Hi guys! Update: I tried the lightest shade on it's own the next day and the same exact thing happened...I'm still trying to make this work somehow but I don't think mixing shades had anything to do with the patchiness. Will do a full update on April 9! xx
I still want to try it, even with the patchy discoloration 🙈🙉🙊 hoping I can make it work with a good primer. I bought the wNw mega cushion last night because it looked so good on you and it is amazing considering it cost $8.
I really loved the way this looked when I put it on my skin but it caused me to massively break out with cystic acne. I even made sure to thoroughly wash my face when I got home and still broke out.
My boyfriend looked over and says "Oh look babe it's your favorite person!" I said your damn right. I can't stop watching your videos Taylor, you are such a genuine soul. Keep up the hard work we love youuuu!
Seriously how tf is this channel still at only 500k??? Best beauty youtuber of all time in my opinion!! And I mean damn 15 DAYS!!! Of freaking foundation!!!! No one else is helping their chickies out like that!!!!
I've been using this foundation for a couple of weeks and like it quite a bit. When I first tried it, my skin was dry and it clung to EVERYTHING. My skin was back to normal within a few days and then it wore fine. I have acne marks so I don't like how the matteness looks on those areas on my face for the first few hours. I've been mixing it with UD's Naked skin foundation and the combo is AMAZING. I use the shade Ivory and it doesn't oxidize on me
I just bought this foundation in Ivory the other day because LA Girl is finally at my Ulta. By default, I always go for the lightest shade, and Ivory looks pretty light in the bottle. It didn’t oxidize on me because I almost never have an issue with foundations oxidizing. This foundation isn’t patchy on me, either, but it’s definitely not full coverage; I’d say it’s a solid medium as it doesn’t completely cover my acne. What I love about this foundation is the natural matte finish; it looks like skin, not cakey. The foundation also does a good job at keeping me shine-free all day in conjunction with setting powder and setting spray.
I have this foundation, and it's currently my favorite for combo skin! It doesn't oxidize on me or get super patchy, but it will cling to any rough or dry patches on the skin (I need to over moisturize and/or exfoliate on the regular for it to look the smoothest!) Only thing is I believe I have beige, which is the complete wrong undertone for me. It stills looks fine with all products on it together but it isn't the best. I usually moisturize with Murad or Cetaphil first, then use Nyx's "Honey Dew Me Up" or Mario Badescus Aloe Vero spray. I then top it off with primer of choice, which tends to be the Stila 3-in-1 primer (I think that's what its called?). This is one of the ways it looks best for my skin. I also use Mac Fix Plus (the coconut one) to help it all melt in. I prefer this over the Revlon foundation I just tried, which rubs off and clings to places I'm not even that dry in. Glad to see your take on it though! It probably isn't best on dry skin and better on oily, just like you said. :)
I've been wanting to say this in your other 15 days videos but keep forgetting. I love how you are letting us know about the shade range in every foundation. I love how you are making comments on that whether it's good or bad. I feel like not enough RUclipsrs do this. I know there are some, but not enough to make a big impact! It's raining outside and I get to binge watch these videos! I'd say it's a good day!
I have super oily skin and usually foundations break up after a few hours. I try to only use one layer since it does not look good built up. But when I use a smoothing primer underneath and apply it with a sponge, I love the way it holds up throughout the day! Hope this helps someone out there with oily skin as well:)
It looks like it's oxidizing on your dry patches? I'd suggest with any matte foundation that you try, besides really moisturizing the hell out of your skin, add a drop of two of beauty oil to your skin as well before the foundation and that might help. I have oily/combo skin and even I do that and it seems to help with dry spots
I got this foundation and i have very oily skin and by the end of the day it was very oily and patchy on my forehead and nose, loved it for the first few hours though
I mixed thisone in Ivory with my It Cosmetics CC Creamin Fair (1:2 ratio) & it really helped lighten the CC cream & control how dewy/sticky the CC cream is on my oily/ combo skin! Love the combo 😊
I mix ivory and natural, pump & half of ivory and half pump natural. I have oily skin and I really like this foundation, Ive been using it for about two weeks. I did not have issues with it being patching or darkening.
