Im 57 and I have been using the Jones Road collection for the past year. I love it. I had to figure out how to use it. I came from the thought that I needed a full base of makeup then add all the color, contour, etc.. What I found is I dont. I use very little WTF just where i need to even out (its way less than I ever used with any other makeup), then use the concealer sticks for spots of coverage. I use the miracle balm just minimally for color, never on my entire face. The rest of the line is pretty much the same as I used to have powder or cream blush, eyeliner, mascara etc. What I had to get used to was not having a full base of makeup. What I love is how my skin feels hydrated all day and at night it doesnt feel like Ive got this mask on that I need to wash off. My skin has never looked better and I use a whole lot less makeup.
My personal review of your video is that you are accustom in using to much product. Less is more in this incident. When you applied "the blush", why so much?, why are you going that high? It wasn't blended at all. Looked clowness. I have 1 color balm as a try. Not to keen on the smell, but that's me.
I purchased WTF, face pencil, lip and cheek stick, bronzing powder, and translucent powder. I watched videos of Bobbi applying these products on others. For WTF she used it sparingly where needed and used her fingers to spread the foundation over the skin. She used generous amounts of face pencil where needed and tapped it in with her fingers. I started with moisturized and sunscreend skin. I applied WTF sparingly, and face pencil generously where needed. I put the lip and cheek stick on by swiping it on my cheeks and tapping it in with my fingers. The only thing I used a brush for was the bronzing powder. I did not notice any stickiness or tackiness at all, so I didn't even use the translucent powder. My makeup was beautiful, and it lasted all day. For reference I'm 43, have combination skin, and the skin around my eyes is very sensitive. My skin felt amazing with this makeup. I'm totally sold. I'm going to order the miracle balm next and try it out.
Thank you for taking one for the team and saving us the money I've been interested in this line but have been waiting for a review from someone I trust before diving in.
I’m 67 with dry skin. This is the makeup line I’ve been waiting for all my life! Love love love it. It’s not your old goopy make up of yesterday. It’s natural and glowing. You do have to know how to use it. Do your research with the line. It’s not for full coverage. It’s not if you like the mat look. It’s not for the mask look.
I almost bought this line as I prefer a lighter foundation. After this review I think I will pass. I don’t want to deal with makeup on clothes. Thank you!
Well I thought the same I have a few items lip liner etc but no big deal I really wanted to try that foundation balm but even the founder on a infomercial while putting it on asks the team does my face look too greasy ? That was a huge red flag 🚩
A grease 💣 Love her ❤
It’s doesn’t get on clothes. I have it.
I am not a makeup person. I live on farm and work outside and I love this product as I don’t want a bunch of makeup , but I want a little something to even out my skin, but look natural. It doesn’t stay sticky for me and it makes my skin feel great! My skin is normal. Maybe it makes a difference? I am 53.
Jones Road is so different than regular makeup. I personally feel odd in a regular foundation. I am generally a no-makeup girl so Jones Road works for me. I am almost 60 and I add balm on top of the WTF foundation. My personal fav is the Bronze balm. I do believe it is an adjustment with the feel of it and may take time to adjust from just about anything you use. I started with a few items and will look forward to adding more makeup items. There is a powder but I add it only sometimes. Personally, I think Kimberly looks very "Pretty" in the makeup!! I honor all your opinions, especially Kimberly's opinion! Wish everyone the best no matter which makeup!!
me too. I think that she looks very pretty. As a matter of fact, I watched this review WITHOUT the sound, and I was thinking she loved it until I started reading these comments. I LOVE the Jones Road line. I am 60 now and my skin is not the skin I had even 5 years ago. This line is Just Right for me ❤🌹
People forget every one's skin is different and some need more coverage than others, but personally I hate anything that feels tacky on my face, I prefer it to dry as soon as it's blended, so it doesn't sound like the product for me, but if it works for you, that's great.... I like Kimberleys opinions though, I think my skin is more like hers. 👍
Like you I bought many Jones Road products. But unlike you I worked with them until I found what worked best for my type of skin which is very dry. The sticky goes away if you use less and make sure you get it into the skin and not on top of the skin. The face pencils were the worst item I purchased. The shimmer oil in the bronze is so beautiful as a base on my skin. Last but not least you can use tissue or blotting paper if it feels too sticky and that goes away and the color remains. The important thing to remember is that it’s skin care combined with light natural looking coverage. I love the products, they last forever, I look the same at the end of day except my lips need touching up.
I sure appreciate the honesty. I've wondered why it looked so greasy on everyone yet was described as luminous. Thanks for the great review. You just saved me hundreds!
