Polyethylene is generally considered safe and non toxic in beauty products. While microbeads are also a type of polyethylene and have been proven toxic to the environment, polyethylene is a broad, broad category and the liquid types found in cosmetics have not been shown to have detrimental effects. Aluminum hydroxide is also commonly used in natural “clean” beauty products (Rituel de Fille, for another example). While it does contain the word aluminum, it is not the same as the aluminum chlorohydrate in deodorants that we should all avoid. It is actually a pigment, ranked with a 1at EWG (vs 3 for the deodorant version). These ingredients are of no concern in these products from a safety standpoint.
You look so beautiful, the way you styled your hair and makeup today are very flattering! Thank you for such a helpful video, I am loving your reviews!
Fantastic review! I also wanted to point out to any clean beauty devotees that the drops contain aluminum hydroxide and the stick version contains polyethylene. Personally, I have spent years avoiding aluminum in deodorant so not starting now and polyethylene is plastic, something conventional makeup uses but I have never seen in clean beauty makeup. So confused why these two ingredients get their seal of approval. Only powder is clear of both! Bummed I didn't read the ingredients on the blush, contour and highlight. Hoping WA revamps this at some point.
Wow this is so informative, thank you! The WA Complexion Drops did not work for me either as I have normal/oily skin. I passed on the ILIA serum bc of this as well. The WA Stik is actually great for whatever reason but the call out above on ingredients is interesting. Thank you for the review!
Hi Lexi! Thank you for the honest demo and review - and those close-ups! I was so tempted to buy the skin tint when it launched but I read the ingredient list (I always do) and expected that the tint would be far too oily for me. If you cannot return the skin tint, you could try mixing it with your Sisley oil-free foundation (in your hands). Thank you as well for your review of the WA brush and comparing it with other brushes. I will be passing on both new products.
Hi Lexi, your review is top notch informative as always. I have to agree that being able to feel something when you touch your face is not ideal and perhaps why it doesn't wear as well as it should. Thank you for all the details and for being so very thorough. 👏👏
Thank you so much for the comprehensive review and demos Lexi!! I was so curious about this but won’t be picking it up. I love my Sisley cushion so much and prefer the finish of that one. Thank you for a beautiful video!!
I love your very honest review, thanks so much dear Lexi!!!🤩🤩🤩🤩It's an expensive brand, i have a few products from them, and it always helps so much, to know what is worth the money and what is not!!!! Thanks again, and have a wonderful day!!!!😘😘😘😘
Thank you so much Annemarie! They definitely have some great products and others that are just not my preference. I hope you enjoy what you have purchased so far.
I bought this as soon as it launched and I love it. A couple of observations: you seem to be using much more than I do. I put one drop on my forehead, chin, and one on each cheek. I stippled it on to begin with. Then I go back and dot the foundation on areas where I’m red (I have rosacea). Then I powder very lightly only in my t-zone. I have combo skin, brow. I really love these drops!
I am glad you love them! I did a zoom event with Gucci Westman and this was her recommended technique. I used between 3 & 4 drops depending on the demo in the video. That sounds like it is about the same amount of product you are using but of course application can differ with so many factors.
Hey lexi … I love mine but my skin is the driest of skins , so I think even someone with normal skin it could be too much … I’m like the oilier the better lol and I love my skin to feel oily all day haha .. great review have a good day 🤗🤗
Lexi, I really appreciate your video. I’ve been wavering on this one because with my really combination skin, I don’t think it would be great as a primer and I’m not much of a sheer tinted moisturizer wearer. My color hasn’t released yet (Atelier I) so it has been easy to decide so far. But your’s is not the only review that raises questions for me about how it would work on the oily parts of my face.
Glad it was helpful! I wouldn't really recommend it for combo skin and I am surprised that it is intended for combination skin. It just seems too oily to me no matter how little you use or how much you shake it.
Thanks for pointing out the oils in the WA drops. I do think the bottle is sweet! My rosacea flares up with oils. I’ve been using Sisley Phyto-Hydra Teint in 0 Fair, and I adore it. It’s my new daily go-to. It does take so little, and I apply with fingertips. My complexion feels so velvety soft to the touch after application. LOVE it.
Great review! I wasn't sure about these drops because I really don't tend to use a lot of complexion products, but in the end, I couldn't resist buying these drops because I love WA and I was curious to try them out for myself. I haven't received them yet and I must admit I'm still a bit worried because I've mainly seen not-so-good reviews about it, but I'm really hoping they'll work out for me. I loved your makeup look, your lipstick is stunning. Thank you so much for sharing, hope you're well!
