    My number 1 requirement in a foundation is that it makes me look like I have nice skin as opposed to nice makeup. This looks like something that would be worth trying.

      Geek Out of Water So glad you are enjoying the foundation. I checked out the color chart, and I didn't see anything with a light/warm undertones. The next shade after yours was light/with warm/peachy undertones. So, the color you have may be the one that would wotk. The finish on your face is outstanding. Then again, you are 43, and I'm the old lady of the group at 59! 😉 Hope you are having an incredible trip in Ireland. Enjoy the rest of your vacation!

    @nadeenkatz376 6 лет назад

    I’m so glad this was right after the Sunday Riley. You needed a pick-me-up after that debacle! I wonder if you set the Ilia with a powder that has a bit of luminescence like Hourglass Veil, or Sisley-Paris, if that would still retain the beautiful finish all day...

    • @goow
      @goow  6 лет назад

      Oooooooh just the thought of that sounds wonderful! I might just pick up that Hourglass Veil to try it with this foundation! And - I filmed this the same day as the Sunday Riley! So I'm pretty sure it wasn't my skin causing the problem :) I love this foundation. It's in my top 3 for sure - and probably my #1 favorite finish of the moment.

  • @yvonnecusmano7971

    • @goow
      @goow  6 лет назад +1

      Hi Yvonne! I've been wearing this one nonstop since I filmed this! Even brought it to Ireland with me :) I've been setting my whole face lightly and that definitely seems best on me - but after a couple hours the luminance is back and the foundation still stays in place, so I'm really loving it! It also plays nicely with dewy setting sprays. I've been using the Milani Make It Dewy with it.

    • @goow
      @goow  6 лет назад

      Yep I'm going to add this in a Foundation Follow-Up update when I get back from Ireland but the Ilia wears much better when I set my entire face. Then I either use a dewy setting spray if I want the luminance back right away, or give it and hour or so and it all sort of melds together and looks luminous again. I didn't have good luck with the Kokie foundation.

    @chlojoe100 6 лет назад

    Now we're talking, Shelly. This foundation looks really good. It doesn't look dry and cakey and polka dottie. Skin looks young. Makes me think of the It Cosmetics CC Cream? Also I have to agree with you on the Tarteist Palette. I never reach for that one because the colors just don't translate on the eyes as they are in the pan. Also they don't last on me. What's crazy is one of my favorite palettes is from Shop Hush and is the After Hours -Mauve 9 pan. These shadows last longer on me than any high end palette for $10-$12. it's crazy. If you don't have that one, you may want to try it. The pan colors and on the lid colors are spot on.

    • @goow
      @goow  6 лет назад +1

      Hi Alli! I think it could work really - because the luminance really isn't the same "dewy" finish as most. It's almost like it's light reflecting pigments as opposed to a wet finish. It completely sets and still looks luminous. If you can get a sample from Sephora I'd totally say, try it.

    This is my favorite foundation. I buff it out with a Kabuki buffing brush after it sets a bit and that decreases transfer and makes it last even longer. Sometimes I use my fingers to apply it but a damp sponge is so fast and the finish is beautiful that way. If I feel that I want to buff it, I use a soft dense Kabuki brush just to polish my face. The finish is aways beautiful and it plays well with blush and bronzer. It does not settle into my fine lines and wrinkles. Thanks for the great review!

Neither one is a match for me, but they're OK if I mix the two. I've never been able to match any Too Faced foundations, but I like the formula of the Peach Perfect enough that I bought them both.

    Great video, Hun! After the experience I just had - reviewed Jouer’s Essential High Coverage - I am desperate to find some beautiful foundations to test that perform nicely on dry skin. Desperate! I’ll have to pick this one up and give it a try! Doesn’t it just drive you nuts when foundation wears off in areas, especially without powdering? I’ve noticed this, primarily, on our radiant foundations. Why can’t they develop a radiant/hydrating foundation that stays as well as the matte ones do? That Jouer foundation...I swear, if I could wear it, I would; as it lasted until I removed it! Lucky oily skin peeps! LOL! Going to watch your Sunday Riley now. I adore her skin care products & had the foundation on my list to review, just haven’t gotten to it yet...hmmm. Wishing you a beautiful week, sweetie! *hugs* Shelbie =) 💚💋

