HAD to watch this when I saw the NYX drops in your thumbnail! I tried them a few times, and could never figure how to make them work for my combo skin. This was so helpful! Definitely pulling them out again to give them another try. Great video, girl!!
My problem with drugstore foundation is that I have yellow and olive undertones so I can't find my shade!! I want to find a drugstore foundation bc girl wants to save $$. The only tinted moisturizer that works from the drugstore is neutrogena bc it has a medium olive choice. PLEASE spam me with suggestions for drugstore with undertones I mentioned 👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽
Artist N Soul Try to find on youtube people that have your same shade from mac or other brands that you like, that whats is helping me to find my correct shade.
+Artist N Soul I'm yellow too! Not sure on the olive part but the nyx mentioned has tons of shades, ex1 does olive tones too, not drugstore but under $20 I think
Artist N Soul wetnwild even though the smell comes off strong to me has a lot of shades. I think they also label them like cool, neutral and warm within each shade section. Also I believe they have a shade matcher on their page where you can put in what you are currently using and it will tell you the closest shade they have. Good luck hun.
Same here. The Wet n Wild foundation actually has a good selection of yellow, almost olive shades. You should check that one out. I'd definitely avoid CoverGirl because their shades run pink/orange, but the L'Oreal Infallible Pro-Matte has a few shades that are very yellow.
I'm olive too and the only drugstore foundation that has matched me is the Jordana 2-in-1 foundation. I've tried the Milani foundation (identical product, different packaging) but that runs more orange. The Jordana foundations have olive in some of the shade names! Very helpful.
I love watching your Oily Skin Diaries and your Products for Oily Skin series. I have super dry skin so I know NOTHING about oily skin products, however, a lot of my clients and friends have combination or oily skin (quite a few have super oily skin) and your videos help me to know what to recommend for what they may need.
here in Winnipeg I can find the Wet n Wild foundation at Superstore (Loblaws) and they have a good selection of shades with descriptions of tones. Unfortunately it is super popular so if you are a medium shade it may be hard to find! But only costs $7-8 so would be worth buying a couple of shades to use individually or mix to get the perfect color
My stores are discontinuing the Covergirl ready set gorgeous foundation. However, I've found that the Covergirl matte bb cream is almost identical in ingredients and feels the same on the skin.
I live in the niagara region and I found the wet n wild photo focus foundation at a Walmart in St Catherine's! Some Walmart carry them! But it's hit and miss
You can buy the wet n wild photo focus foundation at well.ca for fellow Canadians. They don't have every color available on the site though unfortunately .
I'm dying to get my hands on that covergirl vitalist! So far I haven't been able to find it at Ulta or Target! But I've heard my local Walmart carries it so will have to make a trip! I wanted something natural looking for the summer. Very curious to see how it wears on my oily skin! :) great round up!
fyi for Canadians I stock cosmetics at superstore and we carry the wetnwild foundation lol it just sells out reaaallly fast i usually have to order double what we actually need
+Samantha Jane I'm thrilled that I came across your channel! I'm in my early 40's, so I'm old enough to be your mother. However, I love you're style, personality, and trustworthy recommendations. Of course, I have to tailor them to my specific needs, but you point me in the right direction. 💄
Since Ex1 Foundation came out with new shades (at least 13) and new shades in their setting powders, I'd love to see another review from you! No, I don't work for the company!
I do like that dream cushion foundation. Even though the color isn't quite right for me, I wear it anyway. I've accepted the whole foundation mask look 😂
I don’t know if you’ll see this, but how long did the maybelline dream cushion foundation last on you? I’m super tempted to try because of the natural finish but I have a long commute to work and my makeup is on my face for about 14-15 hours each day. I also have super oily skin!
+Simran Jha it's hard to recommend without seeing you, im NC42 as well, so either the shade I use or the shade down - I have swatches of a few of them in my review!
I don't know if you tried the HD liquid foundation by Catrice, but it's a really pretty foundation same with the concealer. Maybe you can do a review? love from Croatia ❤
I tried the Ready, Set, Gorgeous, and it didn't really look to great on me. 😫 It had a weird texture to it. It almost looked overly powdery or something. I wanted to love it, too.
Can you do a high-end version because I think your shade matches me and I don't know which high-end foundation to pick. I'm very yellow and that can be a problem with some brands! Thanks Sam!!! 😊
I noticed the polishes in your background. Are those EVEby eves? If so, don't you love the formula and color selection? I own over 20 shades, and they never disappoint.
They are actually from L'Oreal! I love the formula on these too, I did a nail swatch video on them last year :) ruclips.net/video/SeE96RsjVSQ/видео.html
Watching you and putting on my NYX drops! I love it when that happens lol Btw- I totally get full coverage with... maybe 8 drops? My skin has been clearer lately though. Maybe the coverage differs with the shade.
+SF Stefanie yah in my review I got great coverage, but as I mentioned the more drops the less I like the look on my skin! And it's not at all economical at the size of bottle you get
Hi Samantha! That sucks that they don't have Wet N Wild in Canada! I love them! I'm wearing their shadow right now! If you need/want anything I can always get it and mail it to you. Just let me know anytime. Take Care, Tracy🌺🌺🌺
Hi Sam .. I live in middle east and it’s freaking hot here !! Like the foundations will never stay throughout the day ! I am oily too .. based on the facts I gave you and from your experience.. can you give a name of high coverage foundations that are around 30$ ?
That CoverGirl one is $6-10???? GAHHHH. You and Kaitlyn keep hyping it up - one day I'll crack! That wet n wild one though... good grief is it ever good!
I am cruelty free, therefore I love wet and wild, the nail polish in the shade stay classy is my favorite
NYX is cruelty free too :)
HAD to watch this when I saw the NYX drops in your thumbnail! I tried them a few times, and could never figure how to make them work for my combo skin. This was so helpful! Definitely pulling them out again to give them another try. Great video, girl!!
Thanks so much Bailey!! I hope it works out for you, let me know how it goes

