I really appreciate the 12 hour wear test. I typically wear my makeup for 12 hours. Put it on around 7am (before working at 8), come home, make dinner for my family around 6, take my makeup off after dinner when my mom duties are done. Bless the people who have shorter days, but I seriously appreciate the 12 hour test!
I agree! When I was commuting into the office, I would need my foundation to last 12 hours. I'd leave in the morning at 9 am, get off work at 6 pm, and if I went out after work, I could get home at 9 pm or later.
It's so crazy because I've been criticized SEVERAL times for testing a Foundation for 12 hours (and Foundation claims to last over 12 hrs) every time I respond I remind them that WE ARE BUSY WOMEN.. specially those who are busy working. People just don't get it. 😴 They think majority of the world live in a 8 hr world lol. Nothing would EVER get done, hell sometimes i feel like there is not enough time in the day as it is. LOL.
@@TaraLynnbeauty I desperately need long wear tests because as a teacher, I’m putting on my makeup at 5:30am, and it’s on my face until at least 6-8pm. I have combo skin (oily in my t zone) so this is definitely a no for me. The reviews I’ve seen where people like this are folks who only wore it for a little while. It reminds me of the Laura Mercier Lumiere foundation. I love her Airbrush foundation and sheer it out with a sponge if need be. Thanks for saving me $$$$!!!
As a Flight Attendant I need to see these long hour reviews, I truly appreciate your thoroughness and honesty! Thank you for keeping in mind those of us with very long days 💕 I can’t wait to hear your final thoughts
Thank you so much❤ People just don't get it. I've been critiqued over 12 hour wear tests so many times. It's like people think people live lives in a 8 hour window. LOL. We're busy ladies.. 8 hours in for me sometimes is only halfway lol. Thank you for watching and I'm glad it was helpful. It has potential, but it is too glowy with that magic Cream that's for sure😁❤
Ur welcome ☺️ I love to support however you prefer to create your videos, us busy ladies showed love in the comment section because it truly helps us to narrow down future purchases! Thank you for recording every little detail even if it’s time consuming. 💕
I put on my make up at 6 am and take it off around 9 pm. So these people that think you can’t expect foundation for 12+ hrs don’t have a full time job and drive home to pick up their kids at daycare, cook dinner, help with homework, put them to bed and then finally, blessedly take a shower and remove my make up. Lol. Thank you for your long wear reviews. If it’s not Tara approved I won’t buy it.
@@margaritatorres3407 Boy do I remember those days. Now my kids are older, adults in college, and I work from home my schedule is different, but even though I didn't have a job, when my kids were grade school age I got up at 6am, Started my day, got kids off to school, helped the hubby with our business, with all my responsibilities the day would fly by before I even could look in the mirror to check my makeup. LOL. By the time your head hits the pillow, it's almost midnight and you are needing to get back up in 6 hours. Lol. I went for years on that schedule. I think people are either clueless or are so privileged they don't understand a 12 hour work day. LOL. I can't decide. But you wouldn't believe how many comments I've received criticizing me for being "unrealistic 12 hour wear test". So I figured in this video I would gently remind them🤣🤣🤣
@@TaraLynnbeauty thank you so much. You’re truly appreciated. I’ve been working from home and I’ve given up on makeup. I’m lucky if I get five hours of rest. Finally going back to in person next week. Staying at home is not easy. I’d much rather go to the office. I commend all those stay at home moms. I’m looking forward to wearing make up after a month of letting myself go. I’m looking forward to seeing a 12 hour review of the new Nars foundation. Not getting it until I see you wear it. Lol. Trying to determine which of the two, Nars or CT, can keep keep up with crazy schedule. ❤️❤️❤️
I actually really appreciate your 12hr reviews! I see patients 8-12hrs most days do it is helpful to see how things look throughout the day! With you saying that it looks oily, I am imagining how it would look on me with my oily skin 😱. I don’t think Charlotte has the best undertones, so I have already been skeptical about this one. It might be one that I ultimately pass on. Thanks for all the work you did to give us a review!! 😘😘😘
I've had people say it's "dumb" LOL. I used to work 12 hour shifts as a CNA. I think people forget people work 12 hours or just have crazy busy days🤣 I don't think this is the one for you. Being that your oily. It may be a good mixer, but not alone. Lol. Her undertones are AWFUL. So strong and so different than other brands. I struggled with trying to find my shade in the Flawless but the only shade I didn't try was the 8W. LOL.
@@DanielleNicoleMakeup I'm definitely curious to hear your thoughts on this❤ I will definitely be watching your video too see how it performs on your skin😁❤
@@TaraLynnbeauty thanks, love. The finish and undertones definitely seem like they wouldn’t work for me. I’m curious to see how it ends up working for you with different primers and such. I always appreciate how real you are in your reviews!
Good morning Tara!! Happy Sunday!! I love this foundation because I’m so dry. I picked it up on Thursday when it dropped at Nordstrom’s (and helped GLAMGIRLCHELSEA in store;) I love the way it looks. I use my Bobbi Brown Enriched face base under it. I’ve also used the Milk Hydro Grip under it. I work 12 hr shifts usually. I will say if you use a gripping primer. Press it into the skin with a sponge, set it with setting spray. Conceal and powder. Spray again. Then do your other powder products. It will stay all day. Cream products seem to slide a little more with it. Powder blushes and bronzers work better with it. It’s a beautiful foundation and it does always even with powder come through more dewy. I suggest, I little more of a matte powder to set with. Because later the dew will come through. When applying just use a little and build slowly. Less is a little better with it. If you build to much it can get a little creasy and thick looking. So far, using it the last few days. That’s what I’ve experienced and has worked for me so far☺️hope this helps. Love you💋and Amazing review❤️❤️❤️
Thanks for all the tips and tricks. I know this has potential but I was lookin a HOT MESS last night. Lol. I am excited to tweak it and work with it so this is really helpful. Thanks my dear❤❤❤
I have dry skin as well, and I don't even have to powder it even tho it is glowy, but on me not "sticky" glowy, if you know what I mean.. No trasfer either. I only tried it two times so far, but it looks promising! And yeah, I used the CT magic cream under!
I can’t wait for mine to arrive! I love the way it looks on your skin! I personally love to shine, like I want people to see my skin glowing from a mile away. I put a lot of work into my skin in the last year, and I want everyone to see it. This is why I don’t wear any kind of full coverage foundations (plus they also look terrible on me). I love Charlotte’s lighter coverage foundation, but it isn’t enough coverage for my problem area (AKA: my chin). This sounds like the foundation that I have been searching far and wide for. I am so dry that I don’t have any issues with foundation breaking up because of oil. My nose is the only area that has any oil and it takes about 12 hours to even show any breaking up if it even does break apart. I can’t even use setting powder because I am already so dry.
I know if you love a glow this will be right up your alley. You may have to tweak it and less is more with this one. But I think you'll absolutely LOVE IT❤❤❤❤❤
@@TaraLynnbeauty I just put this on my face and I absolutely love it! It’s so weird though, I didn’t get the shine like you did. I used a Moda face brush, it resembles those Artist (or however you spell it🤣) brushes. I was a little worried because Mica is really high up the ingredient list, but it looks so good on me. Now I get to see how it actually wears. Time always tells the whole story with a foundation! Thank you for your thorough reviews and long wear tests. I appreciate them because I end up having my makeup on for a minimum of twelve hours on my work days. So far, so good!
I have it on 1/2 my face with freshly moisturized skin and 1/2 that didn’t have moisturizer applied since I got out of shower hours earlier. The moisturizer side definitely is more “glowy.” I’ll have to see how it wears over all. Great review!
Love all your reviews and especially the 12 hour and daylight check-ins! Most of us are going to wear our foundation for 8-12 hours, so seeing how it lasts throughout the day is very helpful. It is unlikely I will pick up as glowy/dewy is not a look I prefer even on my normal skin. I don’t mind my skin glowing but not my foundation. Thanks for sharing your experience with your usual frankness! 😘😘😘
That's how I feel. And as my skin has gotten more glowy. I have to be careful wearing a super glowy foundation because it's WAY too much Glow. And that's how this one was. I am hoping I can tweak it because it has potential. The magic Cream isn't advised, even though she has it pictured and pared with it on her website. Lol. Only recommend that combo for really dry skin😁❤
@@TaraLynnbeauty Yep it is easy to overdo it with the glow. It’s a fine line between dewy and shiny and greasy🤣 The magic cream is lovely but with the hydration and glow of the foundation, probably not a good combination. Hope you’re able to find a combination that gives you the results you like.
I love light wonder but it’s tacky and have issues blending my blush and bronzer unless I set cheek and forehead areas with powder. This seems similar in that characteristic. Great honest no BS review! Thank you. And PS: 12 hr checkin is perfect. Like someone said below, we may be working 8 hours but with commute, kid drop offs n pickups, and other chores, I have my make up on for 12 hours most days of the week so it’s very helpful.