Yes, I agree it looks greasy
Just watching you put on the product, I was thinking to myself, you’re using was too many products for what you’d actually need. Like, WHY put the oil on an already moisturizing product????
@@catherinerahn4800 I thought the same thing! First, I felt the coral "blush" was too dark a color for someone with such fair, almost alabaster skin. Secondly, I felt too much of that product was applied; using a lighter hand when applying it, and using it mostly on the "apples" of the cheeks, as suggested by Jones Road, may have resulted in a far softer look.
It took me some time, as well as trial and error, to learn that a very little of each product goes a very long way. At first, both the moisturizer, that I use at bedtime, as well as the Miracle Balm and WTF seemed greasy and heavy; they sort of sat on top of my skin. I contacted Jones Road and was told to use much less of each product. Cutting the amounts I used of each by at least half has provided me with a complexion that feels comfortable - moisturized, but not oily or heavy, as well as a look that glows just a bit. I have to wonder at Jones Road's business model, because I suspect that each of the products I've bought will last a very long time, so I won't have to reorder anytime soon.
Further, the use of two pencils seemed excessive; one could certainly have provided coverage of blemishes and darkness under the eyes. Also, one of the pencils, plus two very similar shades of eye shadow on the eyes and lids, again, seemed excessive. One of the things I like best about the Jones Road products I've bought is that they're versatile. The pencil I use easily doubles as a first coat on my eyelids, as does a very, very light touch of Dusty Rose Miracle Balm. Granted, I'm nowhere near an expert in using makeup; however, with a bit of patience and coaching from people at Jones Road, I've found the level of coverage I feel looks natural and what I want with WTF foundation and color with a bit of Miracle Balm or my old standby Clinique cheek stick.
For those of you who've ordered products from Jones Road and have a first impression of WTF!!! - and I don't mean the name of the foundation - give it more than a couple of tries, and try using a lot less, and blend each product in very well! I hope you'll be as satisfied with Jones Road products as I've become. I just feel prettier when I have her WTF foundation and Miracle Balm on. I feel more confident wearing my 73-year-old face, which has had numerous sunburns and has lived in Colorado's very dry air most of my life, out into the world, or just futzing around the house, without feeling "made up."
I must tell you that your makeup in this video looks beautiful. I love a glowy makeup look. I think you look natural and younger. I know you use face powder (which I don’t) have u tried powder after WTF? I think your skin looks beautiful. I usually agree with you, but I must say the love the WTF!
Huge thanks for this honest review❣️ I’m 73 and because powdery makeup settles in my wrinkles I thought maybe this was a solution. Funny, I’ve been watching reviews last few days on this product for a solution. I’ll pass on further consideration. Your report was the first person to be so honest. You’ve saved me $$$. 🥰
@Vickiboe592 - same here! I’m 53 yo and using Laura Geller. I don’t HATE it, but looking for something that won’t set into my wrinkles without having to secondarily “rub it out”! Maybe THAT is BOTOX! I’m using everything from PREP-H 😂 to various Ordinary products, and PIXI, to no avail! 😬
I have to disagree with this review. I have been using Jones Road products for a year now. I am 70. This product is wonderful, from the Miracle Balm to many other, WTF foundation, I have bought two colors, face sticks, mascara, eye liner pencils, 2 colors, cheeks and lips, 2 cream eye shadows, face powders. Everyday I am using some form of combination and I love the results.
I will say the way Bobbi Brown conveys her vision for makeup, especially for well seasoned individuals like you and me, was the attraction. I wanted something that would even out my complexion and just let me look like a better version of me. I am not interested in looking all made up to do the grocery shopping. But, look better?…
This “young lady” that did this video seems to have used too much balm. I will agree that the initial feeling after applying the MB is a little tacky, but if applied right the balm does absorb and it provides that improved look while not looking like makeup has been applied.
When I apply Flushed MB to my cheeks it subdues and looks like nothing is there but look in the mirror and you will see a lovely glow… For what it’s worth, I have a long term review as a woman with no agenda except to have the best quality products on my skin while getting the results I am looking for. Do I use other brands? Of course. But, I have not been disappointed with JRB and will continue to buy their products.
@@dianecastagna281
I am currently using Laura Geller as well. I just ordered Jones Road , two balms and foundation. I am anxious to try them. I just watched another influencer and she loved the products and she looked fantastic. 🤞
@@dianecastagna281 I like using Au Natural miracle balm, but find I still have to use my Mally primer so my foundation doesn't settle into the wrinkles. The balm does make my foundation last longer.
