In this video I say the drug store foundations are more geared to an oily skin rather than a healthy glowing skin. I didn't mean that, what I meant to say was that Drugstore foundations normally have a more matte finish which, is better for a oily skin than a more dewy foundation which, is better suited for a Dry skin.
Sorry, I didn't have time to re-edit it and I didn't want people to think I was being mean about oily skin.

Nic. How do I say this so that it comes across as the complement it’s meant to be...I ADORE your authenticity. Your lighting doesn’t blow out your face. You don’t use filters. You ZOOM IN and we get to see it all. This is so rare in the world of photo and video editing. Thank you for always being my source for trustworthy information!

@starlinguk 6 лет назад

I know, right? So many beauty gurus go "let me zoom in" and then, well, they don't.

@Queenofcats36 6 лет назад

YES!!!! I completely agree, it's so awesome to see!

Nic when I saw your bangs I instantly decided that i'm cutting mine today the same way. Not because i'm a crazy stalker follower, but because I love the way it looks.

I've tried a couple of these foundations and many others, but I always always have the same problem with liquid/cream foundations; they seem to separate on my nose from the very beginning when I apply them. Or they just kind of don't stick in some areas, and when I try to apply more on top it just makes it worse, the foundation that's underneath gets wiped away when I put more on top. It's like this even when I've put a primer underneath. Also doesn't matter how I apply it, it's the same with a brush, a sponge and my hands.The only type of foundation that doesn't give me this problem is loose mineral foundation, but I would love to be able to use my liquid ones as well... I have combination skin with an oily nose and dryish cheeks and normal skin elsewhere. Could someone give me any tips perhaps?

@mishmash3968 6 лет назад

pixiwoo please make this a series. It gives us all such great options for our own skin type, and all in one video!

@zaria5785 6 лет назад

Skylark Hi! I am oily on my nose, forehead and chin so I will wash my face with a daily face wash first and focusing on those areas. I use a gentle one by elf cosmetics. That way my liquid foundation goes on evenly. After properly moisturizing my skin, I'll put a pore filling primer on my T zone and a moisturizing primer on my cheeks. After that has set for a minute next I'll go in with my liquid foundation. I'll even top it off with a dusting of loose mineral powder for extra coverage and to set it. I have fine lines so if I go in with 2 layers of liquid foundation it settles into my fine lines. This is for when I want a medium coverage. Also I have discovered the Wet n' Wild brand Cushion Foundation. It's perfect for touching up areas where your foundation has rubbed off like tip of nose or chin. On days I want light coverage I'll use color correcting primer by NYX (pink/Rose) because I'm more yellow and a tinted spf and concealer on my nose and other areas to cover hyperpigmentation/blemish. Hope this helps you out somewhat.

@alexandreacook9436 6 лет назад

Bourjois Healthy mix Serum/Gel is my foundation, only one I've ever rebought (on my 4th or 5th one). If you like the natural look and have dryish skin, this is the foundation to try.

Gemma Jade it is great for oily skin. The satin is great for any skin tone and they just brought it back to the US.

@vivsck 6 лет назад

but is it the same formula? I had one some good years ago and it transferred like crazy - other than that it was a great foundation

I love how you can always find a bright side to literally anything. I’m working on adopting that sort of disposition and you are a big inspiration for me. I know we are just talking foundation here, but it’s the little things we think about that have the biggest effects on overall health. Thanks for the great and informative vid as always! Looking forward to the next one already.

@cherim5717 6 лет назад

Mabelline fit me dewy and smooth version is sooo gorgeous on my dry mature skin. I've tried so many high end foundations and the $6.99 is my absolute favorite.

@dianaguevara7468 6 лет назад

Cheri tislotus I love that one too! Unfortunately if I wear it too often it breaks me out 😭

@cherim5717 6 лет назад

Diana Guevara I also use Physicians Formula Healthy foundation which is simular. It's medium to full but can be sheared out with moisturizer to be a tinted moisturizer and it is beautiful that way. I also love Chanel vitalumiere and I feel it's the same as the Fit Me but Chanel last a bit longer throughout the day.

