Finding a good shade was kinda hard, but once I did, I fell in love. I am the same skin type as you so you had the same experience as me. Tip on the color: the neutral shades are better for yellow undertoned people and the golden is better if you have red undertones. Definitely get a sample first before buying!
I have this foundation and I LOVE it! A tip: it's AMAZING really massaged in with your fingers. I have dermatillomania, so there's always a ton of scarring and scabs on my face, this covers it perfectly. A little bit definitely does go a long way. I just wish it wasn't so expensive though ($34 in Canada), I'm a student and idk if I'll be able to repurchase it.
sam, with all these foundations and etc. you're reviewing, do you still keep the ones you don't like or do you return them to your local sephora? and do you ever get a complain form them about returning so much all the time if that is what you do with what you don't like?
I actually worked for clinique and we were told to tell those looking at the product its best to use your fingers because of the oxidation the foudation goes through (which is why it looks dark). So sometimes its better to go lighter and use a bronzer as needed.
I can never get enough of your in depth videos 💘 you are sooooo beautiful😩 I would love if you can make a video of a foundation routine including a spf moisturizer to match with it for this summer🙏 a foundation for oily skin that will last a good amount of time and won't get runny through the hot day🙌 thank you for your videos doll! Xoxo
I have owned this foundation for like almost a month now and I really really like it! I luckily found a perfect match dispite my yellow undertone. I can apply it either for a light coverage or full depending on how much I apply but both ways it looks amazing. I agree with the application being better with a brush too!
I love this product! I went searching for concealer and foundation at Mac and they just didn't haven't anything that matched my skin tone. I went to sephora I was so happy!
I barely bought this 2 days ago. On the first day I used way to much and I was very oily, and today I applied very little with a beauty blender and afterwards I applied the NYX finishing powder. I only had to touch up once during the day on my nose :)
I was so excited to see you review this foundation in particular as I got an email from Clinique announcing it's arrival. I thought the concept sounded pretty interesting and you know you are my #1 beauty consultant. Your review as always was super honest and to the point and I think it's worth a try. I especially like that it wore well and seems to work for all skin types. Clinique should thank you Sam since I will be getting some on-line. It looked great on your skin which is my litmus test for any product.If you like it, it's a go for me=)
Love this Foundation. Tried it for the first time today and it had superb coverage. I think it's pretty comparable to Estée Lauder double wear. But once I powdered it was instant cake face. Might be unavoidable especially since this foundation is mad dewy.
Hey i really appreciate that you put the comparison products below! Because idk what shade i should get for Clinique. Maybe golden neutral? I cant swatch it because im ordering it online so i have to do alot of research ☹️ Anyways, have you tried La pro girl concealer? If u have what’s your shade?
When u said ....yall ain't gunna tell me i had somethinggg in my teeth...haha i was like....i was telllinnggggg u but u didnttt hear me gurlll lol...great review...loved it!
If you were to compare it to the Double Wear one, what would you say? In terms of finish, coverage etc. I love double wear but it sometimes looks a bit heavy on my skin. Thank you in advance :)
i love this. but hate that it was dewy for me, i felt like it would never get settled in, im oily/combo but i loved everything else about would you recommend something that's close to this, but not too dewy.
Love your reviews, they're the best in youtube! Can you please do a review for the Clinique Stay Matte Foundation?! I have oily/combo skin and I have seen other good reviews for this foundation. thanks
I just found you today because of your shade comparisons (I'm the same, so helpful!) and I really like the quality of your videos and your reviews. You have a new subscriber here!
Could you tell us what you're most used brushes/applicators are? I'm looking for a good blush brush,setting brush for undereyes,lower lash line brush and contour brush
I love watching your videos. I find out so much information. I will say when you watch your videos do you notice your words are faster than when your speaking? I noticed that but i thought it was something minor but this is the second video i seen that in. Im still subscribed. I love your style, fashion sense and colors you choose to do with your hair
I really recommend getting a white foundation so you can use a foundation that's darker. I do that because it's hard to find really pale, yellow undertone foundation.
Thanks for doing this review because I saw this new foundation and was considering trying it out. It looked great on you, and I think I will try it. I purchased that same flat top kabuki brush on Amazon, and it is amazing. It has turned into my go to brush for liquid foundation.
