This is my HG. Love it. I'm 51 normal skin and African American in shade Amber. They need to open up the range more.

@fiddyteen 5 лет назад

To me the skincare isn't really in the foundation. I use the LaMer skincare for skincare. It's a good foundation if you want to buy it.

@meganchandler9078 5 лет назад

I think this is The Best foundation I've seen on your skin. It looks beautiful imo. 😍

@daproduction7820 5 лет назад

I love everything about this look 😍. Your skin looks radiant!

@kellymoore7383 5 лет назад

I have had this foundation for awhile now and it is my most favorite go to foundation ever for my skin type. I save it for special occasions though because I want to savor it for as long as I can because of its price point 😊

@veryvoguish8203 5 лет назад

What an adorable kitty you’ve got there ❤️

@KendyJane67 5 лет назад

Shelly it looks absolutely beautiful. You have this glow. I will be waiting for the revisit video in the future to see how the skincare in the foundation works.

@ncoppens 5 лет назад

Since I have very sensitive dry skin I started making most of my skin care myself years ago and my best moisturizer is made with hemp seed oil and kombucha I brew myself. Kombucha is a fermented drink and I use both the liquid and ground up scoby to make it. So I strongly believe in using fermented products in skincare, but at that price tag....no way!! Fermenting takes a long time, but is not time consuming at all. In my opnion any foundation priced that high is just hype. Love your video's and would love to know what you use to moisturize the under eye area during winter. Mine have started turning crepey as soon as the weather changed.

@carolinagirl3219 5 лет назад

Looks very pretty on you but it would have to look like it give me a facelift for me to pay 120 for it lol.

@goow 5 лет назад

@ArtsyCupcake 5 лет назад

LOL no kidding, that is one expensive foundation. Or maybe the bottle magically refills itself 6 times?!

The foundation is lovely ...I like the dewy look....pricey but pretty!

@jeannestarks832 5 лет назад

Briana Stanko did a dupe comparison too, with the Neutrogena Hydroboost Foundation, and it turned out to be a super, almost undetectable dupe as well... and she is bougie as heck(self professed) when it comes to only using high-end products. So, I think I'll save my money(not like I'd drop that kind of $$ on a foundation anyway). I already have the Physician's Formula Healthy Foundation, and since I already use the Neutrogena Hydoboost skincare; I think I'll pick that one up too. Good luck with that LaMer though ;). LaMer, Pat McGrath, Natasha Denona... Do your thing, Shelly!

@ArtsyCupcake 5 лет назад

Oh good to know - I will check out that comparison video, would love to save like over 100 dollars if I can! LOL!

@wontontay 5 лет назад

Would you ever consider doing a full week of your morning/night routine? Your skin is looking amazing! I need someone to teach me how to use all the various products i.e. how often and in what order.

@goow 5 лет назад

Yes! I've got an update to my PM routine coming in the next few weeks, and I was thinking of doing a "how-to" video on constructing a routine (including various products I've used for various steps depending what I needed at the time).

@wontontay 5 лет назад

@@goow Thanks! 💕 I tried a few of your favorites and I really like them. I love your videos because I feel like we are similar skin types, I'm 43 with normal to dry dehydrated skin as well but I have more fine lines which I would like to address.

@nadeenkatz376 5 лет назад

I thought this looked beautiful on your skin. It’s definitely on my list, but I’m currently working through Chanel Sublimage. Both the La Mer and the Chanel are expensive, but if it looks nice I’m willing to pay more for something that leaves my skin a little better than it was before. My skin really responds to most La Mer products over any others (other than Augustinus Bader-that might be even better) so seeing results is worth a little more money to me at this age (48). 🙂

@joyride924 5 лет назад

Very interesting! Can you compare that to Physicians Formula healthy foundation please?. Jessica Braun thinks it's a dupe. Nevermind, I just re watched you you PF video. That's the one that oxidized on you. (I still love that lipstick you wore in that video) 😉

@ambergerhelper7852 5 лет назад

Joyride94 She tried a darker shade of the PF and liked it. ☺️

@goow 5 лет назад

Yep I was able to get a darker shade of the PF not to oxidize - not sure if I just had a dud in the lighter shade, or if the formulas are slightly different.

@bjornolson21 5 лет назад

I think people were also saying neutrogena hydraboost is a dupe. Obviously not skincare wise, but I wonder. This does look beautiful

@melmcmahan6826 5 лет назад

I wear foundation so infrequently that this may be a good one to keep around! I prefer full coverage when I do wear it because the dry skin I have makes it impossible to wear powder to help cover! I haven't tried the Dior Backstage yet either as I can't get a sample that has my correct color! Thank you for the video! Always supporting you! Your cat is adorable. Bless our little fur babies!