@norcimorci 6 лет назад

Cheri tislotus the fit me dewy is my favorite too! It also has the best color match of all foundations I've ever tried. My skin is also very dry so that one feels comfortable too. The only minus is that it isn't transfer proof. But dewy foundations rarely are.

@cherim5717 6 лет назад

Nori Lori have you tried Physicians formula healthy foundation? It dries down but still has the glowy look. Also Flower beauty light illusions is dewy but dries down a bit more than the Fit Me. Not quite as flawless as the Fit Me but has mor3 lasting power. I get so many compliments on my skin when I wear the Fit Me. It's a beautiful formula.

@lauren574 6 лет назад

Cheri tislotus I don’t know what happened in the uk we had the original fit me over here for a while then it disappeared I really liked that foundation , now we only have the matte and poreless one :(

@MultiDonna7 6 лет назад

GREAT video!! What I appreciate so much about you is that you are using no filter!! I will never understand why RU-vidrs that are showing makeup application use filters to blur their skin because then we really can't see how the make up looks on the skin!! Thank you for being REAL!!! xo

@fletcher4 6 лет назад

I'm 48ish, dryish skin with lots 'o pigment and my go-to drugstore foundations are 1. Revlon Colorstay (dry combo) - and it's a true medium to full coverage but it can feel heavy but it looks great. I also use 2. Milani conceal and perfect foundation and it's very similar to the Revlon but feels lighter. Color choice on the Milani was small and I use the lightest shade.

@emmalcm 6 лет назад

I have an oily t zone and that maybelline matte and poreless was awful on me-it was seperating and sliding off my face after a couple of hours even trying it with different primers and powders it didn't last at all. I love colorstay it stays on so well through long work days when set.

@annika_hew 4 года назад

I relate to u, what foundation do u use now ?

@rositainglesita 6 лет назад

I love Revlon colourstay, I use the combination to dry and I find it stays on really well throughout the day, and people always tell me how fresh and flawless my skin looks when I'm wearing it! X

@silentscreams1988 6 лет назад

I wear that and I have oily skin, I love it

@sofie4172 6 лет назад

I have that one and it is great! It feels really lightweight and blends right in

@lizamoskovskaya5905 6 лет назад

love this one: goes on skin beautifully even if it's really dry and flaky. Stays on pretty long time (at least in comparison with bobby brown stick foundation). Btw, I don't know why (maybe it's something in my skincare, or I need to buy a new bottle) but recently it has started to get patchy in t-zone.

@pollydolly9723 6 лет назад

@joettaxoxo 6 лет назад

I’m going to try the maybelline matte mousse! I have tried the fit me. In America it comes in countless shade and in glass jars. Thank you for the video Nic! Drugstore makeup has definitely come a long way within the last decade.

@newchicgal 6 лет назад

Appreciate your realistic review with bright lights, close shot but not overly bright lighting that is not possible in real life. Many RU-vid creates a review that looks like sooooo much effort has been put into creating that look plus the filter to make even the worse product looks great and with so much foundation that I know in real life, if I am standing before them, their makeup will look so heavy like wearing a mask, with all imperfections emphasized by the heavy makeup. Plus most reviewers are in their twenties, how bad can they look when they are so young :) I love your natural and real review with helpful information and your authentic opinion. Thank you!

@vidlevjidle2994 6 лет назад

The Revlon one is great but it is the one product I actually get rid of after some 6-9 months even if I don't go through it. Once it's not fresh it dries funny on the skin and makes any lines more visible. I have dry skin and use the one for dry skin.

@adelinacourt2596 6 лет назад

Vidle v jidle Yes! Had exactly the same experience with it!