Thank you so much. I can't believe how many times I've gotten that comment when I do a 12 hr wear test. They think people live in a 8 hour window🤯 Thank you for watching and I'm hoping I can make this work. It has potential 🤞🤞🤞
@@TheLauren2229 I agree. That Valentino is STUNNING. yet still giving the skin that Radiant look without been dewy. It's long lasting. Totally agree. Great suggestion. 👏👏
i definitely appreciate 12hr wear test for foundations ! let’s be real, many viewers watching beauty channels have jobs and any typical working day will have official hours of say 9am-6pm. that’s already 9 hours - in the workplace alone - at least. factor in an hour’s commute both ways and that’s 11 hrs out of the house. factor in the occasional overtime or after work drinks and that adds another hour or 2. foundations that claim 12, 16, 24 hr wear target precisely these people who work outside of their homes where it’s more realistic to assume a wearer to have a very full day from the get go.
YES👏👏👏👏👏 THIS🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌 I worked as a CNA for a few years and my days would sometimes be 14- 16 hrs with makeup on. These 8 hour wear tests just don't cut it on those who work outside the home. Couldn't agree more. I've been critiqued so many times over 12 hr wear tests and I think to myself "do you think people really live their lives in a 8 hour window?" You're not living in the real world. I want to live in your world. 😝😝😝😝
I feel like the people that don’t want 12 hr wear tests are people that just wear makeup to go out. The rest of us who wear make up to work appreciate your 12 hour wear tests as I want to look good at 8am when it goes on right through my day till i go out in the evening, with minimal touch ups! Please continue to do 12 hr wear tests, it is really appreciated! ❤️
I was just about to go to Sephora to pick it up, but I think I’ll wait for your fell review. I do however love the glowy look. I’m 54 (TODAY), and love a dewy look on my skin. Looking forward to hearing from you again. 🥰
If you love a glowy look you may really enjoy this one. She's extra glowy😁❤ But I'm excited to wear it with different Primers too see if I can get a better result. 🤞🤞
I'm really conflicted about this Foundation. I usually wear my foundation for at least 12 hours, so this review was extremely interesting and informative. Thank you so so much! I look forward to Future reviews on it after you've worn it a few more times. Please let us know! The rest if your makeup looked absolutely beautiful!❤❤
Hey I ordered and waiting for it to arrive I hope the tones are good as I ordered 6n but see so many different ones ugh !! If your close to my color you can try it if like and see how you like it .
I appreciate when you test foundation for 12 hours. I finish my makeup at 6am. I work from 7am to 5:30pm. So I’m looking for foundations that last at least 12 hours to get me through the day. Thank you for your honesty and I will be looking forward to the update if you find a way to make this last. I know you had issues with it but I still think you look gorgeous.
Thank you so much Renee. I've been critiqued for that so many times , I just don't understand it. It's like they think everyone lives in a 8 hour bubble. 🤷♀️ Maybe they do. But hell some days I feel there is not enough time in the day to get the stuff I need to get done. 🤪 haha. I'm glad the review was helpful, I know this foundation has potential, I just need to find a way to tweak it🤞🤞🤞🤞
Tara, you do the best foundation reviews on RUclips! You are so extremely thorough, I really appreciate how you do full day wear tests, you show us how it’s looking in different light, you get up and close to your face. I was very excited to try this new foundation but you’re right it did break apart and looked very heavy. Now, I have extremely dry skin so I’m conflicted about it. I tried the her other foundation and the undertones were so odd. I have to have a true neutral undertone. I think I’m going to hold off and wait for your final review! Amazing first impression video Tara Lynn! 🥰
Ahhh, thank you so much LaLa❤❤ her undertones are very strong no doubt. If you have really dry skin, you may enjoy this one. If you can get a sample at Sephora, I would try it. I think those who have really dry skin will really enjoy this one😁❤
Tara I wish more ladies would make that list that you made, it sure is very helpful. That foundation is so pretty, ugh I don’t need another one but I want this one for sure.🥰
I'm so glad you found it helpful ❤ Before I started my channel, I would watch reviews to help me buy not knowing what the person likes etc and it didn't help me make good buying decisions so when I started, I knew that was important. I do wish others would do it, it's so helpful🙏❤ Thank you for watching, really appreciate your support and hope the review was helpful ❤
@@TaraLynnbeauty yes your reviews are always helpful, think I’ll wait till you give us an update if you were able to make it work, like you said maybe it was that magic cream that made it act that way. Did you ever get that Lisa Eldridge to work, I had the same problems as you on my chin area getting cakey and flakey.🥰
Well I love the way the foundation looks on your skin. I will try to get a sample at Sephora before I purchase it . Thanks for your honest review. Please let us know when you try the foundation with other primers and powders. I would love another review. ❤
I appreciate the 12 hour wear test. When I’m working in the office I put my make up on around 6 am and commuting by 6.30 and often doint get home until around 7pm. I want my makeup to look nice at 4 or 5pm meetings. I also appreciate that you play with different techniques to get it to work, when I’m paying that much for a product I, using it till its
Thank you for featuring this new foundation. When you showed the close-ups in daylight, I was blown away by your beautiful skin. Some of the foundation’s shine may be attributable to mica (in the ingredient list). I will wait for your update before considering this foundation. Thanks again!
Ahhh thank you so much ❤❤ I'm finding ways to work with it, but it's still pretty shiny. It eats up Powder. Lol. But thank you so much for watching, really appreciate your sweet comment and support💋❤
Fabulous review Tara, thank you 💕 the check in was so helpful too! I’ve been playing around with this foundation for a few days now and had a similar experience (albeit I have combo skin). I find with a mattifying primer it lasts longer but really emphasises texture and looks heavier. With a more moisturised base it applies and looks much better but then doesn’t wear as well 😬 I want to love it but I can’t right now. I thought it would be more like a tinted moisturiser with amped up coverage to be honest, as opposed to sitting almost like the Airbrush Flawless does (so thick!!) 💕
It is SO THICK. She's a thick bitch😝 I am glad you shared your experience because that's what I am concerned about with using a Mattifying Primer, I was wondering if it would apply as smooth and evenly. Someone in the comments said they used the Tatcha Silk canvas and it applied and wore beautifully so I'm definitely going to try that. I think I has potential, I just have to figure out how to get it to work🤪 Fingers 🤞 But thank you for sharing your experience, I appreciate it so much 😁
THANK YOU as always for your honest opinion! The dewy, shiny comments were not mentioned by other you tubers, so I'm so happy I watched your version. Thank you....I most likely will not be trying the new foundation as I prefer a matte look.
Thank you for the 12 hour check-in, the days am in work i have my foundation on for about 12-14 hours, am interested to see how it works when you try it different ways, great review Tara
This was a great review!!! I also used a little powder before I put on the rest of my makeup because of the texture. I wore it for about 8 hours and loved how dewy it looked when I got home from work. I used my regular moisturizer which is by glow recipe and then a thin serum primer by neutrogena. Loved your review and thoughts!
I just picked up this foundation today at Sephora. I can’t wait to play. It looks very glow-y on you. I hope you’re able to make it work for you. I do hope I get some longevity out of it!
Thanks Tara I always see your foundations review because your so honest & your wear time & X days you have tested the product … it’s great. I have dry skin Excema prone so I’m all sbiuy skin products & SPF. For me my favorite now is IT cosmetics SPF 50 tinted CC cream & I need Dewey for my skin so I’m excited to try this out cause for me anything matte is simply a NO go. I will have to buy this cause it’s screaming my name. Best
Aww. I bought it and I love it!!! Literally chefs kiss 💋. We usually have the same taste in foundation so keep trying it out maybe the magic cream was too much of a barrier.
I wear mine for 12+ hours and good foundations like ELDW and Dior can handle this no problems! Thanks for your 12 hour test, saved me some coin as I was going to purchase!
I got mine yesterday and loved it. But I didn’t use a hydrating primer I used Tatcha Silk primer. Worked great! Oh and I also set it with the Charlotte setting spray!
Good to know. I truly think the Hydrating Primer with this one is a no go for me. Lol. I thought it would be OK because it was a CT product, but ya no. Lol. I'm excited to try it with other products and see how it performs. I also have a natural glow to my skin so using a super glowy product on top of my skin can sometimes be too much. I'm really hoping I find a way to make it work because I love that smooth look. It's so beautiful ❤❤ Thanks for the tip😁
Yes. I'm hoping the gripping Primer will give it something to grip too and stay on the skin🤞🤞 and I still can't believe how many people have criticized me for doing 12 hour wear tests. 😳 when I worked as a CNA. I would wear my makeup for 16 hours sometimes. Lol. Between commuting and crap it's a LONG DAY. It's like they think everyone in a 8 hour makeup bubble. Lol. 🤪 If only some days i feel like there is never enough time in the day to get it all done. LOL. I'm glad the review was helpful, thank you so much for watching❤❤
Wow this was not what I was expecting. All good! Appreciate your honesty! 😊 Mine arrives Tuesday to review. I can't wait to see how my oily dehydrated acne prone skin takes it 😁
I used the Bobbi brown vitamin enriched face base and also her powder over my t-zone and it lasted through my 13 hour shift (with mask 😷 wearing also).
