    Hi Mel thanks for another honest review! I just ordered it thru your link.
    So tired of a certain youtuber who will remain nameless; who only does HIGH END MAKEUP which I love and purchase all the time. But they 95% of the time LOVE EVERYTHING and after spending a lot of money on all the stuff she reviews to be "The Best" it is just to find out it is not that great at all!
    You on the other hand are totally talented, knowledgeable and give totally honest reviews. You do what you do because you love it and it shows 100%. Thank you.

    I had the same experience with that foundation. It didn't blow me away, and after 6-8 hours, (and I don't set with much powder) it broke away and became very patchy and lifted from my skin. I got a few awful comments attacking me acting like I was hating on Auntie Pat🤦‍♀️🤪 Thank you for ALWAYS being honest, no matter what. Ooooh and I'm with you, I love the ABH foundation wayyy more than this one.. 🙌❤

Obviously most want the honesty, but those that don't it's bizarre.

    It’s reviews like this that make us trust you! The honesty is very much appreciated, and this is why your recommendations never fail me!
    I’ve yet to purchase something you’ve recommended and been anything less than happy.
    ...
    Gotta admit, I’m confused why any brand would think a synthetic brush would justify that kinda price. Handmade natural hair brushes, I totally get...and I’ll pay that high price all day, as I’m paying for the quality & craftsmanship. Both TomFord & MAC have switched to synthetics, yet kept those prices exactly the same, that just irks me to no end .

(2 weeks and still waiting) My skin is dry and sensitive and I’m devastated that this didn’t work out for you because I have a feeling if it making you dry, it’s going to do no favours for my skin. On a brighter note, I think you’re a doll and you always look beautiful!! Love from Canada!!

      I would rather sink my $$into skin CARE products. That’s a real investment in your skin. If your skin isn’t looking good it won’t matter how much you pay for your foundations and powders.

    I really loved the foundation, it has a beautiful finish, and the powder made my skin look absolutely perfect. I apply the foundation with my fingers rather than brush or sponge though, and I haven't used a primer. Don't know if that's makes a difference. I've been really surprised by the reviews.

    @jeannestarks832 5 лет назад

    Thanks for the your honest review. Mel. I just got mine, yesterday, and I ordered it on the morning of the 26th when it dropped, so I know EXACTLY what you've been through, waiting, and waiting... I am about to go apply it for the first time, and I REALLY fear that my shade choice may be too light, now! I got shade 9(meant to get 10), and I'm a bit darker than you are. None of our Sephora's have been carrying ANY of the collection, so I was forced to go by the models and undertones on the PML website. I bought the ENTIRE System, including the brushes as well. Only because I'm a fan of Pat McGrath's line, so the brushes are for purely for sentimental reasons. I really hope this goes well, FOR ME, because while you and I do have some similarities in skin type and climate(I'm over in Memphis); I'm older than you, and my application methods are different...I absolutely DO NOT need to be aged...! So, thanks for the heads up on that! Great review, Mel! ❤️

    @mburrito57939 5 лет назад

    Mel, I think you're going to need to do a foundation showdown after all these reviews! Thank you for sticking to your guns on this one. I find reviews in general a lot more valuable when I also know what does NOT work for a person, so thank you. I can't decide between the new CT foundation coming out, or the ABH. I tried the UD Stay Naked (got many samples) all week and it just doesn't work on my combo dehydrated skin, no matter what primer/moisturiser/powder I combine it with. Lasts all day and feels so incredibly lightweight but it applies patchy and almost immediately starts to crack along my jawline - where I'm not even dry. Couldn't find an acceptable match either. Super weird. But the Dior Forever Glow works amazingly for me, so I guess we win some and lose some. I am super excited to try the By Terry primer! Can't use her hydra powder under my eyes but it does absolute wonders for my face. Hope your face is coping with all the new stuff! Much love from Ireland (always humid here, so keep the reviews flowing) xx

    Thanks for the honest review, Mel. I’m surprised by all the positive reviews on Sephora’s website. I question those that got it from influenster and posted a review because a lot of the reviews on RUclips seem to be like yours. There are some good ones, but mostly bad. I was excited about this launch. Wish it turned out better. I also emailed them about my order and they said they were sending it out and upgrading me to 2 day shipping for the inconvenience. They didn’t upgrade it. Which is fine, but they shouldn’t have told me they did.