Please let me know what you think after you try them Natalia. Michelle from @beautyhasbeen says she loves them if you want to see a more positive review. I really hope they work for you!
@@LexiJong Thank you so much! I love her channel and I'm glad to have seen a positive review. I already got them and to be honest, I felt like they actually accentuated my dry patches, but my mother loved them so yeah I think I'm going to keep testing them and if not I'll give them to my mom. Hope you're well!
I dint k ow why i feel this is too highly priced ??? I get it, I guess luxury pricing. I can’t get this now, it’s not a smart shop for me. And I have to really love it to get it a. Thank you for all the comparisons.
It is highly priced. Considering how you only need 3-4 drops, it will take a long time to go through the whole bottle but I don't think it is worth it for me regardless of that. I think you can find something you will love more than this personally.
Thanks for the thorough demonstration. I did watch another video about this product and they stated that squalene was the first ingredient. My skin loves squalene but I wouldn’t want it in a complexion product because it’s basically an oil. Anyway this is not for me but I appreciate your video as always!
Oh my goodness, fantastic review. I’m wanting to compare this product with the Kosas Foundation oil, have you tried that? I’m holding off on the WA until I finish my Kosas bottle. I actually have combo oily skin, but in the winter where I live the outdoor temperature reaches -20F and even my combo skin needs a bit more oil, especially on my cheeks to prevent frostbite. I wonder if this product would be worth another try for you in a drier season as opposed to summer. I must also add how beautiful your skin looks in the makeup here. I really feel like you are nailing the more sheer skin that is the hallmark of luxury makeup now, it’s a polished spa-look to the skin. I love the Golden Bouquet on you, and the lip reminds me of the Victoria Beckham email we got this week with the new lip tint. Anyway, my point is, I can see the makeup you have on, but it’s the second thing I notice after your polished, radiant skin. I’m striving for this look too.
I will try it out again during the winter. I don't have the Kosas but they sound very much alike. I'm curious if this would work well on those bitterly cold, dry days.
Your whole look today is gorgeous! The foundation shade and the lip color are really flattering. And thanks so much for the great close-ups. I am so sorry to hear the drops didn‘t work for you, because I thought it looked beautiful on camera. I could feel my skin drinking in the moisture as you applied it. 😂 I think my winter skin will love these drops; I love skin oils, and these oils all sound really nice. Since you mentioned Danessa Myricks foundation with more coverage, I might try that, too.
Thanks for another detailed review Lexi. It's a "no" from me on this one. I agree with Pam. Wow, that's a big price difference between those two brushes. Your thumb nail is terrific.
Lexi, thank you for reviewing this product. I need a little more coverage and this would be too oily for my skin. Thank you for showing other products that are similar or more coverage. Also thank you for going over the two brushes. I’m definitely going to look into the more affordable one that does the same job. Always appreciate your honest reviews!! 😊🌺
Wayyy too much oil for my combo/oily skin. Definite pass for me! Especially with all the new releases coming out. Thanks for your *honest* review as always!♡ Hope you are doing well Lexi!
Thanks for your review. Like many other commentators have said, this isn’t for me. I have oily skin in the summer, more combination in the colder months. What I don’t need is more oil, unless I’m cleansing. I’ll stick with my Sisley, Surratt, Chantecaille gel, Cle de Peau and, my most recent purchase, the Suqqu liquid foundation. Suqqu, by the way, works beautifully on oily skin. I do need to powder in the tee zone, but that’s it. Thanks again.
I got this right as it came out and I now have a product I am stuck with b/c I threw the box away :( I don't like it, I feel it on my face and that is a big 'no no' for me, I was happy to wash my face at the end of the day-I thought this would be more "watery" and lighter, I know this sounds odd for in the demos you'll watch it looks runny, but it feels like an oil + a cream, hence why I feel it on my face-I used my hands and applied it and for one the smell, it stinks, second it's heavy and third, the color selection for me is not good-I need something that has a rose undertone so got shade 4 being it mentioned the peach tone but it's way too yellow based, not peach on my skin- I tried it again this morning with a small brush and the color threw me off so wiped it off-I think there was a ton more options out there than buying this- Using this over SPF made me felt like my skin could not breath-If I bought the brush that is suggested, I already have enough of her brushes that are just dollar signs sitting in my drawers reminding me of the ill decision I had buying the brushes, then so much of the product would be absorbed into the brush-Does that even make sense?
