I did almost a full face of Merit yesterday. I like their products. I do use the highlight under the foundation. like a primer. It stays to tacky on top. Even if i set it. But my base always turns out really pretty. I use BK 106 brush. 💖
I am so intrigued with merit and have one of the new lipsticks. There is a great set that includes the foundation and several other products for 100 bucks! So glad to see you use this since I have dry skin as well. Love you Mal and hope you are doing well. From one spoonie to another! ❤️
I tried it for the first time and I was so disappointed to see that the lightest shade was too dark for me! 😭 What a bummer! I really liked how it looked and how easily it applied, but I need a much paler shade! The new RMS in shade 000 is perfect for me, which so rarely happens (most fair shades are too pink)! Thank you for reviewing it! It looks beautiful on you!! Hopefully, they extend their shade range! ❤️
Just bought several things from them to try. I am 43 with oily combo skin and have a minimalist makeup approach so TikTok noticed and sent me Merit and Typology. I am excited to try their Linen, the brush, the bronzer in Clay, the lip oil in Cara cara, the blush in Beverly Hills. I skipped the brow product as I have bushy eyebrows and can’t find a brow product that doesn’t make them look super dumb. 😅 I am hoping it doesn’t settle into pores, cake around nose, or separate over my sunscreen. Looking for a natural, perkier complexion and a sexy glow.
I received my products and they didn’t live up to the hype. I am back to using my own powder blush and bronzer, and really only using the concealer stick (sparingly) in a few spots. I love the bag, the blending brush. The blush was not pigmented enough, and neither was the bronzer which is weird because I’m pretty pale. It wears off fast too. The lip oil is pretty and more pigmented than the ones I bought from Typology, it’s sheer with some nice color but my natural lip shade is fairly pigmented kind of mauve so it’s not as intense on me as it would be on someone with pale pink lips. I could go for a better stain look.
I really like how that looks on you. It’s really pretty. I don’t mind trying a stick foundation as long as it covers my pores. I’m fixing to be 62 and I’m going to try it. Maybe it won’t set in my wrinkles. 🤞🏼😂 I like that it doesn’t cost an arm and a leg like some of the ones I’ve tried. Thank you Mal, another great video. 💗
Just when I thought I’ve watched all of your videos…..☺️ I’m getting ready to travel and I was looking for reviews on the Merit Complexion foundation stick and your beautiful face popped up first in my search! I’ve used this before but I purchased the wrong color. I’m trying to bring makeup with me that’s not so bulky and this will be perfect! It looks so beautiful on your skin! I have dry skin and I recently purchased the Merit Oil which is so crazy amazing! I think they will pair perfectly! I swear I’m so confused about my undertone Mallory! I’ve always thought that I’m a neutral undertone but the shade you used looks like it will work for me. I already have the Merit complexion brush so I’m good there. Now I’ll go to Sephora and grab a new one. Thank you for such a great video! 💜💜 also your makeup still looked great after working out!!!
For some reason, it always sticks to my dry areas and looks awful. I'm going to try the wet sponge and see if that helps. Do you feel like it looks cakey until you do that?
Am quite late on this one but am wondering if this is similar to the nars soft matte complete concealer? I've used that one in a similar way and works super well finish is more natural than matte at least on my normal skin.
Wait! I also grabbed mine again coincidentally. Maybe it’s because I saw people talking about the new one more and forgot how good it was! Currently on vacation and I’ve been loving it ❤️
Really nice video. Makeup looks the same as you first applied it, even after the workout. Looks great. I definitely want to try it this foundation stick, especially on the go!Thank you!
So glad I found this review! I have been thinking about purchasing for my purse. Having dry skin, stick foundation normally looks awful on me. I am hopeful with this one!
Not heard of it don’t no why but I’m in the UK so hopefully I can find it, I love the minimalist look. Didn’t realise I was subscribed to you but glad I cans across this now cause I love your makeup
Looks really good! I like your eye shadow, too. PS If you're looking for pillows to match your green drapes I saw some at TJ Max. They are 2 for 24.00. They come in a twin pack, good deal. In with the new Fall decor. It's hard to find dark green anything! grr
Love you and your videos! ❤ I’m super late to the stick foundation trend but after watching this video and looking into this type of foundation, I came across the Tom Ford stick foundation. I’m wondering if you’ve tried it, and how it compares to the merit, westman, and hourglass foundation sticks?
Such a beautiful finish!! I'm amazed at this foundation 🤩! I've always been into cream and stick products, too bad this brand is not sold in France (in Europe?) 😒😒😒
UGH! you are so beautiful! AND I LOVE how you don't overly concern yourself with the pups making noise, i've noticed other folks do that and to me it is something that shows how much like us with normal-ish lives you are. Plus, like children- pups need to be left to do pup things without being shushed.
I’m surprised you find it glowy. The first set to me made me look like a desert. I have super dry skin. Every foundation or tint that everybody says is “dewy” for them, turns out to be natural or matte on me. :( the dry skin struggle. I like their brush and highlighter though! I like the Saie tinted moisturizer on you!

