As a +50, I think this line is geared more to our age group. Simple and moisturizing, because we are generally incredibly dry. It's all the retinol, vit C and booze. An early Bobbie Brown product (circa 1996) was very similar to this balm. This line also does a great job covering redness...another +50 problem. The pencil works well, too. That colour looks beautiful on you!
@@detsie8 So, I use MAC Prep & Prime 24 hour extend eye base. This is magical for me to keep things in place on my lids and under my lash line under eye. I rarely get flake now from mascarra or liner. Especially with all this Jones Road goodness on my skin! Try it!! it's a life saver...and you don't even need to do eyeshadow...it's great !
@@christinab.85 I highly recommend trying the Dieux Deliverance - I thought it was a little expensive for a serum but am now on autoship (less expensive). It is very calming and using it has made a huge difference in my skin health.
I remember buying that same BB balm from Saks in the 90’s as a teen. It was D E W Y and quite glorious. Heaven forbid you get any in your eyes, because it burned.
Btw this was definitely the best review of these products. Kackie has the most satisfying vocabulary to explain what is really up with the products and what they’re meant for. I personally feel as though they’re fool proof for a natural looking better skin day that leaves you looking effortless and beautifully you. Idk I really dig it. I actually hardly ever powder my face not even my under eyes and think this might be something I’d enjoy. Thanks Kackie once again for a job well done. Love you mama 😘
I adore this foundation. I'm almost 40 with dry skin and I've been wearing this every day since I got it. My face feels so nice at the end of the day. It's such a fun and new product that actually seems to benefit my skin so far.
As a dehydrated skin girl, I adore the WTF foundation. Only thing I’ve ever used that keeps my skin hydrated all day and I live in the south! I gave away my sparkle washes to my daughter- way too glittery unless you like glitter on your face at the end of the day!
I have oily skin, I set this with powder and a setting spray and it lasts for 12hrs. It is beautiful! If you want light coverage this is great. If I want a bit of more coverage I use a concealer where I need it and set it with powder and a setting spray. Done. Love it!
This is the first base product I’ve used that did NOT cause my problem areas to dry out and reveal texture! I’m in South Florida & it didn’t get weird and greasy/melty in the heat & humidity. I love it so far!
That is my issue, texture....it seems so many foundations will show texture (a.k.a Born and raised in Florida and did not grow up using SPF) on my cheeks, or the product slowly dries out my face and you see heavy pigment from the foundation-
I live near the Jersey store and picked up the WTF as soon as it arrived. I love it. It is a bit greasy feeling on application but dries down and sets shortly after applying it. My old skin loves it.
You are so entertaining. I just love your content. I used to ‘adjust expectations’ for clean beauty but then Westman Atelier came along and did everything SO RIGHT!!
Yes! I was hoping you would review!!! I started watching you because it was the only things that calmed down my dogs when they were crate training. Now all three of us will sit in the living room and watch each episode!! 😂❤️ I started exploring my personal style and makeup thanks to you! ❤️🎉 it’s been an eventful journey!
Bobbi brown did similar product before. Was the tinted balm , was very loved at the Bobbi brown brand , was very beautiful and balmy barely any coverage , beautifull glow, great for pre make up. Same with the pencils Bobbi brown did it before and was a great product, but wasn’t successful at the time
That Kosas powder is one of the most amazing makeup products I've ever used...and I've been using makeup for a LOOOOOONGGG time. You look great in this foundation - very natural and radiant! I live in AZ now, so I'm thinking WFT might be good for the incredibly dry summer months (esp at my age).
I think you look great. I just ordered this but I wish that I had watched a few more reviews before I ordered. I am 50 with normal leaning more oily. I saw someone say that if you're oily just skip your regular moisturizer - hope that works. I wanted something that I could use on days that I am not doing full makeup but still want to look alive :)
I also gave Jones Road another chance after giving away my first purchase. I love her makeup philosophy and even worked for her way back in the day. I wanted to love this so much and as a 55 year old dry-skinned woman thought the WTF and sticks might not slide off my face like the miracle balm. No such luck. This did nothing for the appearance of my skin and just made it look like a hot mess later - no hot flash needed. I would rather just wear Glow Screen, Face Glaze or Hollywood Flawless Filter alone. Hard pass on this one.
Yep, sorry you spent the money on them and they didn't work out. They're definitely very unique, and I could see the textures being polarizing and not working for everyone.
43 but I've always been normal to dry and everything is dryer at 43 so I thought about trying this out but I think I'll just stick with my usual routine of serum, moisturizer/sunscreen, liquid foundation or a powder foundation, mascara, maybe eyeshadows/blush, and a lip.