Natalie Dvorak hooow! what primers do you use? I am oily af & it separated early in the day not even through one class I was shiny! I really want it to work
wow sorry to hear that, I hate when my foundation separates. I actually dont use a primer with this foundation. This also controls my oils pretty well, i guess it just goes to show how differently foundations can work on different people. I just use a moisturizer (currently Neutrogena® Hydro Boost Gel-Cream), its really important to make sure the moisturizer is well absorbed before putting on this foundation or else the foundation will react weird with it and be patchy.
I have this foundation and in my opinion, it is very scented! I do like it but I agree about the patchiness and it does oxidize. I do love how it sets though without having to set with a powder.
I commented earlier on Nikkia Joy's video that u guys need to get together so u can try out her lashes. She specially formulated them for sensitive eyes so they may work out well for u!
Yayyy Taylor! I hardly ever catch your videos at upload time because I'm in Scotland 😂👍 Love 15 Days of Foundation, I watch every morning having my breakfast! I think what you're doing with Project Beauty Share is inspiring and very empowering to women 💖👑 You should be so proud of what you have accomplished. P.S your skin is looking great, I'm so happy for you!
Looove that Smashbox contour palette. I have totally used up the highlighter setting my undereye and its the best product Ive ever used for that. I wear that bronzer everyday and gonna run out soon. I love the contour too but don't really contour that often.
I think the dark patches is the foundation sticking to your dry skin areas. I have super dry skin and that's what happens to me with many foundations. I have to exfoliate really well then moisturizer, then hydrating primer to help. Dry skin sucks
Hi, cosmetic chemist here. I left a comment on one of your other recent foundation videos trying to dispel the sunscreen=flashback myth. I hope after seeing exactly what I was talking about in this video, you’ll take he time to learn what albedo is, and help end the circulation of this piece of misinformation. People might otherwise avoid sunscreen because they think “SPF” is a single thing that is more reflective in photos than the actual pigments when it wld require a very concentrated application of a *certain kind* of sunscreen to see that effect. 👍🏻
I love mixing this foundation with the nars all radiant foundation and i love the finish!!! One pump of each foundation ❤️ i use smashbox primer oil and benefit porefessional in pearl!
Picked up the W&W cushion foundation you reviewed. Great daytime foundation and the shade I got matched. Thank you. Please do a video on your eye look. It's gorgeous! 😍💕
I have dry skin and have been using it for about 2 weeks and have not experienced any weird patchiness like you did. I do prep my skin very well because it is matte. On the days i have used my Elf spf of 50 I noticed that it oxidized like crazy but not with other primers. It was weird. Anyway I love the entire look today. That eyeshadow palette is stunning😍
Whatever you're doing with your lighting in this video is amazing- it was great to be able to see exactly the spots where it was oxidizing and clinging in such great detail.
I tried this two days in a row last week and when I first applied it I really liked it. Mine didn’t oxidize or get patchy nearly as much as yours but by the end of the night it was so dry that it was making my skin peel. I tried it the second day because I had been out in the sun so I wasn’t sure if the peeling was from that or the foundation but I exfoliated and moisturized that night and the peeling went away. I was inside the entire next day with it on and the same thing happened so I know it was from the foundation. I have combo skin so I can’t imagine what this foundation would do to anyone with even slightly dry skin.
So early! Love you, and love this series. Thank you for working so hard on these videos and the Beauty Wishes campaign. You’re an inspiration!❤️❤️❤️🌯🌯🌯
I love how you always do these watches of different colors and compare them two foundations or other products we already know. I wish everyone did that
Just so you know, you are the BEST foundation reviewer! I have oily skin and still watch yours because they are so thorough and informative! Greatly appreciated! ❤
I use Dr. Bronners to clean my brushes and sponges too! It cuts through the caked foundation and concealer like magic. I have peppermint but I think I'll try tea tree next if they have it.
she appears lighter on camera. I thought I was her shade but she said the Maybelline instant age rewind was her perfect match and I can use it as a subtle bronze. she has a whole video of foundations that are too light for her (which I reference weekly lol).
She did say one or two days ago that she’s a little darker than she was. I had got confused too when she reviewed the Dior Forever Undercover on day one because I have it and it’s way too dark, yet looked fine on her.