I have super large pores on my cheeks, and it doesn’t enhance or sink into them! Let me know if you try it, and tell me your honest thoughts❤️
@@ImMalloryBrooke me too except mine are around the side of my nose area. 😝
Just checking if you tried it because I’m 56 and would like to know if it worked for you 😁

How crazy!!! We are all connected by the beauty gods🤣 I’m LOVING IT!!! Hope you’re having an incredible vacation girl❤️
I use shade sand as well and now I am going to buy shade linen for my under eyes. Thank you for the tip
I think you will LOVE the combo! It's so quick and easy😍
Really nice video. Makeup looks the same as you first applied it, even after the workout. Looks great. I definitely want to try it this foundation stick, especially on the go!Thank you!
It looks great on you!! This is what I wish foundation looked like on me! Might have to check it out!!
Have you tried the Basma foundation stick? Wondering what you think of it for dry skin.
So glad I found this review! I have been thinking about purchasing for my purse. Having dry skin, stick foundation normally looks awful on me. I am hopeful with this one!
I LOVE this foundation for that very purpose! Let me know if it works for you!
@@ImMalloryBrooke I will, for sure!Thank you for being 100% honest with your reviews. I know I can trust your thoughts on products.
Have you tried The Minimalist! I honestly almost forgot about it, so I'm glad this little change they made forced me to try it again😅
Not heard of it don’t no why but I’m in the UK so hopefully I can find it, I love the minimalist look. Didn’t realise I was subscribed to you but glad I cans across this now cause I love your makeup
Yes I am into packaging and appreciate the breakdown
This is the only stick foundation that I actually like for my dry skin.
You've got me anxious about the glitter accent under eyebrow.. edge of my seat. Can't wait!!! As always the best. Thanks.
Just bought this…. Waiting for it to be shipped! Thanks for doing a video on it!
How long did shipping take? I’m so impatient! So excited to try it our.
Thank you! I’m considering buying this, and I think I will.

Loved this review thank you mal. What are some of your favourite earring brands?
Thanks girl! Ana Luisa, Catbird, and random finds on Etsy.
Hi. How does the Merit stick foundation compare to the Milk stick foundation? ❤
Love you and your videos! ❤ I’m super late to the stick foundation trend but after watching this video and looking into this type of foundation, I came across the Tom Ford stick foundation. I’m wondering if you’ve tried it, and how it compares to the merit, westman, and hourglass foundation sticks?
Merit beauty are beautiful products
Yes 😊
Amazing footage!!
Thanks girl! Glad you enjoyed it
Such a beautiful finish!! I'm amazed at this foundation 🤩! I've always been into cream and stick products, too bad this brand is not sold in France (in Europe?) 😒😒😒
Love your nails!!!
hey my beautiful MalPal, how does that CT bronzer compare to the Chanel bronzer BEFORE they changed the formula?
UGH! you are so beautiful! AND I LOVE how you don't overly concern yourself with the pups making noise, i've noticed other folks do that and to me it is something that shows how much like us with normal-ish lives you are. Plus, like children- pups need to be left to do pup things without being shushed.
Have you compared this to the Hourglass foundation stick?
I havent! But i’ve heard good things❤️
I think I want to buy it! I want to see it in person at a counter. Does Sephora sell this?
Most impressive foundation although girl you couldn't look bad if you tried!
You are too kind!
@@ImMalloryBrooke True words! Enjoy your weekend!
How does it compare to the westman atelier foundation stick?
I havent tried it, but I this is my favorite out of the ones I’ve tried.
And love the eyes too!
Thank you!!!
I feel like we look like we could be related, lol. So obviously I subscribed so I can follow whatever works for you ❤😂
I’m surprised you find it glowy. The first set to me made me look like a desert. I have super dry skin.

Try By Terry's stick. It's dewy & gorgeous. I'm super dry and since half of the stick is a highlighter it really is beautiful on dry skin.
5:29 Heheh “Mal-leable” 😂
That's what I was thinking too lol
woot!| first like/comment! :)
Hahahaha and we've just been chatting lol!!!!
Can you do a makeup tutorial on Hailey Bieber?
I LOVE HAILEY!!! so maybe, probably, now that you say it