I sounds to me like it’s more for women with dry skin
I actually loved how it looked on you. It was more subtle than some of your other looks but certainly in line with the title of your channel. You look very pretty 😊 I have been using some of the products off and on for a few months. It’s taken some playing around with them, but now it’s very easy and quick. And it’s natural looking which is why I like it so much. I do use some powder, not a lot, but that helps reduce the tacky feel though my skin does feel different than with other foundation. I like the feeling though I totally get others may not. It’s also a less is more situation I think. As I played around, I realized I preferred how it looked and felt when I used less. Totally just my thoughts and experience. We are all different and what works for some doesn’t for others. Thanks for your review!
Thanks for giving us an honest review! I was considering buying this makeup line now I won’t waste my money! Again thanks 🙏!!
I really appreciate how you spent your known money on these products. I feel that it truly gives your viewers a true view of what it feels like to plop our own hard earned money on a product 👏🏻🥰💕. I’ve been obsessed w the balm and am so appreciative that you gave us your true experience. Thank you Kimberly💕💕💕💕
Don't forget that youtubers can deduct products they buy as business expenses on their taxes.
I recently bought several of the products. I don’t enjoy wearing foundation. But I actually really like wearing the WTF foundation. I have noticed I need to use very little though. It’s just enough coverage for me, and I use the sticks here and there for extra coverage. I found using the miracle balm was best used very sparingly together with the foundation, or it got too wet looking. Less is more for sure with these products. I enjoy the miracle balm on its own on days I don’t have much on. I just pat the natural one all over and add a little of the flushed balm on my cheeks and lips. It’s definitely ment to be used sparingly, unlike normal makeup. It reminds me a lot of Trinny London makeup line which I also love. I don’t feel like I wasted my money. One thing I would say is that the foundation packaging isn’t very travel friendly. It would get too messy. I still enjoyed your video and respect your opinion xx
Love and appreciate your honesty. Greasy and sticky is definitely not what I’m looking for!💕
Thank you for your honest opinion for the products. I have been using the Miracle Balm Tawny, Happy Hour and concealer pencil over CC cream. I am 62 and they do not cover my wrinkles and dark spots but those products are not for the full coverage. They are not powder finish neither. Feels like a moisturizer on my face all day long and I like it better than having a dry, cakey, or powdery finish. My husband told me my skin looks healthier with the products in my face. I am sorry they didn’t work for you.
I, so appreciate your honesty about this product line. At our age, we want products that work and are reasonably priced.
I think you have to have dry skin to appreciate this line because I don’t experience the stickiness when using WTF. I actually love wearing WTF with the lip and cheek stick and it really feels like skincare with a natural no makeup look. I especially enjoyed WTF during the dry winter season. I thought it looked beautiful on Kimberly but I totally understand not wanting a sticky feeling from my makeup. 😊
These are products that are advertised and seem to be formulated for "mature" skin, which tends to be drier. I'm 73, live in Denver, which generally has very low humidity, so I seem to be very much a part of Jones Road's target audience. I love how I look wearing the products I use. Granted it took me a few times of applying too much Miracle Balm and/or WTF before I got it right. Now, I go out into the world, or just putter around the house looking younger, but not at all made up.
Kimberly, try powder on top & put less on of the balm or foundation. Try the bronze or use your powder bronze for more color!
In the summer, I like to use the Bronze balm all over for more color. My husband likes it!
But my skin is dryer than yours and I live in a very dry climate plus I'm older than you too.
I think all the older ladies really dig it cuz they mostly have dry skin but I have seen younger women on utube who really like the foundation which isn't as rich as the balm.
It is a more natural look or minimal look, I guess you could say.
I live in Denver. Today, it was 98 degrees, with 14% humidity, so my skin loves the little bit of extra moisture that Jones Road products give me.
I am 65 with dry skin and I have loved the miracle balm and WTF. I use a very light application of miracle balm all over my face and find it gives my skin (which can sometimes look washed out)
a nice, subtle wash of color. I follow with the WTF in Medium, face pencils as concealer ( shade 8 and 15) then the cream blush. After using these products for several months my skin has improved in texture and appearance - much more moisturized. I find the product settles in on my skin and I don't have the tacky feel, but I can see where skin that is oilier may have an issue with this as the product is very hydrating. I also love the mascara and the Best Eyeshadows - lovely colors! Jones Road is now one of my personal go-to's. Love your channel, appreciate your honest
reviews, but in this case I think you're forgetting we're all different and this works for some of us.
I love it as well
@@colleendavis8934 Me too!!!! LOVE Miracle Balm!!!!
