Wow. The Natasha Denona looked the best of them all which I would not have expected and then I saw the Fenty. The last two foundations looked spot on, on you. I would love if your mom tried them all and you could give us a report on that.
Just in case anyone is interested! Robert Welsh just did a tutorial on how to apply the TirTir cushion foundation - it was really good - especially as he gave great tips on how to use the sponge it comes with and how to apply it ... just thought I would put it out there!! Personally I think I'll pass on this one for the time being as I never wear full coverage foundation but I could see how peeps my want more coverage for an event or something. xxx
@@samc5877 Gemma's reviews are CLASS, always in-depth and honest. I love that if something doesn't suit her skin she will always recommend it for other skin-types (if the product is good!!)
I came to stay the same thing! I bought the Tir Tir after a few friends recommended it. After watching a few how to videos I absolutely love this! I do not use any full coverage foundations so I was really concerned but I got a solid light coverage the first time I used it thanks to the videos. The second day I did the same but tapped a touch more on a few problem areas and it looked incredible! I received so many compliments on my skin from friends, family and co-workers on those days it really made me feel so great! I have dry skin with texture and dry spots and it performed beautifully all day. The foundation did not transfer at all…not even on the mask I had to wear in the hospital to visit a friend. I was amazed.
I had never used a cushion foundation before I purchased the TIRTIR Mask Fit Red Cushion Foundation (in 15C). I love it 🥰 It doesn't oxidize on me, which is nice since so many foundations do. I always use a primer (which may help with that). I wore it to our son's graduation last week. Surprisingly, it lasted ALL DAY. We had to stand outside in the heat and humidity for quite some time, waiting for the venue doors to to open and you would never have known it by the way this foundation STAYED PUT. Now, as a "lady of a certain age", I find a matte finish just looks better on my skin. So, I purchased the _matte_ version in the pink compact (in 17C Porcelain). It's LOVELY! One MASSIVE drawback though is it only comes in THREE shades, essentially: very fair, light, and less light 😂
I liked the Fenty on you looked really lovely. I am currently using the Revlon Serum Tint and loving it but I am mid 60's & find the texture so nice for my skin & it looks good all day. Liked the suggestion someone made about trying the foundations on your mum😁
I love the Fenty foundation. I bought it while I was travelling in the States and it looked so nice in all climates. I loved that I could sheer it out or build it up depending on what I was doing.
Thanks Gemma. Great foundation roundup, as usual. I have been eyeing the ND powder but may wait until warmer weather returns here (going into winter here in Australia). It’s also very expensive… The FENTY one sounds just right for me too, I love Fenty complexion products so I’m not surprised it’s good.
I’m 53, combo skin & absolutely loving the ND powder foundation, I have a very strict skincare regime, serum, oil & moisturiser 😂 & apply it with a large velour puff, don’t like a full coverage foundation, so this is perfect & having just returned from Budapest it’s been ideal for travel , quick, easy, love it 🥰
THANK YOU Jemma! Great video. I have, and love, the ND powder foundation. But that being said, I am going from this video straight to Sephora on line to order the Fenty!
I just got the TirTir. Wearing it today for the first time! It’s amazing 🙌🏽! And I’m very particular too! I’ve worked out in it so far, and ran errands out in the heat all day. Ate greasy cheeseburgers too.
I prefer a medium to light coverage so the trick I've found with the Tir Tir is if I can feel it going on, I'm using too much. I also go in with a foundation brush immediately after application to blend out and diffuse. As someone old and dry, it's definitely not my favourite, but it is workable with a light hand.
Great comparison. I am a Lisa Eldridge Seamless Skin fan because that one disguises my lines. But if I had lovely smooth skin like yours Gemma, I think I would have a lot more choice and would probably have more fun with makeup. I really enjoy your enthusiastic approach and ability to pass on your knowledge, even if I may never buy the products.
I brought tritri cushion foundation 21N, it darken 2 shades, brought 17N in tritri cushion, it goes on very light but give it an hour and looks great. Get a mini to try.
I love my MAC Studio fix powder plus foundation, I've used it for years and years on it's own. I just sprits the powder look away with a setting spray. However, I really liked how the ND looked, so I might have to give that a try.
Great Foundation Video Gemma. I too really thought Fenty Foundation looked the best. I just watched another review on the Revlon Tint. It is supposed to be great for us dry skinned girls. Thank you for brining us a great 5 foundation wear test.
