On the topic of fragrance in facial/skin care products, I never used to have a problem with it. But as soon as I entered into menopause, the sensitivities and allergies emerged. Fragrance along with chemical sunscreen filters are now off my list altogether. I suffered a nasty contact dermatitis rash last year from a combination sunscreen. My face looked like raw, ground beef and itched like mad. 🥵 Not something I ever want to repeat so the warnings are valid.
I'm usually the same shade matches as you. I use Gotland in Winter and Groenland in Summer. Nars Radiant Tinted Moisturizer is literally the most perfect thing that's ever graced my face (I'm 45, Normal-Dry). I ADORE it!!... 😊💜💜💜 The fragrance doesn't bother me either (physically or perceptually). It is clearly only there to mask any (unpleasant) odour from the ingredients, and dissipates after 5 mins max.. 😎✌🏼
I react to basically all products with synthetic fragrances, including ones (like the new Westman Atelier liquid highlighter) that claim to be using "safe" syntheitc fragrances. I wish that companies would just leave it out.
They usually use fragrance to mask the (unpleasant) scent of the ingredients... I don't find this (Nars Radiant Tinted Moisturizer) is an issue on my sensitive skin and its such a light, fresh scent that after 5 mins, you literally cannot smell it anymore...
Hi Shelley, hope you had a great time in Ireland? For me the issue with fragrance in face products is that it makes my eyes water, my nose starts to run and I can get a lot of irritation. I have no probs with a small amount but some skincare/foundations literally make me weep uncontrollably and my eyes can sting for hours!! xxx
Can I tell you how impressed I am with that foundation after watching your video. I'm shocked. For a "tinted moisturizer"?! I matched with this on Ulta and am heading out to buy it tomorrow because of this video!
Hi! I love Alana Mitchell’s tinted moisturizer with spf 44 (mineral sunscreen). You get 2.1 ounces, it is a universal tint so no shade match,, and it’s my daily go to. I also just got the Missha bb cream. Tried it today and it’s a keeper!
I sat next to a Canadian couple at a recent dinner event and the husband said he hates All Dressed flavor and I just about died =D lol I am obsessed with it! Our Costco stores here currently have a 3-flavor mix bag of chips with BBQ, Salt & Vinegar, and All Dressed, and it's as close as I can get picking around all the other chips to get the All Dressed ones!
That is very yellow lol I’m the same way every foundation is so different even within the same brand same names totally different color you have to swatch in store or guess I just got super lucky on my hourglass it’s the absolute perfect color looked like I put nothing on … testing it tomorrow love the Hourglass jellyfish and leopard pallets … Love your make-up colors!!! 🤍🤍🤍🤍
Yes, it's a great product. I'm surprised you had never tried it before. Alaska is too yellow and too dark for me too. I think Finland would be perfect for you. The site says it also has warm undertones, but from experience it's neutral. Thank you so much for mentioning perfume in products. I completely agree with you that they are unnecesary, and I've actually had to get rid of products because I could not stand the scent. I find the scent in the Nars tinted moisturizer fairly pleasant and more importantly that it goes away quickly. Hope they have not changed it!
Great video! And don't be hard on yourself - I often eat popcorn for dinner! But of course with lots of real butter and GARLIC SALT on it. Try it! Thanks for the NARS possibility, even though its not cruely free as you noted.
Love your eye look! LOL on looking like your liver is failing. I have a slight yellow undertone to my skin but prefer a neutral foundation for that exact reason!’ Unfortunately I have a hard time finding light medium true neutrals. I would love to see you review the Bobbi Brown Vitamin enriched skin tint. I love the Bobbi Brown face base as a primer so wondering if the skin tint is the same great formula. However for the price, I would like some coverage. Thank you!!
I don't but I did a similar look with the same palette (Alter Ego Sakura) comparing it to the high end ND palette - ruclips.net/video/0TTQl_eOTPQ/видео.htmlsi=jDiW0pHeNon0MHEg
A good amount of products with fragrance make my face burn! So no thank you and agree, no thank you to jaundice as well. LOL Feeling like I need to run to my COSTCO as soon as they open tomorrow. Good review. Surprising coverage.