I think because the Accutane causes significant redness, her face seems darker. Also, everyone’s (for the most part due to elements, ie: sun exposure) face is usually darker than the rest of their body. I match my foundation (and client’s) to the neck.
Didn't get a notification, this didn't show up in my subscription box, I couldn't even find it on your channel at first! Needless to say, I will search high and low for a new Taylor video! Darn RUclips! 😂😂😂 But thank God I finally got here!🌯❤🌯❤
44GlenCoCo This has been happening to me a lot this week, not just with Taylor’s videos. I’ll see a link on Twitter to a video and be able to watch it, but that video won’t be in my subscription box for 20+ minutes after it is published.
I have this foundation in natural. It does not oxidize on me or get patchy. I actually love it! I have normal to dry skin and, since it's a matte, I do spray some Smashbox primer water over top. Also, I use primer oil and the Laura Geller champagne spackle under it.
sarahwithstars that's the small white mixer like the concealer??? Yes I have that... It says highlighter on it... Saw it when I got home 😐 way 2 luminous!
Reena Love - no, it's the normal foundation of the whole line just in white. Taylor held it up. The highlighter is a separate thing (which is a really pretty highlight actually). The NYX one is definitely matte, and it's pretty good.
i have the two shades you used and was also thoroughly confused when i first tried them 😂 still need to return ‘natural’, it’s just way too dark for me since it does oxidize. the lightest shade i think i’m going to keep?? idk haha it’s hard for me to tell whether or not i like it. i have oily/combo skin and the oil control on this isn’t the best, and i don’t like that it transfers. have you heard about the catrice waterproof drops? i wonder if it can help any foundations become water-resistant and/or transfer-resistant. i would love to get a review from you! ❤️
I've been enjoying your channel for quite some time now. One of the reasons being, you seem knowledgeable and honest, your personality is not over the top or phony! Please don't change these positive features as your channel grows!
I’m selfishly wishing you still had oily skin, as I totally rely on your reviews to buy foundations! 😅😅 But then I’m so happy for you that your skin looks bomb! 😍
What the hell is happening with this foundation? It oxidizes in patches... WEIRD. Edit: Just watched Amy Macedo's video on this and it was hella patchy on her too.
i recently tried this one and alone i didn’t care for it, i totally know what you mean about the patchy-ness, same thing happened to me. however i’ve been mixing it with the maybelline super stay foundation and the two mixed together is so good, i love it.
I like both the la girl foundations. I've had no problem with patchiness. I have dry skin and both work on my skin. The matte version can get a little dry through the day but not more than any foundation really. It reminds me a little of the new maybelline super-stay. I always use a sponge and make sure I'm well moisturized as always. Idk it just goes to show how products work differently for people. I think it's definitely worth a try!
Nicole Ritz thank you. I have seen that video and I did notice that she mentioned rosehip oil for her acne scarring. Just wanted to know if it's the rosehip oil or has she tried anything else that is helping her with those acne marks?
Riya B because Accutane is a large dose of vitamin A, like Retin A, except oral, it causes quicker cell turnover, thus helping to fade hyper pigmentation more quickly. If you’re not on Accutane, there are many, many products on the market that help to fade post acne “marks” quicker. I say marks, because they are not scars, as scars don’t really go away. Retinol, acids (BHA, AHA, lactic acid, etc.) vitamin C serums, and moisturizers with specific ingredients for fading hyper pigmentation can be found at your local drugstore. Just make sure you always patch test (use a little on your jaw, about the size of a dime and wait 24 hours to see if you have a reaction before using it all over your face).
Headhotdog thank you so much for taking the time to reply :-) appreciated. So many people noticed my comment and tried helping in their own way but the one for whom this question was never bothered to reply. Thanks thatayalla :-)
If this happens, Why don't you just take it off completely and just put on the lighter shade... I think like this a foundation doesn't have the best chance.
Can I just say how much I love your uploads! You're just a total straight up, no need for stupid editing effects and informative reviewer and I really appreciate it ❤
Re: the L.A. Girl sponges... you can also buy them in a 2pk for $10 on the HB Beauty Bar site. I've ordered from them 3x and they're great! They individually bubble wrap every polish and pack well. I highly recommend the site AND those sponges.