This hairstyle suits you so well. Super cute for summer. Now I'm going to have to try it like this with the braid much further back instead of like a headband like usual
I bought it and LOVED it! I am 35 y/o with combo skin with a significantly dry side of cheeks and extremely (EXTREMELY) oily in my T-Zone and chin. I've slept in this stuff and woke up still looking fantastic. No breakouts; it just looks like me but perfected. I agree that it doesn't _feel_ like you're wearing makeup. More like a heavier face lotion. I was underwhelmed by the miracle balm; it felt WAYYYYY too heavy. I also got the new face oil, a face pencil, and one of the eyeshadows. Love the face pencil to add some coverage. The eyeshadow was...nice, but nothing special. I REALLY want the mascara, but it is consistently out of stock. I'll be returning the miracle balm and perhaps the eyeshadow. My favorite part is that this line feels like a tool-optional line. Some people hate that, but I'm OCD and use a clean scooper for everything in a tub and then sanitize any makeup that touches my face. I love this makeup aesthetic for the spring/summer. We'll see how I feel in the fall. I'm so glad YTers under 40 are reviewing this!
Hi, I think the makeup looks fabulous on camera! How did it wear? We can’t get Jones Road in the EU yet and I’m curious about the brand. I’m not sure though and a wear test would be much appreciated!
I picked up the lab sample of Rituel de Fille's new foundation type product on the same day that I bought the new Jones Road foundation. The RDF is similar to the Kosas tinted face oil, except for some reason I like the RDF one a lot better and actually really want to wear it. Hopefully they will come out with the permanent release of it soon. I wasn't nearly as enthusiastic about the Jones Road one, in part because it made my face feel a little itchy (maybe from the essential oils in it?), but just in general. Good for her in terms of giving it a try though. I do love the Jones Road face pencils and eyebrow pencils, and also the lip/cheek sticks are pretty good.
I'm wearing mine for the first time today, too. I do think I got a slightly too yellow shade but it's 3 drops...it doesn't really matter. I also got some gorgeous new blushes. Can't wait to share, and I'm glad y'all are liking it, too!
@@kackie What shade did you get? I got both Nix and Galatea and Nix was perfect for me…Galatea was too dark and definitely too warm-toned for my more neutral leaning *slightly* warm complexion. I absolutely love all of their blushes and have an embarrassing number of them. I’m SO chuffed to see which ones you picked out!!!
i have super dry skin that's only exacerbated by living in a dry climate, i bought this foundation a month ago and WOOOOWWWW it's been a godsend! first foundation/concealer i've EVER tried that doesn't cling to my dry patches/overaccentuate texture by the end of the day. i can wear as little or as much as i want, and if i need more coverage, i add in a little of a different concealer (considering picking up the face pencil, though.) also, since my skin is staying moisturized, it's significantly cut down on dryness-induced breakouts. my skin hasn't looked this great in i don't know how long. i'm obsessed. if your skin type is similar to mine, i can't recommend this product enough!!!
Great you’re writing about this. People who don’t have super dry skin have a hard time understanding how hard it is to find a foundation that works and, most of all, that looks good. I just ordered.
The foundation is very moisturizing, which is just what i need at 56:) i am definitely the target audience:) *i feel i want to put some in a small container to carry with me. Maybe a contact lens case? There is a huge amount of product, which is cool. I have to almost rub it into my skin like a moisturizer, and just very small amount. Feels good on my sensitive skin:)
I usually don't watch your brand reviews unless of course i want to buy something specific but thats very rare. I have been super interested in jones road and you actually saved me some money. I have super oily, acne filled, pregnant skin and I'm convinced this would be awful for me so thank you!
You’ve got me so interested in Salt NY but I’m also so curious about this Jones Road balm, Wayne Goss’ balm, and Monika Blunder’s Blunder Cover. I love the idea of all of them. For the ones you do have, what is the difference between them? They seem similar to me - no makeup makeup look, easy to apply, flexible coverage. I like how you said, “grown-up Glossier.”
As a 60 year old I love the Bobby brown formulas - I need the moisture of the WTF and the sheerness of the miracle bombs - so hydrating! I can see it might not work for 20-30 years olds - but just you wait!! Your turn will come :)
You always know how to make any look work!!! You look naturally beautiful with this makeup look today! Will you be trying the new Wayne Goss Luxury cream foundation? I would love to hear your opinion. 💗
Exactly! Older faces, as Bobbi has said, can look flat and that’s when something needs to come in and lighten everything up and make everything look better.
I have the miracle balm and definitely agree on that... but I love the lipgloss (lightly minty and not sticky) and I love Just a Sec in pewter for a subtle easy eye look!
