As someone who did in fact buy the Fenty foundation stick after watching your video - please do not feel bad! We are all consumers and we are in charge of our own purchases. I love how you do your reviews, you are so incredibly thorough and you really care. You could not have known that your opinion would change, and you show a lot of integrity actually admitting it. You are amazing. Don't beat yourself up about this! :)
I just LOVE your transparency and GUTS to publicly change your opinion based on your experience. I trust you even more for that, even if I'm still all about that Fenty tint stick!!!
I wanted to like this because I prefer drugstore price points for cosmetics and saw several recommendations on YT. I also like tinted sunscreens or moisturizers over high coverage foundations as I'm older with dry to combo skin and think lighter coverage looks more natural on me. I thought this was thick and mask like and not hydrating at all. Both the light and light medium shades looked orangey. I'm glad it works for some people. Maybe I will try different skin prep or mixing with other foundation to adjust the shades.
The glossier skin tint is my fav for mixing into my other foundations!! I love it for making more sheer foundations, I like the glow it gives on my dry skin. On its own it’s basically nothing but for mixing?? I love!!
PSA for everyone who may be panic buying/stocking up on the Tom Ford Traceless Stick Foundation (me): please make sure to check your batch number when you receive your product! I followed the advice of another consumer on Sephora who shared this information and received an expired product as well as several others! The batch number is on the bottom of your foundation stick. I checked mine and thankfully it was only manufactured last year and has a 36 month shelf life but just please be careful ladies and gents! I recently bought the foundation for the first time when i first saw that it was half off and then bought another one as a back up so i really hope it's not being discontinued or reformulated!
The YSL really was a game changer for my oily skin. I love it for daily use. It def looks like I'm wearing makeup, but it is perfecting, not cakey at all despite the coverage level, and I'm all for that!
Morgan, you were born for this job! You are SO good at this. Every video you make gets me engaged and your recommendations are always spot on! 👏 p.s. Will you be reviewing the Natasha Denona my dream mini collection? Can’t wait!
This year I was obsessed with Haus Labs Triclone foundation. The color match was perfect 👍🏾 The way it wears all day/night on my skin(Normal to dry). Honorable mentions-Dior Backstage, Danessa Myricks skin tint & balm and the OG MAC serum foundation are in heavy rotation for me😁
I might be the only one in the world that have combination dry skin but prefer matte foundation, and the only one that doesn't accentuate my dry patches is the YSL All Hours, while the famous Giorgio Armani luminous silk went on me fine at first but started to show my dry spots through the day.
I love that Tom ford foundation stick and I’m 69! Beautiful coverage. Also love Hourglass Ambient and Merit stick foundation. Haus labs is not bad but just ok.
Skin type makes all the difference. The YSL works amazing for my normal to oily t-zone, late 40’s skin. It’s my favorite of the year. It looks natural, it’s long lasting and the best part is the shade.
I want to buy this based on an individual sample but I’ve made so many purchases I regret this year. I have enough makeup to be a reviewer but haven’t worn half of it. Repeating to myself “You are not Morgan Turner…”
I have combo dry skin. The best foundations are Hourglass ambient soft glow was the best followed by haus labs, estee lauder double wear, nars light reflecting and shiseido synchro skin.
I have dry skin and I love the YSL All hours and the new KVD Good Apple Foundation. If I pay highend prices, I want full coverage. There are tons of great skin tints from the drugstore and Korean Beauty.
I look forward to your uploads. I think you are wonderful. I appreciate you honesty. Very candid. You save me money. I have normal to drier, tight feeling skin. So I say dry. What I don't like is some of the negative and sarcastic comments left by subscribers. I could never do that. But hey thats just me
I have very oily skin and I live in LA so I love the ysl foundation for the extra SPF when even my winter is sunny AF 🙃 I agree that not as easy to blend, I apply with my finger and spread it around one section and then use a sponge to blend it out. I also use the tatcha powder on my T zone. I don't find it to be too drying on my skin.
Danessa Myrick’s was doing a 12 days of Christmas sale and each day they offered a product for $12. I picked up three shades of the Yummy Skin Tint because it was such a bargain and I needed to meet the minimum for shipping. I love the Yummy Skin Blurring Balm powder so will try these together. And I also love the Glossier liquid foundation.