I love it too. I have dry skin and it is wonderful for me
Thank you for your opinion expressing your own experience. It’s nice to have more than one review. I agree with your comment… We are all different.P
Very curious about using the face pencils over the miracle balm. Does the oil in the miracle balm prevent the concealer for staying in place? Do you use any powder over the miracle balm? @klondike32258
Wow, the make up looked really good on you. Too bad you didn’t like it, because you look great. 😊
I just discovered Jones Road Beauty, I like it very much. I have long brown hair to my hips, despite the fact I am 60+, it doesn’t make my hair stick to my face. I had a problem picking colors of Miracle Balm, I have to mix the dark one with Dusty Rose. I have them on right now and my face feels great. I think this is your opinion is extremely negative. You started the video, I don’t like the way you tear down JRB, I have a super bad skin allergies, I have tried & thrown away so many of the brands you like & break out in rash with them. Sheesh
Thank you so much for your honest review of the Jones Road Beauty line. I thought it was ME! I felt like this stuff was going to slide off my face and it was beyond sticky. Never was I more disappointed with a makeup line, and believe me, I've tried many. Thank you AGAIN!!!!
So interesting. The foundation and balm work great for me. It's tacky for a few minutes, then I touch with a bit of her bronzer and I love it.
Thanks for your review on these products. I had ordered a bronzer and blush type item before I watched your video. They hadn't arrived yet, when I watched your video. $500 is a big investment in these products. In the meantime, I received my order, tried out the 2 items I received and the first issue was the smell. OMG. Like machine oil or something . And then, like you said, very stick and I couldn't stand that I couldn't touch my face without it transferring on my hand. And my hair kept sticking to it. The good news is they will refund your money! I immediately went on their website, found my order and clicked on start a return. I got all the way to the end, where the refund was approved and to my surprise, they didn't want me to ship it back! The page send to keep, gift or donate them. So, depending on how long ago your ordered yours, go back online and get your $500 refund and then toss them. Good luck!
Thank you for your review! I am 76 and just love the line. I use it very sparingly so I am not sticky at all. I love the WTF and the MB. My skin looks amazing and I get so many compliments. So, I think that what is good for one may not be great for another. You just need to try it for yourself. Remember, less is better.
omg, yes! I agree about the sticky greasy mess! I kept wondering what I was doing wrong because I thought this was such a special splurge.
I see most reviews say the say thing, "a greasy mess".
Very impressed I received mine today. The foundation went on flawlessly. Not understanding why everyone is comparing about it being tacky or to shiny. Mind blended in perfectly.
Thank you for throwing yourself onto a $500 grenade for us!
I am a little wary of serial entrepreneurs, am ambivalent about Bobbi Brown, hate the name Jones Road, dislike the unsanitary packaging, but the very worst is supposedly marketing to adult and mature women with almost no acknowledgment off SPF. So grateful to hear still other reasons not to be distracted by this line and its hype.
She does say to put spf on under the foundation & or balm and recommends supergoop.
@@Misskitty15…Why Super Goop?!?!
@@donohoe0 I guess cuz it's chemical & not drying like many zinc based SPF's but that's just my guess, not my preference.🤔
I’m so glad that a lot of people have pointed out that less is more with these products. I originally tried the foundation and it wasn’t working for me but when I used less of it, it looked and felt great. I’m 55 and my skin loves the foundation.
Me too. I replaced my usual Chanel with the WTF foundation
YES! I felt the exact same way. I even emailed them and asked them if I was doing something wrong. I have long hair and it sticks to my face all day long. What a waste!
Gayle Angell: Use less product and it won't be sticky.
Get a refund
Just turned 67. Just started wearing foundation about two years ago. I purchased Jones Road about a year ago. I love it. My dry mature skin loves it. The WTF is great skincare. I like the miracle balm for no make up days. Wtf is best applied with fingers. Most people apply too much. I apply similar to Seint. Then I use the Stan’s out sponge to tap in product. My dry skin loves it. Love the mascara. Pencils ok. Powder eyeshadows are nice.
Same age as you & love Jones Road. I think she used to much product.
@@Joy80JJ It is easy to use too much. I made that mistake. When I first tried Seint, I over applied. It’s a totally different technique than regular foundation. I didn’t see Kimberly use powder , a product I don’t wear. Kimberly usually applies setting powder. Personally I thought it looked great, very natural and glowy. That’s what I want in a foundation.
I purchased the Miracle Balm in dusty rose. It’s really a pretty color. Basically I now have a giant container of lip gloss.