@AaronW-ww4ds 6 лет назад

Vidle v jidle get a pump for it and shake it because the ingredients do separate in the bottle and if you don't use a primer and moisturiser extremely well then it will sink into fine lines I used to buy it and never had that problem and the dry , normal and oil ones are all drying anyway because it's quite a thick formula and the thicker the formula the dry it'll be so it'll show every single imperfection from pores to fine lines and wrinkles

@SweetMintPie555 6 лет назад

as someone with dry skin it’s been my favourite foundation i’ve used over my mac and chanel choices but i’ve had the same experience! good to know it wasn’t just in my imagination haha.

@carolinesmith4020 6 лет назад

My daughter and I both had the same, she had the oily one and I had the normal.

@daniellewride8644 6 лет назад

Omg, I thought I was going crazy, I have the exact same experience with Revlon Colorstay, it starts off looking amazing on my skin, it's almost a dupe for Estee Lauder Double Wear but after quite a lot of usage it makes my skin look really cakey and fine lines look terrible! How weird, there must be something about the formula that reacts badly.

@sophy_lophy 6 лет назад

I've struggled with hella oily skin for as long as I can remember, but in the last 18 months it has settled down and is now more normal-dry, and throughout it all Maybelline dream satin liquid has done me proud! I freaking love this foundation! I have quite an uneven skin tone that's prone to red patches, and this foundation sorts that all out for me, it's high coverage but feels so lightweight on the skin, and lasts really well. I literally cannot praise this foundation enough. Great video Nic! x

@wow2283 6 лет назад

First I would like to say thank you for taking the time to do this, really appreciate it. Maybelline Satin Liquid is my drugstore holy grail! Its even better than the majority of higher end one I've tried. I've got a foundation graveyard of over 40 because I am such a true combination skin, but to the extreme, very oily t zone and bone dry everywhere else. I find it incredibly difficult to find one I truly like and only so far found a few. At the drug store Satin Liquid is perfection in a bottle! Never creases, stays in place, doesn't break me out, sits nicely, stays on top of nose, doesn't sit horribly on dry patches and lasts 8 plus hours. It has one downside and that is that it doesn't minimize pores, doesn't make them bigger though and you just need to put a pore primer on first. The Healthy Mix is a lovely one too! x

@Fellinara 6 лет назад

I have the 24 hr Revlon foundation for oily skin as I have oily t zone combo skin. I love it for full coverage because it is build-able. I tend to have some redness in the cheeks as well and it evens that out well. I wore that as my foundation make up at Dragon Con (Atlanta's huge SciFi convention). This event happens every Labor Day (first Monday in Sept). Late August / Sept, we have near to 100 degree F temps sp seriously hot. Couple that with over 150 k people attending the convention between 5 hotels in downtown Atlanta, GA. GA is also humid as hell. This foundation didn't move, didn't melt, etc. I put it on at about 7:30 in the morning and past midnight that night, my foundation still looked great. I was kind of impressed. I don't wear it all the time as I feel it is a bit heavy for an everyday foundation but when I need to look flawless, I use it.

@mariyag9358 5 лет назад

Thank you for showing off your skin and the effect after foundation. I am really tired of youtoobers who use tons of lighting and filters where at the end it looks like a cartoon with no face features whatsoever. Its so refreshing to see your take on makeup. I just subscribed :)

@Vivita1414 6 лет назад

maybelline fit me matte is my summer go-to! i ONLY use it with a damp beauty sponge because i find that brushes/fingers make it look too matte and powdery on my normal skin and can emphasize dryness. the sponge gives it a really nice satin/natural/borderline glowy finish and it has the longevity of a high end foundation (i switch to the dewy version during the cooler months). sidenote: dont buy revlon foundations if you have really yellow/olive undertones, their shades run really pink and oxidize a bit.