@@melt2947 I make sure that my skin is prepped and that my moisturizer has had time to sink in. On that day I used Saint Jane pore smoothing spf 30 cream as my sunscreen and primer. I then sprayed ELF power grip Dewy setting spray - wait to dry. Applied the foundation and sprayed ELF Power grip dewy setting spray. Let it dry. Apply the rest of my face and powder as needed. then sprayed the Stay All Night micro-fine setting mist by ELF. I finished off with what I started with (because I like the glow) the D’alba first spry serum. I’ve heard several creators (that are MUAs) say the key to keeping your makeup on is to use the setting spray in layers, not just at the end. Hope this helps.
I got shade selection anxiety with the ND so I still haven’t ordered it (I HATE returning barely used products for that reason, especially by mail). Still debating. 😅
Natasha has shown a video where she advises you 'pat' the product in, unlike bare minerals where you swirl and Jane iredale, where you swipe. Of course we're all find what works for us but I thought I'd just say 🤔
You don't have to swirl Bareminerals Bare Pro. It comes with its own sponge. All powder foundations can be applied with a brush. Manufacturer instructions don't work best on everyone.
Swirl with the mineral 'powder' foundation worked best on me @@LPno.9As a retired beauty therapist we worked with a number of products. The heat of our own skin can work for or against certain brands and techniques
Loved this video Gemma. I have just ordered the Fenty foundation and am excited to try it. Just a thought Gemma but it would be great if you could list the products you are wearing in each video as I would be keen to know what concealer and mascara you are wearing in this video xx
I have my eye on the Natasha Denona, but am concerned that it wouldn't last on my oily skin in Humid Texas. Do you think it would last a few hours? I can get oily after about an hour or two of wearing anything, lol.
I love the Tir Tir! I use the smallest amount and it stays put on my face all day. It does not transfer on me. My husband complimented me on my face the first time I wore it, that is saying something.
I loved it (21n) until it turned me orange. I exchanged it for one of the newer shades, 17N and I think the formula is different. It didn’t seem to adhere to my skin like the original one did. Shame. 🤷🏼♀️
I had seen the Natasha Denona one and was intrigued for summer wear- still quite expensive though. When i was in London i got a sample of the Sisley £80 one you tested. I tried the sample two days running and then threw it out ( money saved)- it oxidized, it was drying and looked heavy and patchy even applied with a brush.
The Sisley has to be applied incredibly sparingly otherwise looks heavy very quickly. I can't say I found it drying, but everyone has different experiences xxx
Thanks for the reviews, Gemma. They're so helpful. I just saw Stephanie Marie review the TirTir and was thrilled that you reviewed it as well. As I am your shade twin, I wonder what shade you would choose if you were to repurchase. You look stunning... especially in the Fenty foundation. Please say hi and give Seth a hug from me. XXOO ❤️ ❤️
I have ordered the TirTir over a month ago....still waiting 🤷 My two favourite foundations at the moment are Madara and Sculpted by Aimee.....both in dewy ....very skin like and perfect for more mature and dry skin!
I would love some tips for applying the TirTir foundation. Twice I've used it and it's applied patchy, cakey, sunk into every wrinkle and showed every single pore on my nose. Ive watched influencers apply it, I've read up on cushion foundation application and nothing seems to work for me?
I'm interested in trying the TirTir. It's not bank-breaking if I don't like it. I'm your shade twin Gemma - would you still recommend that shade even though it oxidised? I've been waiting for you to do the ND Hy Glam 😂
I tried the Tirtir. The formula is INSANELY good. I got a shade that was too light and too yellow (15c). But the formula is so so good, I am going to order then next one up. As Gemma says, you do need to perfect your application technique. It also massively blurred any pores and texture. Literally GONE.
Hi Gemma, with the TirTir or any other high coverage, do you use concealer and setting powders with them? Have you tried Haus Labs Foundations? I would love a review on them.
Yeah!!! Natasha Denona is coming home with me!! Thank you so much for this video, because I wasn't 100% sure about it as I LOVE my Laura Gellar powder foundation. lol
Sorry for asking, but can you remind me of an affordable version of a blurring/setting powder please? You often recommend the expensive one and say powder is essential. New to powder I'm desperate for some help so not to get it wrong. It'll be used all over the face and maybe eyelids (to set before applying eyeshadow as per an old recommended technique by you)
If you would like a luxe feeling yet affordable powder that is talc free, try ELF Halo Glow loose powder! It is fabulous! Blurs and perfects without overly drying your skin out! Hope this helps! Xo
If you have texture, Halo glow powder magnifies it. I’m 52 and have tried a LOT of loose and pressed powders from the drugstore. I have yet to find one for mature/textured skin. I figure the splurge for a great powder is definitely worth it. I use the Nars, Huda or Prism Libre
So many, but I really like the Elf Halo Glow (although if you have lots of texture, this might not be great as it's a little radiant) also Coty Airspun loose powder (very fragrant though) and Maybelline Fit Me Loose Powder, RCMA No Colour Powder, Beauty Pie WonderFilter Loose Powder, MUA Pro Loose Setting Powder Mattifying Translucent and Vit Hit Vitamin Fix Blurring Setting Powder (but it's very brightening) Hope that helps x
I know what you mean about the Tom Ford but it's way better than cle de Peau on how it applies, can tell it's an high end foundation. It doesn't look heavy yet covers well. I'm also your shade twin so l didn't have issues with shade choice. It's a bit like doublewear but so much more smoothing.