You and I are the same shade but what's the other yellow toned one that you mentioned? Was it hazelnut? I was just assuming based on the shade colours shown in the Clinique website. This one seems to be a tad bit darker and I saw someone else's review on this saying this foundation oxidises. Is it true?
can you do a top 5 or 10 foundations. I'm the same shade and skin type as you, but i always have to go into each videos to try and remember which ones you liked more and which you didnt. i don't like the feeling of foundation so i'm looking for something reasonably price (pref drugstore), semi-matte and lasts a long time. lol. tried maybelline fit me matte, but that still feels cakey. lol.
Fragrance free doesnt mean its not going to have any smell to it. It just means they didn't add fragrance in the ingredients. For example they didn't add like a perfume smell or ny kind of fragrance to the foundation . Therefore, the foundation will just smell like the ingredients that are in it.
Hi! Always love watching your videos! :D Quick question tho, what foundation would you recommend for really humid and hot places where you might sweat like for example, the Philippines? Im traveling there for the summer && still kinda new to makeup so I'm not really sure what to bring makeup wise.
It looks pretty but bc spring/summer is coming it doesn't seem like it would be a good foundation for us ladies that sweat a bit on our faces lol. Could you do a video about the best spring/sunmer foundations , tinter moisturizers etc? thanks love!
Honestly, the only foundation that works for my very oily skin is the Estée Lauder Doublewear. I'm so annoyed because I'm currently so pale that the lightest shades are way too dark for me! Your skin tone looks like you'll find a perfect match all year round though, and you barely need any. It's not cakey or heavy if you use a beauty blender and apply minimal. Another beautiful foundation that really holds up on my skin is the Smashbox Studio Skin hydrating 15 hour foundation. It's so gorgeous.. Hydrating but not oily and somehow the pigment doesn't budge xx
Have you tried the Neutogena skin clearing oil free blemish treatment foundation? It's oil-free and says it has microclear technology and there's a matching mineral pressed powder with it! You should do a video on it(:
When something says "fragrance free", it means the ingredient. Anything can have a smell. It doesn't have the ingredients "fragrance" or "parfum". Something can have a bunch of essential oils, but be called "fragrance free" because it's not synthetic. I hear a lot of beauty gurus that saying the same thing, so just thought I'd let you know :)
I laughed when you were talking about how Clinique's shades are usually mostly pinky toned--also Thai with the same skin shade match here and skin type (which is why I was thrilled to find your channel--you've saved me a lot of time and foundation returns ;) I used to get so frustrated trying to find a foundation/concealer match with Clinique (which was pretty much what was available pre-Sephora days). I've been trying out this new 2 in 1 Foundation & Concealer b/c I got a sample of it, when I ordered from Sephora. It just says shade g neutral (MF-N)... lol, I just looked it up on Sephora, it's shade 9 Neutral. I thought maybe it was lighter than yours. Anyway, I thought 9 Neutral looked okay on me--it was maybe a hair darker than I'd like. Overall, I think it was okay & I don't think I'll purchase the full size--not being able to find a better shade match would drive me crazy. Right now, I'm really loving Loreal's Infallible.
great review, would've loved to see a picture or a close up in day light. Whenever you get a chance please make a review of giorgio armani lasting silk :) bisous
i live near-ish tysons too!! i recently got this foundation and love it!! i had the same issue with it look so cool and pink on me!! i got the shade 8 cuz it was the only medium golden shade!! when u said that i was like "YAS" out loud haha
I've got a yellow undertone to my skin and found a perfect colour match in this foundation. However, I have an oily T-zone and found that this foundation did nothing to help that, in 2 hours my face looked like a grease ball.
Where's my $5? Jk I need your help I want a drugstore foundation for dry skin. I'm the about same skin tone as you. And would you recommend a brush or the beautybleader
I recommend the beauty blender not because it's "more hydrating" but because if you use it with like mac's fix+ it will sink into your skin and also using a brush will create like a mini scrub that could make your skin start peeling like if you were using an exfoliator on your face so the beauty blender is the best way to go
I love love your foundation reviews... Please please pretty please review the Younique Mineral Pressed Powder... We have the same color/shade... I wanna try it but I wanna see a review first.. Also I dont know what color would match us nc30 girls... Your review is the only one i would trust... I hope you will see this request & do this review... 😊
I purchased this foundation 2 days ago and I LOVE IT! So easy to blend and super amazing coverage!
Whoever is debating on getting it, PICK IT UP :)
"Gone, bro." 👍