LOL
I saw someone else complain of stickiness and BB commented saying try “dabbing” on your skin, as opposed to rubbing it on. I don’t remember the reason behind it but maybe you could try that? Expensive lipgloss if not 😮.
I’ve been getting bombarded lately w ads for this brand and I’m so glad I ran across this review and all the comments !!
Just tried the Miracle Balm as a makeup base. I put the Flushed color all over my face and then applied my Dior Forever and EL Double Wear combo over it. Holy Smokes, what a gorgeous, youthful look! I’m over 70 and hate both a shiny face and a heavy matte look, so this is the perfect combo for me. As bright as the Flushed color is, it’s perfect under neutral foundation. Thanks to your thorough review, it’s clear that either the Miracle Balm or the foundation could work for me, but definitely not both. Very helpful review.
I love the Flushed colour as well. I havnt tried it under nake up so will give it a go
I agree! Miracle Balm is a sticky mess!! As well as rancid. The WTF is terrible. Oily to a fault. Thanks for reassuring me. I was about to give it another try!
I agree; the “scent” is like rancid oil.
(59 yo) I'm having great luck with Nikol Johnson's makeup (BB cream, color corrector). It's designed for mature women and it doesn't irritate my sensitive skin.
I actually love WTF and miracle balm. I have dry skin and have never liked wearing a bunch of make up. I hate most foundation as it just completely covers your skin. I have had great results and love it. I would not use so many products but I thought you looked very natural and your skin looked healthy.
I totally agree about the sticky feeling of this makeup line: I can’t imagine how uncomfortable it will feel during a Florida summer!
I need the moisture but hate the sticky. I use it under a powder foundation and it’s perfect! I’m 62 with dry skin. I use Au Naturel over sunscreen as a primer, then powder foundation. I get a perfect finish with just a hint of moisture and the powder doesn’t shift into the lines. It has improved my skin condition with regular wear.
You look beautiful with these products on. Did you try popping a little powder on to take away some of the tackiness?
I received my Jones Road products 2 days ago. I am 70 years old with severely sun damaged discolored skin and a couple scars from skin cancer surgery. After watching your video I was so bummed I bought this product so I went back to Jones Road to watch how to apply WTFoundation and Miracle Balm. (I'm not trying to say you're wrong-I promise!) But I got completely different and very good result by applying a lot less foundation. I tapped it on w/a makeup brush & was surprised how well it covered! I then did my eye makeup routine followed by a light dusting of the light translucent powder after the foundation had set a few minutes. I was/am so pleased with how it looks and that I didn't waste my money after all! I'm not sure how it will work in summer months but it's fantastic now at the end of a cold day here in Oregon. I don't think I'll have issues with dry skin over the next couple months and next winter.
Also in Oregon, originally from Florida, and holy moly my skin misses humidity. I think that this would be fantastic in the winter and the bone dry hot summers. I'm 53 and I will try this very sparingly because I don't want to feel sticky. Thanks for your review.
Also an Oregonian… I wish they had this product in local stores. I could try one product - see if I like it and buy more if so. But… am nervous to buy after watching video. (Though I thought she looks radiant with the products she used. But if sticky feeling, I do t want that.)
@@T.R.27 Hi TR, I will see how the foundation works in summer also! If I don't use this foundation my other makeup looks very matted! And! have you tried Jones Road Oil facial cleanser? Also a fav of mine. So different, never thought of an oil as being a cleanser???? I have yet to see how long one tube of it lasts. Otherwise a great product.
Using a a light dusting of powder would be the way to go. Why don’t stores sell this makeup) for would like to see how it goes and n first.
It never dries down!
Your skin looks like it’s glowing with the Jones Road.
Yeah! I really loved the final look. She looks glowy. I forwarded the video several times to compare. Also, it doesn’t look like make up, but natural skin! Have you tried the products already? I’m thinking on buying the foundation and a miracle balm.
You just confirmed I'm not overreacting.....I purchased the miracle balm.... I WAS SO DISAPPOINTED! I wish I had returned it! Ugh....Bobby Brown is flat out and not being honest about this product!
Amiee Adams, it works fine for people who use very little product and use it as skin care. Bobbi was not lying about the product. As with any product, there will always be humans who don't like it, and those who love it.
Bobby Brown is definitely making big bucks with this line also. I'm so glad I was warned!
I am truly amazed by your review! I am 58 and I have been using Jones Road and I have never looked better!! I get tons of compliments using these products with a light touch of It cosmetics powder in my t-zone .
I think you might need more coverage.. so you used way too much product.
Used sparingly.. in only targeted areas.. these products are absolutely fabulous!