      It seems like there are far more foundations for combo to oily than for normal to dry! I bet the oily people say the same thing though :-D

    You have me super curious about this one! I have dry mature skin and I feel the same way about foundation by the end of the night (Get it off!!!). It's a bummer that it needs to be set though so hopefully, you can give us an update if you are able to make it work with a different primer. As for the Tarte palette, I had the same exact experience. I ended up returning it. I felt like the shades were definitely different on my eyes than what I saw in the palette. I also felt like they easily muddied up. I haven't really found a Tarte palette that I really like though so maybe their formula just isn't for me.

    • @goow
      @goow  6 лет назад

      This foundation has been in regular rotation since I filmed this! I'm loving it! Yeah I think I need to finally accept that Tarte palettes just don't work for me. This is the third that I've been completely underwhelmed with.

  • @tamrau.1686
    @tamrau.1686 6 лет назад +5

    I personally don't think the grading should have shade range added to it. It's always good to mention if a company is failing as far as shade range because that is important but the shade has zero to do with the product itself. I'm glad you went ahead and gave this an A- but feel it deserves a straight A. I do understand why you add shade range in though. Being a reviewer you kinda "have" to.
    Also, would you maybe consider trying out Benefits Hello Happy soft blur foundation? I personally love cutesie things and well...that packaging lol !!!

    • @goow
      @goow  6 лет назад +1

      Packaging always gets me!! I'll add that to my list! Thanks, Tamra! And yeah, reviewing things it's a fine line between critiquing based on my own personal usage (like, I always review with primer because I never wear foundation without primer) and being general enough that my reviews are applicable to other people beyond me. That's why I include shade range, because while some people watch my reviews specifically because we're close in shades, a majority of viewers are in the light and medium range. So a foundation that doesn't have a close enough match would be irrelevant even if I graded it an A for fair skin. It's never more than a quarter letter grade value, so at the end of the day the main components of the grade are how it looks and wears on dry and mature skin. (Another quarter-grade type thing is how it applies - it would get dinged for being finicky, but not so much that it seriously impacts the grade as long as it looks and wears well - like the Kevyn Aucoin from the other night).

    • @tamrau.1686
      @tamrau.1686 6 лет назад

      You do a great job with your reviews! This was just a general statement not meant as a critique or anything. Also, after watching a few of the smaller RUclipsrs do a review on that new benefit foundation, I think you will hate it lol. So maybe not a good one for you to review :P idk

    i'd say luminous, shelly. it is a very natural luminous and looks really good on you. have you tried any of the new brow "tattoo" fill in products? seems interesting as my brows are soooooooooooooooooooooo skimpy (it's an age thing, not a crazy tweezer thing) so i am wanting to try some of the products. hope all is wonderful for you. hugs! ~k

    • @goow
      @goow  6 лет назад

      I've only tried one of the drugstore brow "tattoo" lines and it was OK if I used my own brow brush and not the clumsy wand that it came with. But I find that I don't really need my brows to last more than a day because I wash my face with the Clarisonic every night. The tattoo stuff survives overnight if you don't wash your brows at all but that's not typically how I do things. So it hasn't really been a product I reach for. The KVD pomade stays in place just about as well and is easier to wash off.

    • @sweetox_9690
      @sweetox_9690 6 лет назад

      @goow  6 лет назад

      Hi Lori! It holds up phenomenally well when fully set and really the luminosity does come back. I haven't been able to stop wearing this one since I filmed it! I will have it in a foundation follow-up discussing that point once I get back from Ireland. I'm in love with this one!

    I'm thinking this would be a good one to pair with the Milani Glow setting powder to keep that hyrated/luminous finish?? And yeah, it's a really lovely finish! (one of my faves you've done). The shade in the swatch looked kinda too orange/warm for a specified neutral-cool one, but on your face & in natural light didn't look overly warm at all. I'm so bummed this is a $79 (+ postage costs) foundation here, so outside my self-imposed budget limit. And that eye look - I'd never have known you used the mushroomy-mauvy-taupe row! - it turned out pretty, but really kinda bronzy (which did look nice on you but wouldn't on me, as I'm a tad cooler than you).