I understand what you are saying! I agree that it feels unusually heavy on the skin. Perhaps they will let you return it without the box. I was so excited for this launch but it was disappointing.
Can I please .. what do you think of the smell? I just purchased . The product feels fine but it smells . Yes we don’t want things to be over fragrance but some would be better than the smell it has
I feel this would be good for those of us in our late forties and above. It looks a bit too glowy (sweaty 😅) on a lot of younger people. I find a lot of WA products suit a more mature skin, especially the eye shadows.
Good morning Lexi. Thank you for the review. I don't think that product will work on my mature skin, I will skip! Regarding the Sisley skin tint, I think that you said that your color is the 00 but from the places that I usually buy the lighter color is 01?? Thank you. Ida
Thank you Ida! The Sisley recently added the 0 shade but before shade 1 was the lightest. Perhaps they are still rolling out the newest shade. I tried 1 and have an older video with it but it is too dark for me.
Thank you for another great review. I have really mixed feelings on this and think I may hold off until I can see it in person somewhere. The first thing I thought of that I own already was Surratt Dew Drops- would that be similar at all? I think I might prefer Chanel or Sisley to this WA if the shades are lighter.
Thank you Megan! The Surratt Dew Drops are not like this at all. That is more of a traditional foundation whereas this is much more radiant. This is more equivalent on the skin to the Jones Road WTFoundation.
@@LexiJong thank you so much! Super helpful. Maybe it would be more similar to the ilia drops or something like that. I noticed just now it has wheat germ oil in it which means I will definitely stay away and check out the Chanel and Sisley instead. Thanks again for your thoughtful reviews!
I was debating about this product but as I have normal skin too I thinK I m gonna skip it …. And I spy a Suqqu cushion foundation so… I ll wait I have too much foundation tint skin for now Merci Lexi
Thank you for this. I was interested in this until I saw Gucci demo it and I thought she looked better before... I have normal leaning a little dry and dehydrated but the facial oils and many serums plus my moisturizer and actual spf is cheaper than this and look better. I am glad I waited for review but was leaning towards a no. I am not totally sure what this is supposed to do. My skincare game is strong and I want my skincare to skincare and my make up to make up. I guess everything has been done before so the skincare makeup hybrid BS is the trendy thing.
Hi Lexi! Great review as always. IMHO one man's dewy skin is another man's oily looking-too shiny skin. I am older than you and I would say I have combo skin, but too shiny skin is just too shiny. I do like to have a variety of foundations because I travel a great deal to various climates, at various times of the year. I always use some amount of powder, particularly to set the undereye area. Too much shine in that area makes one look older. I will grab a sample from Cosbar or Credo (color N) long before I buy a bottle. I like WA, but not everything (bronzer, lip suedes). My only comment (somewhat jaded) is that they have a real marketing strategy in the uber slow roll-out of product. I know they are a small company, and formulate from scratch in Italy, and the pandemic....etc, etc, etc..... But, GW's husband was in the denim industry forever and he (and she) know that if you slowly introduce products and new colorways (ever wonder why the three eye pod colors came out at different times) you get people to buy more products as opposed to having them initially select from a larger offering. I am in the real estate development field and this is a tried and true principal. You NEVER release all of your lots/houses at one time. NEVER.
I have noticed the marketing trend and how well it works but I feel like a lot of brands do this and it is smart but frustrating! I did not know about GW's husband but I'm sure he has taught her many tips and strategies like this. You are so right Anya!
@@LexiJong Regarding GW's husband (David?), I believe he left the RTW/denim world and "runs her company." I do not know his corporate title, but, I think he manages much of everything. And, I am not detracting from GW herself. It is a joint operation.
To call this product non-comedogenic is bit of a scam, since avocado oil not to name other oils, but avocado oil in drop’s INCI list is third one and it is mildly comedogenic, wheat oil - highly comedogenic…Just know your oils🙂
Yes I think their labeling and terminology is misleading. Someone else pointed out some issues with their "clean beauty" criteria as well. It is all just advertising and at this point which is not how it should be imo.