So wonderful to see green/olive hues in this foundation (neutral). I have olive toned light skin and really difficult to find a foundation. This might be worth a try (maybe 5 N for me).
Yes, absolutely. My daughter has a strong olive Undertone and she struggles so much finding a foundation that caters to that. When she was visiting for Christmas, she wanted to try the Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Foundation and LOVED the Undertone in 7N. She is now using it as her Foundation when wearing makeup. She loves it. ❤ (But she's 18 lol. That Airbrush is a little too drying for me lol😁)
Hey Tara, I love you and I love the 12 hr wear test, I need my foundation and makeup to last 12 hrs, I have almost an hour commute each way and a 9 hr work day, then if I need to do anything after work I am not going home to touch up first!! Thank you for always being honest with your reviews!!
I'm so glad it was helpful. I'm still trying to work with it seeing if I can adjust it😁❤ I appreciate your support so much, thank you so much for watching Amy. Hope you have a WONDERFUL week❤❤❤
I was so curious about how this highly anticipated foundation would perform, so I came to you Tara 😊 Btw your skin is glowing ✨ I may pick it up as a winter foundation since the extra hydration is needed during the freezing cold Canadian winters 🇨🇦❤
My foundation goes on at 7 am and I'm out the door by 730. By the time I remove it and start my night routine, it's 10pm, maybe 9pm on a good day. Yes, people do wear foundation for 12+ hours. Of course I don't eclectic it to last, but I do appreciate the 12 hr test. Thank you!
Thank you❤❤❤ I can't believe how many snarky comments I've received for testing it for 12 hours. It's like people get upset when you bash on their favorite Foundation and just reach for anything to come back at you with. One time someone got so snarky about my review, (she was downright nasty. Picked everything I said to shreds) I told her I hope the stocks she owns in the company pays well for her😝😝😝😝 that shut her up. Lol
I ordered mine and cannot wait to try it thank you so much for doing this review so fast. I hope it works for me since I have an oily T zone but I always use powder and mattifying primer before foundation hopefully that way it works for me. When you where in your car the foundation looked so beautiful on you
After seeing this now I'm on the fence about trying it, too much radiance can just emphasize texture too much 🤔 I look forward to seeing your thoughts after you play with it a bit more, always STUNNING Tara 😍
Love your reviews Tara, I definetely need a make up that lasts 12 hours! So, thank you for your 12 hrs wear test! I love how this make up looks on you, your skin looks healthy so, based on what I see on you, I am ordering it now! Hahahaha 😬. Thanks and blessings! - I`ll won`t try it with any hydrating primer 😉…
Some who are oily like that Glow and others don't want a glow, so it all depends on what you like. But this one is definitely glowy.. Lol.🤪 I'm glad the review was helpful, thank you so much for watching❤❤❤
I don't think 12 hours is unreasonable, I often have my "face on" for 10 to 12 hours and I don't work (disabled). I've been holding back from buying this one. I really, really appreciate your no bs, total honesty and that you're going to try different moisturisers/primers before making a solid decision. Apart from the confusing shade range (undertones and depth are all over the place), the ridiculous claims given on the packaging is, at best, pure fantasy. Excellent review Tara 👏 Love ya 😘 💗
Thank you so much Chrissy. I appreciate your support. It's definitely a tricky one. All the reviews I've seen this morning people seem to really love it. I hope I find a way to make it work and have it look like it did on other people. I'm not giving up , but the magic Cream was definitely a NO GO. lol Thanks again my beautiful friend, always appreciate your support❤❤
Great review beautiful Tara 💕 I was very interested to hear your thoughts. I think I’m going to go with the Shiseido synchro skin radiant foundation instead…. 💕
YAY🙌🙌🙌 Her shades are tricky so I'm so glad you found the right shade and loving it. I think this foundation has great potential fingers crossed I can find a way to make it work🤞🤞🤞
Great Video as always Love that thumbnail tho Beyond Beautiful you are Ur Makeup always on Point Those BreAthtaking eyes love Em GoodmorninG Happy Sunday Too Have a Terrific Week ahead STAY BLESS N BE SAFE ALWAYS😇
Initially it was beautiful on although it didn’t look bad in the latter portion of the video. I definitely think a hydrating foundation with a rich hydrating moisturizer would only work if you were super dry. I will say before you applied the foundation you were extremely shiny so in all fairness the wear test was already compromised. It’s awesome that your doing this because a lot of people have the same products and would do the same. If you like the glow I would just really set right down the middle of the face with a puff not a brush to really make it last. Like you that’s where most peoples foundation gets a questionable. You may still get shiny but it will definitely delay it further. Great detailed review thank you.
Hi, I appreciate you doing a 12 hour wear test. I see a few of people agree. I have dry skin. I was thinking this might be for me. I could definitely see where the foundation broke down around your forehead for sure. I’m going to wait for update before I make up my mind. I really like what I’m seeing from Chanel.
I bought the new Chanel and I'm excited to try the new Nars. Nars has AMAZING foundations and I'm so excited👏👏 I'll definitely update on this foundation and everyone seems to really enjoy it. But man it was a hot mess on me. Lol. 🤷♀️🤪
Great review! :) As a combo skin gal I've purchased this with the intention of mixing it in with my Estee Lauder Double Wear! Its a bit too glowy on its own for my liking
I was on the fence with this one ( my country doesn’t allow returns once you have opened the product, which makes it extremely difficult right now when also make up is not tried on in store). I was cheering for it but I think my combo ( very-dry/ slightly oily in the nose and chain) skin could look quite greasy with it ( I need my foundation to last 10-12 hours due to work reasons, and now I need foundations that can stand those hours under a mask). Thanks for your review Tara!! I have the feeling you saved me 40€!!!
I used to be oily when I was younger…and as I’ve gotten older and using prescription tretinion….it’s now normal to dry. I also live in Vegas..a really dry climate. I prefer a soft matte foundation and will add oil or creams on dry flare up days…so was curious about this. I’ll hold off to see what other dryer skin reviewers say as well. Thanks Tara!
Placed an order for pickup from Nordstrom just yesterday for this & 2 of her new Lunar New Year lipsticks. Still haven’t had the chance to use this - but I’m excited to try because I’ve been in need of a new foundation! Thanks for the review - this looks really pretty on u
@@TaraLynnbeauty I definitely see how it broke apart, so I hope u can tweak your routine a little to make it last better because it really did look so nice on ur skin @ first so I agree w u I think it’s worth it to try 😊
I don’t understand how anyone could be critical of your reviews?!? You are so thorough and honest……. I have a love/hate relationship with CT. Love her powder and pillow talk lipstick, blush and eyeshadow quad. However, most of her lipsticks and neutral eye shadows pull orange on me. I have not had much luck with her foundation and concealer. Therefore I’ll wait to hear more from you on this. I have really dry skin so the fact that it seems hydrating/dewy is promising. But I am concerned that you feel it is finicky or have to really work with it to make it look skin like. Thanks for your review!!!!!
Some people said the Lisa Eldridge was finnicky. This also seems so. It doesn't seem like this will be for me because I'm already oily and powder is a must for me. Look forward to hearing your future thoughts on this one.
I have been waiting for your review on this. You are my closest RUclips beauty twin. Our needs and preferences are similar. And we both have the dark hair and bright eyes. If only we had the same skin tone all my guess work would be gone 😂
YAY🙌🙌 I am so glad we're twinsies 😁😁 That is so helpful ❤ The guess work for shades can be so dang tricky lol. 😝 thank you for watching, I appreciate your support so much ❤
Hey Tara (my first EVER comment). Love your videos and very well detailed explanations. I am 47 and Asian Indian. My colour match was an 8w. But 7N in Airbrush Foundation (not a fan) I used to have combo skin its now normal with the odd oil slick patch. I was hoping to purchase but after seeing your review I am not so sure. I have enlarged pores on my forehead due to teenage acne. I have forehead envy (yours is like dolphin skin lol). Thankyou so much and you are a beaut honey xxxx much love from the UK
Ahhhh, I'm honored that you chose my channel and my video as your first comment ever🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌 THANK YOU SO MUCH❤❤❤ I'm so grateful for your support, and Asian Indian, what a beautiful combo❤❤ I understand the acne stuff. I have that on my lower cheek area. This foundation is Smoothing so it may go pretty over that area. However with you being in the UK and unable to return, I think this may be one to skip. It's pretty glowy. If you love dewy Foundation it will be your fav. Lol. But if not. I would skip this😁❤ but I'm Wearing it again today. Used a Concealer to spot Conceal and used about a half a pump all over the face. I'll see how it wears. Fingers crossed. Lol. But it's definitely a tricky one😁
thank you so much for your honest review. you know how much i appreciate your reviews and value your honesty, and i know that you’re always going to keep it real. i have been dyinggg to try CT’s products and i will try this foundation at some point. i’m not into full coverage whatsoever because my skin has hated anytime i’ve worn any full coverage foundation. i loveeee you with my entire heart and i’m sending you a ton of hugs and please stay safe with all of the snow. 💞💓💞
I really love it. I used to use the CT Magic Cream but I’ve Been using the INN Beauty 10+10 More-Sturizer and everything I use has been looking amazing. I do use a makeup gripper (elf power grip primer) before this and the Hollywood Filter and I do set w powder and use the CT airbrush spray. It works and looks amazing for a long time.