Hi guys! Update: I tried the lightest shade on it's own the next day and the same exact thing happened...I'm still trying to make this work somehow but I don't think mixing shades had anything to do with the patchiness. Will do a full update on April 9! xx
thataylaa I was just thinking if you wore one shade alone if it would work lol maybe it was that frosted glass container ;)
thataylaa hey! It’s definitely the accutane because this happens to me with certain foundations!
thataylaa Bummer, I had hopes!!
I still want to try it, even with the patchy discoloration 🙈🙉🙊 hoping I can make it work with a good primer. I bought the wNw mega cushion last night because it looked so good on you and it is amazing considering it cost $8.

My boyfriend looked over and says "Oh look babe it's your favorite person!" I said your damn right. I can't stop watching your videos Taylor, you are such a genuine soul. Keep up the hard work we love youuuu!
My partner says the same thing haha!
My partner says “oh you watching your girlfriend again?” 😂
Gosh your skin looks so good I am so happy for you
This eye look is STUNNING.
It’s definitely the accutane causing the weird discoloration because the same thing happens to me when i use certain foundations!
Seriously how tf is this channel still at only 500k??? Best beauty youtuber of all time in my opinion!! And I mean damn 15 DAYS!!! Of freaking foundation!!!! No one else is helping their chickies out like that!!!!
Love love love 15 days of foundation! Been a baeritto since even before season 1! Thank you for all you do! 😊❤️
I just left another video to watch this because obviously 15 days of foundation is top priority! 🖤🖤🖤
SAME!!! #dedication
Haha I was watching an old one of her videos and left that to watch this lol
Same! 😂 I was re-watching her Too Faced video until I realized what time it was!
Cori Dever same

I use the shade Ivory and it doesn't oxidize on me
Kudos to your microphone coz I can hear your sponge bouncing off your face!! Hehe xxx
Love that sound!!!
Zephy Kav asmrdidibandy has several videos using a sponge and making sure to capture the sound.
i know !!! i’ve been having to mute during that part cause i just can’t handle the sound🤢
I love that sound!

The foundation also does a good job at keeping me shine-free all day in conjunction with setting powder and setting spray.
Idk if you know this but Clinique has a new face spray and it’s called moisture surge. When you feel dry you can just spray it on and it helps a ton
Shelby Elaine ooooh thanks for sharing. I need this in my life!
It’s actually not new, I’ve had it for awhile and it works really well.
I have this foundation, and it's currently my favorite for combo skin! It doesn't oxidize on me or get super patchy, but it will cling to any rough or dry patches on the skin (I need to over moisturize and/or exfoliate on the regular for it to look the smoothest!)

I love how you swatch multiple foundations next to each other. It is so nice to be able to see and compare them like this. Thank you! 💕
Can u PLEASE make a compilation video of all the clips of you blending with the sponge because the noise is so satisfying
I have super oily skin and usually foundations break up after a few hours. I try to only use one layer since it does not look good built up.

My local Walmart has the Milani palettes on display and I played with them. They are so so soft! I’m super bummed that I didn’t grab them!
Emily Bell i love them!!! apply the metallic shades with your finger, uhh they're amazing!
I mixed thisone in Ivory with my It Cosmetics CC Creamin Fair (1:2 ratio) & it really helped lighten the CC cream & control how dewy/sticky the CC cream is on my oily/ combo skin! Love the combo 😊

Same for me! No problems at all.
I have this foundation and in my opinion, it is very scented! I do like it but I agree about the patchiness and it does oxidize. I do love how it sets though without having to set with a powder.
The Milani palettes remind me of tartlette and tartlette in bloom!!
Eye look is gorgeous!! Thank you for sharing the Milani palette...I need that gold! Need.
I commented earlier on Nikkia Joy's video that u guys need to get together so u can try out her lashes. She specially formulated them for sensitive eyes so they may work out well for u!
Kandirain _117 THAT would be awesome if they did!
I've seen your comment on nikkia video!
Yes ! They would work so well !
