IT Cosmetics & Estee Lauder are my top 2 favorite foundations. I stick with what works and they BETTER NOT change the formula or I will be one furious customer. Thanks for sharing these Stephanie🌞
I tried the Revlon one the last time you mentioned it and it's my new favorite! Thank you so much for the detailed descriptions on what to expect and how it wears...it really helped me choose and it's been perfect for me.
I watched one of your last foundation reviews and broke down and bought the Dior backstage face and body foundation.. and omg I'm so glad I did.. I dont wear a heavy foundation so I absolutely love how this looks on my 47 year old skin.. blurs my pores and looks flawless.. I love it na thank you for the recommendation. Cant wait for the BB cream video..
Oh, my goodness gracious, thank you for this video! I had requested an update on foundations the other day, and you replied you were already working on it...and here it is! You have no idea how I appreciate this. Between reaching the mid-50s mark and upping the Retin-A, my skin has gotten a little bit drier and a lot more sensitive. Every foundation I used to love has been discontinued or is no longer working well. This renewed "best" round up is so timely! I love the way you listed them in order from sheer to full coverage. That is very useful. A million gazillion thanks!
I know this isn't a foundation, but the wet n wild tinted moisturizer is so beautiful. I just rub some on with my fingers, throw on some mascara and lip gloss and I'm out for a quick errand. Plus it's 5.99! I'm buying a back up and I don't usually do that.
Yes just got mine yesterday -wish I had seen in person bc I ordered 3 different and still didn’t get a good match but the foundation itself looks really nice,
The Dior Airflash has been my favorite for a long time. I actually had to give the Le Mer away because to me it smelled like paint. Great recommendations as always.
Thank you for sharing your fave skin like foundations! I really like hearing about how they look on pores and if they have fragrance. It is so nice to have these in one place to refer back to. It's also really nice to see the photos after they have been on a while.
Thank you for this comprehensive review!! Have you had issues with your eye area looking like leather when you smile ridiculously big? I’ve had this issue since I started my Retin A journey. Would love to see your updated skincare and eye creams you recommend!!! Your channel is always awesome to watch!
Love you and really enjoyed this video. For anyone who has sensitive skin, I would avoid the Dior. They use linalool, and limonene(citrus oils) which irritated my skin. Also, the Ester Lauder futurist looked beautiful on, but also was very irritating with the chemical spf. I highly recommend the Sephora best skin ever. I love this one more than my very high end foundations. Flawless coverage and great ingredients!
@@jillianmarie77 I’m older than Stephanie…49. I used to be more oily combo but I use prescription strength retin-a and it’s caused my skin to be more normal/slightly dry in the winter. I use milk hydro grip primer w a little bit of a pore filling primer in a few small areas.
Thank you so much for the great recommendations and thorough, yet concise, reviews. I am looking forward to your top BB creams/tinted moisturizers video!
I would be interested in other people's opinions of e.l.f.'s BB cream. I personally love it, but I've never seen anyone else speak of it. For the price point I'd have thought more people would at least try it out. Has anyone here ever tried it?
Thank you for being a great role model for women of all ages. You seem very humble yet very knowledgeable and have a lot of experience. You have a great personality and demeanor. Thank you for your help and guidance in sifting through so many products. Best of life to you and your family. 😊🌷🌺
I love a sheer to light-medium coverage! Dior Airflash is one of my favorites, Este Lauder Futurist, and Mac Face and body are a couple others I enjoy. Great video!!!
I am a foundation freak, and I have most of the ones that you showed today. Or at least have tried them. I have never tried the essence one or the L’Oreal. I love the Estee Lauder hide a rescue, the bike cosmetics foundation, and Pat McGrath, although she is a bit drying.
I love the Pat McGrath foundation. It’s so low maintenance. If I’m in a rush I just put it on with my fingers right after my sunscreen. No matter what I apply over or under it, it always looks great.
You should never use your fingers to apply your make up. You are spreading bacteria all over your face. Ot will cause breakouts or clogged pores. Use a damp make up sponge or a brush.
