    I love the Danessa Myricks Blurring Balm Powder! I live in a tropical country and it’s just not the most ideal place to wear foundation for extended periods of time. The Blurring Balm Powder really does stay matte and controls my oils without feeling heavy. It’s the first product I’ve hit pan on this year.

      I went to Vegas in August & only brought my Danessa Myrick’s balm powder for foundation & concealer. It was awesome! Great for traveling when you don’t want to carry liquid foundation in your luggage.

    I’m peri menopausal and my skin is currently on a roller coaster 😂 I found that I really love the Lisa Eldridge Seamless Skin Foundation for “real life”, because it’s difficult to find neutral undertone foundation. For work, I wear a Chanel foundation I’ve had for a little while - the warm undertones make me look healthy under the super bright fluorescent lighting 😂

    Lady Gaga’s foundation is incredible! I wasn’t going to get it, but kept reading reviews & went into Sephora to try it out, and was sold. It’s very beautiful.🔥

  • @fnnygrndm

    I think your undertone is neutral-warm olive! I understand wanting to use something slightly more golden to bring more "life" into the skin, as olive toned skin can look "dull" (imo not dull - I love it - but how others might perceive it) because of it's greenness/mutedness. The Haus Labs 330 has the perfect amount of olive for you though that looks very natural :)

    I picked up the hourglass based on your first review. Holy crap, it is my HG. My skin looks flaaaawless as it really does look like a filter on my skin. I’ve never had people compliment my skin but I have had 3 separate strangers come up to me and tell me my skin looked beautiful. I have oily skin and find it wears extremely well!

    Ok, I had to come back to this. I’ve been LIVING for how the Hourglass Soft Ambient since I bought it
    However, I have several friends who keep hyping the Haus Labs. I do want to go get shade matched for that one, and possibly add it to the rotation

  • @linzeeb4

    Love a round up! The NARS light reflecting is my favorite of the year by far. The shade match is perfect, the finish is so blurring but natural and light, and it lasts so long on my face.

    The Danessa Myricks Blurring Balm Powder is one of my favorite products of 2022! I usually use it as a primer, even with the light coverage I can’t get a match that would look good enough alone. That being said it is perfect for using with a light coverage foundation or powder foundation!!

  • @SI-ps9ii

    I purchased the Dynessa Myricks and the Nars this year. I LOVE the Nars. My skin looks amazing everyone I use. Soft, blurred, with a lit from within glow. Nars shades also work well for my olive with neutral to golden undertones. It works so well w my skin care and primers. Light reflecting and PM Labs are my two favorites.

    Because I know EXACTLY what you are talking about when it comes to undertones for us Medium to Medium Deep skin depths, I am looking at Haus Labs now for a better shade match for winter. My go-to Fenty Profilt'r Hydrating Foundation in 260 is just a little too warm, but 270 (which I have contemplated getting to cool off 260) looks quite pink to my eye. Something tells me that I will find my perfect winter shade with Lady Gaga's brand. I hope? Summer is easier for me to find solid matches, though.

    • @aliciaarcher
      @aliciaarcher  Год назад +1

      I think you will find a fantastic shade match with the Haus Labs. I think their undertones are a little more nuanced than Fenty’s.

      @nancytipton7602 Год назад

      @@aliciaarcher this is very good, solid info you've passed down to me, as I am so tired of never finding the correct undertone for the cooler season when I'm not getting any sort of sun exposure. And I'm sure that we have many others within our range who face the exact same issue.

    I am happy to know I’m ending 2022 with 3 foundations that matches me perfectly: Nars light reflecting, Haus Labs and Pat McGrath. I got to get it together because I waste too much time in the morning deciding which one to use for the day because all are wonderful. I don’t think I need to buy anymore foundation for awhile. NOW… you must do the same comparison vid for setting powders. I tried a few and I think I found the one: NARS light reflecting setting powder but I don’t know….

    Alicia, after watching your reviews I purchased the Lys concealer in TN3 and TG5 and you're right - they are fantastic.

    I have nars and hourglass and I loved them equally. Nars is more bright and looks great on my combo skin. Hourglass it's less bright but still amazing on pictures, I can't choose I love both. I use valencia in nars and 10.5 in hourglass and they are perfect match for me

    Agree about the LYS concealer too, it's just so good, reliable, flexible that it's hard to put down. I did get the new Kulfi concealer in a skin tone shade (the LYS one I have is a slightly brightening shade) and it's a perfect match. Slight dewy finish, just so easy to work with. The two are perfect complements in my collection. 🥰

    I bought the rose Inc foundation wanting to love it so I wouldn’t have to splurge on Chanel but it didn’t work out. Rose Inc turned kinda gray on me and I tried two shades. I caved and bought Chanel and it’s truly a HG foundation for me. That one, CT’s Beautiful Skin and YSL’s tinted moisturizer are all that’s in my rotation now. I keep trying the yummy skin foundation and it’s fine but I just don’t reach for it much.