I used the lightest shade of this foundation and it works for me with a moisturizer and primer underneath!
Yay another cruelty free one! Thank you for giving us options, I really appreciate it! (PS, would love to see this once you’re off of Accutane)
i bought the same foundation, it works great on my skin. Doesn't Oxidize, or get patchy at all..
Leila Salazar good for you. We all have different skin types and react differently to makeup products.
lol I love how she goes “ to all you high end brands without a pump, l.a girl is doing and it’s $8 “ lmao that was awesome and so freaking true
Ashley Marie I’m looking at you Estée Lauder! Lol
Yes! Can’t wait to see your thoughts. This oily girl needs a new go-to foundation.
Welp looks like I might just have to hold out for CYO to make its way to my Walgreens.
That lip is everything on you!
I have normal/ dry skin and it got patchy with me as well. I mixed it in with cover girl vitalist and it looks beautiful!
Yayyy Taylor! I hardly ever catch your videos at upload time because I'm in Scotland 😂👍
Love 15 Days of Foundation, I watch every morning having my breakfast! I think what you're doing with Project Beauty Share is inspiring and very empowering to women 💖👑 You should be so proud of what you have accomplished.
P.S your skin is looking great, I'm so happy for you!
Thanks so much for watching Zoe!! Appreciate that xx
Zoe Gornall I'm over in Edinburgh, but having chronic insomnia I watch it in the middle of the night. Scottish #baerittofam ftw!
Zoe Gornall this is such an amazing comment!
Samee, I’m usually a day behind 😩 watching from Germany
I love the lighting for your swatches!!!!
"LA girls doing it and it's $8" 🤣😂🤣😂🤣
bbydollt it's so true! High-end brands need to step it up, for their prices lmao
MissPronounced I know right!!! That's why I laughed so hard
Yeah, I still get a little ranty in my head when I use my Nars Sheer Glow. Over $50 after taxes and no pump.
Looove that Smashbox contour palette. I have totally used up the highlighter setting my undereye and its the best product Ive ever used for that. I wear that bronzer everyday and gonna run out soon. I love the contour too but don't really contour that often.
I think the dark patches is the foundation sticking to your dry skin areas. I have super dry skin and that's what happens to me with many foundations. I have to exfoliate really well then moisturizer, then hydrating primer to help. Dry skin sucks
You’re skin looks so good! Beautiful! Love watching your videos
I have dry skin and this foundation was patchy and was clinging on the dry patches horribly. Thru the day it only got worst.. did oxidized on me too
I am in love with your eye and lip makeup! So pretty!
Hi, cosmetic chemist here. I left a comment on one of your other recent foundation videos trying to dispel the sunscreen=flashback myth.

Thanks for the info. I had skin cancer at age 22. I need to wear spf.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I love mixing this foundation with the nars all radiant foundation and i love the finish!!! One pump of each foundation ❤️ i use smashbox primer oil and benefit porefessional in pearl!
Please review the flower beauty foundation!
Picked up the W&W cushion foundation you reviewed. Great daytime foundation and the shade I got matched. Thank you. Please do a video on your eye look. It's gorgeous! 😍💕
I have dry skin and have been using it for about 2 weeks and have not experienced any weird patchiness like you did. I do prep my skin very well because it is matte. On the days i have used my Elf spf of 50 I noticed that it oxidized like crazy but not with other primers. It was weird.

KathleenLights mentioned you in her must watch youtubers !!!
Just so you know, you are the BEST foundation reviewer! I have oily skin and still watch yours because they are so thorough and informative! Greatly appreciated! ❤
HOW IS IT DAY 6 ALREADY?!?!?!?
Hourglass stick foundation worked wonders on my dry skin.
Also liked the maybelline new foundation.
It's too bad about the foundation, but OMFG I'm gonna need that Milani palette!! 😍
MissPronounced I genuinely thought it was a Tarte palette or something when she held it up... It looks so high-quality!😍
I use Dr. Bronners to clean my brushes and sponges too! It cuts through the caked foundation and concealer like magic. I have peppermint but I think I'll try tea tree next if they have it.
Since when are so many of the lightest shades too light for you?!