@@jerremiller5542 Thanks for the advice. I’ve been doing this for over 20 years and my skin is great. I just make sure that I wash my fingers very well before I apply my make up. Also, I make sure no one else uses my make up or brushes besides me.
I LOVE this video! My two favs in this category are the It Cosmetics Your Skin But Better + Skincare foundation and Sephora Best Skin Ever. Both are GORGEOUS, look like nothing on, but visually improve my (54+ year old) skin. The Sephora foundation is a bargain for quality/price, IMHO.
Appreciated this video because I always like your foundation videos especially the ones when you say they are skin like. I'm looking forward to the BB , CC creams , and Tinted Moisturizer ones also which you said you might be filming soon.
Hi Stephanie, I love Nude by Nature loose powder foundation! It melts into my skin and looks stunning. My shade is 2N. Though the pressed foundation has the corresponding number (for the shade names) as the loose foundation, the loose foundation has a completely different finish. The loose powder foundation is skin-like-the pressed foundation has a flat finish.
The Sephora brand name skin care and make- up is killing it these days! I love the Sephora matte perfection lightweight tinted moisturizer (Thanks to HotandFlashy Angie for the recommendation). And when I am going somewhere fancy, I love the Dior Backstage (thanks to you for that recommendation.) Thank you for all the work that goes into researching the best of the best videos for us!
After many years of not really wearing makeup much, other than mascara so I look like I'm awake, I recently looked into a good foundation. Sephora, bless their hearts, offered a good sample selection of their "Best Skin Ever" and the first color was 10N, which was perfect for me. Love it. I used to have a terrible time blending foundation, but I have a brush that seems to eliminate that - it could also be finally having the correct foundation color, and a good quality one. :) Thanks for a really helpful video. I've subbed and will be exploring your other advice. :) Thanks.
You had me at skin like ☺️. I’m especially excited about the Bite foundation. I’ve never heard anyone talk about it that much. I LOVED the IT foundation - gorgeous! But…..seemed to break me out which was super weird because nothing ever breaks me out. I feel like I will try it again just to be sure lol I’m absolutely loving the MILK skin hydrator. I feel like it gives great coverage and at the end of the day I’m always asking myself -“why am I wearing anything else??” The only downfall is the delivery system. Not my fav but I put up with it because of how awesome my skin looks! Really appreciate all the detail you put into this - incredibly helpful! Xo Tammy 🇨🇦
@@StephanieMarie Would you do an am routine please Stephanie? That would be fab. I'm off to watch the Euros now..the match is between England and Italy....I have to say that there's alot of Union Jacks and bunting around!! Take care xx
Thank you so much for the great video. I absolutely LOVE the new Sephora foundation. I actually found it wears better for me without a primer. I’ve tried every high-end foundation out there and this has been my favorite so far.
loreal true match OG is literally a dupe for The It cosmetics foundation... I've recommended to 7 ppl in the last two years and all of them stoped buying the it cosmetics and now use True Match Original from loreal no joke... it's very skin like and builduble also.... it last a good 8 plus hours on me... set I get 12 plus bcuz I passed out in it and my skin and makeup still looked 👍 .. yes
I love the Dior Airflash too. I'm in 200N. Quite honestly, even though it's $62, I grab one or two when Sephora has their sales going on, or Nordstrom (online, free shipping). I never pay the full price, so getting it on sale brings it to a price in line with most other prestige foundations. After a few hours wear time, if I'm having a bad face day or it's just one of those days where my foundation wants to act up, I just buff my face with a clean, fluffy, dry powder brush and it goes back to looking amazing.
Wow that was a huge review!! Thanks. I have some of these and I want to try some, but the La Mer is $200 here in Australia 😳 !!! So no I don’t think so. 😊
One of my favorite things to do now that it’s summer is to mix a small dot of my Double Wear in Porcelain to the Nars tinted moisturizer in Terra Neuve. Alternatively I might add just a little bit of my essay letter radiant concealer to the tension moisturizer if I feel I need a little more coverage.