One of these days I will figure out the most non-peopley time to go to Costco. A friend of mine has been grabbing me snacks and I venmo her money to avoid the peopley-ness there =D lol
Thank you Shelly. Your foundation compilation list doesn’t seem to have a lot of your more recent reviews, I think it may need kindly updating please ? X
I really like this tinted moisturiser. Unfortunately, none of the colours suit me. The light ones are either too pink or too yellow, which is a shame because it has good coverage, lovely texture and sun protection.
There is something about Nars's warm tones that don't play well on my super-light yellow-undertone skin--they pull peach/orange on me. I need to go neutral with that brand--I love the Light Reflecting Foundation in Oslo, which they call cool toned! I have red hair and yellow-green eyes, folks, nothing cool-toned here. Something to keep in mind for those who have had "orange" vibes with Nars shades. Just got a promo email from Alter Ego that they released a Huda dupe called Mirage--here's hoping you got it in PR?!
You have cool undertones. Definitely. If I were color typing you, I'd call you a Cool Summer -- stronger coloring than Classic Summer, but not intense enough to be a Winter. 🙂
It's frustrating. Why don't they do more neutral shades? Finland is neutral in my experience, but also very pale, so depends on your skin tone. Gotland is actually a bit peachy, not yellow at all, and in between Finland and Alaska in terms of depth.
Love this tinted moisturiser and have used two tubes . But I wish they would not have added the fragrance . Their other foundations and base products don’t . The fragrance thing conflicts me 😂
There must be something in the ingredients that either product testers reported as smelling unpleasant, or that consumers have traditionally found to do so. My guess is probably the Octinoxate (which I'm pretty sure has that typical "sunscreen smell" that most people don't like), because I think this is the first Nars base product that had sunscreen in it. I know they have at least one primer with sunscreen, but I'm pretty sure the tinted moisturizer predates all of them, because it's definitely an "older" product (I know it's existed for at least a decade, and hasn't been reformulated to my knowledge), and was released before consumer opinion started shifting in regards to fragrance.
Another Letterkenny fan (even though I wasn't impressed with last season.) Do you also have the subtitles on?? hahaha. But yeah, the foundation/skin tint looks good but the color's a little too yellow for you. You look better in slightly cooler tones (I do too).
The first couple seasons I totally watched with subtitles LOL!!!! Then one day I could magically understand them! I don't know if that's good or bad but I do walk up to people now saying, How are ya now?
I think fragrance can be sensitizing. After years of using BBW’s products, I’m now allergic to fragrance. There are some fragrances I can tolerate; but all BBW products make me break out in an itchy rash.
I am so sensitive to fragrance, my allergies and asthma go crazy! It blows my mind how beauty/household products are full of fragrance. Fragrance-free should be the standard and then have the option if you choose to want fragrance. It doesn't make sense that strong fragrance would be the 1st and only option for most products.
Have you tried the Rare Beauty Tinted Moisturizer? I'm thinking about buying it this Tuesday. 100% of all proceeds when shopping at Sephora will go to the Rare Beauty Fund.
@goow I also got their mini eyeshadow palette with the mini mascara, lipstick, and blush. I love everything so far. I plan to put the tinted moisturizer to the test tomorrow while I am running errands all day.
I have a few that work really well for me! This one, the new Danessa Myricks, the Wet n Wild Tinted Hydrator, the Ilia Super Serum, the Iconic London skin tint.... those are the ones I can think of off the top of my head that I use regularly :)
I just wish companies would leave fragrance out all together. Not only does my skin react to fragrance but I find certain fragrances will give me a headache. Imagine spending stupid amounts of money on a foundation only for it to give you a headache and in NZ it's not so easy to return a product for that reason. If people want fragrance, put it in a perfume and keep it separate.
I’d love to see the new Mac foundation on us… you … hahaha. I’d pro be the NC10 looked like on the website … got some great claims!!! I almost ordered it but I just got the Hourglass 🤣🤍🤍🤍 I couldn’t find a good color in this one