@KG9551 5 лет назад

I feel like if I was to spend a crap-ton of money on a la mer product, I’d rather have the “miracle broth” in a serum or moisturizer rather than a foundation

@francescareese7118 5 лет назад

I've been away helping my mom for 8 days and now catching up on all your videos. This looks really so pretty on you from my view. I might try a sample, but I don' think I could bring myself to spend the $$ like I might have in my 30's when I was way overboard not taking pricing in to consideration! Thank you!

@goow 5 лет назад

Thanks Francesca! I'm hoping to do a test of this over a few weeks to see if I see any benefits from the skin care. I'll of course record it all for you guys!

@beverlysaylor7339 5 лет назад

Hi Shelly, Was waiting for this one. Great review! I don't think I could have said it better of how I feel about this. I actually wore this today "because" my skin has been "unhappy" and whatever is in it it did look better today and seems to be healing. I absolutely do Not think this is a dupe for the Neutrogena...I did see the video where Kassie said that....However I WILL say that the Estee Lauder Perfectionist is the closet to the LaMer and it does last much longer....in fact (for me) the Perfectionist is one of those foundations that looks better with wear. Perfectionist is a beautiful foundation. Thanks again for the review! xxoo

@ArtsyCupcake 5 лет назад

Oh! Good to know. I love the estee lauder brand but have not tried the perfectionist. Will have to check it out - thanks for the tip!

@lisad424 5 лет назад

@andrearoberts2776 5 лет назад

Thank you for another great review, looking forward to foundation fest!While I think the foundation looked lovely on you, it would have to not only make me look ten years younger and fifty pounds lighter, but also clean my house, make me breakfast, brew me a cup of coffee, and serve both to me in bed every morning for me to pay that much for foundation. 😂 I may be a bit of a peasant.

@ArtsyCupcake 5 лет назад

LOL, yes for that price I would expect those things too haha!!

@hammypie 5 лет назад

The pretty finish is very important to me too! That’s like the biggest reason why I wear foundation haha. You’re right to rate it regardless on price bc if it’s good it’s good. If I liked it enough and could then I would get it too! Foundation is like the most important makeup for me now that I don’t have flawless skin. Everything else u could find decent thing at cheap prices, but foundation is worth paying much more for if u find a good one ☝🏻

@goow 5 лет назад

Yep same here - my whole look seems to revolve around what I think of the foundation these days.

@marywarner 5 лет назад

I have a few products I like (e.g. Perricone tinted moisturizer, No.7 Airbrush tinted perfector) which claim skincare benefits, but I wonder if good ingredients can get through moisturizer, sunscreen and primer? You look lovely as always.

@iwillstom 5 лет назад

mary warner That’s a really good point. I would rather buy a more expensive serum and have it sit closer to my skin. Whenever a foundation claims skincare benefits I’m always skeptical. It’s a nice bonus but it would never be the main selling point for me. For $120 I’d want it to make me look flawless, 18 again, AND do my dishes. 😂

@asassysenior1085 5 лет назад

This a great look for you with this hair color!

@ashlimathews4712 5 лет назад

Thanks Shelly for another great video!! Your skin looks so beautiful at the beginning of the video before the foundation. So dewy and gorgeous 😍 can’t wait for the next one!!

THANK YOU for the detailed info on this, alfalfa is something I avoid - in all forms - so as soon as I heard it was in the foundation I took it off my “to try” list! Kinda glad actually, it’s very expensive!

@thesimplepeachify 5 лет назад

Ive never used a brush, always a beauty blender, and never more than one coat, but this foundation looks better the longer I wear it. I like it. I like your review too:):)

@robinmilroy8573 5 лет назад

This one I wanted to hate- I went to get samples 3 times before I finally took the leap. It looks so gorgeous for about 5 hours then it breaks up a bit on me, mostly between my eyes and around my nose. I wear this for special occasions where I will not be wearing it longer than 5 or 6 hours. I do get compliments every time I wear it though. I am 52 and normal to dry skin and this one actually makes my skin look younger- it better for 120 bucks! I use that same shade and it the best match I have found for my skin tone but I do lean warm. I think it looks great on you!

@goow 5 лет назад

I got a bunch of compliments on it at work too. People know I test makeup but when they don't like something, they just keep their mouths shut 😂so this one had to look better than usual for so many people to mention it.