I just started using the Dior Forever foundation and I love it for the same reasons you love the Dior Backstage. I think I’m going to have to try the backstage next!
Thank you. Unfortunately I cannot use any of these They either have alcohol or other skin sensitizing extract/ ingredients. I always go through the ingredients at Paula's choice. Would love to see an updated or summer foundation or concealers?!?
Great suggestions.I love the It Cosmetics foundation on my dry skin. It lasts my full work day when I use a primer, a little powder and a setting spray. I love to use the Urban Decay Ultra Glow All Nighter with it. It helps it lasts and adds a little more glow.
Stephanie, I love this Mini Zendo palette! Do you have a video you can link to show me how to you use it on a daily basis? I love your recommendations!
Dear Thank you!I have some questions for u!Is dior backstage good for very dry skin in winter?I got the dior airflash in the shade 201 !There mua suggested this!Its little light and pink for me! And very matte dry on my dry skin!How to fix it?which color to go for in hourglass ambient powders if I am nc 25 skin like u?I know it's a lot but love your content and u!You looks so kind and helpful too!
You might enjoy the Cinema Secrets the Ultimate Foundation! It's a cream and it has some serious lasting power. If I apply a sheer layer, it looks really pretty on the skin. You can also layer it for fuller coverage. I do find that I need to blot during the day, but once I do, I can easily wear it for another 3-5 hours. I might have to retry the the Dior backstage and double wear. I loved the finish of the dior and the longevity of dw, but both creased in my smile lines. I recently found a new holy grail primer though, so maybe it'll wear differently this time.
Thank you for mentioning the It foundation❣️❣️❣️I have it in my collection and completely forgot about it😱I don’t know why because it’s sooo good❣️👍🏼 I use the L’Oréal Infallible to mix into my Korean CC creams to extend their wear time. It works like a dream👌🏻❤️🥰 I want to try some of your other recommendations but I HAVE to get through some of my others before the expire😬😭😉 Love how ALL of these look on you❣️❣️❣️
Isn’t that the truth-I have to get through some of my other foundations, too! I don’t wear foundation very often (I’m disabled from employment due to mobility difficulties, chronic pain, etc.), so I’m not using it up very fast. I do like the Nude by Nature loose foundation powder. It’s is fantastic. My colour is 2N. It’s another one of those “melts into your skin” foundations. Since I found this one, when I do wear makeup, I use the NbyN. My daughter bought the Halo Tinted Moisturizer and the lightest one was too dark for her (she has porcelain-coloured skin), so she gave it to me. I absolutely love it! I even wear it at home!
@@sandybowers5085 Thank you for your sentiments! I have a debilitating spine and neck injury from an assault by a violent Special Education student eleven years ago. I was the SpEd Teacher. There were many reasons why this student severely assaulted me without any provocation from me or other staff or students. This student had very low cognition, but was large, with superior strength. The student had other identified conditions. This student also had a history of assault.
I'm so sorry for your injury and that it disabled you!! Wear your foundations at home for fun!! I do it. Also, I do not force myself to finish something b4 I purchase another. Life, for me now, is too short for that.
Thank you for such an amazingly eloquent video about these foundations. So gorgeous. I almost laughed at the foundation that came after La Mer because it did not hold a candle to it. Ugh, 135 USD? Probably worth it though lol. You have been so detailed I have no questions, but I do strive to be just like you 🤗💖
Great video! Now that I’ve gone with La Mer, I think I’m done with trying foundations. I don’t wear foundation everyday so for the price, I think this is it for me! One day I may try the Dior Backstage, I may have to be completely out of the La Mer though to try it.
I wanted to get that one but I was hesitating at the price of $120. Then I saw that since i last looked, they have actually raised the price up to $135. As it it wasn’t expensive enough already!! I about fell over. It went from being a wavering no to be a HECK no. Lol
Have you tried the By Terry Serum Foundation? If you love the Pat Magrath you would love that one.. and your skin feels and looks good when you take it off .. it’s well worth the price .. because it last a long time and I wear mine a lot and wear different ones also .. would love to see a video on you reviewing it and it last on me in Mobile in summer and feels light and airy ..