Thank you for your review. I would like to try the foundation and wish they had small sample sizes to purchase.
@@phyllisdenevekostelnik3421 I have seen other reviewers show smaller samples. They offer them sometimes. I have been wanting to try this too. Love watching all these reviews with peoples honest opinions. Other reviewers used less and seemed more successful with the products. I have never been able to use foundation because it just didn't look as good as my natural skin. I was blessed. But now I need something more. With gray hair and even dryer skin and now sun damage is showing up and I am blotchyt. I am thinking this is what I need, but I would use it very sparingly.
You looked much better with the Elf makeup. As usual Bobby Brown products. They’re over priced and over hyped.
Thank you Kimberly for testing this and talking about it. Probably six months ago I bought two of the balms and tried them and was appalled! I too could not stand the stickiness of them. I felt like I had glue on my face. I did contact the company and told them how much I hated it and they did refund my money and did not ask me to send it back. I was thrilled to throw everything away!! Thank you for saving others. I am so surprised that someone with the reputation of Bobbi Brown would create such a terrible line of makeup. I bought it b/c of her reputation. I must say I was pleased with how readily they refunded my money.
Bobbi brown cosmetics I love so much so chic so elegance
Kathy Shoucair: In the future, don't landfill perfectly usable product. I would have gladly given it an appreciated home. *When Decluttering:* Please consider the following to reduce one-time use/waste: I donate new and gently used skincare and cosmetic items to a women's victim's shelter and LGBTQ organizations who are thrilled to receive such things as you are decluttering many can be sanitized.

@@violetviolet888 Thank you so much for all the valuable information on how to sustainably dispose of unwanted beauty products. You listed so many great resources. My city has two homeless shelters and one women's shelter for dosmetic violence victims. Unfortunately they will not accept products that have been used, only new items. I will keep all of your ideas in mind when next I am decluttering my products. Appreciated!
@@violetviolet888 PS I was just reading some of the comments and I did try the Jones Road products using just a bit to see if I could avoid the stickiness, but it was sticky no matter how much or how little I applied. I think it may work for women with very dry skin, but ugh don't know how they could tolerate the feel of it on their faces.
Thank you for telling us the truth about this very pricey makeup. I have heard others say how greasy and sticky it is too.
This is why I love watching you! You are so honest and I can trust your endorsements…and entertaining. Thanks for your truthfulness.
Many of us have dryer skin as we get older. True.
But many of us DON'T. I don't want sheer coverage - I have discoloration. I don't want hydrating - I have skin care for that.
Thanks for biting the bullet for us, K! I trust you and your opinions! 💕
1:35 I really appreciate you trying these products and sharing your honest opinions with us. I am 62 yrs young, and have been on my personal journey of improving my skin for the past two years, and I don’t even want to count up the exact number of money (thousands) I have wasted over the past two years on skincare, makeup and gadgets with big promises, and ended up in my trash can!
Have you tried Retin A? Generic is Tretinoin . Best decision I ever made for my skin care, about 4 years ago at 56…game changer for me 🥰
@@franlynch9428 I did try Tretinoin last year, and after trying lower strengths, I was still having reactions from it. Retinol fries my skin. What brand of Tretinoin do you use?
@@arlenelovelace18 the tube say Northstar ….if that helps. I started with a pea size amount mixed with a little of my moisturizer, about twice a week. Then worked up to every other night…the weakest strength. I am now the next higher strength . But still about every other night.
The first month or so there is shedding of your skin, peeling which is a challenge, but if you stick with it that will stop. Ps my skin is extremely sensitive
i use curology and love it. @@arlenelovelace18
Wow...glad I watched this and didn't waste my money on these products!! $500 is too much to toss in the bin.
Thank you, Kimberly for this super honest review. I was really interested in this line, especially those miracle balm products. I guess not though, I really appreciate this!❤
Make up revolution has a cheaper dupe for the miracle balms. I got one, kinda like on my cheeks for my very dry skin. It is tacky but don’t mind on my cheeks. If your curious maybe try 1 of theirs.
@@carebear8146 Thank you for the recommendation. I actually have 2 of their colors and I really like the formula. Thanks for sharing and be well.
@TB: I thank Kimberly as well, particularly when prices are more than likely in American dollars so would be even more so depending upon currency exchange rates. i.e.: Between American and Canadian for example.
Beg to differ, I absolutely love theses products. I have very dry skin so that could be why.
Thank you for adding that. I could see where it would be helpful for dry skin. I sure wish they would sell samples… Try before you invest.