Hey Tara, I really don’t use foundation. But I do use to go to special occasions. I like more BB & CC creams. I thought that this was going to be a good foundation. I can’t wait to see what you think of this later. Thanks Tara.
Update: mine arrived today. It IS thick in consistency, kind of glue like. I found it a bit different to apply. And it did not like the texture of my skin around my mouth and chin. *looked bad up close However, I was impressed with the slight glow it gave my dry, mature skin. It did not feel hydrating though. Going to give it one more chance tomorrow. If it's a no-go I hope I can send it back. Older comment: Anxiously awaiting my N2 to arrive. Having dry skin I am hopeful this will wear well with minimal product. I have seen where too much product becomes an issue with this one. *this is my first CT foundation If it doesn't work out I hope I can return it for something else. Thank You for your review. ~Happy New Year~ 🌿🕊️💕🌍
I do not think I have ever disliked foundation more than this one. It left me with red, scaly skin. For 2 days i had try to do anything under the sun to deal with the rash and any product i used to moisturize was burning. I also had the same experiencr on how it wore on me.. It was a hot mess after 5 hours- patchy, cakey mess.. Hated this on me to the point I could not wait to return it. Great amf thorough review!!
Amazing review! I do not own it myself but every time I saw it on others (online) I just didn’t like it how it looks on skin. It just looks thick and oily, which is strange as people seemed to rate it well. I am somehow released you have confirmed my suspicions about it.
I agree. When I saw people wearing it on Instagram it definitely looked dewy, but I was expecting to control some of the shine with a little powder. This one the powder doesn't last long. It will soak it up. Lol. I'm hoping a less Moisturizing base will work better, fingers crossed🤞 Thanks for watching. Really appreciate your support 🙏🙏
@@jaynehammond2782 Oh no😬 That's kind of how i felt yesterday. It reminded me of a super hilarious comment I got when I first started RUclips and didn't wear any powder so my skin reflected off the lights like crazy lol. It hurt my feelings then (sadly you get used to shitty comments and laugh them off) but her comment is the best one and i laugh so hard. She said "Why does your face look like you stuck your head in a crisco can?" HAHAHA. THAT'S HOW I felt wearing this foundation yesterday and I thought about that comment all day and it made me laugh so hard🤪🤪🤪🤣🤣🤣
@@TaraLynnbeauty I'm gutted, I had high hopes for this. I may try with a mattifying primer 🤞. I also found that it emphasised my pores and had to use Pat Mcgrath under eye powder for it to look anything. I bet you have to have thick skin as people can be so hurtful. I love your videos BTW, we can always rely on your honesty 🙌 xx
You should try a gripping primer and a primer that isn't so hydrating. Try it without the magic cream and see if you like it . I've worn my foundation for 12 hours so I really appreciate your 12 check ins. Someone will always have something to complain about 😁
This foundation does seem tempting only due to it being Wisconsin winter right now by me and I get some funky combo skin that I call 'flaky nose disease '(lol). Otherwise Springish/Summer/Fallish I'm usually an oily skin mess and I work 9+ hours M-F and need my face to last!! In the end, I don't think I'd could use this foundation for an all-year rounder so it wouldn't be worth the $$ for me. Always informative as always Tara, thank you!
I think I pass. I absolutely felt in love the the Lisa Eldridge foundation. It’s my go to. I even like it better than the Tom Ford Shade and illuminate. I just don’t like heavy foundations. I do love the magic cream though. Thank you for the review 😃
This is the exact opposite of the Lisa Eldridge Foundation. It's definitely thicker and a little too heavy. I am hoping to try and find a way to thin it out a little. The LE Foundation is a little drying for me it makes my wrinkles look a little dry, but I LOVE to mix it. I have been mixing it with the Ilia Skin Tint and it's stunning. LE has amazing undertones and I wanted to find a way to make that foundation work. It's beautiful and mixed with a little hydration, it's perfect. I'm glad the review was helpful, thank you so much for watching❤
I think the issue might be the Magic Cream. I used it a few times before putting on foundation and my foundation ended up looking like that into 10 hours. I used Estee Lauder primer the next time and it didn't do that. When u were in the vehicle it looked So pretty!
Great review and I have very very dry skin that is currently not doing well and it’s peeling, flaking, irritated and uncomfortable so I’m looking forward to it. Shades are weird because I ordered 3N thinking the model matched my skin tone but then watching reviews it seemed I should have bought 1N so I did and we shall see. Ordered the 3N through spacenk so I can’t return it st all due to their policy 😩 so hoping I can return it to her website directly if I don’t like 1N
Ya, the undertones are definitely different and not the easiest to match. I struggled with that on the Airbrush Flawless Foundation launch. The website told me 9W, but I'm glad I listened and got the 8W😁❤ hope you find the right shade because this Foundation seems perfect for your skin type🙌
I am surprised to hear people say it's runny. That's not even close to the consistency. Lol. It's definitely thick. I would say a runny Foundation is the Pat McGrath Foundation it will run down your hand this won't move. Doesn't budge with any gravity lol.
Thank you for this review Tara! I have such a hard time finding shade matches and I was wondering what shade you would use if you matched your foundation to your skin on your face? I know you use self tanner and exfoliate so naturally your face is lighter. I know a strange question, but I haven’t found ANYONE that has my skin tone and undertone before except you. Thank you for being one of the only YT channels with true medium skin. Love from New Jersey!! Xoxo 😘
I just couldn't decide between this foundation or the new Chanel one. What decided it for me was the wack shade finder on the Sephora site. It had me between 3c to 6c so I went with the new Chanel. Sure looks good on you tho Tara 😉💓
@@pinksparkle258 I just bought the new Chanel. I ordered a lighter shade (normally I wear BD50. but they didn't have it so I ordered BD40, I'm hoping I can make it work🤞) so excited to try it🙌🙌
I appreciate your doing two videos. Maybe with slightly less glowy skincare underneath, because did think that your face was really, really shiny before you applied the foundation. I am always keen to see your foundation reviews, because I don't know how, but we are always the same shade :).
i have really dry skin and i used it with the rare beauty pore diffusing primer and i really liked it! i also used charlotte’s setting spray and i think that helped balance out the foundation since it is so hydrating.
I really appreciate the 12 hour wear test. I typically wear my makeup for 12 hours. Put it on around 7am (before working at 8), come home, make dinner for my family around 6, take my makeup off after dinner when my mom duties are done. Bless the people who have shorter days, but I seriously appreciate the 12 hour test!
Same!
I agree! When I was commuting into the office, I would need my foundation to last 12 hours. I'd leave in the morning at 9 am, get off work at 6 pm, and if I went out after work, I could get home at 9 pm or later.
It's so crazy because I've been criticized SEVERAL times for testing a Foundation for 12 hours (and Foundation claims to last over 12 hrs) every time I respond I remind them that WE ARE BUSY WOMEN.. specially those who are busy working. People just don't get it. 😴 They think majority of the world live in a 8 hr world lol. Nothing would EVER get done, hell sometimes i feel like there is not enough time in the day as it is. LOL.
Yessss! Exactly all of this!
@@TaraLynnbeauty I desperately need long wear tests because as a teacher, I’m putting on my makeup at 5:30am, and it’s on my face until at least 6-8pm. I have combo skin (oily in my t zone) so this is definitely a no for me. The reviews I’ve seen where people like this are folks who only wore it for a little while. It reminds me of the Laura Mercier Lumiere foundation. I love her Airbrush foundation and sheer it out with a sponge if need be. Thanks for saving me $$$$!!!
As a Flight Attendant I need to see these long hour reviews, I truly appreciate your thoroughness and honesty! Thank you for keeping in mind those of us with very long days 💕 I can’t wait to hear your final thoughts
Thank you so much❤ People just don't get it. I've been critiqued over 12 hour wear tests so many times. It's like people think people live lives in a 8 hour window. LOL. We're busy ladies.. 8 hours in for me sometimes is only halfway lol. Thank you for watching and I'm glad it was helpful. It has potential, but it is too glowy with that magic Cream that's for sure😁❤
Ur welcome ☺️ I love to support however you prefer to create your videos, us busy ladies showed love in the comment section because it truly helps us to narrow down future purchases! Thank you for recording every little detail even if it’s time consuming. 💕
I put on my make up at 6 am and take it off around 9 pm. So these people that think you can’t expect foundation for 12+ hrs don’t have a full time job and drive home to pick up their kids at daycare, cook dinner, help with homework, put them to bed and then finally, blessedly take a shower and remove my make up. Lol. Thank you for your long wear reviews. If it’s not Tara approved I won’t buy it.