Steph I’m with ya on the hydra rescue . Never been my fav and to be honest I regret buying it. However, might be ok in winter. I live in same climate as you 🥵.
Τhank you always for your lovely videos and the time you take to make them. I may have commented on the same issue on another of your videos. My personal experience with the Dior backstage has unfortunately not been as positive as yours. I found it to be a completely flat matte finish that took away any lustre of my skin and made me look older. I am combination and do not like luminous foundations but on me the Dior backstage looked as I said the wrong type of matte. Its always a good idea to request a sample before purchasing a foundation since people seem to have very different experiences with the same products
I have given up on cream stuff in summer, but I’m gonna keep your recommendations for fall🤓😻 in summer, I use Ultrasun facial spf on dry cleansed skin (best ever!!) and when it has sunk in just brush on some laura geller balance and glow baked foundation, thats it❣️
I am dying to try the Revlon Candid foundation and concealer, but right now I feel like yet another foundation in my normally pale shade isn't practical since I am beginning to accumulate a tan and will eventually need to purchase some products in darker shades. I've heard nothing but good reviews and opinions of the Candid.
The Estée Lauder futuristic just ends up being so oily. I’m 58 and it’s just too much. The double wear works best for me. I’m in deep East Texas with tons of humidity.
The it cosmetics is cruelty free. I only know because I was thinking about getting it because it’s on sale right now. I think rawbeauty Kristi or whatever her name is does exclusively cruelty free reviews.
PLEASE PLEASE DO A FULL COVERAGE LIGHT COMPLEXION FOUNDATION FOR OLDER DRY SKIN . Nothing matte . Prefer drugstore brand EVERYTHING turns orange on me .I have very cool undertones
Lovin ItAll, have you already tried La Girl green foundation corrector? I have to add a couple drops to most of my foundations. Most things turn orange on me , too!
Unfortunately any foundation that contains sunscreen is an automatic no for me since they are usually a chemical sunscreen or a mix of chemical & mineral (full spectrum) My skin just doesn't tolerate chemical spfs as I found out after trial & error & a visit to my dermatologist :( Personally I'd prefer if they didn't put sunscreen in foundation since as you mentioned no one wears that much foundation to have proper protection & most of us already wear a sunscreen as part of our daily skincare routine. Chemical spfs are irritating to many people with rosacea & other skin sensitivities so it makes more sense to leave it out unless the product is an actual tinted sunscreen/moisturizer hybrid. Since I can only use mineral sunscreen, my usual go-to foundation is still It Cosmetics CC Cream since it has a mineral based spf too but I would like to find something better.
Have you tried MAC Face and Body lately? I’ve really been enjoying it after rediscovering it. I’m surprised how much I love it after thinking it was weird, because it grips after rubbing it in. Feel like it’s the only one that doesn’t look like anything, not exaggerating.
@@StephanieMarie you alluded to the essence being a dupe for a high end, but now I'm searching through more videos and can't find it again. Which is it!? I need to knoowww 😖🙇♀️🙂
What I mentioned was that I don't like LA MER that the price isn't the reason that I don't love this brand it's because like more natural brands I use Beauty Counter and I love it! It was a mistake how you interpreted my comment I am not at all perfect I have many many struggles with my skin I also use Prescribed Retin A 0.25% Tretinoin have acne Scars and dark spots so no I am very much on the un perfect side.
My bad. I’m sorry for snapping 😬 It was the wording/punctuation plus it’s been one of those weeks where I’ve had a lot of criticizing comments for random small things so I’m like WHAT is happening!? I’ll delete. Again! So sorry!
I'm in between getting the Sephora best skin; Sephora matte moisturizer or the IT byebye foundation matte moisturizer?? I have mature normal to oily skin oily t-zone. I don't like heavy foundation.