I tried the powder eyeshadows from Jones Road and was very underwhelmed. The pencil looks interesting. Seems like there are enough of these skin tinty/balm things to do another roundup of the best and worst this summer!
I love grease, if that's what you want to call it, on my skin because I have very dry skin. The oils and butters plump the skin. Oils and butters are best applied on wet skin. I must try Bobbie's miracle balm.
Loveeeed this video. I think this foundation is right up my alley as someone who has zero brush technique and applies everything with my fingers! LOL May have to finally cave and place an order to try out Jones Road beauty!!
I absolutely love the foundation. I'm still getting use to the balms. The highlighter is nice. I just ordered some of the bronzer. We will see hehe I love your gold jewelry 💖
Hey! Great video ♥️ Made me subscribe because I love your energy! Do you think this foundation would be good for people with combo skin/slightly oily t-zones??
Well I tried the Jones Riad Miracle Balm and it wasn't!!..$38 each, I purchased 2 shades and can't find anyone to pass it on to. The "smell" was very off putting and strong to me and it maintained a stickiness to it that never set down. My hair was long so my hair was sticking to my face where the Miracle Balm had been applied and I was glad I didn't choose to wear a fragrance as it would have competed with the smell of the Balm. So now listening to you and having skin towards the oiler side, I think I will pass on the WTF as I won't add $44 to the stack of the 2 Miracle Balms that I wasted my $ on!!
I know you are already sold on the Blonzers but I just picked up Kiss of Rose and am already trying to move my budget around to buy the other two colors. I like the idea of the pencil concealer. I am currently using the NYX Bare With Me, which does look great. The issue I have with it, is that it is a pump dispenser which is really messy.
I just love your alter egos like the dystopian cowgirl fortune teller and INTRODUCING the tiki pirate!! Not only great make up reviews but entertainment value-LOLs!!!
Your skin looks BEAUTIFUL with this wtfoundation. I'm using it now and its OKAYYYYyyYYyYyy. I mean. I like how it looks on me but I don't like how it feels sticky. I patted it basically OFF with a papertowel LOL and Now i'm ok with it. ehhh Idk if i will use this very often.
I find jones road really tricky to figure out - on one hand I love the aesthetic of the whole brand but also performance wise nothing feels particularly special? And for many $$$? I can get the “grownup glossier” vibe but I feel glossier is a little more cohesive maybe? Idk 😂
I love their miracle balms to be honest!! I have three and Flushed is gorgeous. I do have super super dry skin though. I love the face pencil, only concealer that doesn't settle in lines for me. The only product I haven't liked was one of their sparkly eyeshadows. Way too much fallout.
I have not been the greatest physically or mentally lately but I just needed some Kackie to help me get back on the sunny side of life! And makeup. Always makeup. Now if we could just get certain products back in stock :( oh well
we're in total agreement. I got a refund for the cheek and lip tint and that greasy balm mess. I love WTF and the concealer sticks. I said grown up glossier too! I am interested in the mascara...maybe one day. I do have very dry skin, and the jones road peeps told me not to wear skincare underneath, which I don't love because I like my own skincare, but it works great on me. they also told me I could use setting powder under eyes and over foundation, so you were right to do that! anyway, approaching 40, I like it, especially as someone who rarely wears makeup anymore.
I love the pencils but have better luck when i warm it up on top of my hand first and it covered much better for me. And love those lip and cheek sticks too- underrated i think!
I def prefer the face pencils (I use 4 and 7) to the WTF. WTF is a bit sticky but still for someone who doesn't wear makeup, I'm happy with it but will stick with the pencils when WTF runs out. (also wish they'd not scented the WTF)
I think this looks stunning on you this seems like it would be what I need for my skin which is just dry and dull and I’m pushing 50. How do you think this would wear with a mask? I work in healthcare so I don’t want something that would look crazy because it comes off or moves around.
Okay I need some more info about this bird. I’m a big birdwatcher and I am determined to find out what bird this is, is it high pitched and smooth or raspy?
@@baileydubs I love this! I'm not a bird watcher at all, just think they're pretty & sweet. But my grandma is an amateur (here in Ohio), so I'm interested to know what you find out! Maybe I could teach her something. Good luck! 😊
I know this video is way old but I watch my favorite TH-camrs while I work and oh my god can I relate to your intro... I gave birth to my second 9 months ago and the hair loss was depressing! It didn't happen with my first pregnancy so I wasn't expecting it but Jesus... I eventually decided to chop off over a foot of hair because losing that much volume made it look NASTY! Lol. The things we endure for our children. Anyway sending love. :)
What shade is the What the Foundation? I know you mentioned it being the lightest shade but I know she has added some shades so I wanted to ask you. You & I are very close in complexion.