That little setting brush is my bestie, I can use it for sooooo much more than setting. Do you follow Katie Jane Hughes? She uses small brushes for everything. Like she blends her foundation in with fluffy eyeshadow brushes and I freaking love it!!!! Thanks for saving me money on this one! 😘

    I'm awaiting my second shipment today since I think I got the wrong color. But, I LOVED how it wore. I did not use the powder tho or their primer. I'm super dry as it is already and used my usual prep n prime that works for me. At around 4-5 hours in I felt it looked better than when I barely put it on. Plus, it didn't transfer. I'd recommend prepping with your usual items, not the system, and give it a go.

    Hey Mel, I’m in total agreement with your review. I FINALLY received my package yesterday. And I was so excited to get it. I had seen abundant reviews and the products looks so beautiful on so many. Alicia’s reviews, it looks stunning with or without powder! However, first I was aware of the alcohol content in the foundation from Michele. So, already I was mildly concerned as a mature skin type on the drier side. But, still I remained hopeful. I tried my primer out last night. It feels good on immediate use. But, like you say with the bottle, it is this plastic bottle with a label that is coming off.🤷🏼‍♀️ I’m confused when you place that next to the beautiful foundation bottle. Anyhow, it doesn’t blur fine lines or reduce pores. It didn’t even hydrate my mature skin. Today, I will try the foundation again but I will use my usual primers. The foundation was pretty. And it is very light, which typically I do like. But, I think I honestly like the Dior Backstage. I’ve been using two small sample bottles I got from Sephora. And I have held off purchasing because I have been waiting for the McGrath. I will give this one a little more weartime. But, I will likely get the Dior. As for the powder. I haven’t even tried it. But, when you mentioned crapy texture around your mouth. Well, I thought 🤔💭 I definitely don’t want to go there! Last thing I want to emphasize is fine lines around either my eyes or lip line! I thank you for your honest review! I’m sure loads of people will give slack. But, sometimes not everything is a win. I too LOVE Pat McGrath. I think many of her products have been Game changing. But, this may be a miss for some... 🙄 Have a great weekend! 💗💐💋🦋

    Sad this wasn’t a hit for you. So far I like. Testing it today next to my la mer to see how it holds up as I was hoping they would be similar. The powder def was a pass for me. Good review ❤️❤️❤️

      Steff Blade they pretty much held up the same. Pat was a bit more oily looking by the end of the day and felt slightly heavier on the skin. Also pat sunk into my fine lines more. But overall, to me they were very similar. Will have to test again in the winter months.

    While I did not like how the foundation looked on you the first time, I think it looks gorgeous with the By Terry primer and the other powders you wore. The color is much better too, as you pointed out. Glad I'm skipping this launch alltogether.
    You said you'd recommend the GA luminous silk or the Anastasia. Have you stopped liking the new UD stay naked or is it alltogether very different to those other two?

  • @louselman
    @louselman 5 лет назад

    I purchased the foundation, powder and primer and my dry skin didn't respond well at all. The powder made it so dry that my face became a road map within an hour of application and stayed dry until I removed the make up. I am disappointed, but I believe that those with oily skin will love it. Your reviews are always on point and I should have waited to purchase. Have an amazing weekend. Hugs always. XOXO

    I agree with everything you said! I’m returning the Pat McGrath foundation to Sephora, I am way more impressed with the Urban Decay Stay Naked foundation for a light to medium coverage foundation, and I’m even fonder of the price point.

    What you said about the workout is truth. As a fitness instructor who teaches high intensity workouts in a humid room, this foundation holds up well. However, it would not be my first choice if I'm just going about a normal day with not much activity. I ordered both colors and am waiting for LM10 so thank you for the swatches!