@@margaritatorres3407 Boy do I remember those days. Now my kids are older, adults in college, and I work from home my schedule is different, but even though I didn't have a job, when my kids were grade school age I got up at 6am, Started my day, got kids off to school, helped the hubby with our business, with all my responsibilities the day would fly by before I even could look in the mirror to check my makeup. LOL. By the time your head hits the pillow, it's almost midnight and you are needing to get back up in 6 hours. Lol. I went for years on that schedule. I think people are either clueless or are so privileged they don't understand a 12 hour work day. LOL. I can't decide. But you wouldn't believe how many comments I've received criticizing me for being "unrealistic 12 hour wear test". So I figured in this video I would gently remind them🤣🤣🤣
@@TaraLynnbeauty thank you so much. You’re truly appreciated. I’ve been working from home and I’ve given up on makeup. I’m lucky if I get five hours of rest. Finally going back to in person next week. Staying at home is not easy. I’d much rather go to the office. I commend all those stay at home moms. I’m looking forward to wearing make up after a month of letting myself go. I’m looking forward to seeing a 12 hour review of the new Nars foundation. Not getting it until I see you wear it. Lol. Trying to determine which of the two, Nars or CT, can keep keep up with crazy schedule. ❤️❤️❤️
I actually really appreciate your 12hr reviews! I see patients 8-12hrs most days do it is helpful to see how things look throughout the day!
With you saying that it looks oily, I am imagining how it would look on me with my oily skin 😱. I don’t think Charlotte has the best undertones, so I have already been skeptical about this one. It might be one that I ultimately pass on.
Thanks for all the work you did to give us a review!! 😘😘😘
I have oily dehydrated skin and am also wondering. Mine arrives Tuesday, can't wait to see!
@@DanielleNicoleMakeup I hope it works out!!
I've had people say it's "dumb" LOL. I used to work 12 hour shifts as a CNA. I think people forget people work 12 hours or just have crazy busy days🤣 I don't think this is the one for you. Being that your oily. It may be a good mixer, but not alone. Lol. Her undertones are AWFUL. So strong and so different than other brands. I struggled with trying to find my shade in the Flawless but the only shade I didn't try was the 8W. LOL.
@@DanielleNicoleMakeup I'm definitely curious to hear your thoughts on this❤ I will definitely be watching your video too see how it performs on your skin😁❤
@@TaraLynnbeauty thanks, love. The finish and undertones definitely seem like they wouldn’t work for me. I’m curious to see how it ends up working for you with different primers and such. I always appreciate how real you are in your reviews!
Good morning Tara!! Happy Sunday!! I love this foundation because I’m so dry. I picked it up on Thursday when it dropped at Nordstrom’s (and helped GLAMGIRLCHELSEA in store;) I love the way it looks. I use my Bobbi Brown Enriched face base under it. I’ve also used the Milk Hydro Grip under it. I work 12 hr shifts usually. I will say if you use a gripping primer. Press it into the skin with a sponge, set it with setting spray. Conceal and powder. Spray again. Then do your other powder products. It will stay all day. Cream products seem to slide a little more with it. Powder blushes and bronzers work better with it. It’s a beautiful foundation and it does always even with powder come through more dewy. I suggest, I little more of a matte powder to set with. Because later the dew will come through. When applying just use a little and build slowly. Less is a little better with it. If you build to much it can get a little creasy and thick looking.
So far, using it the last few days. That’s what I’ve experienced and has worked for me so far☺️hope this helps. Love you💋and Amazing review❤️❤️❤️
Thanks for all the tips and tricks. I know this has potential but I was lookin a HOT MESS last night. Lol. I am excited to tweak it and work with it so this is really helpful. Thanks my dear❤❤❤
I have dry skin as well, and I don't even have to powder it even tho it is glowy, but on me not "sticky" glowy, if you know what I mean.. No trasfer either. I only tried it two times so far, but it looks promising! And yeah, I used the CT magic cream under!
I can’t wait for mine to arrive! I love the way it looks on your skin! I personally love to shine, like I want people to see my skin glowing from a mile away. I put a lot of work into my skin in the last year, and I want everyone to see it. This is why I don’t wear any kind of full coverage foundations (plus they also look terrible on me). I love Charlotte’s lighter coverage foundation, but it isn’t enough coverage for my problem area (AKA: my chin). This sounds like the foundation that I have been searching far and wide for. I am so dry that I don’t have any issues with foundation breaking up because of oil. My nose is the only area that has any oil and it takes about 12 hours to even show any breaking up if it even does break apart. I can’t even use setting powder because I am already so dry.
I know if you love a glow this will be right up your alley. You may have to tweak it and less is more with this one. But I think you'll absolutely LOVE IT❤❤❤❤❤
@@TaraLynnbeauty I just put this on my face and I absolutely love it! It’s so weird though, I didn’t get the shine like you did. I used a Moda face brush, it resembles those Artist (or however you spell it🤣) brushes. I was a little worried because Mica is really high up the ingredient list, but it looks so good on me. Now I get to see how it actually wears. Time always tells the whole story with a foundation! Thank you for your thorough reviews and long wear tests. I appreciate them because I end up having my makeup on for a minimum of twelve hours on my work days. So far, so good!
I have it on 1/2 my face with freshly moisturized skin and 1/2 that didn’t have moisturizer applied since I got out of shower hours earlier. The moisturizer side definitely is more “glowy.” I’ll have to see how it wears over all. Great review!
Love all your reviews and especially the 12 hour and daylight check-ins! Most of us are going to wear our foundation for 8-12 hours, so seeing how it lasts throughout the day is very helpful. It is unlikely I will pick up as glowy/dewy is not a look I prefer even on my normal skin. I don’t mind my skin glowing but not my foundation. Thanks for sharing your experience with your usual frankness! 😘😘😘
That's how I feel. And as my skin has gotten more glowy. I have to be careful wearing a super glowy foundation because it's WAY too much Glow. And that's how this one was. I am hoping I can tweak it because it has potential. The magic Cream isn't advised, even though she has it pictured and pared with it on her website. Lol. Only recommend that combo for really dry skin😁❤
@@TaraLynnbeauty Yep it is easy to overdo it with the glow. It’s a fine line between dewy and shiny and greasy🤣 The magic cream is lovely but with the hydration and glow of the foundation, probably not a good combination. Hope you’re able to find a combination that gives you the results you like.
I don’t like glows/dewy either! I’m more of a matte girl! 😊
I love light wonder but it’s tacky and have issues blending my blush and bronzer unless I set cheek and forehead areas with powder. This seems similar in that characteristic. Great honest no BS review! Thank you. And PS: 12 hr checkin is perfect. Like someone said below, we may be working 8 hours but with commute, kid drop offs n pickups, and other chores, I have my make up on for 12 hours most days of the week so it’s very helpful.
Thank you so much. I can't believe how many times I've gotten that comment when I do a 12 hr wear test. They think people live in a 8 hour window🤯 Thank you for watching and I'm hoping I can make this work. It has potential 🤞🤞🤞
Try the Valentino Foundation. I love it and it lasts all day ❤️
@@TheLauren2229 I agree. That Valentino is STUNNING. yet still giving the skin that Radiant look without been dewy. It's long lasting. Totally agree. Great suggestion. 👏👏
i definitely appreciate 12hr wear test for foundations ! let’s be real, many viewers watching beauty channels have jobs and any typical working day will have official hours of say 9am-6pm. that’s already 9 hours - in the workplace alone - at least. factor in an hour’s commute both ways and that’s 11 hrs out of the house. factor in the occasional overtime or after work drinks and that adds another hour or 2. foundations that claim 12, 16, 24 hr wear target precisely these people who work outside of their homes where it’s more realistic to assume a wearer to have a very full day from the get go.
YES👏👏👏👏👏 THIS🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌 I worked as a CNA for a few years and my days would sometimes be 14- 16 hrs with makeup on. These 8 hour wear tests just don't cut it on those who work outside the home. Couldn't agree more. I've been critiqued so many times over 12 hr wear tests and I think to myself "do you think people really live their lives in a 8 hour window?" You're not living in the real world. I want to live in your world. 😝😝😝😝
I was totally thinking the same about commuting and after work happy hour! I still want to look cute at the end of the day lol
The 5 hour close up check in was great! It really gave me a good idea if the foundation would work for me. You saved me $40. Great review, Thanks!!!
I feel like the people that don’t want 12 hr wear tests are people that just wear makeup to go out. The rest of us who wear make up to work appreciate your 12 hour wear tests as I want to look good at 8am when it goes on right through my day till i go out in the evening, with minimal touch ups! Please continue to do 12 hr wear tests, it is really appreciated! ❤️
Thad is absolutely 💯 facts❤❤ Thank you for watching, I appreciate your support so much ❤❤
I was just about to go to Sephora to pick it up, but I think I’ll wait for your fell review. I do however love the glowy look. I’m 54 (TODAY), and love a dewy look on my skin. Looking forward to hearing from you again. 🥰
If you love a glowy look you may really enjoy this one. She's extra glowy😁❤ But I'm excited to wear it with different Primers too see if I can get a better result. 🤞🤞
I'm 50 and I'm afraid it may settle into fine lines and wrinkles under the eyes
I'm really conflicted about this Foundation. I usually wear my foundation for at least 12 hours, so this review was extremely interesting and informative. Thank you so so much! I look forward to Future reviews on it after you've worn it a few more times. Please let us know!