You are soooo correct about the Fenty stick foundation!!! I love having a foundation I can carry with me- it was ok at first but I figured out I hated it the day after it was returnable 😢.
I have been using Wet&Wild hidrated tint and is the best tint/foundation I have ever used. I have 3 high end foundations and I always reach out to Wet&Wild. Thanks Morgan
I also think it is fascinating how different products work on different people. I ❤️ the Glossier Foundation and the Keys Soulcare Skin Tint. I hated the L’Oréal Infallible.i trust your opinion so much, your picks always work for me.
I bought the Tom Ford foundation stick this year after your recommendation. Oh my goodness…what a game changer. It really is something I save for when I really want to be bougie. I absolutely love it.
For me, I have normal to dry skin also that can be acne prone and sensitive. I'm also almost 35. I tried 2 foundations this year that didn't come out this year lol. The Elf Satin Finish foundation was soo great for me! I have even repurchased it. Great medium coverage and wear throughout the day. The Colourpop Pretty Fresh foundation was nice at first application but way too dewy through the day, especially in the humidity.
Thank you for the videos! The worst foundation for me this year was the KVD Good Apple Serum foundation. That foundation was AWFUL. I tried to use it so many different ways but it just did not work for me. The best one I tried this year was hands down the Clinque Even Better Cliniclal Serum foundation. That one completely changed the game for me.
I have mature skin. My skin is dry and very sensitive. I've started having an issue with dark spots this year. The worst for me was Loreal Age Perfect Radiant Serum Foundation. It looks like I've put pancake makeup on! All bad...My new favorite is It Cosmetics Your Skin But Better CC+ Illumination SPF 50+. This stuff performs in every way it claims. Looks very natural and covers my hyper pigmentation.
I have combo, leaning oily skin. The foundation that I fell in love with is the new Laura Mercier! It's incredible! 🩷 The worst foundation of the year was the Sephora Collection Best Skin Ever, it was drying, it caked, it cracked, it was hideous!! 😕
Your eyeshadow is really mesmerising. I just keep watching at it the entire video lol. It's like a neutral look but somehow you incorporated color in the most beautiful way.... it's just a touch. Like perfect. I don't really have a top 5 foundations. I do have mostly sensitive, dehydrated but combo skin (the overall face is dry, the zone is oily, but still dehydrated) that leans cool toned pink. Do note that I use a face cream and let it sink in any time I do my make-up (the lait-creme sensitive from embryolisse, only use a tiny bit to prevent pilling) 1: I just really like the soft glam filter fluid glow booster from catrice. For quick out of the door days, and I put it on with the applicator, then rub it softly onto my face with my fingers in circular motions. natural glow with some coverage. This is probably my most used ''sort of foundation''. 2: I use the Nyx can't stop won't stop for more coverage days, and when I want something more matte. 3: My ultimate favorite foundation is the loreal true match. It hits every tick for me. I loved it to pieces. Except...... - I didn't buy it after my first bottle, because the brand it's selling is not cruelty free and I found out that make-up could be non cruelty free made at a older age. But I prefer cruelty free products over anything else.
My Favourite foundation of this year is the Guerlain Parure Gold Skin Matte Foundation, I got mine in the shade 1N my skin type is combination between oily to dry skin it is also sensitive and prone to break out's, this is the best high end foundation that has wowed me, I am loving it so much! It would be superb if you would do a review on that one, I'm not sure if you have already. 😊
I am in the minority when i say I prefer full coverage matte or semi matte finishes, BUT I am 66 years old. While my skin looks good with few lines due to religious skin care, I still have things that a full coverage will help with. I am also dry-like dragon scales. My favorite foundations are Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush, KVD Good Apple (even though it isn’t marketed for dry skin it is awesome), Juvia’s Place I Am Magic both the regular and matte formulas, and Nars soft matte. I don’t like glow or skin tints at my age.
My skintype is combination. I love the Armani Luminous Silk Foundation. I will never use anything else! And I also loved the YSL All Hours Foundation.. I always prep with hydrating primer and Hourglass Vanish Airbrush Primer on the nose/pore area. The key is to not use too much foundation. It makes my skin look like porcelain. I dont use it daily, only on special occations.