I’m 40 and perimenopause is doing *unkind* things to my skin. It’s a dry wasteland after being oily/combo my whole life. I didn’t like Miracle Balm when I tried it a couple years ago, but damn if it isn’t my best friend now. WTFoundation is the only base that doesn’t make my dry patches look like scales after a few hours, and I have to use it on top of my normal moisturizers AND top it with miracle balm if I want to look good all day. So I’m just saying… maybe retry Miracle Balm if you hit perimenopause/menopause and decreased estrogen makes your skin dry up. I hated it and couldn’t figure out how BB went so wrong, but I get it now. She *really* means it when she says this is for dry and mature skin.
I actually love Miracle Balm in Tawny all winter long on my pale skin (I have similar complexion to yours)... I apply it over my tinted moisturizer and it is basically slugging.. it sits pretty, give me beautiful healthy glow and keeps my skin nourished during the dry season... it doesnt really dry down but it doesnt slide around either... and I dont really use it in the summer... Im really curious to try the foundation tho but was waiting for reviews... I also have a face pencil but I wanna try a lighter color bc I got it in light with neutral undertone but it looks too yellow on me, even tho I have neutral undertone... so u r correct that the undertones on these products are confusing... I also tried all eye shadows and they are all underwhelming... like the Best Eyeshadow is very good quality, blends well, but too subtle... just too subtle.. the Just a Sec has fun and interesting texture but still comes out too subtle on the eyes no matter how much I layer it... like I look flat in them... and I have 3 Sparkle Washes and they are gorgeous in the packaging but also really dull on the eyes... they are like very understated, barely there sparkle but if I layer them, they crumble and look dry... they are only really pretty when I just apply them in one swipe... but then they dry down and the sparkles are not so sparkly, I guess true to their name, a very light wash of sparkle... but there is something that keeps drawing me to Jones Road's aesthetics that makes me check their product releases even tho besides the miracle balm and face pencil, Im not impressed with anything else... i might try the lip and cheek stick in Tawny tho since I love the balm in that color so much...
If you like those pencils I bet you'll like the Cheekbone Beauty complexion pencils too! These sound really similar to the cheekbone ones and I love the Cheekbone ones for under eye and spot camo.
So glad you did this video! I’ve been SO CLOSE to placing an order since this foundation came out. Also wanting to try basically everything else you reviewed, so this was very timely :)
@@CavalierConfessional foundation was a no for me… I need more coverage and less dew (though the lightest color is PERFECT for me so it stinks that the formula isn’t great). Face pencil I liked for when you just want a touch of concealer. A little on the stiff side. Blush stick was eh, not super easy to work with but I bought it bc the colors stood out to me so I may use it. The potted eyeshadow is nice, I like it but not as much as some others like Phytosurgence and Em. It’s sparkly but not overwhelming pigment. It’s not a cream, it’s a dense powder in a pot.
There’s tons of Monse, Ulla Johnson, and other brands that make me think of you on ThredUp. I see things all the time and wish I could just telepathically send you the links
I think u using the miracle balm to slick down ur cowlick in the last video sums up this brand 😂. As an oily skin person Bobbi Brown the original and her new line doesn’t feel like it caters for me. That being said everyone seems to like the concealer.
I just discovered your channel and I'm really enjoying watching!! You're comments about birbs make me laugh- that's what i call them when my cats see the birds! As far as the bird call you want to know- there's an app called Merlin that can help tell you what birds you're hearing!
I have bought my salt ny and have no need for Jones Rd. Kackie I pick my scalp. How do I stop? Why do I do it. Anyone? I know it feels like it has something to do with anxiety. Not sure if I do it because I am anxious or it makes me anxious perhaps both. I do have an issues with picking scabs but I used to self injure also. Am I alone?
You’re not alone, Erinn! I echo Kackie’s question: what kind of access to therapy do you have? Also, I know Reddit has a bad reputation sometimes, but when it comes to mental health the communities kind of rock - both for peer support and providing resources (books, therapy sources, offline support groups). So maybe check that out.
Definitely not alone. I picked my hair and scabs a lot when I was going through a stressful time. In my situation, I was also very lonely. It basically tapered off on its own once I finally found some decent friends whenever I needed to talk about what was going on. Part of the catalyst was also some other scalp health issues like not cleansing thoroughly and often enough or always putting a lot of ponytail tension in the same areas. With the past several years being all about dry shampoo and sulfate free products, I think a lot of us have more irritated scalps than we realize.