Try well.ca, linked above!
Thanks I was on the fence with the Maybelline Cushion, because usually they are for dry skin!
Agreed, I was totally not thinking it would work
Definitely gonna try out the Total Control Drops. Somehow the super small packaging is calling out to me! x
+Liz L I knooooow, me too!
My stores are discontinuing the Covergirl ready set gorgeous foundation. However, I've found that the Covergirl matte bb cream is almost identical in ingredients and feels the same on the skin.
Aw man, that sucks! But I agree, they are both great!

Hopefully you can track it down soon and you like it!!
I actually love that you can't really see your pink eyelids until you blink, it's like a surprise :)
hahaha eye surprise, I love it
This was my request!! You're so awesome! Thanks!
Thank you for reminding me to do it again!
Good morning 😌 thank you for all your great videos! Have a wonderful day!
+Cynthia Duhon you too Cynthia!!
I have only tried one of these so enjoyed hearing your thoughts. ♥ Elle
Thanks so much Elle!!
wow none of those stayed on my face and my skin is super oily 😐🤷🏻♀️🤔
You can buy the Wet n Wild foundation from well.ca!
Yes! I have it linked above :)

Thanks Bonnie!!!

Good to know, thanks!
Love these videos. Thanks so much.
Thank you for watching!!!
Do you think you could ever make a new video on your favorite drug store products.
+Samantha Jane I'm thrilled that I came across your channel! I'm in my early 40's, so I'm old enough to be your mother. However, I love you're style, personality, and trustworthy recommendations. Of course, I have to tailor them to my specific needs, but you point me in the right direction. 💄
Aw thank you so much!! I'm 27, a lot of people seem to think I'm younger than I am, you could be my teen mom haha :) But your remarks are so sweet
What shade do you use for the wet and wild foundation???
All of my shades are listed in the description :)
What's a good primer for oily skin?
I love the YSL Touche Eclat or Neutrogena Shine Control
Since Ex1 Foundation came out with new shades (at least 13) and new shades in their setting powders, I'd love to see another review from you! No, I don't work for the company!
+Catherine Rodriguez the shade I have works for me so that review should still stand as long as the formula hasn't changed!
Can u please compare the L'oréal and Maybelline cushion foundation??
+Elaine Kim I haven't tried the L'Oréal but I've heard it's more dewy, so I think I'm gonna stick with my beloved Maybelline ahha
Hello can you please make a review for the covergirl Elixir thank you :)
I already have one, linked below :)
I do like that dream cushion foundation. Even though the color isn't quite right for me, I wear it anyway. I've accepted the whole foundation mask look 😂
hahaha it's just that good!
I don’t know if you’ll see this, but how long did the maybelline dream cushion foundation last on you? I’m super tempted to try because of the natural finish but I have a long commute to work and my makeup is on my face for about 14-15 hours each day. I also have super oily skin!
I have a full review listed in the description if you'd like to see my wear test!