@stephaniex8776 Год назад

would love an updated version of this vid! so many new drugstore foundations now

@rynlds521 6 лет назад

And did you shake the Nyx, it gives me full coverage right off the bat...and it lasted really well in 90 degree heat, and 98% humidity(and I’m 47). It was great! By the way I am pretty oily😬. And thank you, I love your videos!!

@StaceysAllSorts 5 лет назад

I tried the Bourjois Healthy Mix foundation earlier this year and I couldn’t get on with it. It definitely didn’t last all day and creased quite a lot under my eyes. I have dry/combination skin but I think it would be lovely for an oily skin type. Love this video, it’s so helpful, thank you 💕

I used to swear by the Revlon Colour Stay Oily/Combination when I worked abroad as a Club1830 rep. We went out EVERY night which meant I needed a foundation that lasted in the heat of Spain and Greece and it definitely did. I always liked the way my makeup looked and it was affordable. 👍🏼

@DorieBee-BARElynecessary 6 лет назад

IAB 2014 I actually never tried the gel before, might give it a go though ... I do agree that the shade range is very disappointing, you really are forced to get creative to make it match. I mean, 9 shades, 6 shades, 3 shades (excuse me?!): it's time for these brands to step up their game!

@starlinguk 6 лет назад

People who wear a large amount of matte foundation remind me of shop mannequins.

@ChezzaR1989 6 лет назад

I thought i would comment as although the Bourjouis healthy mix gel is rather dewy, I actually use it and I'm an oily skin type and it lasts a very long time on my skin. I also get so many lovely comments on my skin when I wear it. For an oily skin, the best way I find to wear it is to use a mattifying primer, then apply foundation with fingers or a sponge, press a setting powder into the skin over it to lock it in and then use a setting spray to take away the powdery look to the skin. It literally lasts all day and looks gorgeous :)

@NatalieValentina6 6 лет назад

It always shocks me how few foundation shades are (generally) available outside of the U.S. Most of these foundations are made by U.S. brands, & are available in 15-20 shades (sometimes 30-40) over here.The UK especially, is so culturally diverse, that I'm surprised they're not bringing over a bigger selection (even if only online)...3 shades? WTF?

@4sweetdreams2 6 лет назад

where I live it's amazing if any drugstore sells more than 3 shades of any foundation, and they're mostly all 3 shades of orange xD we just make it work as best as we can

@stephaniebrown6505 6 лет назад

Natalie Valentina the only thing I can think of is the store sizes. Smaller country, generally smaller store sizes and in most high street stores brands compete for space. Local stores tend to have smaller selections compared to larger department stores which many have to travel quite a distance to. They really should make more available online etc though. It's frustrating. I have olive skin, nothing special, however it can be hard to find a decent fit. I sometimes have to use a product that doesn't fit my skin type all because it matches my shade better.

@jovana_kocic 6 лет назад

Yup I agree. Here in macedonia all of my clients are in 3 shades max. but its so unfair to have no selection ...and what we do have is all terribly pink and yellow. So I tend to use Kryolan for the most part

@SingingASMRSongs 6 лет назад

Aalisha Thapa awesome! I'm currently using the diorskin forever undercover and I'm loving the staying power of it, but I probably will try the infallible after it's used up 😊 I had the perfect match foundation before that, and it really was a perfect match, but it was gone after lunch on some areas 😄

@angelche1992 6 лет назад

I don't recommend it, if you have oily, acne-prone skin. It will cover very well and stay on too, but if you have some dry spots the foundation will show them. I have very oily and acne-prone skin and I use this foundation. I wish it didn't show my dry spots so much, because I love the formula and the lightest shade fits me very well. Most affordable foundations are too dark for me even in their lightest shade.