The rest if your makeup looked absolutely beautiful!❤❤
Hey I ordered and waiting for it to arrive I hope the tones are good as I ordered 6n but see so many different ones ugh !! If your close to my color you can try it if like and see how you like it .
@@julsz528 I'm light cool. Are we similar?
I appreciate when you test foundation for 12 hours. I finish my makeup at 6am. I work from 7am to 5:30pm. So I’m looking for foundations that last at least 12 hours to get me through the day. Thank you for your honesty and I will be looking forward to the update if you find a way to make this last. I know you had issues with it but I still think you look gorgeous.
Thank you so much Renee. I've been critiqued for that so many times , I just don't understand it. It's like they think everyone lives in a 8 hour bubble. 🤷♀️ Maybe they do. But hell some days I feel there is not enough time in the day to get the stuff I need to get done. 🤪 haha. I'm glad the review was helpful, I know this foundation has potential, I just need to find a way to tweak it🤞🤞🤞🤞
Tara, you do the best foundation reviews on RUclips! You are so extremely thorough, I really appreciate how you do full day wear tests, you show us how it’s looking in different light, you get up and close to your face. I was very excited to try this new foundation but you’re right it did break apart and looked very heavy. Now, I have extremely dry skin so I’m conflicted about it. I tried the her other foundation and the undertones were so odd. I have to have a true neutral undertone. I think I’m going to hold off and wait for your final review! Amazing first impression video Tara Lynn! 🥰
Ahhh, thank you so much LaLa❤❤ her undertones are very strong no doubt. If you have really dry skin, you may enjoy this one. If you can get a sample at Sephora, I would try it. I think those who have really dry skin will really enjoy this one😁❤
@@TaraLynnbeauty As always thank you so much for your feedback 🥰 You’re right I should get a sample first.
Tara I wish more ladies would make that list that you made, it sure is very helpful. That foundation is so pretty, ugh I don’t need another one but I want this one for sure.🥰
I'm so glad you found it helpful ❤ Before I started my channel, I would watch reviews to help me buy not knowing what the person likes etc and it didn't help me make good buying decisions so when I started, I knew that was important. I do wish others would do it, it's so helpful🙏❤ Thank you for watching, really appreciate your support and hope the review was helpful ❤
@@TaraLynnbeauty yes your reviews are always helpful, think I’ll wait till you give us an update if you were able to make it work, like you said maybe it was that magic cream that made it act that way. Did you ever get that Lisa Eldridge to work, I had the same problems as you on my chin area getting cakey and flakey.🥰
Well I love the way the foundation looks on your skin. I will try to get a sample at Sephora before I purchase it . Thanks for your honest review. Please let us know when you try the foundation with other primers and powders. I would love another review. ❤
Try wearing it with shiseido blurring skin primer? 🤔 the magic cream is way to hydrating with this foundation 🤓
Lmao @ “she’s a thick bitch!” Thought you were talking about me, girl 💃🏾
I appreciate the 12 hour wear test. When I’m working in the office I put my make up on around 6 am and commuting by 6.30 and often doint get home until around 7pm. I want my makeup to look nice at 4 or 5pm meetings. I also appreciate that you play with different techniques to get it to work, when I’m paying that much for a product I, using it till its
Thank you for featuring this new foundation. When you showed the close-ups in daylight, I was blown away by your beautiful skin. Some of the foundation’s shine may be attributable to mica (in the ingredient list). I will wait for your update before considering this foundation. Thanks again!
Ahhh thank you so much ❤❤ I'm finding ways to work with it, but it's still pretty shiny. It eats up Powder. Lol. But thank you so much for watching, really appreciate your sweet comment and support💋❤
Fabulous review Tara, thank you 💕 the check in was so helpful too! I’ve been playing around with this foundation for a few days now and had a similar experience (albeit I have combo skin). I find with a mattifying primer it lasts longer but really emphasises texture and looks heavier. With a more moisturised base it applies and looks much better but then doesn’t wear as well 😬 I want to love it but I can’t right now. I thought it would be more like a tinted moisturiser with amped up coverage to be honest, as opposed to sitting almost like the Airbrush Flawless does (so thick!!) 💕
It is SO THICK. She's a thick bitch😝 I am glad you shared your experience because that's what I am concerned about with using a Mattifying Primer, I was wondering if it would apply as smooth and evenly. Someone in the comments said they used the Tatcha Silk canvas and it applied and wore beautifully so I'm definitely going to try that. I think I has potential, I just have to figure out how to get it to work🤪 Fingers 🤞 But thank you for sharing your experience, I appreciate it so much 😁
THANK YOU as always for your honest opinion! The dewy, shiny comments were not mentioned by other you tubers, so I'm so happy I watched your version. Thank you....I most likely will not be trying the new foundation as I prefer a matte look.
Light wonder is her best foundation so far. I’m happy to continue using the same. Thank you for sharing your thoughts about this new foundation
Thank you for the 12 hour check-in, the days am in work i have my foundation on for about 12-14 hours, am interested to see how it works when you try it different ways, great review Tara
This was a great review!!! I also used a little powder before I put on the rest of my makeup because of the texture. I wore it for about 8 hours and loved how dewy it looked when I got home from work. I used my regular moisturizer which is by glow recipe and then a thin serum primer by neutrogena. Loved your review and thoughts!
I just picked up this foundation today at Sephora. I can’t wait to play. It looks very glow-y on you. I hope you’re able to make it work for you. I do hope I get some longevity out of it!
Thanks Tara I always see your foundations review because your so honest & your wear time & X days you have tested the product … it’s great.
I have dry skin Excema prone so I’m all sbiuy skin products & SPF. For me my favorite now is IT cosmetics SPF 50 tinted CC cream & I need Dewey for my skin so I’m excited to try this out cause for me anything matte is simply a NO go.
I will have to buy this cause it’s screaming my name. Best
Aww. I bought it and I love it!!! Literally chefs kiss 💋. We usually have the same taste in foundation so keep trying it out maybe the magic cream was too much of a barrier.
I’m a 12 hour girl 🙋♀️ I love your foundation reviews. Looking forward to the follow up. 🤗
I wear mine for 12+ hours and good foundations like ELDW and Dior can handle this no problems! Thanks for your 12 hour test, saved me some coin as I was going to purchase!
Thank you for the honest review! I'm glad I held off on it. Looking forward to your update when you've had a chance to try it a bit more!
Thank you So Much for sharing your skin details and foundation preferences. That’s so helpful!
I got mine yesterday and loved it. But I didn’t use a hydrating primer I used Tatcha Silk primer. Worked great! Oh and I also set it with the Charlotte setting spray!
Good to know. I truly think the Hydrating Primer with this one is a no go for me. Lol. I thought it would be OK because it was a CT product, but ya no. Lol. I'm excited to try it with other products and see how it performs. I also have a natural glow to my skin so using a super glowy product on top of my skin can sometimes be too much. I'm really hoping I find a way to make it work because I love that smooth look. It's so beautiful ❤❤ Thanks for the tip😁
Thanks for the 12 he wear test looking forward to seeing what you think testing it out more
It looks really hydrating so I would try a pore filling primer or a gripping primer. I work double shifts so I’m grateful for your reviews! 👍😀
Yes. I'm hoping the gripping Primer will give it something to grip too and stay on the skin🤞🤞 and I still can't believe how many people have criticized me for doing 12 hour wear tests. 😳 when I worked as a CNA. I would wear my makeup for 16 hours sometimes. Lol. Between commuting and crap it's a LONG DAY. It's like they think everyone in a 8 hour makeup bubble. Lol. 🤪 If only some days i feel like there is never enough time in the day to get it all done. LOL. I'm glad the review was helpful, thank you so much for watching❤❤
Wow this was not what I was expecting. All good! Appreciate your honesty! 😊 Mine arrives Tuesday to review. I can't wait to see how my oily dehydrated acne prone skin takes it 😁
I'm so excited to hear your thoughts on this🙌🙌❤❤
I used the Bobbi brown vitamin enriched face base and also her powder over my t-zone and it lasted through my 13 hour shift (with mask 😷 wearing also).
That's AMAZING 👏👏👏 Thank you so much for sharing your experience ❤❤❤
So wonderful to see green/olive hues in this foundation (neutral). I have olive toned light skin and really difficult to find a foundation. This might be worth a try (maybe 5 N for me).