    I'm oily and sweaty and my face eats foundation. The DM works great for those issues, but... I am curious about the hourglass. That finish... okay hear me out... terracotta, made in Italy, has a matte but somehow luminous finish. It catches light in a way that looks supple. The shadows add dimension. It's almost like the finish creates that Contour and highlight effect. I want THAT on my face. I will send you pictures of what I mean. 💞 dreamy!

    Hey Alicia we were a color match for a long time. I found that 10.5 was the better fit. I was actually surprised you were going for 11. I found that to be a deep summer shade for me which was odd because I expected it to be lighter but it was a dead match for my undertones. I wear Pat McGrath 15 for reference

    I was disappointed I couldn't find a match in the NARS foundation. DM balm I like, but I have the universal shade. Would need to try 7 or 8 to determine my shade. I'm applying the Auric foundation today. Haven't worn that in months. My skin goes from combination to dry in the winter months, so hoping the glow helps me out a little. I want to try Haus Labs soon. My perfect match foundation is from Bobby Brown's line.

    I have oily skin. The Nars foundation faded almost COMPLETELY on me by the end of the day. Thats an unacceptable defect at the price, and I was super surprised. That hasnt happened to me in years. The Lisa Eldridge foundation wears wayyy better and I dont look crazy shiny through the day with it. Im gonna have to use a primer and a lot of powder to make the Nars one last. Disappointing. I guess you dont have oily skin, or maybe you live somewhere cool/dry. I live in hot, humid weather. Just wanted to warn others with my skin type.

    Hi Alicia, and Thank you so much for this video because you just mentioned something that I I couldn't agree with you more! And that is the NARS light reflecting Foundation Girl, about two months ago it might have been 3 months ago I let the managers at my local Sephora as well as the the NARS rep who happen to be there she also used to work over at Alta but anyway I was telling them about how my bottle it's broke it it leaks it barely I can I have to unscrew the cap to try to get out product. Mind you, I have been buying for 4 years, the NARS radiant longwear Foundation and have never once had this type of issue with the pump. The rep proceeds to suggest that I buy a new pump that only cost me $6! What whaaaaaa🤔🤨🤔! Really? I then said excuse me, but I shouldn't have to spend $6 or anything for a new pump I should get that pump for free at the very least! Because that is a $50 bottle of foundation that I bought. I have bought $6 bottles of foundation from wet and wild and I didn't even have that issue 🫣. 🤨. Then I told him to pull up my my order and the rep at Sephora claimed that she could not find my purchase on and their system! What is she talking about I bought that foundation actually I got it with 20% off during the spring time Sephora sale as a rouge member! This is a matter of it being a packaging defect. They should at least at the very least give all of us a $6 a new screw cap or whatever They know. You just lit a fire under me. I'm going to I'm going to screenshot this and shoot this over to Nars Syracuse because and I'm going to tell him to refer to what you just said. Girl this is the only thing I wanted to talk about because I bought my my foundations I think for the year I'm just going to try to finish up some I have some really good ones the Lancome the latest Lancome that's real dewy It's beautiful I got that on sale for $38 couldn't believe it. And of course my Pat McGrath Foundation I misplaced my Armani luminous silk I'm thinking I think I will get it since today is Cyber Monday yeah. Because I changed my mind about getting the YSL hours all hours Foundation It has alcohol in it. I did purchase that Danessa Myrick's What is it foundation bomb that you just talked about. I bought the clear or translucent It is wonderful with my foundations. I think I'm going to get the four cuz I'm tan I have a lot of yellow in my complexion I don't know see there four or five I'm not medium though medium tan I don't know I'll just get one and I'll make it work because that product is everything It's everything it just is! It's sold out on her website though justifiably so! 🙏🤎🧡🍁🤗🎁 Take care. I think everybody sleeps on Tarte Facetape I just started my second about a month ago bottle. And summertime it keeps you looking great for over 12 hours airbrushed look I think it's like third behind yeah it's about third It's it's it's definitely not less than that My third best foundation way it performs and works on my skin In the winter time I I use extra products like hyaluronic acid and Clinique moisture surge to keep the moisture so I can I can use this product in the winter time when it's dryer because it is a matte finish but it's a beautiful I think it's more of a velvet matte, My Charlotte Tilbury Foundation that's a solid foundation for me. I bought it after I was sent a small sample from Nordstrom's gorgeous on me. LYS foundation that's a heck of a $22 foundation product It works like or just as good as those in that 35 to $50 range.