Everything works differently for everyone…different climates, textures, skin care and skin chemistry. I use a thin thin layer and only layer where needed 👍🏼
Stephanie, on your foundation shades list you have that you use light medium 10 on the pat mcgrath but on this video you say you use light medium 13. Did u changed it?
@@StephanieMarie Thanks! I find that my sunscreen (Elta MD UV Elements) makes my thicker, matte foundations look like concrete. The Huda luminous matte looks unsightly, for example. A moisturizing primer on top of my sunscreen helps with that, but then it significantly shortens the wear time.
I wanted to love this Estée Lauder foundation sooooooo bad. I did SOOOOO much research and chose this and I feel like it just brings out all of my flaws and pores. So sad.
Love your videos. You do mention if a foundation has a fragrance which is very helpful. However, it would be even more helpful if you mentioned whether a foundation contains alcohol. The Dior foundation lists alcohol as the third ingredient. Applying Alcohol on the skin is drying, irritating and can create free radicals.
I totally meant to do that and realized I mentioned it on some halfway through filming but didn’t at the beginning, so I edited it out 🤦🏼♀️ because I wasn’t consistent. While it can be, because you apply it over sunscreen and skincare and if you apply it inconsistently, it may not be an issue. Totally wasn’t thorough with that on this video. My bad.
thought id let you know because I've seen it a lot of times on your channel, the magic foundation is being replaced by the new beautiful skin foundation which is sad cus i loved magic foundation
I ABSOLUTELY love the Estée Lauder Futurist....it looks phenomenal on my 73 year old complexion...it’s just beautiful on!!!
IT Cosmetics & Estee Lauder are my top 2 favorite foundations. I stick with what works and they BETTER NOT change the formula or I will be one furious customer. Thanks for sharing these Stephanie🌞

Oooh
Everyone loves it
Yes just got mine yesterday -wish I had seen in person bc I ordered 3 different and still didn’t get a good match but the foundation itself looks really nice,
Oh wow your 2nd person to mention Catrice.
Love the Dior Backstage. I keep returning to it and it always looks great - even after 12+ hours.
Over 40, I normally wear only tinted moisturizers or bb creams, but I will wear the Revlon Candid. It does last for a long day.
Estee lauder Hydra rescue is my big favorite!
The Dior Airflash has been my favorite for a long time. I actually had to give the Le Mer away because to me it smelled like paint. Great recommendations as always.

Wow that was a huge review!! Thanks. I have some of these and I want to try some, but the La Mer is $200 here in Australia 😳 !!! So no I don’t think so. 😊

One of my favorite things to do now that it’s summer is to mix a small dot of my Double Wear in Porcelain to the Nars tinted moisturizer in Terra Neuve. Alternatively I might add just a little bit of my essay letter radiant concealer to the tension moisturizer if I feel I need a little more coverage.
Este Lauder futurist is one of my favorites.
I wanted to love it but this foundation just sits on top of my skin.
Dior Backstage is my Holy Grail ❣️❣️ I have 2 bottles as well❣️ Thank you for the great video!
Elf flawless finish foundation is super good too
Try using the EL with the Hourglass primer. It makes it last a lot longer, and helps control the shine.
Glad that you like the Pat McGrath, everything you said about it is what I like about it.
I just started using the Dior Forever foundation and I love it for the same reasons you love the Dior Backstage. I think I’m going to have to try the backstage next!
Thank you. Unfortunately I cannot use any of these
They either have alcohol or other skin sensitizing extract/ ingredients. I always go through the ingredients at Paula's choice. Would love to see an updated or summer foundation or concealers?!?
I think I need to try one of those Dior foundations you've mentioned. Which one would you recommend for dry/mature skin?
Thank yooooooooooo, 💞💗💞💗💞
I like either one and have heard dry skinned people use and love both - they both work well with various moisturizers and primers. 🥰
Great suggestions.I love the It Cosmetics foundation on my dry skin. It lasts my full work day when I use a primer, a little powder and a setting spray. I love to use the Urban Decay Ultra Glow All Nighter with it. It helps it lasts and adds a little more glow.