@SingingASMRSongs 6 лет назад

Katerina Hristova I hear you! I'm usually the lightest or the second to lighter shade, and the lightest out of the forever undercover one is actually way too dark for winter. I'll use the custom lightening drops from the body shop to lighten a foundation! Thanks for the info about the foundation, I'll try it out. Don't think I've had the dry spots problem before so I should be fine 😊 greets from Germany 🖖

@charlotteellison9649 6 лет назад

I love it but definitely try the one in the glass bottle and not the squeeze tube as the shade range is much more flattering, the formula is gorgeous for oily skin whereas the squeezy tube feels more like paste and cracked quite easily on my oily skin!

@dakritree 6 лет назад

I've tried the Rimmel ones and the Infallible foundations - none play well with my oily skin. (Slips off mid way through the day, pools in my pores) The NYX one looks promising! Thanks, Nic, for another fantastic video.

@sagesabiduria7120 6 лет назад

All I know is FitMe looks beautiful on me for only about 5 hrs, but if I use a setting spray and bake, it lasts forever. Colourstay stays on 10+ hrs, and NYX in the dropper style bottle goes on sooo thin and seamlessly and lasts through super hot sweaty weather.

Well she wanted to really show us a good variety so it’s kind of hard to show us how they ALL wear - especially since she has dry skin and that won’t do many of them justice :) you can probably find first impression videos on them all if you search their names.

I have very oily skin and have struggled to find a drugstore foundation that works with my skin type! I tried ‘Maybelline Fit Me’ as it does state that it’s matte and poreless and it didn’t work for me. It was really dewy and would be better for a dryer skin type. I am currently using the L’Oreal inflammable and it is probably most of the best I have tried so far so anybody with an oily skin type, definitely try the Inflammable one!

Revlon Colorstay for combo/oily works better than any foundation I have ever tried from the drug store and even some high end (that’s made for oily skin) No complaints 👍

@stepmothercity 6 лет назад

I have oily, red skin and live by Revlon Colorstay in Oily/Combo. Usually two layers around my nose does the trick, and lasts all day. I hate when I accidentally pick up the Dry version... They’re completely different and need different packaging! It looks really oily on me, light coverage, and doesn’t last at all. Of course it is for dry skin. It looks pretty at first though.

@spfisterer3651 6 лет назад

Sounds like i really need to try that... I always hesitate because it isnt in stores where i live and i hate deciding on a shade online...

Seaweed Witch thanks for sharing! I have the same skin. But what is worse I’ve developed recently an allergy on my face. Let me check if its for allergic skin

@ashleyann2720 6 лет назад

I use the infallible one and I love it! I find for myself a little goes a long way. It's deceiving because it seems like it won't blend out but a tiny bit did go really far. The coverage is so good that I don't need to alway use concealer under my eyes.

@joannamurphy1592 6 лет назад

The Rimmel Wake Me Up is my fave go to foundation, of all the higher end brands I’ve tried I always gravitate back to this instead!

@euteubier 6 лет назад

Revlon Colorstay smooths on so perfectly and stays on my oily skin well. I'm glad you mention the yellowness of some foundations, which really shows on my pale skin. Colorstay avoids this and I get a good match. Really informative - thanks!

@thegemmachic 6 лет назад

Bourjoir healthy mix serum gel is my go to drugstore foundation, it’s lasts a long time, doesn’t feel heavy, gives you a glow but you can also make it matte with a good translucent powder - just all round an amazing foundation x

@rebeccacalver4610 6 лет назад

Glad to see you review the No 7 range, i've always used these but rarely hear them spoken about. I used to use the beautifully Matte but now use the Lift and illuminate as its so glowy and natural looking

@nataliesidoti3 6 лет назад

I use Revlon Color Stay and I have oily/combination skin. In my experience it applies better if you use a blender sponge, rather than a brush. Its not as streaky and it pushes the foundation into the skin. Which, in turn, makes it move less when you touch your face. I've used it for years and love it.