When this line first came out, it reminded me of the story of "The Emporer's New Clothes", in that it is too sheer, too oily and just not really makeup. It always makes me curious too when a creator "leaves" (or gets pushed out) of a brand they've created. Thanks for taking a hit for the team, I'm glad I skipped trying this line.
She did a fantastic master class on the Masterclass subscription site. I'm really disappointed to see that her new makeup line sucks (She sold her other one to concentrate on her family.) I'm glad I came here first. I was going to buy some of the products.
Maria D, Bobbi Brown wasn't pushed out. She *chose* to walk away. And less is more with application of this product. It's more like skin care. Then it won't be sticky.
@@violetviolet888 - I never said she was pushed out, I specifically said she left. As far as your skincare claims for this product line, everyone I've known who has trued it has said the same thing "leaves my face greasy" and it shows as greasy in every picture I've seen. If it works for you great but your experience is your experience and not everyone else's.
I've heard that you should use it without skincare, since this is supposed to be skincare.......??
Jones Road Beauty is AMAZING! The formulation is perfect for my 57 yr old skin. It does not settle in fine lines and wrinkles and actually minimizes them. I have received multiple compliments how good my skin looks and some ask me if I had work done LOL! I would not recommend this product if you have oily skin, because it is very hydrating. I no longer have to waste my time with primers, setting sprays ect.. My skin feels healthy and dewy and the product becomes one with my skin. Those that say it is sticky are putting to much on, it is buildable but a little goes along way. It is not a full coverage make up, it is a beautiful natural looking product. I just love it!! Bobbi is a genius. Try it you will be glad you did. 😊💄
It is not for everyone, nothing is, but I absolutely love it. I'm 51 and It is the best makeup I've ever tried. I did learn that less is more and I don't feel the tackiness. I also love the colors. I am very picky about colors and I found these to be exactly what I'm working for.
I'm sure you can return all of the products and get a refund.
@@nancyzuckerman9384 she just said she liked it. Why would she return it? 😊
I love the foundation, I haven’t tried anything else but the foundation gives me a lovely natural complexion, without the horrible makeup feeling. I have redness, scarring from an accident and it works beautifully. I do feel less is more with this product but I prefer it over some high end foundations.
I love the products. I have very dry skin and I love the moisture it provides I found less is more with the Jones Road. I don’t like to look like I have makeup on so this is a great product for me.
I have been trying to cancel.my order and can't reach anyone. I dont trust a return on this. They make it hard to be able to reach someone to talk to.I dont trust companies like thia.They make it were you almost have to keep this product that does not work for you.
Thank you so much for this video!! I’ve been wanting to try the miracle balms but was waiting for an HONEST review!! I’m disappointed it wasn’t all I had hoped for. 😢
I had a completely different experience once I practiced using a little amount. It made my face so pretty and it did dry down on me but actually set well and lasted and lasted. I can't believe this review....because if you don't want those Miracle Balms, send them to me!! Love it!
I’m so relieved to hear that I am not the only one who feels this way about these products! So disappointing! Thank you for your honest review!
Actually, the foundation looks fantastic on you!!!!
My experience was exactly like yours! I’m glad to hear I’m not alone in my opinion. I was also inspired by the concept, and very disappointed in the reality of the products. Maybe Bobbi will refine her products and come up with something better.
I’m sorry these products didn’t work for you. I absolutely love Jones Road products. I’m a former makeup artist and l get a beautiful glow from these wonderful products. Not at all greasy. Stays hydrated and fresh all day. If the products feel like Vaseline on your skin you are using too much. The price point is in line with other similar brands. It’s not a cheap brand.
I love Jones Road products too. I think she used too much product. She also used moisturer first. I do not.
I love these products too. A little goes a long way. I only prep skin with Vit c serum and sunscreen. A very light dusting of powder can take down the shine. My coverage looks fresh all day long and all night
I love them, too. 100%.
If you would use her silk like face powders you would feel differently about her products. The powders are so light and airy and give a very elegant finish to the WTF and Miracle Balms. I ADORE Jones Road products.
I have had so many compliments on how beautiful my skin is and after two years of spending so much money on trying to find a "hydrating" foundation I was so happy to find Bobbie's new line. After 2 months of wearing WTF my skin looks fabulous. I don't need to touch up and I go all day without my face feeling like a dried up raisin! My daughter who is in her twenties loves this line too,!
Also, her powders are talc-free!
I have been using these for a month and my skin is transformed.
I would have GLADLY paid for shipping to have you send the Jones Road products to me!!! I am 68 with dry skin and I LOVE the products, especially the Miracle BALMS!