Now I've seen your review, I've ordered the Tirtir to try. I HAAAATED the Tom Ford foundation. I found I could only get a half sensible application if i used a damp sponge. Even then, it still looked very dry/crusty around the nose and showed up pores something wicked (I do not have big pores). This still happened regardless of what I did or did not wear under it. It is very very twitchy. I would strongly advise anyone looking at the Tom Ford to buy the Louboutin instead. Half the price and far far better in every way.
@@weenettl bought it as l love matte long wearing blurring foundations. It's a great foundation the smoothing ability is great. I haven't found any foundation ever to work well every application they all are hit and miss including, Dior, Lancome, cle de peau, double wear, Givenchy, Sisley... None of them. Sisley was dreadful!
I saw another creator say the tir tir was supposed to be water AND sweat-proof. Has anyone found this to be correct? 😊 If not, does anyone have any tips to stop sweat breaking through foundation? 🙏
Hi Gemma. I was wondering if you reviewed or going to review the Delilah foundations? As i would love to hear your thoughts on the British cruelty free brand . ( pretty please . )xx❤
the fenty foundation- i had to over pay since i ordered it through a buyer.. but it just doesn't seem to work.. clings to dry pathces, or separates if i properly moisturize..can u please share what did u apply as a skincare?
I can see why the Fenty was your favourite, it looks stunning! ND also ok, but the TirTir didn’t look dewy at the end of the day so much as dripping in ghee! I didn’t see much of the TF - on account of fainting at the price 😂. Curious to see what the bare pro is all about, so off to see if you’ve got a video on it.
What are the pros of the bare minerals powder foundation and do you still prefer BM over the ND? I’ve been wanting a powder foundation for the hot summer months.
Wayne Goss raves about Nude by Nature mineral powder foundation. It's an Australian brand, cruelty free, natural etc. their range includes primer, lipstick, BB cream, makeup brushes ( great quality and reasonably priced especially when 40% off sale).
I like both foundations. The ND is lighter and less coverage and the BM is slightly heavier with more coverage but still looks like skin. Both wear for a similar amount of time. xxx
I’ve been waiting for the Revlon serum foundation review. I’ve tried the Revlon Illumination because it’s a dupe for the Chanel No. 1 but it isn’t close enough for me. I just can’t in my heart spend $70 for the Chanel even though it’s amazing on my dry mature skin. I just want something lighter that looks like skin. I’m going to now check it out!
Gemma, what did you prep your skin with before using the ND powder foundation? I have found it a bit finicky - it rolled terribly over 2 of my fav SPFs - mind you I did use the sponge it came with so it could be application issues. I have used it as a finishing powder and it works brilliantly to blur and 'meld' foundation - I am gonna try the brush again to apply it as a foundation. thanks a mill for this review, i was so pee-ed off initially because, for me, this was an expensive purchase, but I am definitely not giving up just yet, and I really appreciate this review. You are a STAR!! Thank you. x
Please can I ask if you’ve ever come across a company called Dcypher? I’m fed up with spending money on foundations and constantly getting the wrong shade so tempted to try this company xx
I bought the ND powder foundation in N2 after doing the shade match but it makes me look yellow and gets deeper as the day goes on. It also seems to cling to my dry areas and makes my wrinkles look even worse, so disappointed especially as it was so expensive.
Apparently I am the only one who gets only very light coverage from Tirtir. I have tried to apply it thick, as well as apply layers, but it does not cover my freckles, uneven pigmentation, dark spots, nothing.
Anyone else having issues checking out with Yesstyle? Apparently my address isn't accurate enough. I've put in everything including county, wont let me check out.

I apply much less of the TirTir than you did. It works well for me. It looks very natural-not a heavy coverage.
I saw another creator say the tir tir was supposed to be water AND sweat-proof. Has anyone found this to be correct? 😊 If not, does anyone have any tips to stop sweat breaking through foundation? 🙏
Hi Gemma. I was wondering if you reviewed or going to review the Delilah foundations? As i would love to hear your thoughts on the British cruelty free brand . ( pretty please . )xx❤
I haven't tried any of the Delilah range xxx
Please have your mom try out these foundations
The link to FENTY BEAUTY Soft'Lit Naturally Luminous Longwear Foundation (150) took me to Natasha Denona.