Hi! I'm around nc40 during the winters and around nc42 during the summers. which shade would you recommend in the maybelline cushion?
+Simran Jha it's hard to recommend without seeing you, im NC42 as well, so either the shade I use or the shade down - I have swatches of a few of them in my review!
I don't know if you tried the HD liquid foundation by Catrice, but it's a really pretty foundation same with the concealer. Maybe you can do a review? love from Croatia ❤
+Donatella hey!!! My boyfriend is Serbian, I wanna see Croatia so bad! I haven't tried that, it's hard to get in Canada :(
Samantha Jane I've never realised how hard sometimes is to ship to Canada some things. I realised this now by watching you and simply nailogical.
When wearing these other foundations daily is a primer used? Love the Cover girl ready set gorgeous!! I have combo skin with oily t-zone.
So glad you enjoy the RSG!! I don't always wear primers, depends on my mood!
Samantha Jane Good to know!
I have 5 of them and I love them all 😻😻
+Geraldine Mercedes great minds think alike
How does the Nyx drops work when you mix with a moisturizer?
I've only used it as a foundation!
are the covergirl foundations u mentioned better than the 3 in 1?? I hv super oily skin
+Fairuz Anika try the ready set gorgeous!
Samantha Jane which primer do u usually use with that? would any mattifying primer work?
I tried the Ready, Set, Gorgeous, and it didn't really look to great on me. 😫 It had a weird texture to it. It almost looked overly powdery or something. I wanted to love it, too.
Aw that's too bad!
Can you do a high-end version because I think your shade matches me and I don't know which high-end foundation to pick. I'm very yellow and that can be a problem with some brands! Thanks Sam!!! 😊
+Jasmine I have a round up from the 12 days of foundation and my fave high coverage foundations that includes high end to hold you over
Samantha Jane Oh thanks I'm going to watch that one now. Thanks again!

I'm definitely interested in trying out the wet & wild one.
P.S. I hope to see you at Gen Beauty =)
Thanks so much for watching!! So glad we got to finally meet :)
Nice suggestions
thanks!
Watching you and putting on my NYX drops! I love it when that happens lol

Anyone else have the lightest shade of ready set gorgeous but its just wayy to dark & orangy?
lil vegan chicken nugget its a perfect match for me but Im usually the second lightest shade in a good shade range
Aw that's too bad!!
Hi Sam .. I live in middle east and it’s freaking hot here !! Like the foundations will never stay throughout the day ! I am oily too .. based on the facts I gave you and from your experience.. can you give a name of high coverage foundations that are around 30$ ?

Wet n Wild full (ish) collection can be found in Walmart, North Battleford SK! 😄 😄😂😂😂😂
+cristina conwi yay!!! Thanks girl
Samantha Jane sometimes it amazes what you can find in odd little town/cities😄
+cristina conwi yes!!!! I seriously miss Lawtons (east coast drugstore) from when I lived in Newfoundland .. they somehow always had the new stuff!!
Wet n Wild could collection available at Walmart in Montreal
That CoverGirl one is $6-10???? GAHHHH. You and Kaitlyn keep hyping it up - one day I'll crack!