Yes, absolutely. My daughter has a strong olive Undertone and she struggles so much finding a foundation that caters to that. When she was visiting for Christmas, she wanted to try the Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Foundation and LOVED the Undertone in 7N. She is now using it as her Foundation when wearing makeup. She loves it. ❤ (But she's 18 lol. That Airbrush is a little too drying for me lol😁)
Hey Tara, I love you and I love the 12 hr wear test, I need my foundation and makeup to last 12 hrs, I have almost an hour commute each way and a 9 hr work day, then if I need to do anything after work I am not going home to touch up first!! Thank you for always being honest with your reviews!!
I'm so glad it was helpful. I'm still trying to work with it seeing if I can adjust it😁❤ I appreciate your support so much, thank you so much for watching Amy. Hope you have a WONDERFUL week❤❤❤
I was so curious about how this highly anticipated foundation would perform, so I came to you Tara 😊 Btw your skin is glowing ✨
I may pick it up as a winter foundation since the extra hydration is needed during the freezing cold Canadian winters 🇨🇦❤
My foundation goes on at 7 am and I'm out the door by 730. By the time I remove it and start my night routine, it's 10pm, maybe 9pm on a good day. Yes, people do wear foundation for 12+ hours. Of course I don't eclectic it to last, but I do appreciate the 12 hr test. Thank you!
I wear my foundation for 14 hours so I really appreciate your wear tests 🥰
Thank you❤❤❤ I can't believe how many snarky comments I've received for testing it for 12 hours. It's like people get upset when you bash on their favorite Foundation and just reach for anything to come back at you with. One time someone got so snarky about my review, (she was downright nasty. Picked everything I said to shreds) I told her I hope the stocks she owns in the company pays well for her😝😝😝😝 that shut her up. Lol
I ordered mine and cannot wait to try it thank you so much for doing this review so fast. I hope it works for me since I have an oily T zone but I always use powder and mattifying primer before foundation hopefully that way it works for me. When you where in your car the foundation looked so beautiful on you
Thanks for your honest and thorough review. Even though it’s just a first impression… can’t wait for your follow up review! Have a wonderful week!
You have the most beautiful eye color! I love watching your videos - you have great content!
After seeing this now I'm on the fence about trying it, too much radiance can just emphasize texture too much 🤔 I look forward to seeing your thoughts after you play with it a bit more, always STUNNING Tara 😍
Love your reviews Tara, I definetely need a make up that lasts 12 hours! So, thank you for your 12 hrs wear test! I love how this make up looks on you, your skin looks healthy so, based on what I see on you, I am ordering it now! Hahahaha 😬. Thanks and blessings! - I`ll won`t try it with any hydrating primer 😉…
Hi girl, thank you for this honest review and the day light close up it really helps! I have oily skin so I think this is a no go for me. Xoxo💕
Some who are oily like that Glow and others don't want a glow, so it all depends on what you like. But this one is definitely glowy.. Lol.🤪 I'm glad the review was helpful, thank you so much for watching❤❤❤
Thanks for doing the shade comparisons! Super helpful and much appreciated 😊
I don't think 12 hours is unreasonable, I often have my "face on" for 10 to 12 hours and I don't work (disabled).
I've been holding back from buying this one. I really, really appreciate your no bs, total honesty and that you're going to try different moisturisers/primers before making a solid decision.
Apart from the confusing shade range (undertones and depth are all over the place), the ridiculous claims given on the packaging is, at best, pure fantasy.
Excellent review Tara 👏
Love ya 😘 💗
Thank you so much Chrissy. I appreciate your support. It's definitely a tricky one. All the reviews I've seen this morning people seem to really love it. I hope I find a way to make it work and have it look like it did on other people. I'm not giving up , but the magic Cream was definitely a NO GO. lol Thanks again my beautiful friend, always appreciate your support❤❤

Mmmwah 🥰
Great review beautiful Tara 💕 I was very interested to hear your thoughts. I think I’m going to go with the Shiseido synchro skin radiant foundation instead…. 💕
Hey Tara! Always a pleasure to see you 💖
Thank you for your thorough reviews! It looks beautiful on you 🥰
Great review as always! I managed to actually get the right shade for me. I really like this foundation
YAY🙌🙌🙌 Her shades are tricky so I'm so glad you found the right shade and loving it. I think this foundation has great potential fingers crossed I can find a way to make it work🤞🤞🤞
Great Video as always
Love that thumbnail tho
Beyond Beautiful you are

STAY BLESS N BE SAFE ALWAYS😇
Initially it was beautiful on although it didn’t look bad in the latter portion of the video. I definitely think a hydrating foundation with a rich hydrating moisturizer would only work if you were super dry. I will say before you applied the foundation you were extremely shiny so in all fairness the wear test was already compromised. It’s awesome that your doing this because a lot of people have the same products and would do the same. If you like the glow I would just really set right down the middle of the face with a puff not a brush to really make it last. Like you that’s where most peoples foundation gets a questionable. You may still get shiny but it will definitely delay it further. Great detailed review thank you.
Thank you for this review. I love your channel. Have a blessed day!
Hi, I appreciate you doing a 12 hour wear test. I see a few of people agree. I have dry skin. I was thinking this might be for me. I could definitely see where the foundation broke down around your forehead for sure. I’m going to wait for update before I make up my mind. I really like what I’m seeing from Chanel.
I bought the new Chanel and I'm excited to try the new Nars. Nars has AMAZING foundations and I'm so excited👏👏 I'll definitely update on this foundation and everyone seems to really enjoy it. But man it was a hot mess on me. Lol. 🤷♀️🤪
Great review Tara. Very interested to hear your longer term thoughts.❤️
Great review! :)
As a combo skin gal I've purchased this with the intention of mixing it in with my Estee Lauder Double Wear! Its a bit too glowy on its own for my liking
Oh that's a great idea. I think this will make for a great mixer🙌❤ Thank you for sharing. Such a great idea😁
Thank you for a great review and let me tell you, nobody has any business looking as good as you do in daylight 🤩
Ahhh, you're so sweet❤❤❤ gosh thank you for such a sweet compliment ❤
I was on the fence with this one ( my country doesn’t allow returns once you have opened the product, which makes it extremely difficult right now when also make up is not tried on in store). I was cheering for it but I think my combo ( very-dry/ slightly oily in the nose and chain) skin could look quite greasy with it ( I need my foundation to last 10-12 hours due to work reasons, and now I need foundations that can stand those hours under a mask). Thanks for your review Tara!! I have the feeling you saved me 40€!!!
I used to be oily when I was younger…and as I’ve gotten older and using prescription tretinion….it’s now normal to dry. I also live in Vegas..a really dry climate. I prefer a soft matte foundation and will add oil or creams on dry flare up days…so was curious about this. I’ll hold off to see what other dryer skin reviewers say as well. Thanks Tara!
I just purchased this foundation yesterday. I’ll definitely try it tomorrow 😃 hope I like it 💕 thanks for this review 💕
Best review so far! It’s looks beautiful
Placed an order for pickup from Nordstrom just yesterday for this & 2 of her new Lunar New Year lipsticks. Still haven’t had the chance to use this - but I’m excited to try because I’ve been in need of a new foundation! Thanks for the review - this looks really pretty on u
I'm so excited to hear your thoughts. I hope you love it😁❤ and I hope I can find a way to make it work because it does have great potential 😁❤
@@TaraLynnbeauty I definitely see how it broke apart, so I hope u can tweak your routine a little to make it last better because it really did look so nice on ur skin @ first so I agree w u I think it’s worth it to try 😊
I don’t understand how anyone could be critical of your reviews?!? You are so thorough and honest…….
I have a love/hate relationship with CT. Love her powder and pillow talk lipstick, blush and eyeshadow quad. However, most of her lipsticks and neutral eye shadows pull orange on me. I have not had much luck with her foundation and concealer.
Therefore I’ll wait to hear more from you on this. I have really dry skin so the fact that it seems hydrating/dewy is promising. But I am concerned that you feel it is finicky or have to really work with it to make it look skin like.
Thanks for your review!!!!!
Some people said the Lisa Eldridge was finnicky. This also seems so. It doesn't seem like this will be for me because I'm already oily and powder is a must for me. Look forward to hearing your future thoughts on this one.