Same with Vital skin foundation stick - my very expensive mistake - checked INCI and there was answer to recent breakouts, not typical for me in general, coconut oil - severly comedogonic, so I agree that if you have a champagne taste with a budget of beer - stick to good skin care products not make-up that promises you both😅
I know this video isnt super recent, but I watched this and bought the WA skin tint anyway. I never wear foundation, and figured this would be just a little boost for my skin. Nope, I hate it. It makes me look older than my 40 years!
You need to shake the container. If not, as oil rises to the top, you are primarilary using the product incorrectly and putting a higher ratio of oil instead of the actual product on your face.
This is just too much oil for me. I hated the Kosas foundation oil product. It reminds me of that. I hated that feeling of oil sitting there and not soaking in

You are so welcome! I agree that the Sisley cushion is incredible!
The problem with skincare actives in my makeup is it would never penetrate atop my sunscreen as the purpose of the sunscreen is to block penetration

Hi Lexi! Great review as always. IMHO one man's dewy skin is another man's oily looking-too shiny skin. I am older than you and I would say I have combo skin, but too shiny skin is just too shiny. I do like to have a variety of foundations because I travel a great deal to various climates, at various times of the year. I always use some amount of powder, particularly to set the undereye area. Too much shine in that area makes one look older. I will grab a sample from Cosbar or Credo (color N) long before I buy a bottle. I like WA, but not everything (bronzer, lip suedes). My only comment (somewhat jaded) is that they have a real marketing strategy in the uber slow roll-out of product. I know they are a small company, and formulate from scratch in Italy, and the pandemic....etc, etc, etc..... But, GW's husband was in the denim industry forever and he (and she) know that if you slowly introduce products and new colorways (ever wonder why the three eye pod colors came out at different times) you get people to buy more products as opposed to having them initially select from a larger offering. I am in the real estate development field and this is a tried and true principal. You NEVER release all of your lots/houses at one time. NEVER.
I have noticed the marketing trend and how well it works but I feel like a lot of brands do this and it is smart but frustrating! I did not know about GW's husband but I'm sure he has taught her many tips and strategies like this. You are so right Anya!
@@LexiJong Regarding GW's husband (David?), I believe he left the RTW/denim world and "runs her company." I do not know his corporate title, but, I think he manages much of everything. And, I am not detracting from GW herself. It is a joint operation.
@@anyaamasova6607 thank you for sharing!
Can you link the Koyudo brush?
Oh I am so sorry! I thought I had included them. Both Koyudo brushes mentioned are in the description box now.
To call this product non-comedogenic is bit of a scam, since avocado oil not to name other oils, but avocado oil in drop’s INCI list is third one and it is mildly comedogenic, wheat oil - highly comedogenic…Just know your oils🙂
Yes I think their labeling and terminology is misleading. Someone else pointed out some issues with their "clean beauty" criteria as well. It is all just advertising and at this point which is not how it should be imo.
Same with Vital skin foundation stick - my very expensive mistake - checked INCI and there was answer to recent breakouts, not typical for me in general, coconut oil - severly comedogonic, so I agree that if you have a champagne taste with a budget of beer - stick to good skin care products not make-up that promises you both😅
@@lauraputnina2772 i love the way you phrased that!
I know this video isnt super recent, but I watched this and bought the WA skin tint anyway. I never wear foundation, and figured this would be just a little boost for my skin. Nope, I hate it. It makes me look older than my 40 years!
I'm so sorry it didn't work for you either.
I have those Koyudo brushes on my list already! 🤣 it cracks me up that they’re FUPA. I’m a child. 🤡
PS: thank you for actually using the three drops. Everyone else keeps globing it on. 🤦🏻♀️
Lol! I can't imagine the mess that must make. The 3 is already a lot of product.
Lol. I think that is why they changed the name to the F series but everyone still calls it FuPa.
You need to shake the container. If not, as oil rises to the top, you are primarilary using the product incorrectly and putting a higher ratio of oil instead of the actual product on your face.
Yes I shook the container but thank you! I always preshake all of my foundations and liquids prior to use.
4:15 your brush is disintegrating right on your skin as you apply your makeup 🫣😬
This is just too much oil for me. I hated the Kosas foundation oil product. It reminds me of that. I hated that feeling of oil sitting there and not soaking in
Yes that is exactly how it feels! Great comparison!
I don’t like that skin tint. Too oily for me.
Thank you for sharing Evelyn!
The smell of the skin drops is disgusting 🤢
They just aren’t great overall imo