The wet n wild is the best! I’ve been a makeup artist for 20 years, and out of all my luxury products, it’s my personal fave on my skin. I hope they don’t discontinue it like they did their cushion foundation because that was my original fave.
I have normal to dry skin. My fav of this year were - Gucci cushion de beautè. It’s my favourite, it has great cool undertones, glowy finish, beautiful medium coverage and it melts into the skin. Definitely pricey but worth it. - Nars light reflecting -Givency prisme libre glow During the summer I prefer not to wear foundation but the Chanel Eau de Teint.
Similar to many of the comments here-I absolutely love the Fenty Blur stick. It works really well on my skin and when blended out, you can barely tell I’m wearing anything at all. I will say-it takes VERY little to go a long way and sheers out. You never know how something may work for your skin type.
Dior skin glow is my number one! But wish I could find a similar vibe that’s cruelty free. My skin breaks out with the Shea butter in the hourglass tint 😅
I adore the Fenty stick and cannot wear the Tom Ford. I am a 55 year old grandmother and the Fenty still looks good on me after a 6 to 8 hour day. The Tom Ford looks cakey after 30 minutes of application. I have tried more skin prep, primer, no primer and have no success with Tom Ford. I am happy I caught the sale at $45 at Nordstrom😂
Hi Morgan, nice video. My Tom Ford shade is sold out everywhere, and until they reformulate it (fingers crossed), could you please give us a couple stick foundation alternatives that are pretty good?
I recently moved to a new, colder and dryer climate (plus forced air heating) and have suffered the worst eczema outbreak of my life as a result, so have really been leaning on skin tints/tinted moisturizers since normal foundations, even high end ones that everyone loves, have just been too cakey. Anyway, my worst of the year is the Smashbox Halo Healthy Glow Tinted Moisturizer and the best one has been the Erborian CC Red Correct!
This year my favorite was purlisse BB cream and my worse was juvias place skin tint, it was just too thick and dry for my skin, I just bought the cover girl perfector essence foundation, I am excited to try it out, it has micro beads in it, kind of like the Chanel fresh water tint. My favorite foundation of all time is still Nars light reflecting foundation.
I have dry,mature 40 year old skin. Lancome Renergie is #1. Also like Colour Pop pretty fresh tinted moisturizer, Revlon illuminate, Nars Light Reflecting.
I love the Hourglass skin tint and it’s the only foundation from hourglass that worked on my skin. I also love the Tom Ford Traceless stick foundation, I just bought a backup from Sephora for 50% (also picked up the soft matte foundation on the same discount, as I love this foundation. It’s my holy grail!).
I have the same skin type as you, and I HAVE TO mention Ilia serum whatever skintint (don't remember the whole name). Not because of the coverage but because my skin started looking FLAWLESS after a few weeks of using this. I had 3 different people, including my doctor, ask me if I'm a dermatologist or a cosmetologyst. Our conversations weren't even about skin. My doctor was checking my neck and looking down at my face when he asked me that. Mind you, I suffered from acne my whole life. I have texture and occasional breakouts. Having multiple ppl react to my skin like this is saying something. Whatever they put in that Ilia bottle, it works like magic. 😅
On my combo skin, the Glossier stretch foundation turned into a pastey oil slick on me by mid-day which is really unusual for me. I was SO sad, I had to return it.
My oily skin holy grail in humid Orlando is Estée Lauder Double Wear in Ecru. A new love for me is the r.e.m. beauty foundation in Light 1N and Maybelline Super Stay Skin Tint (just hate the dropper!) in Shade 110!