@robinmilroy8573 5 лет назад

That is so true! I am such a makeup Geek that when I get compliments from coworkers and clients I will literally journal what I wore that day and that is what helps me determine my holy grails. When people ask me if I am tired or sick I know that I need a new concealer! I am such a vain DIVA and it is secretly so satisfying. I am an OT and see tons of people up close and personal and the kids really give it to you straight- they are my best makeup meter! "why do your eyes look crazy today?" "why are you so shiny" they all hate highlighters! It is so fun

Omgoodness I have googled La Mer wear test, and no one's has done one... Please please do one!!!!!! Love the review...

@goow 5 лет назад

It was starting to break down at 8 1/2 hours on me, so it's not super-long wearing in my experience so far. I need to try it with different combos of primers/etc to get a better feel for it but I wouldn't call it long-wearing. I'd call it average-wearing (to me, average is 8-10 hours. Very good is 10-12 and long-wearing is 12+).

@ArdalaDog 5 лет назад

I have to admit, I often have a hard time discerning between finishes on foundation, but this one is very clearly dewy/glowy. I am not, however, in the market for such a spendy foundation! In fact, I noticed that my skin has gotten slightly lighter and more neutral/cool for the winter and my Bobbie Brown is pulling a little yellow on me, so I used your Foundation Matrix to select a drugstore foundation for the next couple of months.

@goow 5 лет назад

Isn't it wild how undertones can shift? I'm generally neutral but shift warm in the summer and cool in the winter, both only slightly.

@JenniferHRoss 5 лет назад

Yass! The review I've been waiting for! I nailed the B+/A-. Can you give an update in a few weeks after you've had a chance to wear it more? It doesn't have to be a dedicated video - just an update as part of a regular video or a GRWM would be good. I'm willing to pay the money for a foundation that works, but I'd prefer to wait until it's been fully road tested. Thanks as always and have a super weekend.

@goow 5 лет назад

It's my favorite thing when you guys are able to guess the grades because I must be consistent enough that you can tell what I'm thinking! :-D I am thinking about doing something like 30 days of selfies with this one (almost consecutively but I'd have to take a day off per week to film the other Friday foundation videos, and then there's usually a day or two per week that I don't wear foundation - so it'll probably take 5-6 weeks to do the whole series of wearing it for 30 of those days, but if it's near consecutive I think it should give a good idea of how the skin care works. Then I'd do an update video with all of those photos and updated thoughts :) and probably half of the bottle of foundation gone LOL

@ambergerhelper7852 5 лет назад

LOL But my first priority with any makeup product is that is performs well as makeup. I had a sample of the Le Mer moisturizing cream a few months ago and I really did not like fragrance! I don't mind when products have a scent that comes from the active ingredients I just can't stand added perfume to products, especially skincare. Here's one for the suggestion box: Diorskin Forever foundation. Have a wonderful weekend!!

I think I'll stick with that when feeling the need to ferment!! Thanks for another great video.

Yikes, that us SO expensive 😲😲 I have watched Mel Thompson use "the" powder so many times, and gosh it looks amazing on her skin! I just could never spend that much on a cosmetic product. *a bunch of sea creature sounding stuff 😂😂 You always make me smile ❤

@isabelab6851 5 лет назад

I never use primer with this foundation. Or set it. It looks better as the day goes on...I wear it when I have long days at work and it has to be perfect. When I wear it several days in a row my skin looks fabulous. And this does. As with all foundations, it depends on many variables by individual. I love it. The only down side for me is that is has chemical sunscreen and I am trying to avoid those

@goow 5 лет назад

I'm thinking of doing a 30-day wear test with this one (which will probably take a week or two longer because maybe a day per week I don't wear foundation, and once a week I'll have to wear something else to film the Friday foundation videos.... but a count of 30 almost-consecutive days wearing the La Mer) to see how it goes with the skin care! And to figure out its favorite primer-or-not combos on my skin :)

@greenbeauties 5 лет назад

please do a follow up video on this foundation when you have been using it regularly. Thanks

@goow 5 лет назад

Will do!!

@JP-ni6vc 5 лет назад

It looks very nice on you but you have tested others that I like equally or more. The only way I would spend that much on foundation is if it was the ONLY foundation that looked good on me AND did not cause sensitivity issues (which is the exact reason that I spend $30 on mascara). Have a great weekend, Shelly.

@sarahroehl 5 лет назад

While the concept of the miracle broth is really interesting, I would question whether or not you would see the full benefit of it by using the foundation layered over other skin care, sunscreen, and a primer. I think would be much more inclined to spend the $130 on some of the La Mer skincare products that I would be applying directly to the skin. The finish did look really nice on you but I think you've had other foundations that have looked just as good or better for a lower price point. Ultimately if you continue to use it and love it then that's all that really matters!