@rachelluna7144 6 лет назад

I think some looked cakey because they aren't designed to be brushed on as that brush is quite full coverage. I think a damp real tech beauty sponge would have worked a bit better. Love your videos xxxx

The bourjois healthy mix in the square bottle I found wasn’t so good, it oxidised so much that I actually looked slightly orange by the end of the day

@CrystalCandy2 6 лет назад

I have the Rimmel Lasting Finish Breathable foundation and it's one of my favorite natural-looking foundation! My skin is very oily, and it lasts 12 hours on me if I set it with a bit of loose powder. I don't use the doe foot applicator to apply the foundation, I think you are supposed to dot it on your face and then blend it with a brush, beautyblender or your fingers, but I prefer to put it on the back of my hand because I have acne-prone skin and don't want to contaminate the whole bottle.

@heatherjane910 6 лет назад

This was really helpful. Thank you! Question for you... Are you still using Lilash?

@CoupsyBaby 5 лет назад

Revlon colour stay - I have dry skin however I use to think I was oily and tried nearly every drugstore foundation out there. I used the oily version and now have the dry and wearing it day in day out I have notified a massive difference. Obviously Nic only tried it on for a moment and asked us to comment. It’s my holy grail now yes it is only medium coverage however day to day that is perfect for me but is buildable to full. I find using the RT sponge works best. It lasts all day especially when paired with a setting spray. As mentioned most drugstore foundations are geared to oily so as a dry skin girl I was struggling to find a decent foundation which wasn’t high end and expensive for everyday use! All the raves ones from RU-vidrs seem to work brilliant with oily but terrible for dry, so if like me you have dry skin I would highly recommend this foundation! Xx

@tabatha9577 6 лет назад

The No7 makes your pores and skin look so great! It's $40 in the U.S.! Whaaaaaat?..

@katherinearriaza7168 6 лет назад

Tabitha Seid maybe it is just some shades bc i use it too but it doesnt oxidize

@kristenskala7050 6 лет назад

Oxidation is dependent on the person not the makeup. It's the pH level in ones skin that causes it two people could put the same foundation on and one could oxidized and one wouldn't because everybody's skin is different pH levels

@mishmash3968 6 лет назад

Tabitha Seid oil production plays a big part oxidation, so try a good primer.

@vra_Tori 6 лет назад

I love these try on reviews of foundations. It does give the consumer a bit more information and feels more honest than the advertisements. I used the Rimmel breathable one and it is not very good. I have dry, sensitive skin and is approved by my allergist for specific skin allergies but I noticed as the hours wore on it started getting patchy and began flaking off in my t-zone (my dryers area of the face. 🤷🏻‍♀️weird, I know). It is also interesting to me that the Maybelline fit me has no SPF in the UK version because the ones here in the USA have octinoxate, an ingredient of chemical sunscreen which will make me break out and sensitize my face.

@KayaaA 5 лет назад

I have dry and textured skin and even some of the foundations needed for dry skin don’t work for me as I can see my pores and my foundation becomes a bit textured and not smooth 😭😭😭

@vintagesoniia 6 лет назад

Thank you for the video, Nic! I love the formate a lot! I have normal skin, a little shinier on the nose and quite dry smile lines. I use Revlon Colorstay for Combo/Oily since every review that I've found states that the difference between the two kinds is unnoticeable, however my colour - 150 Buff - is a little lighter and suits me better in Oily version vs. Dry (not sure why). It sits nicely on my skin, cakes a little in dry areas. Builds up very nicely (I used to use is under my eyes as a concealer). In my experience, look better if tapping is applied, rather than buffing with a brush. It is a nice foundation and lasts around 8 hours on me, than cracks on my nose. I mostly use it because the colour match is impeccable. I used to use Bourjois Healthy mix gel/serum back in my teenage years, when my skin was much more oily, and even then I loved it. It looks like real skin, buffs in beautifully, and nothing in the drugstore beats it in my opinion. If only they brought out more shades, I would leave Revlon for it ;)

@selenamarghi 6 лет назад

i have to say that my experience with the rimmel wake me up foundation was not the best! the foundation is beautiful untill you go out in the sunlight and it looks super glittery, like little sparkles all over your face! beautiful when you are inside taking pictures but not the best for my day to day life.