Lol you’re awesome, Morgan, and I always love your reviews (even if I don’t always agree). Your husband’s video editing is also on point and hilarious at the right times. My fave foundation is the Makeup by Mario for glowy days and Makeup Forever HD for matte days. Sometimes I even mix them! My least favorite (unpopular opinion) is the Armani Luminous Silk, which everyone and their mom seems to love, but it looks so powdery on me! Anyway keep up the great reviews - PS I was a teacher too ❤
You got me to try the TF stick and … yeah. BEST, most natural, flattering ,BEAUTIFUL second skin foundation I’ve ever tried with THE most perfect shade match (Btw- I’m an older fan of yours. Double nickels this year but we have similar tastes. I’ve tried LOTS of foundations 😉) I found mine on the TF site when I first heard about sale/clearance and loved it so much I then ordered the soft matte foundation (also 50% off). It’s of course a different formula/finish/coverage- but I love that too! I’m glad to hear it’s not discontinued but being repackaged. I’m not so glad that that probably means it’ll cost even more $$$. Oh well, I’ll still repurchase forever! Merry Christmas Morgan!
Hi Morgan, I wish you a wonderful 2024. I’ve been enjoying your videos this year. I have watched you for a while just not subscribed. I wanted to ask which foundation your prefer better the fenty or makeup forever powder foundation. Have a wonderful day.
I love the Hourglass Veil Hydrating Skin Tint, and it’s the only product of its kind that I have ever liked. It is also the only base Product that I prefer to apply with my fingers. It is very glowy, so that may put some people off, but I think it is flattering on my 54-year-old (normal/oily combinaton) skin. I also absolutely LOVE The Glossier Stretch Foundation. It is amazing and wears very well on me, for hours. It has a natural finish with a very subtle, barely detectable, understated glow that is beautiful. My only complaint about it is the shade range. I use Light 4 (light with pink undertones), which is just a tiny bit too light for me, but the next “light with pink undertones” shade (Medium 4) is WAY too dark. I wish they had a “Light-Medium 4” shade in between.
My favorites of the year were not new. Tower28 (had not liked initially and somehow it became my favorite trying to use it up) and Chantacaille just skin.
I 7:17 I think the same with Gucci foundation 😅 always is the same … everybody told me is not a good day foundation and always is the days when im wearing gucci
I have the Gucci foundation and agree that it can look cakey. I only use it with the Gucci primer and go lighter with applying it. That seems to work best.
My best foundation this year is the Maybelline Super Stay 24H Skin Tint (oily skin) but i also love the tinted hydrator from wet and wild in the wintertime when my skin gets a little drier.
I can’t recall if you convinced me to buy the fenty stick foundation but I really like it on my combo oily skin, it’s very lightweight and melts well into my skin. The only thing I have to powder it but I powder all my foundations because of my oils. I really didn’t like the Glossier foundation as that really sat on top of my skin but I did like the coverage it gave me. I’m coming to Miami tomorrow from the UK 😊
It’s interesting how foundations can work for some and not for others. I love the Fenty Stick foundation.
Agreed!
Same! Best foundation I tried this year 😅
So do I!
Me to
I hate it 😂

Wet n Wild my favorite foundation ever! Performs better than any luxury product I've tried!

Same!!! Everyone's always thinning out foundation with moisturizers or oils but the tinted water works beautiful!!

It’s not on sale in Ireland so maybe just get rid of older stock?!?!
Thanks I didn’t even check mine
The YSL really was a game changer for my oily skin. I love it for daily use. It def looks like I'm wearing makeup, but it is perfecting, not cakey at all despite the coverage level, and I'm all for that!
Morgan, you were born for this job! You are SO good at this. Every video you make gets me engaged and your recommendations are always spot on! 👏
p.s. Will you be reviewing the Natasha Denona my dream mini collection? Can’t wait!

Iove the Wet n Wild hydrator skin tint. I have mature skin and it's great on my skin
The Glossier Stretch Foundation is my current. The formula is perfect for my combo skin and the coverage is “natural” and perfecting at the same time.
The bottle looked like she had the old version of the product
I want to buy this based on an individual sample but I’ve made so many purchases I regret this year. I have enough makeup to be a reviewer but haven’t worn half of it. Repeating to myself “You are not Morgan Turner…”
I have combo dry skin. The best foundations are Hourglass ambient soft glow was the best followed by haus labs, estee lauder double wear, nars light reflecting and shiseido synchro skin.
Tom Ford shade 00 Pearl is sold out everywhere too 😢
I have dry skin and I love the YSL All hours and the new KVD Good Apple Foundation. If I pay highend prices, I want full coverage. There are tons of great skin tints from the drugstore and Korean Beauty.