MIGHT BE A LITTLE GREASY- Under statement of the century. I have the driest skin ever and can't stand how greasy this is..I like a miracle balm a little better in the bronze color. But these products just don't settle down at all and I feel like I can't put my head on a pillow or anything. On the other hand, it didn't break me out at all and after I take it off my skin actually feels very moisturozed. But I would absolutely have to powder this with a translucent powder so that it doesn't move around. But then I'm putting more stuff on my skin. My favorite item is the face pencil. But it's so pricey and you can get the same.effect from a drug store face pencil concealer stick 💁♀️ I wanted to like these things and I'll try other stuff but it's gonna be a struggle to use all these things
Kackie were you an English major in college? You find new ways to say things in every video i never would have thought of. You have a unique way with words that is so cool
I hadn't cut my hair for 28 months and when I finally did in October it was a blunt medium bob below my chin. YET, I HAVE BANGS! hair regrowth is such bs. I have baby hair and bangs but i still have the bald spots at my temples. so annoying.
Okay, I appreciated this video so much(and you're super engaging) but I think I may be even more confused than before. I have a horrible time with foundation, with it just sitting on top of my skin visually. And I have tried so many. (and they are soo expensive) I have dry skin and love a no make-up look. But you scared me a little bit with the slugging comment. I have eczema (not on my face) and I can't stand the way Aquaphor and Vaseline feel on my skin-it feels like my skin is suffocating. Am I going to get that feeling on my face? I hate that I can't try it before I buy it. 😐

Her mascara is probably the best I have ever owned. Now I am going to have to try this What The Foundation!
Yeah that mascara is a masterpiece if you're not a removal brat like me.
love how you said its like grown up glossier! could not have been more a true statement!!!

Good for her in terms of giving it a try though. I do love the Jones Road face pencils and eyebrow pencils, and also the lip/cheek sticks are pretty good.
Love love LOVE the new RdF foundation!!! I’ve been wearing it every day since it arrived.
I'm wearing mine for the first time today, too. I do think I got a slightly too yellow shade but it's 3 drops...it doesn't really matter. I also got some gorgeous new blushes. Can't wait to share, and I'm glad y'all are liking it, too!
@@kackie What shade did you get? I got both Nix and Galatea and Nix was perfect for me…Galatea was too dark and definitely too warm-toned for my more neutral leaning *slightly* warm complexion. I absolutely love all of their blushes and have an embarrassing number of them. I’m SO chuffed to see which ones you picked out!!!
I just received my Jones Road order today. I have very dry skin, so this is perfect for me.
i have super dry skin that's only exacerbated by living in a dry climate, i bought this foundation a month ago and WOOOOWWWW it's been a godsend! first foundation/concealer i've EVER tried that doesn't cling to my dry patches/overaccentuate texture by the end of the day. i can wear as little or as much as i want, and if i need more coverage, i add in a little of a different concealer (considering picking up the face pencil, though.) also, since my skin is staying moisturized, it's significantly cut down on dryness-induced breakouts. my skin hasn't looked this great in i don't know how long. i'm obsessed. if your skin type is similar to mine, i can't recommend this product enough!!!
Great you’re writing about this. People who don’t have super dry skin have a hard time understanding how hard it is to find a foundation that works and, most of all, that looks good. I just ordered.
As a combo skinned gal… I know this product is not for me but I still always appreciate your reviews 🙌🏼
The foundation is very moisturizing, which is just what i need at 56:) i am definitely the target audience:) *i feel i want to put some in a small container to carry with me. Maybe a contact lens case? There is a huge amount of product, which is cool. I have to almost rub it into my skin like a moisturizer, and just very small amount. Feels good on my sensitive skin:)
I usually don't watch your brand reviews unless of course i want to buy something specific but thats very rare. I have been super interested in jones road and you actually saved me some money. I have super oily, acne filled, pregnant skin and I'm convinced this would be awful for me so thank you!
You’ve got me so interested in Salt NY but I’m also so curious about this Jones Road balm, Wayne Goss’ balm, and Monika Blunder’s Blunder Cover. I love the idea of all of them. For the ones you do have, what is the difference between them? They seem similar to me - no makeup makeup look, easy to apply, flexible coverage. I like how you said, “grown-up Glossier.”
Honestly please open your window in every single video going forward, thank you ❤️
As a 60 year old I love the Bobby brown formulas - I need the moisture of the WTF and the sheerness of the miracle bombs - so hydrating! I can see it might not work for 20-30 years olds - but just you wait!! Your turn will come :)
You always know how to make any look work!!! You look naturally beautiful with this makeup look today! Will you be trying the new Wayne Goss Luxury cream foundation? I would love to hear your opinion. 💗
I don't always want pigment. Sometimes I just want better texture and a little coverage
Exactly! Older faces, as Bobbi has said, can look flat and that’s when something needs to come in and lighten everything up and make everything look better.
