ABOUT ME: My name is Shelly and I’m a 49-year-old web geek that jumped off the deep end into the makeup and beauty world. I’ve got normal to dry skin, fine lines, and hyperpigmentation caused by sun damage. Cameo appearances by my rescue cats Daffy, Ziva, and Charlie (all girls). Rest in peace, my pretty girl Polly 2014 - 2024.

Thank you for making these reviews! I'm also 40+ with some dryness on skin and these videos are so helpful 🥰💜 There are so many influencers who are either too young with no skin problems (like dryness), or using some crazy lighting and/or filters so you can't even see how the products look in reality.
Loving your garden as well! I hope I can have that kind of peaceful environment to live in one day 😍
Love your kitty cat ears 🐱❤👍
This was really pretty. Tempting. I wore the What's Up Beauty Monsoon palette today and it's so beautiful!
Mmmmm cherries are my favourite too! They come out just on Christmas here in NZ so they are a staple for Christmas dinner tables. They make a great gift too because they are not cheap. For around 26mm to 30mm you'll be looking at paying USD37+ for 2kg. Smaller cherries are cheaper but the bigger ones are worth it!
Thanks, Julie! Nails are Color Street :)
Shelly, that looks like a very smooth, natural finish. Perfect for hot weather. 👍 The shade looks spot on as well.
Very pretty Shelly. Thank you for another great review. Would you Review Ciele’s products? I think you tried one of them. Their products all have high % of spf in them. But what I’ve seen, really lovely makeup products.
Hey Shelly! I 've recently discovered the Sheglam foundation cream (the one that comes in a slim pot) and it looks amazing on my dry combo skin! Not super duper longlasting in this crazy hot summer. I'd say it lasts abt 6 hrs on me. I Implore to try it! It's super affordable! I noticed that they recently released a Stick Foundation as well and just got it! Got 2 shades, but only one arrived as of now, the other will take around 2 weeks seeing as how I don't live in the US.
I bought the SheGlam cream foundation, too, and I really like. It took some practice to apply it evenly on my skin. Thanks for mentioning the stick! I’m heading straight to Amazon for that one!
Finally a video worth watching! Hi, Shelly. ❤
Totally agree. Love Shelly’s reviews.
Yayyyy helloooooo! :)
Hi Shelley this looks good on you but it’s not enough coverage for me. I do have rosacea and I need some level of coverage tbh. My go to combo for my extremely dry skin in the Summer is the Daniel Sandler green face primer with the Ilia skin tint (in the dropper bottle with spf) on top. It looks fresh/glowy and yet still minimises some of the redness. I’m not super red right now and I don’t need massive coverage, but more than this bb gel cream provides. It’s not been great weather in Scotland so we’re not exactly melting in the heat😂 however so I can’t speak to longevity in high heat conditions. Best wishes x
Oooh I need to pull out my Ilia skin tint. It is gorgeous and I haven't worn it in some time. Once they go in my drawer I forget about them!
I'm glad you always mention the scent. Thanks for all your hard work!
I really enjoy this skin tint on these crazy hot days. It’s one of a very small handful of product that sit nice on my face. Thanks for reviewing. It’s looks great on you too. Oh and I love using my fingers with the product 😂
Ziva your fan club is here. Good to see you girl. Great review
Wow, I think that tint was BEAUTIFUL! Great colour match also. Your nails are lovely and the perfect colour for today's T-shirt and makeup ❤
I'm glad I found you - I'm wanting to try Kosas and also have dry, maturing skin. Debating on the foundation or this BB cream but I'm glad to see this is a product that will likely work for me on light makeup days.
It does look very nice, just a little glow, not overkill.
That looked really good on you!
I swear, you look great in everything! Lots of great foundations lately! (Minus the CT. 🙈)
Today I’m trying the pink Tir Tir foundation. I didn’t like the red one at all, but this one seems to be a bit better so far. It’s a bit drying, even for my norma leaning combo skin. Next time I’m going to moisturize even more, probably with something a little heavier like my magic cream. I’m only 2 1/2 hours in but so far just a tiny bit drying and emphasis of fine lines.
I'm afraid to open my pink one. I think I accidentally ordered a refill and not a compact and I have nothing to put it in! (Well, my amazon says I ordered the compact but what I received feels like a refill).
Your skin looks beautiful and I love to see Ziva
I haven't tried this, but I do ❤ the concealer from kosas. Oh, and the blush.