@juliac280 5 лет назад

La Mer has a policy that they don't give samples at Sephora (don't know about department stores though). One of the girls at Sephora apologized and said i could return it if i didn't like it. What a waste! I hate returning makeup because i can't stand the thought of them ending up in landfills! The shade range of LaMer is awful too. I'm light medium with warm undertones but they were all peachy pink and some neutral. I have 30+ foundations and many that i love. I just don't need this. The miracle broth also sounds shady.

@amydaniels6442 5 лет назад

You can definitely get a sample from the department store. I got one from Nordstrom. Sadly, this one didn't work for my normal/combo skin. It's ok, my pocketbook said THANK YOU! 🤣

@joleenfelio-pettit2813 5 лет назад

I think this looked great on your skin as it gave you a natural glowy look all day. However at the mid check in I felt it looked super heavy and makeup-e. Still had the nice glow but didn't look natural just... heavy is the only word I can find to describe it. You know that packed on look. Definitely agree from A distance it still looked good at the end of the night. Personally, I wouldn't and couldn't spend that much on a foundation no matter what's in the magic broth. I understand the cost based on the processing but still I think I'd rather spend that money on my actual skin Care and just use a cheaper brand of makeup especially if it holds up for longer. Prioritizes!! Lol thanks for the review. I've seen I think 2 others with different skin types review this and they had the same issues. I did find the fun fact part interesting though. I'm sure those with skin issues (acne, scarring, roseceia, etc) would probably see more of A difference then those of us just aging and fighting the normal skin changes life throws at us. Can't wait for foundation fest!! Have A great week Shelly!!❤

@judyjetson2706 5 лет назад

Shelly the Foundation is a good.color match for you. Looks nice on your skin but I've seen other foundations look good on you way under the $120 price tag.

Just wanted to let you know the bobbie brown website is having a 20% off sale so if you want to buy that balm you were talking about the other day now is the time. Also the price was raised to 100 dollars now for it which sucks.

@goow 5 лет назад

I just got the balm on the BB site with the discount, woohoo! (And choked a bit when I saw the price went up 5 bucks!!!)

@helpfulnatural 5 лет назад

Holy Moly that's expensive!! It is a very smooth and dewy finish and there appeared to be no creasing or polka dot pores either. :) I think it's great that they put their skincare ingredients in the foundation which could explain the high price tag. Speaking of "winter skin", we are having a very early taste of winter here with snow, and temps that dropped into the teens the past few days. :-( Which is putting my new-ish skincare products to the test. I began using them in September and so far, so good! I have had to add a little bit of facial oil to my foundations though which is typical for me during the cold, dry months. Just didn't think I'd have to start this routine so soon. :( UGH...I hate winter.... :-/

@goow 5 лет назад

We skipped right over fall here, too! It's not super cold yet but today's high is in the low 40s which is a bummer when it's supposed to be mid-50s!

Ohh .. Huda Beauty New Nude palette versus Kevyn Aucoin Nude Pop

@goow 5 лет назад

The Huda palette looks beautiful but I'm probably not going to get it only because I have Huda in my head as a brand I'm not going to get into due to having too many brands I religiously buy from! :-D

Hi!! I love this foundation and was wondering if you ever tried the shade porcelain? If yes did it look better than ivory?

@goow 5 лет назад

Hi Karine! I haven't been able to get my hands on any samples in other shades (and it's too expensive to buy another one!)

@PlanningWithK 5 лет назад

Thank you for answering! I am between porcelain and ivory! 😊

@PlanningWithK 5 лет назад

I went to Nordstrom today and got porcelain! I think you would like porcelain better than ivory! This foundation is so beautiful and I wish I hadn’t like it in the first place 😂😂

@juliedaly2317 5 лет назад

I saw someone on youtube do a review of a dupe of this and the dupe was about 160 bucks! supposedly it was " cleaner." i'm a little afraid of the fragrance in La Mer because my skin usually reacts to that, but it sure looks nice.

@gracer7943 5 лет назад

Yes me too, I think her name is Elle. The one she said it was a dupe has no fragance and I think is a starting small business.

@juliedaly2317 5 лет назад

I looked it up. It's called 37 actives and is 165 bucks at Neiman Marcus.

@juliedaly2317 5 лет назад

So I got a sample of this from Nordstrom. It really is nice. I had an Estee foundation in the 80s that was called Estee Demi-matte oil free foundation. This is the closest I've come to that product which was my favorite til it was discontinued. For anyone who is sensitive, this did not make my skin flame up the way most things with fragrance do. Unfortunately the scent really hangs in there so I'm going to use it a few more times to see if I get used to it.