Nars tinted moisturizer is one of my favorites. I would love to see a review on Estée Lauder
Futurist Skin Tint Serum Foundation.

I’m glad you talked about fragrance. I avoid it or it irritates my skin. Wish I’d known all this weekend I was younger 😊
Nice on pores and texture or lines. Pretty coverage.
Love NARS tinted moisturizer I go between Finland & Alaska
Now that is some extreme weather!!!
This is one of my favs
This looked beautiful!❤
Ok this is a tangent but your eyelashes look amazing with your eye makeup in this review!
Thanks, Helen!!

Your makeup looked like it was just applied at the end of the day! That stuff is amazing!
We have a very similar skin tone. Im neutral and can wear cool, neutral, and peach. Never warm though! I use terre nueve shade in this one.

Love your make-up colors!!! 🤍🤍🤍🤍
Came for the makeup...LOVE tge shout out to Covered Bridge chips! They are the best.
I basically had them for dinner tonight lol!
You look amazing!! Your lashes are popping!! ❤❤
Your skin looks freakin great

Oooh I need to grab that skin tint!! And why the heck is it so hard to find true neutrals?
Shelly, my motto is “life is too short to too long not to be happy!” So I always eat the cake, chips, and buttered bread!
Hey it’s Shelly! ❤ 😊
Do you have an eye makeup tutorial for this look? So beautiful 🤩
I don't but I did a similar look with the same palette (Alter Ego Sakura) comparing it to the high end ND palette - ruclips.net/video/0TTQl_eOTPQ/видео.htmlsi=jDiW0pHeNon0MHEg
Hi Shelly. Do you plan on reviewing the new Estée Lauder Futurist tinted serum? I’d love to see more reviews on it.
Yes!!! It's next on my to-buy list!

Yep I am in the process of making some revisions to the technology behind it at which point all of the more recent ones will be added too!

Could you pls review Yummy Skin Soothing Serum Skin Tint Foundation with Peptides + Ceramides
Added to my list - that sounds awesome!
Where did you get the sample? I would love to try this!
It was one of the choices of samples from one of my Sephora orders. NARS is in the options pretty regularly.
I think fragrance can be sensitizing. After years of using BBW’s products, I’m now allergic to fragrance. There are some fragrances I can tolerate; but all BBW products make me break out in an itchy rash.

Hi Shelley..I hope everything is ok.
How is your kitty doing?
She is much better, thank you!!! She gave me a scare there. Her temp got up to 104.5 very quickly and out of the blue. But antibiotics did the trick.
Have you tried the Rare Beauty Tinted Moisturizer? I'm thinking about buying it this Tuesday. 100% of all proceeds when shopping at Sephora will go to the Rare Beauty Fund.
I haven't tried that one yet but I love when a good cause is supported!
@goow I also got their mini eyeshadow palette with the mini mascara, lipstick, and blush. I love everything so far. I plan to put the tinted moisturizer to the test tomorrow while I am running errands all day.
I'm not allergic to fragrance, but it sure as hell triggers my migraines... It's a definite nope in facial care for me.
🦌
I'm bummed the Nars has Fragrance. I really wanted to try that tinted moisturizer, but Fragrance is a deal breaker for me. :(
What is your favorite skin tint?
I have a few that work really well for me! This one, the new Danessa Myricks, the Wet n Wild Tinted Hydrator, the Ilia Super Serum, the Iconic London skin tint.... those are the ones I can think of off the top of my head that I use regularly :)

So no extra concealer ??
I've got the Haus Labs concealer on for this one.
Thanks ❤. Just love your videos! My daughter is a teacher so when you give the grades 😂 I just laugh out loud
Thanks, but the fragrance makes it a pass for me.
Thanks, Elle!!
I literally couldn't see it on your skin at all. Looked like all you put on was water 😂So it def looked skin-like!
You are so sweet and wonderful!
Sounds like a great “girl dinner” to me lol
LOL totally!!
I actually thought your hair looked great today lol
I’d love to see the new Mac foundation on us… you … hahaha. I’d pro be the NC10 looked like on the website … got some great claims!!! I almost ordered it but I just got the Hourglass 🤣🤍🤍🤍 I couldn’t find a good color in this one
I just filmed the new MAC!