I like the RCMA.. It can go a little more full but I guess it depends on how much you use but it really does leave beautiful finish.
thanks to emily noel, i tried the Tarte Skin Treat. I love it! It's awesome for summer for combo/oily skin types 😊
I love the Chanel CC Cream!
This is my favorite video, thank you so much.
Dear Thank you!I have some questions for u!Is dior backstage good for very dry skin in winter?I got the dior airflash in the shade 201 !There mua suggested this!Its little light and pink for me! And very matte dry on my dry skin!How to fix it?which color to go for in hourglass ambient powders if I am nc 25 skin like u?I know it's a lot but love your content and u!You looks so kind and helpful too!
Loved and enjoyed this. Very helpful. Thank you 🙏
I love the work you put in your videos, thank you! ♥️
Thank you Louise! 😘
Thank you so much Stephanie, its like you know what I'm looking for 😘😘😘👍
You might enjoy the Cinema Secrets the Ultimate Foundation! It's a cream and it has some serious lasting power. If I apply a sheer layer, it looks really pretty on the skin. You can also layer it for fuller coverage. I do find that I need to blot during the day, but once I do, I can easily wear it for another 3-5 hours. I might have to retry the the Dior backstage and double wear. I loved the finish of the dior and the longevity of dw, but both creased in my smile lines. I recently found a new holy grail primer though, so maybe it'll wear differently this time.
It and Estée Lauder are my faves in this video, but haven’t tried all those on the list!
Thank you for mentioning the It foundation❣️❣️❣️I have it in my collection and completely forgot about it😱I don’t know why because it’s sooo good❣️👍🏼 I use the L’Oréal Infallible to mix into my Korean CC creams to extend their wear time. It works like a dream👌🏻❤️🥰 I want to try some of your other recommendations but I HAVE to get through some of my others before the expire😬😭😉 Love how ALL of these look on you❣️❣️❣️
Isn’t that the truth-I have to get through some of my other foundations, too! I don’t wear foundation very often (I’m disabled from employment due to mobility difficulties, chronic pain, etc.), so I’m not using it up very fast.
I do like the Nude by Nature loose foundation powder. It’s is fantastic. My colour is 2N. It’s another one of those “melts into your skin” foundations. Since I found this one, when I do wear makeup, I use the NbyN.
My daughter bought the Halo Tinted Moisturizer and the lightest one was too dark for her (she has porcelain-coloured skin), so she gave it to me. I absolutely love it! I even wear it at home!
@@pro6703 I feel you on the chronic pain ❤️ Prayers to you💕🙏🏼💕
@@sandybowers5085 Thank you for your sentiments! I have a debilitating spine and neck injury from an assault by a violent Special Education student eleven years ago. I was the SpEd Teacher. There were many reasons why this student severely assaulted me without any provocation from me or other staff or students. This student had very low cognition, but was large, with superior strength. The student had other identified conditions. This student also had a history of assault.
I'm so sorry for your injury and that it disabled you!! Wear your foundations at home for fun!! I do it. Also, I do not force myself to finish something b4 I purchase another. Life, for me now, is too short for that.
Also, thanks for that powder foundation suggestion. Love powder foundation, always listening for recommendations. 👍❣
Thank you for such an amazingly eloquent video about these foundations. So gorgeous. I almost laughed at the foundation that came after La Mer because it did not hold a candle to it. Ugh, 135 USD? Probably worth it though lol. You have been so detailed I have no questions, but I do strive to be just like you 🤗💖
Thank you! 😘
Great video! Now that I’ve gone with La Mer, I think I’m done with trying foundations. I don’t wear foundation everyday so for the price, I think this is it for me! One day I may try the Dior Backstage, I may have to be completely out of the La Mer though to try it.
