could purchase at a Sephora this is from La Mer are we surprised I'm not I knew it I knew when I was shopping this video when I was looking for the foundations when I was buying all of them and adding to my cart I knew the most expensive one was going to be I was not surprised so when this lamir popped up I was like $149 gets worse it's $149 and somewhere in like my mind of like I kind of just lost my mind after buying so many foundations and like I literally just like scrolled for hours and in store swatching this was a journey let me tell you this was like probably the most it was the most challenging to film out of all these series out of the blush one the bronzer the highlighter out of the drugstore ones that I've done this was the most intense to film this was definitely the most intense to get done with that said I got excited and I think I just got like delirious and I thought you know what I've always want to put lamir in my kit so I I bought three of these I bought full disclosure this is going to go in my kit my this is definitely going in my Pro kit right after this video it's going to goop I'm going to pop it in my Pro kit I already have two in there right now I used it I have to be honest with you I already used the foundation I've already tested it out I just got to be really honest with you cuz I can't lie I already tested it out I used it on a client and she loved it I loved it I'm a huge fan now let me show you why this is beautiful listen is it worth $149 beautiful that's going to be a matter of opinion and I love it I'm really appreciative that I have it in my kit I am a pretty much obsessed with it the only thing I don't like about it is how unbelievably expensive it is so without further Ado the last foundation in this huge Haul is the lamir soft fluid longwear foundation this has an SPF 20 in it the shade that I'm going to be applying is 310 beige it's beautiful let me shake it up and let me show you how gorgeous this Foundation is on I'm going to pump two pumps two small pumps not not like two complete pumps but two small pumps on the top of my hand I am going to take a now clean N7 this definitely has fragrance to it just a forewarning but the fragrance is like it almost smells like a vanilla fruit like a fruity Vanilla Clean fruity with a little hint of like little hint of vanilla like vanilla bean almost it's nice I like it I love the way it smells if this was a perfume I would definitely wear it so this Foundation when I tell you this looks like your skin but immaculate and like undetectable it's unbelievable okay and since this is a last Foundation I'm going to be covering my red nose and I'm going to show you what this looks like pretty much all over but you're going to see first hand how easy it is to blend on your skin minimal minimal effort this really truly does melt into your skin again I know I love this reference but it melts into your skin like butter I'm going to apply it over here oh it feels so good to have foundation on this side of my face so let's talk about the Finish okay the Finish like I said it's like imagine your skin but just way better it gives you this gorgeous coverage without looking like you have coverage on so it's very like it's magical it's basically magical is what I'm trying to say it blends with ease the way it looks in person forget about it gorgeous it looks like you just have Flawless smooth skin without feeling like you have a heavy foundation on your skin that's weighing you down it's extremely buildable and again I could tell you this firsthand cuz I built this up on my client in certain areas that we need a little bit more coverage where I didn't necessarily want to go and apply an actual concealer it is very longwearing just like it says it says it's a longwearing foundation and it really is it stays put on your skin extremely well I put this on my client we had very very long days we were running around taking Ubers to different locations taking photos running around basically and it stfe put and looked so gorgeous from morning beginning of application to nighttime after dinner and drinks and all all the things it stayed put and looked so so gorgeous so I can tell you firsthand I've tried it I've tested it I've seen what it looks like I've played with it in every single which way it looks gorgeous on the skin all throughout the day so that alone to me is worth is somewhat worth the price tag and somewhat justifies the price tag it's definitely scented like I mentioned so if that's a a deal breaker for you then you're going to want to skip this one and good for you you'll be able to save some money if you don't mind some nice light and just like fresh smelling foundation on your skin that does dissipate throughout the day it's not like it's a perfume where you smell it all throughout the day it definitely dies down it's like an instant that smells lovely and then before you know it it's gone but look how beautiful my skin looks it doesn't it's like feather lightweight like literally doesn't feel heavy at all it melts into your skin it doesn't oxidize it wears all day it doesn't crease it doesn't emphasize texture it's like a glass skin and smooth skin in a bottle it's like it's just H what else can I say about it I mean I didn't really want to love this Foundation because I was so bitter about the price tag just to be really honest with you but I can't help but love it I can't help it I love it it's definitely one I'm going to keep in my Pro kit and it's definitely one that I'm going to keep uh continu to use for sure and honestly maybe I'll just keep this one for myself no I need this in my kit I need that in my kit the shade is like perfect so with that all said is it the most affordable foundation at Sephora absolutely not is it ridiculously overpriced I absolutely but is it gorgeous on and easy to work with and longwearing it looks just as floss as it did in the beginning as it does at the end of the day yes so if you're looking for those type of things and you want to treat yourself to a really highend extremely beautiful extremely luxurious experience to your foundation then I honestly highly recommend you check out the lmir foundation there's not one skin type that I don't think this would work well with oily dry combo mature young universally gorgeous is a reason why I bought two more and put them in my kit I'm so happy to have them in my kit I'm going to be definitely buying some more this is the most expensive Foundation that you could buy at Sephora but in my opinion dare I say it's completely worth it it is completely completely worth it cuz look at that look at that healthy glowy skin-like natural finish foundation and the best part it's longwearing and it's going to stay put highly recommend this one once again it's just gorgeous it's just absolutely Perfection okay that wraps up this very long haul trying every single Foundation that is sold at Sephora again both in store and online comment below I would love to hear what Foundation interested you the most and if you can leave me a top three I'm so curious to see what your top three would be that you saw me test out in this video comment below and if you like videos like this I have plenty more where this came