I look forward to your uploads. I think you are wonderful. I appreciate you honesty. Very candid. You save me money. I have normal to drier, tight feeling skin. So I say dry. What I don't like is some of the negative and sarcastic comments left by subscribers. I could never do that. But hey thats just me
I have very oily skin and I live in LA so I love the ysl foundation for the extra SPF when even my winter is sunny AF 🙃 I agree that not as easy to blend, I apply with my finger and spread it around one section and then use a sponge to blend it out. I also use the tatcha powder on my T zone. I don't find it to be too drying on my skin.
Danessa Myrick’s was doing a 12 days of Christmas sale and each day they offered a product for $12.

I love your eye look!!
always love your honest and wholesome reviews, wish there more beauty influencers like you!
best foundation I tried this year - nars light reflecting foundation
worst foundation - elf camo powder foundation
Morgan I have heard good things about Prada beauty can you please test their foundation and stuffs
Wishing you and Jose a wonderful holiday and safe travels.
You are soooo correct about the Fenty stick foundation!!! I love having a foundation I can carry with me- it was ok at first but I figured out I hated it the day after it was returnable 😢.

Love the wet n wild
Love the wet and wild for everyday. ❤
Im a dry skin mature lady and I’ve loved the Haus Lab and stuck with it and repurchased it.
The Revlon colorstay is awesome too! I get the one for dry skin.
I love the rare beauty tinted moisturizer 😍
I also think it is fascinating how different products work on different people. I ❤️ the Glossier Foundation and the Keys Soulcare Skin Tint. I hated the L’Oréal Infallible.i trust your opinion so much, your picks always work for me.
The last video you mentioned tomorrow ford, I sprinted to Niemans and got 1.4 and 1.5 they are so great!!!
I bought the Tom Ford foundation stick this year after your recommendation. Oh my goodness…what a game changer. It really is something I save for when I really want to be bougie. I absolutely love it.

The Colourpop Pretty Fresh foundation was nice at first application but way too dewy through the day, especially in the humidity.
Your eye makeup looks GORGEOUS on your eyes!!! One of my faves on you
Morgan-after all of these years, I still love your beauty review videos and have loved watching you grow & evolve. Hope you’re enjoying Spain❣️❣️🇪🇸🇪🇸
Thank you for the videos! The worst foundation for me this year was the KVD Good Apple Serum foundation. That foundation was AWFUL.

my fave foundation is fiona stiles matte finish. i purchased 5 when she was going out of business.
P.s. Your eyelook is 🔥🔥🔥
I have combo, leaning oily skin. The foundation that I fell in love with is the new Laura Mercier! It's incredible! 🩷
The worst foundation of the year was the Sephora Collection Best Skin Ever, it was drying, it caked, it cracked, it was hideous!! 😕

Please do a concealer version!
I like the Danessa Myricks primer in the compact. It’s SO blurring. Not much coverage but if I want to look smooth, I love it!
My best foundation of this year has definitely been the original fenty eaze drop skin tint!
my best is and always will be mac face and body foundation. but right now I'm enjoying maybelline serum foundation ❤
My Favourite foundation of this year is the Guerlain Parure Gold Skin Matte Foundation, I got mine in the shade 1N my skin type is combination between oily to dry skin it is also sensitive and prone to break out's, this is the best high end foundation that has wowed me, I am loving it so much! It would be superb if you would do a review on that one, I'm not sure if you have already. 😊
This is off topic but imma need you to look into Ensley Regien cosmetics. Their eyeshadow palettes look so amazing!!
I am in the minority when i say I prefer full coverage matte or semi matte finishes, BUT I am 66 years old.

Thanks for your opinions on these products!
I tried the Anastasia Beverly Hills luminous foundation and have been shocked by how much I love it. I also love the glossier foundation
The wet n wild is the best! I’ve been a makeup artist for 20 years, and out of all my luxury products, it’s my personal fave on my skin. I hope they don’t discontinue it like they did their cushion foundation because that was my original fave.
I have normal to dry skin. My fav of this year were
- Gucci cushion de beautè. It’s my favourite, it has great cool undertones, glowy finish, beautiful medium coverage and it melts into the skin. Definitely pricey but worth it.