I wanted to get that one but I was hesitating at the price of $120. Then I saw that since i last looked, they have actually raised the price up to $135. As it it wasn’t expensive enough already!! I about fell over. It went from being a wavering no to be a HECK no. Lol
Hi. How did you find the colour range? I have combo skin that leans oily in summer
I like Jane Iredale bb cream glow time. Wish you would compare it to other bb cream.
Your so 😍 pretty.. I'm so glad you made this video!
Thank you so much! 💗
Have you tried the By Terry Serum Foundation? If you love the Pat Magrath you would love that one.. and your skin feels and looks good when you take it off .. it’s well worth the price .. because it last a long time and I wear mine a lot and wear different ones also .. would love to see a video on you reviewing it and it last on me in Mobile in summer and feels light and airy ..
Stephanie what lippie are you using in the short video showing the Dior foundation, loved the color!!!
@Diana Canales I guess it´s one of the Wayne Goss ones but not sure it´s a beautiful like watermelon color to my screen at least!
The beige? It’s this one: bit.ly/2TyQbhR shade 123 💖
@stephanie can you please do a tutorial on the Bobbi brown? I want to like it and have it but find it so hard to use.
Steph I’m with ya on the hydra rescue . Never been my fav and to be honest I regret buying it. However, might be ok in winter. I live in same climate as you 🥵.
Τhank you always for your lovely videos and the time you take to make them. I may have commented on the same issue on another of your videos.
My personal experience with the Dior backstage has unfortunately not been as positive as yours. I found it to be a completely flat matte finish that took away any lustre of my skin and made me look older. I am combination and do not like luminous foundations but on me the Dior backstage looked as I said the wrong type of matte.
Its always a good idea to request a sample before purchasing a foundation since people seem to have very different experiences with the same products
I have given up on cream stuff in summer, but I’m gonna keep your recommendations for fall🤓😻 in summer, I use Ultrasun facial spf on dry cleansed skin (best ever!!) and when it has sunk in just brush on some laura geller balance and glow baked foundation, thats it❣️
I am dying to try the Revlon Candid foundation and concealer, but right now I feel like yet another foundation in my normally pale shade isn't practical since I am beginning to accumulate a tan and will eventually need to purchase some products in darker shades. I've heard nothing but good reviews and opinions of the Candid.
The Estée Lauder futuristic just ends up being so oily. I’m 58 and it’s just too much. The double wear works best for me. I’m in deep East Texas with tons of humidity.
Thanks Deidre I'm 56 and can't decide on all these great foundations. Your comment helped me decide!😄
I'd like to see some cruelty free foundations with good coverage
I wish influencers would only review cruelty free makeup.
The it cosmetics is cruelty free. I only know because I was thinking about getting it because it’s on sale right now. I think rawbeauty Kristi or whatever her name is does exclusively cruelty free reviews.
PLEASE PLEASE DO A FULL COVERAGE LIGHT COMPLEXION FOUNDATION FOR OLDER DRY SKIN . Nothing matte . Prefer drugstore brand
EVERYTHING turns orange on me .I have very cool undertones
All of these are good for any skin type and there are several non-matte and drugstore options in this video. 👍🏼
Lovin ItAll, have you already tried La Girl green foundation corrector? I have to add a couple drops to most of my foundations. Most things turn orange on me , too!
@@realness2b OH ! Thank you so much ! I will try this .
@@realness2b good suggestion!
What primer works best with the Dior backstage? ♥️
Unfortunately any foundation that contains sunscreen is an automatic no for me since they are usually a chemical sunscreen or a mix of chemical & mineral (full spectrum) My skin just doesn't tolerate chemical spfs as I found out after trial & error & a visit to my dermatologist :( Personally I'd prefer if they didn't put sunscreen in foundation since as you mentioned no one wears that much foundation to have proper protection & most of us already wear a sunscreen as part of our daily skincare routine. Chemical spfs are irritating to many people with rosacea & other skin sensitivities so it makes more sense to leave it out unless the product is an actual tinted sunscreen/moisturizer hybrid. Since I can only use mineral sunscreen, my usual go-to foundation is still It Cosmetics CC Cream since it has a mineral based spf too but I would like to find something better.
