  • There seem to be very mixed reviews on this new foundation from Essence... hyped on Tik Tok but online reviews don't back those videos. Where does the truth lie or is it somewhere in between?? Here are the results of my most recent 'weekly wear' ◝( ′ㅂ`)و ̑̑

    I don't understand the bad reviews left on Ulta from people who don't have even tried the product. Yes the shade range is ridiculous, but the reviews are there primarily to detail the experience with the product, not just to comment on the shade range or the brand itself. Any Ulta review not actually reviewing the product should be deleted 🤬
    Anyway, thanks for your review 🤗

    Hope you are feeling better. I still wear a mask in all public places due to Covid being so bad here in Miami. We have so many careless people here who just do not care. My friend is a RN and just in the last 4 weeks the hospital has had 54 deaths from Covid related symptoms. Age varied from 18 to 85.
    The cats 🐾🐾🐾 seem to be getting along quite well and enjoying their new roommate Fig.
    Continue to drink lots of water to help your throat and help to wash away the germs.
    I think the foundation looked nice on you. I find it difficult to pick the right shade as well. Although, I do not wear makeup every day I try to look presentable when I know I have to go out somewhere.
    Have a great weekend.

    I have a hard time matching my shade too. My trick (I don't know if that's a right term for it) is if I can't decide between 2 shades, I go with the lighter one, because after adding blush and bronzer, it looks fine. If I go too dark, there' isn't anything I can do about that. Adding blush and bronzer only makes it worse.