So glad you posted this video. Was close to trying out the foundation. But know I know it would not suit me at all. I might try the pencils. 👍
I have the miracle balm and definitely agree on that... but I love the lipgloss (lightly minty and not sticky) and I love Just a Sec in pewter for a subtle easy eye look!
I have Just A Sec and it is glitter fallout everywhere! What's your secret?!
I tried the powder eyeshadows from Jones Road and was very underwhelmed. The pencil looks interesting. Seems like there are enough of these skin tinty/balm things to do another roundup of the best and worst this summer!
+1 to a balm foundation roundup.
I love grease, if that's what you want to call it, on my skin because I have very dry skin. The oils and butters plump the skin. Oils and butters are best applied on wet skin. I must try Bobbie's miracle balm.
You have seriously become my go to whenever I am on the fence about picking up new product.
Loveeeed this video. I think this foundation is right up my alley as someone who has zero brush technique and applies everything with my fingers! LOL May have to finally cave and place an order to try out Jones Road beauty!!
I absolutely love the foundation. I'm still getting use to the balms. The highlighter is nice. I just ordered some of the bronzer. We will see hehe I love your gold jewelry 💖
Always a entertain when watching your videos.You’re so cute with that braid and this “pirate girl” look,please give us more braid-y Kackie look😍💜
Hey! Great video ♥️ Made me subscribe because I love your energy! Do you think this foundation would be good for people with combo skin/slightly oily t-zones??
The Bird: a common Song Sparrow, with a song resembling Beethoven's Symphony No. 5. 🎶
Well I tried the Jones Riad Miracle Balm and it wasn't!!..$38 each, I purchased 2 shades and can't find anyone to pass it on to. The "smell" was very off putting and strong to me and it maintained a stickiness to it that never set down. My hair was long so my hair was sticking to my face where the Miracle Balm had been applied and I was glad I didn't choose to wear a fragrance as it would have competed with the smell of the Balm. So now listening to you and having skin towards the oiler side, I think I will pass on the WTF as I won't add $44 to the stack of the 2 Miracle Balms that I wasted my $ on!!
I know you are already sold on the Blonzers but I just picked up Kiss of Rose and am already trying to move my budget around to buy the other two colors.
I like the idea of the pencil concealer. I am currently using the NYX Bare With Me, which does look great. The issue I have with it, is that it is a pump dispenser which is really messy.
I just love your alter egos like the dystopian cowgirl fortune teller and INTRODUCING the tiki pirate!!
Not only great make up reviews but entertainment value-LOLs!!!
Your skin looks BEAUTIFUL with this wtfoundation. I'm using it now and its OKAYYYYyyYYyYyy. I mean. I like how it looks on me but I don't like how it feels sticky. I patted it basically OFF with a papertowel LOL and Now i'm ok with it. ehhh Idk if i will use this very often.
I find jones road really tricky to figure out - on one hand I love the aesthetic of the whole brand but also performance wise nothing feels particularly special? And for many $$$? I can get the “grownup glossier” vibe but I feel glossier is a little more cohesive maybe? Idk 😂
It looks like real model make-up! Totally achievable, fool proof, model make-up, at home.
I love their miracle balms to be honest!! I have three and Flushed is gorgeous. I do have super super dry skin though. I love the face pencil, only concealer that doesn't settle in lines for me. The only product I haven't liked was one of their sparkly eyeshadows. Way too much fallout.
I agree. I love my miracle balms. I use it very sparingly, particularly when my skin is super dry.
I have not been the greatest physically or mentally lately but I just needed some Kackie to help me get back on the sunny side of life! And makeup. Always makeup. Now if we could just get certain products back in stock :( oh well
we're in total agreement. I got a refund for the cheek and lip tint and that greasy balm mess. I love WTF and the concealer sticks. I said grown up glossier too! I am interested in the mascara...maybe one day. I do have very dry skin, and the jones road peeps told me not to wear skincare underneath, which I don't love because I like my own skincare, but it works great on me. they also told me I could use setting powder under eyes and over foundation, so you were right to do that! anyway, approaching 40, I like it, especially as someone who rarely wears makeup anymore.
My youngest is 10 months and I am living that hair regrowth life 👍
Curious of your opinion on other newly released products-the Dynessa Myricks yummy skin balm/powder!
Yup, bought it. Talked about it some on my IG stories already but it's coming!
I love the pencils but have better luck when i warm it up on top of my hand first and it covered much better for me. And love those lip and cheek sticks too- underrated i think!
Kackie, I LOVE your videos. Why is *birbs* so freaking hilarious 😂
I def prefer the face pencils (I use 4 and 7) to the WTF. WTF is a bit sticky but still for someone who doesn't wear makeup, I'm happy with it but will stick with the pencils when WTF runs out. (also wish they'd not scented the WTF)
I have been coveting that green ring you have for ages. May I ask where it’s from?