Kristin Rosberg i know so confusing lol
she appears lighter on camera. I thought I was her shade but she said the Maybelline instant age rewind was her perfect match and I can use it as a subtle bronze. she has a whole video of foundations that are too light for her (which I reference weekly lol).
I think it's also because so many of the new foundation launches have been significantly paler/shade range has been way better than usual
She did say one or two days ago that she’s a little darker than she was.
I had got confused too when she reviewed the Dior Forever Undercover on day one because I have it and it’s way too dark, yet looked fine on her.
I think because the Accutane causes significant redness, her face seems darker. Also, everyone’s (for the most part due to elements, ie: sun exposure) face is usually darker than the rest of their body. I match my foundation (and client’s) to the neck.
Your lipstick looks so good, and your skin is sooo beautiful!!!
Didn't get a notification, this didn't show up in my subscription box, I couldn't even find it on your channel at first! Needless to say, I will search high and low for a new Taylor video! Darn RUclips! 😂😂😂 But thank God I finally got here!🌯❤🌯❤
44GlenCoCo This has been happening to me a lot this week, not just with Taylor’s videos. I’ll see a link on Twitter to a video and be able to watch it, but that video won’t be in my subscription box for 20+ minutes after it is published.
Lauren Mullins Its driving me crazy! RUclips needs to get their crap together 😂
Same here!!
Hopey B At least I'm not the only one!
This happened to me too! I kept refreshing but the video didn't pop up until 25 minutes later. Super disappointed in RUclips right now!
I have this foundation in natural. It does not oxidize on me or get patchy. I actually love it! I have normal to dry skin and, since it's a matte, I do spray some Smashbox primer water over top. Also, I use primer oil and the Laura Geller champagne spackle under it.
Is there a white mixer with this matte formula?? The white I have from LAGirl is so luminous and a matte option would be great
Damn that is patchy AF
Not that I know of but that would've been cool!
sarahwithstars that's the small white mixer like the concealer??? Yes I have that... It says highlighter on it... Saw it when I got home 😐 way 2 luminous!
I've never seen a foundation oxidize in patches, it's so strange.
sarahwithstars NYX does have a matte white mixer. Idk if that helps you. 🙂
Reena Love - no, it's the normal foundation of the whole line just in white. Taylor held it up. The highlighter is a separate thing (which is a really pretty highlight actually).
The NYX one is definitely matte, and it's pretty good.
That eye look is beautiful!!!!! Wow.
i have the two shades you used and was also thoroughly confused when i first tried them 😂 still need to return ‘natural’, it’s just way too dark for me since it does oxidize. the lightest shade i think i’m going to keep?? idk haha it’s hard for me to tell whether or not i like it. i have oily/combo skin and the oil control on this isn’t the best, and i don’t like that it transfers. have you heard about the catrice waterproof drops? i wonder if it can help any foundations become water-resistant and/or transfer-resistant. i would love to get a review from you! ❤️
I have combination/dry skin and I mixed this foundation with loreal trumatch and it's beautifully smooth
I ordered one of each mug. So now 2 t-shirts and 2 mugs. Maybe I should stop. Lol
Yes. I do look older with this foundation. It didn’t go well with my combo skin. I am thinking of mixing it with some face oil next time I try it.
Yay!!!! Baerrito fam where u at?? 🌯 🖤
Bree Edinburgh, Scotland!
Taylor, your hair looks so healthy and sleek!
Thanks Taylor...appreciate everything!! 💕🌹💕🌹
I've been enjoying your channel for quite some time now. One of the reasons being, you seem knowledgeable and honest, your personality is not over the top or phony! Please don't change these positive features as your channel grows!
Omg I just bought this foundation today at Ulta and just got done applying it before this video lol what a coincidence lol
Chelsea Danielle did you like it?
Chelsea Danielle what did you think?
I like it so far. The shade works well for me because I’m so fair. I have to see how it wears cuz I just put it on before Taylor posted this.
Okay so I just looked again and some areas don’t look that great like on my cheeks and nose.
Chelsea Danielle did it oxidize as bad on you as it did on Taylor? That line on her neck was bad!