- Nars light reflecting
-Givency prisme libre glow
During the summer I prefer not to wear foundation but the Chanel Eau de Teint.
i love the laura mercier weightless foundation i wish people talked about it more (i have oily skin and it’s the only foundation that lasts on me)
For me the best foundation - I have combo leaning dry skin and I tried the Haus Labs and it was my favorite.
omg absolutely obsessed with your eyeshadow in this video! what palette/shadow is it if you remember? love your videos btw
Similar to many of the comments here-I absolutely love the Fenty Blur stick. It works really well on my skin and when blended out, you can barely tell I’m wearing anything at all. I will say-it takes VERY little to go a long way and sheers out. You never know how something may work for your skin type.
Normal to dry skin. Fenty skin stick is awesome, Haus Labs is now my holy grail.
Prada is discounted on selfridges, i knew you wanted to try it
I ordered mine since many people swear by it
Agree with number 1. I have never used a skin tint
Best Revlon Colorstay - oldie, but a goodie
Also loved the Loreal Skin Tint!
I'm oily skin & living in dry SoCal!
I've been forcing that YSL to work too. It's thick and creates texture.
Danessa myricks yummy skin foundation is sooo good. I have oily skin and I use the elf poreless primer with it. 10/10
I used my old Marc Jacobs concealer stick as foundation ilovvvvvved it n miss it. Currently using yummy serum foundation.
Dior skin glow is my number one! But wish I could find a similar vibe that’s cruelty free. My skin breaks out with the Shea butter in the hourglass tint 😅
I adore the Fenty stick and cannot wear the Tom Ford. I am a 55 year old grandmother and the Fenty still looks good on me after a 6 to 8 hour day. The Tom Ford looks cakey after 30 minutes of application. I have tried more skin prep, primer, no primer and have no success with Tom Ford. I am happy I caught the sale at $45 at Nordstrom😂
My best of 2023 was the LYS Triple Fix serum foundation. I have more mature, normal skin. Thanks for the recommendations and warnings!
Hi Morgan, nice video. My Tom Ford shade is sold out everywhere, and until they reformulate it (fingers crossed), could you please give us a couple stick foundation alternatives that are pretty good?
I recently moved to a new, colder and dryer climate (plus forced air heating) and have suffered the worst eczema outbreak of my life as a result, so have really been leaning on skin tints/tinted moisturizers since normal foundations, even high end ones that everyone loves, have just been too cakey. Anyway, my worst of the year is the Smashbox Halo Healthy Glow Tinted Moisturizer and the best one has been the Erborian CC Red Correct!
I loveee your work! Merry Christmas from Brazil 💖✨
My fav was Haus Labs foundation, worst was the Glossier stretch.
This year my favorite was purlisse BB cream and my worse was juvias place skin tint, it was just too thick and dry for my skin, I just bought the cover girl perfector essence foundation, I am excited to try it out, it has micro beads in it, kind of like the Chanel fresh water tint. My favorite foundation of all time is still Nars light reflecting foundation.
Ester laudear double wear foundation is drier than YSL foundation, even with my very oily skin. It was so dry.
I have dry,mature 40 year old skin. Lancome Renergie is #1. Also like Colour Pop pretty fresh tinted moisturizer, Revlon illuminate, Nars Light Reflecting.
Prada foundation over Chanel rosy light drops, game changing.
Great review thanks Morgan happy New Year 🎉 everyone 💜🌻✌🏻
Best Prada and Hourglass
Worst: Fenty sadly
I have bought the Tom Ford in Ivory and Natural many thanks I love it 🙋♀️🇬🇧
The revlon illuminance for me love your videos but i also live in Missouri
True about fenty stick! I returned mine.
I love the Hourglass skin tint and it’s the only foundation from hourglass that worked on my skin.
I also love the Tom Ford Traceless stick foundation, I just bought a backup from Sephora for 50% (also picked up the soft matte foundation on the same discount, as I love this foundation. It’s my holy grail!).