I think this looks stunning on you this seems like it would be what I need for my skin which is just dry and dull and I’m pushing 50. How do you think this would wear with a mask? I work in healthcare so I don’t want something that would look crazy because it comes off or moves around.
I think it's more of a tinted oil. Maybelline green edition tinted oil is a drugstore dupe imo. I love ❤️ the dupe
I’m seeing more Ms. Frizzle than Tiki Pirate. I love it!
Okay I need some more info about this bird. I’m a big birdwatcher and I am determined to find out what bird this is, is it high pitched and smooth or raspy?
High pitched and smooth
@@kackie I’m on it, having a side bar with my dad to figure this out!
@@baileydubs I love this! I'm not a bird watcher at all, just think they're pretty & sweet. But my grandma is an amateur (here in Ohio), so I'm interested to know what you find out! Maybe I could teach her something. Good luck! 😊
@@kackie look up a Carolina wren song! Not EXACTLY what you said but could be what you are hearing!
I'm so invested in this bird now.
I know this video is way old but I watch my favorite TH-camrs while I work and oh my god can I relate to your intro...
I gave birth to my second 9 months ago and the hair loss was depressing! It didn't happen with my first pregnancy so I wasn't expecting it but Jesus... I eventually decided to chop off over a foot of hair because losing that much volume made it look NASTY! Lol. The things we endure for our children.
Anyway sending love. :)
Thank you for your honesty!
What shade is the What the Foundation? I know you mentioned it being the lightest shade but I know she has added some shades so I wanted to ask you. You & I are very close in complexion.
I’m 40 and perimenopause is doing *unkind* things to my skin. It’s a dry wasteland after being oily/combo my whole life. I didn’t like Miracle Balm when I tried it a couple years ago, but damn if it isn’t my best friend now. WTFoundation is the only base that doesn’t make my dry patches look like scales after a few hours, and I have to use it on top of my normal moisturizers AND top it with miracle balm if I want to look good all day.
So I’m just saying… maybe retry Miracle Balm if you hit perimenopause/menopause and decreased estrogen makes your skin dry up. I hated it and couldn’t figure out how BB went so wrong, but I get it now. She *really* means it when she says this is for dry and mature skin.
I actually love Miracle Balm in Tawny all winter long on my pale skin (I have similar complexion to yours)... I apply it over my tinted moisturizer and it is basically slugging.. it sits pretty, give me beautiful healthy glow and keeps my skin nourished during the dry season... it doesnt really dry down but it doesnt slide around either... and I dont really use it in the summer... Im really curious to try the foundation tho but was waiting for reviews... I also have a face pencil but I wanna try a lighter color bc I got it in light with neutral undertone but it looks too yellow on me, even tho I have neutral undertone... so u r correct that the undertones on these products are confusing... I also tried all eye shadows and they are all underwhelming... like the Best Eyeshadow is very good quality, blends well, but too subtle... just too subtle.. the Just a Sec has fun and interesting texture but still comes out too subtle on the eyes no matter how much I layer it... like I look flat in them... and I have 3 Sparkle Washes and they are gorgeous in the packaging but also really dull on the eyes... they are like very understated, barely there sparkle but if I layer them, they crumble and look dry... they are only really pretty when I just apply them in one swipe... but then they dry down and the sparkles are not so sparkly, I guess true to their name, a very light wash of sparkle... but there is something that keeps drawing me to Jones Road's aesthetics that makes me check their product releases even tho besides the miracle balm and face pencil, Im not impressed with anything else... i might try the lip and cheek stick in Tawny tho since I love the balm in that color so much...
Which tinted moisturizer do you use?
If you like those pencils I bet you'll like the Cheekbone Beauty complexion pencils too! These sound really similar to the cheekbone ones and I love the Cheekbone ones for under eye and spot camo.
So glad you did this video! I’ve been SO CLOSE to placing an order since this foundation came out. Also wanting to try basically everything else you reviewed, so this was very timely :)
I am in the same place-items are in my cart. Did you buy? And did you like it?
@@CavalierConfessional foundation was a no for me… I need more coverage and less dew (though the lightest color is PERFECT for me so it stinks that the formula isn’t great).
Face pencil I liked for when you just want a touch of concealer. A little on the stiff side.
Blush stick was eh, not super easy to work with but I bought it bc the colors stood out to me so I may use it.
The potted eyeshadow is nice, I like it but not as much as some others like Phytosurgence and Em. It’s sparkly but not overwhelming pigment. It’s not a cream, it’s a dense powder in a pot.