I have been waiting for your review on this. You are my closest RUclips beauty twin. Our needs and preferences are similar. And we both have the dark hair and bright eyes. If only we had the same skin tone all my guess work would be gone 😂
YAY🙌🙌 I am so glad we're twinsies 😁😁 That is so helpful ❤ The guess work for shades can be so dang tricky lol. 😝 thank you for watching, I appreciate your support so much ❤
Hey Tara (my first EVER comment). Love your videos and very well detailed explanations. I am 47 and Asian Indian. My colour match was an 8w. But 7N in Airbrush Foundation (not a fan) I used to have combo skin its now normal with the odd oil slick patch. I was hoping to purchase but after seeing your review I am not so sure. I have enlarged pores on my forehead due to teenage acne. I have forehead envy (yours is like dolphin skin lol). Thankyou so much and you are a beaut honey xxxx much love from the UK
Ahhhh, I'm honored that you chose my channel and my video as your first comment ever🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌 THANK YOU SO MUCH❤❤❤ I'm so grateful for your support, and Asian Indian, what a beautiful combo❤❤ I understand the acne stuff. I have that on my lower cheek area. This foundation is Smoothing so it may go pretty over that area. However with you being in the UK and unable to return, I think this may be one to skip. It's pretty glowy. If you love dewy Foundation it will be your fav. Lol. But if not. I would skip this😁❤ but I'm Wearing it again today. Used a Concealer to spot Conceal and used about a half a pump all over the face. I'll see how it wears. Fingers crossed. Lol. But it's definitely a tricky one😁
Honest reviews like yours are the best , thank you 💗👍I order mine yesterday and now I know what to expect
Try spraying on the CT setting spray before AND after you apply the foundation! ❤️
I'll definitely try that. Thank you for that tip😁❤
I love that you cover 12 hours! I purchased this yesterday and I am going to blend it with Estée Lauder because that one is drying on my skin
It looks Gorgeous on you!!!
thank you so much for your honest review. you know how much i appreciate your reviews and value your honesty, and i know that you’re always going to keep it real. i have been dyinggg to try CT’s products and i will try this foundation at some point. i’m not into full coverage whatsoever because my skin has hated anytime i’ve worn any full coverage foundation. i loveeee you with my entire heart and i’m sending you a ton of hugs and please stay safe with all of the snow. 💞💓💞
Thank you so much my sweet friend ❤❤❤ I hope you're having a wonderful start to 2022 and sending you all my love and hugs❤❤
@@TaraLynnbeauty i’m starting out my year going back into surgery at the end of the month. 🥺🥺🥺
Darn, I should have waited until your review haha! I ordered 8N, I’m gonna get 8W. Thanks so much for this video, you look gorgeous as usual!🤗
Thank you! Glad I chose the New Chanel.
I really love it. I used to use the CT Magic Cream but I’ve Been using the INN Beauty 10+10 More-Sturizer and everything I use has been looking amazing. I do use a makeup gripper (elf power grip primer) before this and the Hollywood Filter and I do set w powder and use the CT airbrush spray. It works and looks amazing for a long time.
Hey Tara, I really don’t use foundation. But I do use to go to special occasions. I like more BB & CC creams. I thought that this was going to be a good foundation. I can’t wait to see what you think of this later. Thanks Tara.
Update: mine arrived today. It IS thick in consistency, kind of glue like. I found it a bit different to apply. And it did not like the texture of my skin around my mouth and chin. *looked bad up close
However, I was impressed with the slight glow it gave my dry, mature skin. It did not feel hydrating though.
Going to give it one more chance tomorrow. If it's a no-go I hope I can send it back.
Older comment:
Anxiously awaiting my N2 to arrive.
Having dry skin I am hopeful this will wear well with minimal product. I have seen where too much product becomes an issue with this one.
*this is my first CT foundation
If it doesn't work out I hope I can return it for something else.
Thank You for your review.
~Happy New Year~

I do not think I have ever disliked foundation more than this one. It left me with red, scaly skin. For 2 days i had try to do anything under the sun to deal with the rash and any product i used to moisturize was burning. I also had the same experiencr on how it wore on me.. It was a hot mess after 5 hours- patchy, cakey mess.. Hated this on me to the point I could not wait to return it. Great amf thorough review!!
Amazing review! I do not own it myself but every time I saw it on others (online) I just didn’t like it how it looks on skin. It just looks thick and oily, which is strange as people seemed to rate it well. I am somehow released you have confirmed my suspicions about it.
I agree. When I saw people wearing it on Instagram it definitely looked dewy, but I was expecting to control some of the shine with a little powder. This one the powder doesn't last long. It will soak it up. Lol. I'm hoping a less Moisturizing base will work better, fingers crossed🤞 Thanks for watching. Really appreciate your support 🙏🙏
Mine looked like an oil slick 😬 x
@@jaynehammond2782 Oh no😬 That's kind of how i felt yesterday. It reminded me of a super hilarious comment I got when I first started RUclips and didn't wear any powder so my skin reflected off the lights like crazy lol. It hurt my feelings then (sadly you get used to shitty comments and laugh them off) but her comment is the best one and i laugh so hard. She said "Why does your face look like you stuck your head in a crisco can?" HAHAHA. THAT'S HOW I felt wearing this foundation yesterday and I thought about that comment all day and it made me laugh so hard🤪🤪🤪🤣🤣🤣
@@TaraLynnbeauty I'm gutted, I had high hopes for this. I may try with a mattifying primer 🤞. I also found that it emphasised my pores and had to use Pat Mcgrath under eye powder for it to look anything. I bet you have to have thick skin as people can be so hurtful. I love your videos BTW, we can always rely on your honesty 🙌 xx
You should try a gripping primer and a primer that isn't so hydrating. Try it without the magic cream and see if you like it . I've worn my foundation for 12 hours so I really appreciate your 12 check ins. Someone will always have something to complain about 😁
This foundation does seem tempting only due to it being Wisconsin winter right now by me and I get some funky combo skin that I call 'flaky nose disease '(lol). Otherwise Springish/Summer/Fallish I'm usually an oily skin mess and I work 9+ hours M-F and need my face to last!!
In the end, I don't think I'd could use this foundation for an all-year rounder so it wouldn't be worth the $$ for me.
Always informative as always Tara, thank you!
I think I pass. I absolutely felt in love the the Lisa Eldridge foundation. It’s my go to. I even like it better than the Tom Ford Shade and illuminate. I just don’t like heavy foundations. I do love the magic cream though. Thank you for the review 😃
This is the exact opposite of the Lisa Eldridge Foundation. It's definitely thicker and a little too heavy. I am hoping to try and find a way to thin it out a little. The LE Foundation is a little drying for me it makes my wrinkles look a little dry, but I LOVE to mix it. I have been mixing it with the Ilia Skin Tint and it's stunning. LE has amazing undertones and I wanted to find a way to make that foundation work. It's beautiful and mixed with a little hydration, it's perfect. I'm glad the review was helpful, thank you so much for watching❤
I think the issue might be the Magic Cream. I used it a few times before putting on foundation and my foundation ended up looking like that into 10 hours. I used Estee Lauder primer the next time and it didn't do that. When u were in the vehicle it looked So pretty!
Great review and I have very very dry skin that is currently not doing well and it’s peeling, flaking, irritated and uncomfortable so I’m looking forward to it. Shades are weird because I ordered 3N thinking the model matched my skin tone but then watching reviews it seemed I should have bought 1N so I did and we shall see. Ordered the 3N through spacenk so I can’t return it st all due to their policy 😩 so hoping I can return it to her website directly if I don’t like 1N
Ya, the undertones are definitely different and not the easiest to match. I struggled with that on the Airbrush Flawless Foundation launch. The website told me 9W, but I'm glad I listened and got the 8W😁❤ hope you find the right shade because this Foundation seems perfect for your skin type🙌
I’ve seen a few reviews on this and it’s really interesting some people talk about how thick it is and some people talk about how runny it is.
I am surprised to hear people say it's runny. That's not even close to the consistency. Lol. It's definitely thick. I would say a runny Foundation is the Pat McGrath Foundation it will run down your hand this won't move. Doesn't budge with any gravity lol.
Thank you for another great review. You are so honest and informative which is refreshing.
What have you on your lips? Love all your videos! Thank you!
Thank you for this review Tara! I have such a hard time finding shade matches and I was wondering what shade you would use if you matched your foundation to your skin on your face? I know you use self tanner and exfoliate so naturally your face is lighter. I know a strange question, but I haven’t found ANYONE that has my skin tone and undertone before except you. Thank you for being one of the only YT channels with true medium skin. Love from New Jersey!! Xoxo 😘
I’ve been looking forward to this review!! Please share what you put on your lips!!
Thank you for being so honest..just watched other reviewers and they are all loving it..❤️
I just couldn't decide between this foundation or the new Chanel one. What decided it for me was the wack shade finder on the Sephora site. It had me between 3c to 6c so I went with the new Chanel. Sure looks good on you tho Tara 😉💓
I just purchased the Chanel last night. What do you think about it so far?
@@reneegaskin7060 idk yet I just ordered it last night too. I'm hoping I got the correct shade
@@pinksparkle258 I just bought the new Chanel. I ordered a lighter shade (normally I wear BD50. but they didn't have it so I ordered BD40, I'm hoping I can make it work🤞) so excited to try it🙌🙌
I appreciate your doing two videos. Maybe with slightly less glowy skincare underneath, because did think that your face was really, really shiny before you applied the foundation. I am always keen to see your foundation reviews, because I don't know how, but we are always the same shade :).
Great review Tara. I’m not sure if this one is for me. I love CT
You're Awesome Tara And Good Luck
What’s on your eyes and lips?? Love this look!
i have really dry skin and i used it with the rare beauty pore diffusing primer and i really liked it! i also used charlotte’s setting spray and i think that helped balance out the foundation since it is so hydrating.
I got it and love it so far, Love your reviews 😊 x