I agree about sunscreens. I have tried ALL of them and my skin just cannot!!!
Physicians Formula Healthy Skin foundation is the BOMB for skin-like coverage and what I wore at my wedding.
It was a lovely foundation! I wish they hadn't discontinued it!
@@StephanieMarie oh, no, they didn’t!!! I’m crying 😢
Skin like foundation list w/o Mac Face and Body? It’s the most skin like foundation.
What do you think of the reformulation??
Have you tried MAC Face and Body lately? I’ve really been enjoying it after rediscovering it. I’m surprised how much I love it after thinking it was weird, because it grips after rubbing it in. Feel like it’s the only one that doesn’t look like anything, not exaggerating.
Yes. I wish it controlled my shine more. Aside from that, it's nice. :)
@@StephanieMarie you alluded to the essence being a dupe for a high end, but now I'm searching through more videos and can't find it again. Which is it!? I need to knoowww 😖🙇♀️🙂
What I mentioned was that I don't like LA MER that the price isn't the reason that I don't love this brand it's because like more natural brands I use Beauty Counter and I love it! It was a mistake how you interpreted my comment I am not at all perfect I have many many struggles with my skin I also use Prescribed Retin A 0.25% Tretinoin have acne Scars and dark spots so no I am very much on the un perfect side.
My bad. I’m sorry for snapping 😬 It was the wording/punctuation plus it’s been one of those weeks where I’ve had a lot of criticizing comments for random small things so I’m like WHAT is happening!? I’ll delete. Again! So sorry!
Wonder what the sephora skin like would mix with the double wear?
I'm in between getting the Sephora best skin; Sephora matte moisturizer or the IT byebye foundation matte moisturizer?? I have mature normal to oily skin oily t-zone. I don't like heavy foundation.
I have never had the L’Oréal Infallible look like a skin like finish on my skin :/. I’ve tried several different application methods.
Everything works differently for everyone…different climates, textures, skin care and skin chemistry. I use a thin thin layer and only layer where needed 👍🏼
Same with me. So many people like and I don’t. It looks terrible on me.
same 😩 i've never understood the hype
Try mixing it with another foundation and you may see the difference and longevity
I bought it as well and it really accentuated surface dehydration I wasnt even aware I had (oily skin)
thanks for vid pretty lady. be safe.
Hello Stephanie. Is the Door Backstage similar to the MAC Face and Body foundation?
It is not :)
Stephanie, on your foundation shades list you have that you use light medium 10 on the pat mcgrath but on this video you say you use light medium 13. Did u changed it?
Is dior water based?
Wich of these work on top of mineral sunscreen?
I use them all with my regular ones and they work just fine. 🥰
@@StephanieMarie Thanks! I find that my sunscreen (Elta MD UV Elements) makes my thicker, matte foundations look like concrete. The Huda luminous matte looks unsightly, for example. A moisturizing primer on top of my sunscreen helps with that, but then it significantly shortens the wear time.
I wanted to love this Estée Lauder foundation sooooooo bad. I did SOOOOO much research and chose this and I feel like it just brings out all of my flaws and pores. So sad.
Love your videos.
You do mention if a foundation has a fragrance which is very helpful. However, it would be even more helpful if you mentioned whether a foundation contains alcohol. The Dior foundation lists alcohol as the third ingredient. Applying Alcohol on the skin is drying, irritating and can create free radicals.
I totally meant to do that and realized I mentioned it on some halfway through filming but didn’t at the beginning, so I edited it out 🤦🏼♀️ because I wasn’t consistent. While it can be, because you apply it over sunscreen and skincare and if you apply it inconsistently, it may not be an issue. Totally wasn’t thorough with that on this video. My bad.
I wanted to watch that estee double wear video you said would be linked below but it’s not
Ihope if you can try MIZON Snail Repair Intensive BB Cream
thought id let you know because I've seen it a lot of times on your channel, the magic foundation is being replaced by the new beautiful skin foundation which is sad cus i loved magic foundation