Love the eye make up. Can you do a makeup tutorial on that look please? Love you and 15 days of foundation series!!
I can’t believe how dark it got thru out the day! Holy shitzies! 😱
Your skin is looking so good, I’m so happy for you
I’m selfishly wishing you still had oily skin, as I totally rely on your reviews to buy foundations! 😅😅 But then I’m so happy for you that your skin looks bomb! 😍
Same lol
Yes this foundation was very patchy on me too and made my skin look so dry and I have oily skin!
Notification squad! 🎉😍❤️
I haven’t had any patchy or oxidation problems, I use the lightest shade on its own with the NYX Angel Veil primer
What the hell is happening with this foundation? It oxidizes in patches... WEIRD.
Edit: Just watched Amy Macedo's video on this and it was hella patchy on her too.
Please do a tutorial of your eye makeup, it’s absolutely stunning!
Jesus how do you guys get here so fast 😂
i recently tried this one and alone i didn’t care for it, i totally know what you mean about the patchy-ness, same thing happened to me. however i’ve been mixing it with the maybelline super stay foundation and the two mixed together is so good, i love it.
when you went for a darker shade than Ivory I was like girl nooooo
I like both the la girl foundations. I've had no problem with patchiness. I have dry skin and both work on my skin. The matte version can get a little dry through the day but not more than any foundation really. It reminds me a little of the new maybelline super-stay. I always use a sponge and make sure I'm well moisturized as always. Idk it just goes to show how products work differently for people. I think it's definitely worth a try!
How u clearing those acne marks?
She has a video on skin care she's doing while on Accutane that addresses how she's treating the scarring.
Nicole Ritz thank you. I have seen that video and I did notice that she mentioned rosehip oil for her acne scarring. Just wanted to know if it's the rosehip oil or has she tried anything else that is helping her with those acne marks?
Riya B because Accutane is a large dose of vitamin A, like Retin A, except oral, it causes quicker cell turnover, thus helping to fade hyper pigmentation more quickly. If you’re not on Accutane, there are many, many products on the market that help to fade post acne “marks” quicker. I say marks, because they are not scars, as scars don’t really go away. Retinol, acids (BHA, AHA, lactic acid, etc.) vitamin C serums, and moisturizers with specific ingredients for fading hyper pigmentation can be found at your local drugstore. Just make sure you always patch test (use a little on your jaw, about the size of a dime and wait 24 hours to see if you have a reaction before using it all over your face).
Headhotdog thank you so much for taking the time to reply :-) appreciated.
So many people noticed my comment and tried helping in their own way but the one for whom this question was never bothered to reply. Thanks thatayalla :-)
Wow your skin looks beautiful! With and without your foundation, it looks like your treatment is working out great for you. Keep up the great work!
Kathleen lights just gave u a huge shootout!! UGH DYING!!😭😭😘😘😘❤️❤️
I'm dying for your lashes, gorgeous!!! honestly this didn't look bad on you
If this happens, Why don't you just take it off completely and just put on the lighter shade... I think like this a foundation doesn't have the best chance.
I used the light shade alone the next day....same thing.
thataylaa okay, damn I had hopes on this one :/ ❤
How would mixing shades of the same formula foundation affect it?
Thank you so much for making me appreciate my ghostly pale skin and dark hair plus fricking acne
The gold shadow 😍 I’ve been hiding from my son and boyfriend every night so I don’t miss an episode
Can I just say how much I love your uploads! You're just a total straight up, no need for stupid editing effects and informative reviewer and I really appreciate it ❤
Clicked that notification so fast! :D
I love this foundation. I apply the NYX primer oil and let that sink in, then apply the foundation. It looks so good.
When you already know which swatch is the Dermacol 208💁🏻
THANK YOU SO SO MUCH FOR BRINGING BACK THE 15 DAYS OF FOUNDATION MERCH!!!
That patchiness definitely came through on camera! So weird.
Re: the L.A. Girl sponges... you can also buy them in a 2pk for $10 on the HB Beauty Bar site. I've ordered from them 3x and they're great! They individually bubble wrap every polish and pack well. I highly recommend the site AND those sponges.
$8 is suchhhh a good price, wish all foundations were like this!