@evamarie7938 6 лет назад

The bourjois healthy mix gel is my holy grail! Been using it for years now and I love the finish! It’s a nice light to medium if you build it up coverage which is perfect! You can apply a nice layer to even out the skin then use your high coverage concealer for the problem areas, leaves the skin looking naturally beautiful. I have normal skin and find I don’t need t powder with it either!

@amy3971 6 лет назад

You should have chosen the other infalliable foundation (in the glass bottle), much more sensible shade range! (And in my opinion, a much nicer foundation) The Bourjois Healthy Mix is one of my all time favourites, along with the glass bottle Infalliable. I wanted to love the Revlon dry skin one, but it seems to show up every bit or dryness!

@antjethijs168 6 лет назад

I have a combination to oily skin. Here are my opinions on the ones i've tried: The maybelline fit me dries very quickly so i feel like i'm in a hurry to blend it. When set, it feels like a powder so it looks powdery on me. Only powder my t zone and lasts about 6 hours. The rimmel wake me up has GLITTER in it. Pretty inside, discoball when i go outside. You can see the glitter very prominently. Medium coverage, 6 hours staying power. Can look cakey. The rimmel breathable looks really good and almost flawless on me. Also beautiful when powdered. Light to low medium coverage but a bit lacking in staying power. 5 hours for me.

@chloetyrrell296 6 лет назад

I love the rimmel wake me up foundation, I have combination skin, it doesn’t cling to my dry patches and it wears really well throughout the day. For the type of weather we’ve been having in the uk I’ve been mixing it with a bit of moisturiser and applying it with my fingers and it’s soooo beautiful!

Great video, Nic. I have the first Bourjois foundation you demo'd and I love it even for my slightly oily-combo skin because i still like the foundation to look like skin without being too matte. This does that for me. I powder where needed to take the shine out.

@rebeccawilliams1563 6 лет назад

Can we touch on the fact the SPF means very little on the bottle - the amount you would need to put on to have the protection of the SPF would be near a qtr of the bottle! In the interest of skin cancer/protection please all put a separate SPF on especially during this heat wave we are having in the UK as well as anywhere else. Loved this - so informative and didn’t care how long it was. I have oily/combination skin and love the Bourjois foundations- so naturally glowy and sits on the skin amazingly x 💕

@tiffany10184 6 лет назад

There are 3 L'oreal infallible foundations available here in the US.( pro-matte -12 shades, total coverage-10 shades and pro-glow-12 shades). I absolutely love it. I also use the fit me foundation. I tend to mix them for the perfect coverage.

@sharonmariek 6 лет назад

tiffany10184 I use these two drugstore foundations. I'm a 120 or 125 in Fit Me for dry skin and infallible pro glow 205 (I'm a dry skin girl) lasts all day. I work outside, so most foundations disappear by noon. I also like wet n wild photo focus foundation. Fit me I think looks more like a high end foundation

@ScarletClarity 5 лет назад

I have to say, your face, hair and eye colour throughout the video somehow remind me of young Salma Hayek and what I imagine Cristine Rose looked like when she was much younger. Your natural lip colour and hair pinned up like that suits you so much! I was kind of shocked to see your face in the end with such different make-up; I'd love to see a make-up look going more in the direction of your natural look beforehand! :)

I use the Rimmel breathable one and I love the applicator. I used to use the rimmel skin perfecting full coverage 25 hour one. But because I’m in school I prefer this one much more!!! The applicator is AMAZING ! I just put the amount I need. I’ve been using it for about 3 months and still have about half left. And I only need to a small amount of powder. Which is a massive bonus because I have dry skin so I want the glowing foundation underneath ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ love this video, helps soooo much!!!!