I still don't understand how you don't have more subscribers! You're my favorite beauty guru!
Your skin is something to really be envious of! 👍🏼

Linen, yellow toned and light. Love the match for me. ✨💙✨
I had been waiting for a review of this foundation for a while... the fact that you are reviewing it makes it even better!
I went into Sephora looking for a new foundation and they suggested this one and I LOVE IT!! Glad to see someone reviewing it!
I love how your straight to the point.... you have a very matter of fact style that I love, love, love! New subscriber!
Most underrated makeup youtuber ever, hands down.
sam, with all these foundations and etc. you're reviewing, do you still keep the ones you don't like or do you return them to your local sephora? and do you ever get a complain form them about returning so much all the time if that is what you do with what you don't like?
I think she returns him, saw her returning stuff in one of her vlogs

Which would you say is the most yellow shade ?
+Woke Favela the color she has. Golden Neutral.

Hi!! I was just wondering if you could do a review of the maybelline mineral powder foundation?
Haw about a video on your opinion on how well the sephora color match works on finding the perfect foundation shades.
Could you tell us what you're most used brushes/applicators are? I'm looking for a good blush brush,setting brush for undereyes,lower lash line brush and contour brush

Yessssss I'm yellow af and find it hard to find my colour in Clinique. They do the best foundations though!
All of them are always so pink! ugh
Just noticed your PO Box is in Merrifield by where I live! Small world! Super cool 😘
Hmmm I want to try this but the applicator weirds me out and I doubt they would have a light enough shade. The formula of it seems amazing though!
can you do a top 5 or 10 foundations. I'm the same shade and skin type as you, but i always have to go into each videos to try and remember which ones you liked more and which you didnt. i don't like the feeling of foundation so i'm looking for something reasonably price (pref drugstore), semi-matte and lasts a long time. lol. tried maybelline fit me matte, but that still feels cakey. lol.
Fragrance free doesnt mean its not going to have any smell to it. It just means they didn't add fragrance in the ingredients. For example they didn't add like a perfume smell or ny kind of fragrance to the foundation . Therefore, the foundation will just smell like the ingredients that are in it.
Digging the intro haha. Hey girl hey should be your official intro!
Hi! Always love watching your videos! :D Quick question tho, what foundation would you recommend for really humid and hot places where you might sweat like for example, the Philippines? Im traveling there for the summer && still kinda new to makeup so I'm not really sure what to bring makeup wise.
girl, try the loreal infallible and revlon colorstay! those babies go nowhere. NO WHERE
Ali Flamm alright, I will! haha Thanks girl!! :D
It looks pretty but bc spring/summer is coming it doesn't seem like it would be a good foundation for us ladies that sweat a bit on our faces lol. Could you do a video about the best spring/sunmer foundations , tinter moisturizers etc? thanks love!

I normally wear the same shade of foundation as you and my match in this foundation is cream chamois

Where's my $5? Jk I need your help I want a drugstore foundation for dry skin. I'm the about same skin tone as you. And would you recommend a brush or the beautybleader
Loreal true match lumi
beauty blender more hydrating
Maybelline Fit Me (the original) & use a beauty blender.. I mix mine with the Pixi primer from target (I have very dry skin)
I recommend the beauty blender not because it's "more hydrating" but because if you use it with like mac's fix+ it will sink into your skin and also using a brush will create like a mini scrub that could make your skin start peeling like if you were using an exfoliator on your face so the beauty blender is the best way to go
Reckon color stay!!!!! The dry skin formula is AH-MAZING
I love love your foundation reviews... Please please pretty please review the Younique Mineral Pressed Powder... We have the same color/shade... I wanna try it but I wanna see a review first..

Mix the foundation with a light colored moisturizer to make it lighter .