This look is stunning on you 😍
How does the texture of the foundation compare to something like sneaky balm?
I was wondering the same thing!
It's much more "there" than sneaky balm...like, the difference between a light cream moisturizer and a glossier after baume
I really wanna hit up Salt Cosmetics....hard
There’s tons of Monse, Ulla Johnson, and other brands that make me think of you on ThredUp. I see things all the time and wish I could just telepathically send you the links
Can you wear SPF under/over it ???
I think u using the miracle balm to slick down ur cowlick in the last video sums up this brand 😂. As an oily skin person Bobbi Brown the original and her new line doesn’t feel like it caters for me. That being said everyone seems to like the concealer.
I just discovered your channel and I'm really enjoying watching!!
You're comments about birbs make me laugh- that's what i call them when my cats see the birds! As far as the bird call you want to know- there's an app called Merlin that can help tell you what birds you're hearing!
It’s interesting that you think this is sheer compared to salt new york. The eye look was the perfect summer look
I got the same shade. I have very dry skin. The shade was not good for me. I might try the clear for some glow or moisture at night.
I typically don’t buy high end makeup, but I really dig this aesthetic. My interest is piqued.
“A vibe I’ve never chased down before!!” 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
Personally, I liked the blush in your make-up look best. Do you think it's worth the money? What formulation/product would you compare it to?
I have bought my salt ny and have no need for Jones Rd. Kackie I pick my scalp. How do I stop? Why do I do it. Anyone? I know it feels like it has something to do with anxiety. Not sure if I do it because I am anxious or it makes me anxious perhaps both. I do have an issues with picking scabs but I used to self injure also. Am I alone?
Ooh I'm so sorry. I mean do you have access to therapy or online groups?
You’re not alone, Erinn! I echo Kackie’s question: what kind of access to therapy do you have? Also, I know Reddit has a bad reputation sometimes, but when it comes to mental health the communities kind of rock - both for peer support and providing resources (books, therapy sources, offline support groups). So maybe check that out.
Definitely not alone. I picked my hair and scabs a lot when I was going through a stressful time. In my situation, I was also very lonely. It basically tapered off on its own once I finally found some decent friends whenever I needed to talk about what was going on.
Part of the catalyst was also some other scalp health issues like not cleansing thoroughly and often enough or always putting a lot of ponytail tension in the same areas. With the past several years being all about dry shampoo and sulfate free products, I think a lot of us have more irritated scalps than we realize.
I hope they add a fairer shade! I'm pretty sure that that lighest shade is too dark for me!
Yeah, it's a weird shade range with lots of gaps. Porcelain would be a bit too dark and too pink for me.
MIGHT BE A LITTLE GREASY- Under statement of the century. I have the driest skin ever and can't stand how greasy this is..I like a miracle balm a little better in the bronze color. But these products just don't settle down at all and I feel like I can't put my head on a pillow or anything. On the other hand, it didn't break me out at all and after I take it off my skin actually feels very moisturozed. But I would absolutely have to powder this with a translucent powder so that it doesn't move around. But then I'm putting more stuff on my skin. My favorite item is the face pencil. But it's so pricey and you can get the same.effect from a drug store face pencil concealer stick 💁♀️ I wanted to like these things and I'll try other stuff but it's gonna be a struggle to use all these things
My pores don’t do well with wax applied over them. I wish Bobbi Brown would come out with skin products that weren’t just for dry dry skin.
Kackie were you an English major in college? You find new ways to say things in every video i never would have thought of. You have a unique way with words that is so cool
I hadn't cut my hair for 28 months and when I finally did in October it was a blunt medium bob below my chin. YET, I HAVE BANGS!
hair regrowth is such bs. I have baby hair and bangs but i still have the bald spots at my temples. so annoying.
I need a comparison of this, with the new Wayne Gods foundation, and the sneaky balm.
Do you like What the Foudnation or Kosas tinted oil better?
Okay, I appreciated this video so much(and you're super engaging) but I think I may be even more confused than before. I have a horrible time with foundation, with it just sitting on top of my skin visually. And I have tried so many. (and they are soo expensive) I have dry skin and love a no make-up look. But you scared me a little bit with the slugging comment. I have eczema (not on my face) and I can't stand the way Aquaphor and Vaseline feel on my skin-it feels like my skin is suffocating. Am I going to get that feeling on my face? I hate that I can't try it before I buy it. 😐
What is the kosas powder please?
I just tried WTF for the first time and it feels super sticky. Not sure how I feel about that.
What a beautiful face of makeup, I can feel my skin clogging just from watching 😜
I love this foundation!!!
Thank you for the video. What color do you wear in MAC foundation? Just wondering what color to get in WTF. In NAC I am NW15.