    • @goow
      @goow  6 лет назад +1

      Yeah the eye look was fine but it wasn't at all what I had in my mind's eye! :-D Good call on trying the Milani Glow powder with this one - I will do that immediately when I get home. (I brought this foundation with me to Ireland but didn't bring the Milani powder). womp womp

    @AynneMorison 6 лет назад

    I'm wondering if there is something about combining a primer and a serum formula. One would think that a serum would do better in closer contact or less diluted contact with the skin, maybe. Just a curiosity, but one I'm not likely to scratch soon at the price point ;)

    Have you ever used Wen cleansing conditioner? I have always wanted to try it and was watching QVC and I am so tempted. I am a sucker for informercials, so I try to not impulse buy but please let me know....

    • @sharonbrady4596
      @sharonbrady4596 6 лет назад

      lisaturtle13 I remember some years ago there was a lawsuit against WEN because people’s hair was falling out. I don’t know the outcome or anything else about it. I also don’t know if they’ve changed the formula since then. I would do some research into it before you buy it. Just thought you might like to know.

    • @goow
      @goow  6 лет назад

      Yeah... I was one of the (thousands of) people that got some money in that lawsuit. I used Wen for 6 weeks and lost almost a third of the volume of my hair. I would stay as far away from Wen as possible. They settled the class-action suit with a no-fault disclaimer, but I had statements from my doctor and hair stylist and both advised me to never touch it again. There was never a consensus on what ingredient or reaction was causing people to lose hair, but it definitely happened. I'm still struggling with regrowth in a couple spots.

    • @lisaturtle13
      @lisaturtle13 6 лет назад

      Geek Out of Water What?!?!? Oh no, that is awful :( I am so, so sorry to hear that. Thank you for letting me (us) know. I already struggle with hair loss and have actually been quite depressed about it, so that would be truly horrible for me. I can’t believe it... that is truly a horribly awful story. I am so glad I asked. I was ready to buy the gallon sized last night. The models look so good and I have hair envy of how luscious and bouncy their hair looks. Thank you again and I am so sorry for what happened to you!

I have a ton of high end foundations and this is the one that I love...go figure...and hey soooooooo, I was just wondering if you were going to talk about KVD and the immunization thing. Just wondering if that will alter your feelings in any way moving forward/using her products or should it, IDK what are your thoughts, I know you are a HUGE KVD lover as I am as well. and for the record, Im not sure I give a crap what she does with her kid either way, I know thats possibly a cold-ish thing to say but its truth anyhow. Id buy her products if they were made with dog shit just my humble opinion

    • @goow
      @goow  6 лет назад +1

      I get totally stuck on foundations too - I'm actual stuck on this one right now, ever since I filmed this! :-D As for KVD... I think of things like this the same way I think about a lot of professionals/celebrities/politicians/public figures... I buy her products because I like her products, and to that extent, her job is to make products and make them well. If she's doing her job in a respectable way, it doesn't much matter to me what she does in her personal life. I certainly have opinions on what she's doing (I'm am 100% on the pro-vaccination side of the fence), but as long as she's doing her job and doing it well, I will continue buying her makeup. I can say that it is irritating to see all the vaccination talk on every one of her social media posts - which to me is getting in the way of her doing her job - and if that continues, it might annoy me enough to step away from her products. I read her social media because of her makeup. But as of now her personal life is her personal life, and if people are so up in arms about it then they should work to put systems in place that would require her to vaccinate her kid. Social media comments won't change a thing. I agree with the sentiment most of these commenters have - that vaccination is a matter of the health of the larger population and not just one child - but if that's the cause you're taking up, changing KVD's mind isn't the objective. Systemic change is required. That's my take on it, for what it's worth.

      I realize makeup isn't surgery but along the same lines I feel the same way. Shes the best. But man, she could have just shut up about it and did her thing and no one would have ever known what her plans were for her family. Why do people feel like they have to post every thought that comes into their head is beyond me. I left FB because i got so annoyed with that.