Ohhh, ❤❤❤ Ziva Kittie - I always want to pet you through the screen whenever you come on. Tell your mom that she is such a big help when I need a product review🥰🥰
Somehow, I missed this release. Love how it looked on you. Putting on my list as this would be great for summer and our carribean cruises. Ziva is adorable as ever.
I had missed it too! I didn't see it until I was physically in the Sephora store!
Hi Shelly! Kosas is not a brand that I'm usually drawn to since their concealer started smelling pretty bad after just a couple of months 😬 I guess one of the drawbacks of clean cosmetics 🤔 but this one looks really nice on your skin, I'd prefer a bit more coverage but it'd perfect for no-makeup makeup days... thnx for the review! say hi to Ziva 😽... hugzzz 💜
I am living on cherries just now, as well! I love your reviews and thoughts.
It's the most wonderful time of the year! 🤣
Shelly why oh why ❤this looks soooo good!!! And I love that brand but I didn’t need it 😅 I love the total look!!
You look beautiful! I love your nails! 😍
I like those scents, even if it smells like crayons. My face really does not like added fragrance in foundations.. almost got this way too light. I withstood bc i'm drowning in complexion products and i need to stick to sth to not upset my skin too much. But this looks really good!
Thank you for your reviews, I love them.... Would you prefer the BB burst or the Kosas Foundation?
Hmmmm I like them both but I've honestly reached for the BB Burst more often - I think mostly because I have a lot of medium coverage foundations I love but not as many of the more sheer options, so it's one of the best sheer to light options I have.
Hi Ziva! Hi Shelly!
You picked the perfect shade. Looks great on you. I know you’re planning another Tir Tir review soon, the semi matte one. I’ve been using the Missha cushion foundation this week and I’m really liking it. Would be curious to know how it compares with the semi matte Tir Tir.
Love the framed skulls behind you. Craft fair purchase?
Should be posting the semi matte soon! It's nice but I would pick the Missha over it.
I don’t bother with skin tints anymore. They don’t cover anything (I have rosacea) better than my tinted sunscreen, and I’d rather wear that anyway. 🤷🏼♀️ But I have to mask all the time. 😖😷😖 My tinted sunscreen (Australian Gold) wears well considering. 👍🏻
I think you are the only one who loved this product on YT out of the reviews I have watched and it may be because you have dry skin
Yep definitely dry skin here. I avoid watching reviews until after I do mine so I haven't seen yet what people are saying!
Ur bakuchiol cream smells fine bath product scent recommendations bubble gum or strawberry
Guess I’m making a trip to Sephora! 😆
The cardboard comment made me laugh. My husband says that hotel bar soap smells like a fresh cardboard box lol.
LOL!!
Hi! 😊 I have this in #15 light cool, not sure what the difference is, mine is just a tiny bit darker, although it looks the same on you as it does on me.
It feels refreshing right? I gotta pull mine out to use it more often.
I really love the texture of it. I can't think of anything else quite like it that is makeup and not moisturizer.
@@goow yes it’s definitely unique.
@@goow hi, would it be a dupe for Chanel Water fresh tint?
How would you compare this to Lisa Elderidge skin tint (not the foundation)
I haven't tried the LE tint yet!
Can u try kjaer weis skin tint
Added to my to-buy list - thanks Suzanne!
How would you compare this to the Saie tinted foundation?
Similar in coverage but the Kosas is a little bit more dewy on me. I love the Saie too!
@@goow I have the Saie and I can’t ever figure out if I love it or hate it. lol.
Omg. Idk how I would survive without Sephora being 5 min away from me 😂
I have an Ulta nearby and for a couple years there was one of those mini Sephoras in my JCPenneys but they closed over lockdown and now it's an hour away. Sadness! lol
That’s good you have ulta. Any chance you have a Sephora in kohls by you? Unfortunately, they don’t carry everything, but still has good options
If the product does not cover the sun spots, then it's a no no for me.
This product looks like my jam. Have you tried Jones Road WTF? I'm wondering how the texture and feel of this Kosas tinted gel creme compares to WTF; does it stay as wet/sticky as the Jones Road? I like the WTF but mostly in dry weather. This Kosas product looks really fresh and pretty on you, no clinging to peelies, which is major for me since I use adapalene. Oh, really like your hair, super cute with the shaved sides and Audrey Hepburn bangs! [waves at Ziva ]
I love the WTF but do set it lightly with powder. The Kosas sets down a bit more than the Jones Road but I think it could go either way, with or without powder.