It's now fixed. Thank you for letting me know x
the fenty foundation- i had to over pay since i ordered it through a buyer.. but it just doesn't seem to work.. clings to dry pathces, or separates if i properly moisturize..can u please share what did u apply as a skincare?
Hi Gemma Fenty looks very pretty
My vote on you the Natasha denona
The ND is so expensive, but sooo tempting!
I can see why the Fenty was your favourite, it looks stunning! ND also ok, but the TirTir didn’t look dewy at the end of the day so much as dripping in ghee! I didn’t see much of the TF - on account of fainting at the price 😂. Curious to see what the bare pro is all about, so off to see if you’ve got a video on it.
Check out my 5 minute makeup video x
What are the pros of the bare minerals powder foundation and do you still prefer BM over the ND? I’ve been wanting a powder foundation for the hot summer months.
Wayne Goss raves about Nude by Nature mineral powder foundation. It's an Australian brand, cruelty free, natural etc. their range includes primer, lipstick, BB cream, makeup brushes ( great quality and reasonably priced especially when 40% off sale).
I like both foundations. The ND is lighter and less coverage and the BM is slightly heavier with more coverage but still looks like skin. Both wear for a similar amount of time. xxx
I’ve been waiting for the Revlon serum foundation review. I’ve tried the Revlon Illumination because it’s a dupe for the Chanel No. 1 but it isn’t close enough for me. I just can’t in my heart spend $70 for the Chanel even though it’s amazing on my dry mature skin. I just want something lighter that looks like skin. I’m going to now check it out!
Give it a go Lisa. I think it's lovely and lasts a decent amount of time for this sort of coverage. xxx
@@PamperedWolf I love it!!! Wears amazing on my 51 year old dry skin!
Gemma, what did you prep your skin with before using the ND powder foundation? I have found it a bit finicky - it rolled terribly over 2 of my fav SPFs - mind you I did use the sponge it came with so it could be application issues. I have used it as a finishing powder and it works brilliantly to blur and 'meld' foundation - I am gonna try the brush again to apply it as a foundation. thanks a mill for this review, i was so pee-ed off initially because, for me, this was an expensive purchase, but I am definitely not giving up just yet, and I really appreciate this review. You are a STAR!! Thank you. x
Just my usual skincare and SPF Mairead, nothing special and had no issues xxx
@@PamperedWolf Thanks Gemma. AM hoping to look amazeballs tomorrow at work!!! 🤣
@@PamperedWolfWhat type of primer please?
@ Gemma I just clicked on the link to the Fenty foundation - but it's the same as Natasha Denona ;-) Perhaps you want to fix it?
Fixed, thank you x
Please can I ask if you’ve ever come across a company called Dcypher? I’m fed up with spending money on foundations and constantly getting the wrong shade so tempted to try this company xx
I bought the ND powder foundation in N2 after doing the shade match but it makes me look yellow and gets deeper as the day goes on. It also seems to cling to my dry areas and makes my wrinkles look even worse, so disappointed especially as it was so expensive.
That’s so disappointing. X
Apparently I am the only one who gets only very light coverage from Tirtir. I have tried to apply it thick, as well as apply layers, but it does not cover my freckles, uneven pigmentation, dark spots, nothing.
I tried Fenty foundation, it's nice but can't get a good colour match on me and it goes shiny after a few hours
I liked it at first but noticed that in certain lights it looks awful. And I’m not super oily anymore but i was a greasy mess after a few hours
Anyone else having issues checking out with Yesstyle? Apparently my address isn't accurate enough. I've put in everything including county, wont let me check out.
❤

Link for Fenty is to a different foundation.
My apologies for the oversight, this will be fixed asap. X
I’ve never been able to find a cushion foundation light enough shade for me, I have zero beige tones and everyone calls me Casper 👻
Fragrance in makeup is my bugbear. Just why? There is literally no need
Totally agree
I think people apply Tir Tir too heavily in one go. Very thin layers are best. I bought this in Japan last year and thin layers is the best way to go.
Tir Tir looked bad on me. After an hour ….oxidation and huge pores. Be aware ladies.
Tirtir looks great on me. Make sure to apply it correctly. Less is more.
I bought a Tom Ford foundation and I hated it. Will never purchase another one. Love his eyeshadow quad but foundation is a big fat nope!
Today in Philadelphia it will go up to 96 degrees Fahrenheit and it’s humid. There are now much larger and diverse now.