@KG9551 5 лет назад

Mel McMahan I used to swear by the aquasmooth foundation years ago and they have the closest shade match to my skin I’ve ever found in the drug store... so excited I get to try them out again!! They are now the largest cosmetics company to go CF, hopefully the other big companies will follow

@oguilhau 5 лет назад

That foundation, I'm glad to say, didn't do much for me. It's $150 here in Canada!!! I did order about 30 of those AOA sponges today lol...

@goow 5 лет назад

@leeannmcclintic7637 5 лет назад

I wouldn’t mind spending the money if the foundation looks amazing on my skin the problem is most high end foundations have fragrance and my sensitive skin can’t handle it unfortunately

@bjornolson21 5 лет назад

I've read some reviews about people having reactions to the miracle broth. Would probably be good to test a tiny area first

@goow 5 лет назад

Yeah there are a lot of marine type ingredients and I was actually curious if I was going to react, because my skin has not liked some sea-stuff in the past. No problems with this one, but definitely worth careful testing for sensitivities.

@jenns.4187 5 лет назад

I'm finding this to be the case as well. I tried this and it does look really pretty all day though my skin feels... odd. I also have a Clarins foundation and at first I thought it was fine but after buying it and wearing it a few more times, it seems I'm having a reaction. I really don't need perfume/fragrance in my foundation but the worst offender for that is Huda.

@cristychu1525 5 лет назад

I was kinda hoping you’d hate this, lol. Now I want to try it.

@goow 5 лет назад

LOL well at least it's not the best thing I've ever worn! 😂I would say if you do try it, just be sure to get it where you can return it (or get a sample if possible). It's too much money to spend on something you don't love.

@amandak6766 5 лет назад

I would like to hear your opinion in a couple months. Ditto to comments below.

Yep I'll make sure this one is in the next foundation follow-up!!

@LuluOnBeauty 5 лет назад

Hi, I really want the La Mer powder brush but somehow never tempted by the foundation, maybe because of my oily skin. Speaking of brushes, I justi posted a face brush declutter while drinking wine. Holy smokes. I mentiooned you in the video and the elf brush, time stamp about 15:38ish. Don't want to post a link since I know sometimes that lands a comment in spam. That concealer is always out of stock in my color. I think every review I have watched has been superb. It's good you like the foundation but I don't know . The entire La Mer thing drives me a bit crazy and I don't know why. Cheers, Lulu

@goow 5 лет назад

Wine + brush declutter is a BRILLIANT idea!!! Thanks for the shout-out! I've been wanting to buy a shade lighter in the CT concealer and it's been out of stock forever. :-/

@tarahkayschomburg 4 года назад

I was wondering , How are you feeling about this foundation now ? Did you finish the whole bottle ?

@goow 4 года назад

I'm not sure I'll ever finish a foundation since I have so many of them (200 or so!) but nothing has really changed in my opinion on this one since the review. I like it but for the price, it's a bit disappointing. I don't see any major skin care improvements from wearing it. Another very expensive foundation I tried that I love so much I bought a second shade is the By Terry Anti Wrinkle foundation. My skin feels better at the end of the day after taking it off than at the beginning when I started (it, too, has skin care ingredient claims). It's much more noticeable to me in the By Terry. If you're going to spend the 3-digit price tag, I'd try seeing if you can get a By Terry sample to try.

@tarahkayschomburg 4 года назад

Geek Out of Water thank you ! I def have dry skin and find that certain ones I think break me out or cause my skin to turn reddish and wear away in those areas I tried the guerlain 16 hour glow and it was pricy but didn’t work for me sadly I did find a second hand La Mer and hope to be able to use it a week straight and not have a reaction like I usually do

@sweetox_9690 5 лет назад

Hmmm...I feel slightly responsible as I asked you to review this stuff. But I don't feel too bad, seeing as I have bought at least a dozen foundations due to your reviews. So we can call it even 😁 The difference between this one and the La Prairie Caviar is the La Prairie doesn't look like you are even wearing makeup, but makes your skin look plumped and gorgeous. They are both still totally unnecessary frivolous purchases. Canda finally got CATRICE! I immediately ordered the Dewy Setting Spray, got my order today, ripped into it...And they forgot to put it in my order!!! 😭 Between that and me ordering the wrong Lancome foundation, my order was a complete bust 😖

@goow 5 лет назад

omg I'd have had a fit if the Catrice spray wasn't in there 😂My cats see all manners of makeup tantrums over here!! That sucks. :(