I have the same skin type as you, and I HAVE TO mention Ilia serum whatever skintint (don't remember the whole name). Not because of the coverage but because my skin started looking FLAWLESS after a few weeks of using this. I had 3 different people, including my doctor, ask me if I'm a dermatologist or a cosmetologyst. Our conversations weren't even about skin. My doctor was checking my neck and looking down at my face when he asked me that. Mind you, I suffered from acne my whole life. I have texture and occasional breakouts. Having multiple ppl react to my skin like this is saying something. Whatever they put in that Ilia bottle, it works like magic. 😅
On my combo skin, the Glossier stretch foundation turned into a pastey oil slick on me by mid-day which is really unusual for me. I was SO sad, I had to return it.
My oily skin holy grail in humid Orlando is Estée Lauder Double Wear in Ecru. A new love for me is the r.e.m. beauty foundation in Light 1N and Maybelline Super Stay Skin Tint (just hate the dropper!) in Shade 110!
Lol you’re awesome, Morgan, and I always love your reviews (even if I don’t always agree). Your husband’s video editing is also on point and hilarious at the right times. My fave foundation is the Makeup by Mario for glowy days and Makeup Forever HD for matte days. Sometimes I even mix them! My least favorite (unpopular opinion) is the Armani Luminous Silk, which everyone and their mom seems to love, but it looks so powdery on me! Anyway keep up the great reviews - PS I was a teacher too ❤
You got me to try the TF stick and … yeah. BEST, most natural, flattering ,BEAUTIFUL second skin foundation I’ve ever tried with THE most perfect shade match (Btw- I’m an older fan of yours. Double nickels this year but we have similar tastes. I’ve tried LOTS of foundations 😉) I found mine on the TF site when I first heard about sale/clearance and loved it so much I then ordered the soft matte foundation (also 50% off). It’s of course a different formula/finish/coverage- but I love that too!
I’m glad to hear it’s not discontinued but being repackaged. I’m not so glad that that probably means it’ll cost even more $$$. Oh well, I’ll still repurchase forever!
Merry Christmas Morgan!
Hi Morgan, I wish you a wonderful 2024. I’ve been enjoying your videos this year. I have watched you for a while just not subscribed. I wanted to ask which foundation your prefer better the fenty or makeup forever powder foundation. Have a wonderful day.
I love the Hourglass Veil Hydrating Skin Tint, and it’s the only product of its kind that I have ever liked. It is also the only base Product that I prefer to apply with my fingers. It is very glowy, so that may put some people off, but I think it is flattering on my 54-year-old (normal/oily combinaton) skin. I also absolutely LOVE The Glossier Stretch Foundation. It is amazing and wears very well on me, for hours. It has a natural finish with a very subtle, barely detectable, understated glow that is beautiful. My only complaint about it is the shade range. I use Light 4 (light with pink undertones), which is just a tiny bit too light for me, but the next “light with pink undertones” shade (Medium 4) is WAY too dark. I wish they had a “Light-Medium 4” shade in between.
My favorites of the year were not new. Tower28 (had not liked initially and somehow it became my favorite trying to use it up) and Chantacaille just skin.
I 7:17 I think the same with Gucci foundation 😅 always is the same … everybody told me is not a good day foundation and always is the days when im wearing gucci
have you tried perricone md tinted moisturizer? i would love a compare contrast of tinted moisturizers.
Nice video, Rimmel Kind & Free foundation is what is my fav one…quite enjoyed using it this year
The glossier stretch foundation is my favorite foundation of the year.
I have the Gucci foundation and agree that it can look cakey. I only use it with the Gucci primer and go lighter with applying it. That seems to work best.
My best foundation this year is the Maybelline Super Stay 24H Skin Tint (oily skin) but i also love the tinted hydrator from wet and wild in the wintertime when my skin gets a little drier.
I can’t recall if you convinced me to buy the fenty stick foundation but I really like it on my combo oily skin, it’s very lightweight and melts well into my skin. The only thing I have to powder it but I powder all my foundations because of my oils.
I really didn’t like the Glossier foundation as that really sat on top of my skin but I did like the coverage it gave me.
I’m coming to Miami tomorrow from the UK 😊
Completely agree with the fenty stick foundation. At first I was like YASSSS 3 weeks later it went in the trash 😮😢