OMG. LOVE YOU!! I could not agree more and more. That balm is like gooey glue. You are the best
Thank you, thank you Kimberly! This product line was a huge money grab by Bobbi Brown , cashing in on the Clean Beauty trend and the over 50 's. So disappointing 😞
I was so surprised by your opinions on it because the whole time you were applying I was thinking you looked absolutely stunning, natural, and glowing. Just beautiful! As BB says, "you, only better." The line is not meant to be full coverage. WTF is not a foundation, which is why it is called What the Foundation :) more of a tinted serum and the face pencils are used to conceal and cover. I use a setting spray after applying. I agree about the Just a Sec but LOVE the best eyeshadow.
I think you have to much product, you just need the one for red tone skin. You can return for a full refund.
I LOVE her line! I have super dry skin & it's the ONLY thing I've ever tried that keeps my skin very hydrated ALL DAY! I wear it over night. It soaks into my skin and hydrates. It only feels slightly sticky after application but adds color that I REALLY NEED & then soaks in & HYDRATES!
It's the best thing I ever found! The pencils are great too.
The foundation wasn't hydrating enough so the balm + pencils give a light foundation look.
Obviously for beauty over 50 doesn’t have dry skin.
Miss Kitty. I love the products. I think those who use powder, should try applying powder. I get many compliments when u wear WTF. I wear very little, and stamp in with sponge it looks great. The ingredients in the WTF are skin care products. I don’t use a lot of skincare before applying. Some days I just wear Miracle balm, instead of skincare for a natural glow look. I have long wavy hair it isn’t that sticky. I use very little. You are I are in the minority , LOL. I think Kimberly looks very pretty and I like her glow!
@@goldie4245 agree! It's a very natural look. I think she looks real pretty too! Yeah if she put powder on top she might like it better plus there are no chemicals in these products. Very healthy for the skin. 🙂
I have to agree with you! I love all of her products that I’ve gotten so far. I threw out all my other foundations & now only use hers.
@@cindyhuber3303 I think her WTF is great with less skincare , and for those who powder, it would help stickiness. Kimberly normally powders, I don’t, it truly looked great imo on her.
Thank you for your reply. I’m going to try the foundation on my mature skin. Especially knowing that it does soak in and doesn’t stay oily on your skin… I believe that not overdoing it is probably the key.
Send it back. Get your money back.
You CAN return everything for a refund ya know… you’re not stuck with it. And you’re using it like traditional makeup and it’s not meant to be used like that. You used way to much product. I absolutely love the balms! I use them over my skincare at night and it seals it in. I use it on my hands and it takes away all the crepe look on my hands. I don’t like a lot of makeup and putting some balm on over my sunscreen in the morning and I sweat and the balm stays put. I’ve had many compliments on my skin. I don’t use a ton of makeup everyday like you do….. sunscreen and balms and that’s my everything
I absolutely love this makeup line . It gives me what I have been looking for it is not at all greasy unless I put to much on. I have normal skin and I love this . I believe just like any other product it depends on what type of coverage you are looking for .
Thanks for illustrating it so well, my thoughts exactly! I have so much admiration for Bobbi and thought initially it was me that’s getting it wrong. 🤔🤪 My experience with the face pencils was different, they felt uncomfortable to use and I declutterd everything I bought. I don’t understand what her intentions were with this line, of all creators, I was pretty sure Bobbi would design fabulous makeup for more mature women.
I'm confused too!
Ms Lane, the balms are more like skin care and very little product is needed for application.
glad i watched before I bought
I was very interested in your video because I saw the commercials and started to buy them but I kept hesitating. Thank you for your very honest opinion!
I’m a 58 yrs old and am always looking for a great foundation for us older beauties, thank you for your honest review, I was almost going to order this makeup but will give this a hard pass now!
Thank you so so so much for your honesty. I almost got hooked in to buying the miracle balm after the website sucked me into the color test. I kept thinking, it looks greasy! Your video saved me from making a mistake, and my trust in your recommendations is even stronger!!
You look GORGEOUS !!!
YOU MAY HAVE PUT IT ALL ON TOO HEAVY.....
IM 70 ISH...
I L💖VE JONES ROAD !!!
Well as a wrinkled up 66 year old myself I’m going to try it anyway because I don’t wear my hair near my face and sticky doesn’t bother me because I can’t stand the dried prune foundation lock of Estée Lauder 24 hour Longwear. Maybe you’re just using too much?
I totally disagree. Love this product. Only thing I don’t really like is the eye pencil. They are too hard and don’t go on easily. Love the face creams and sticks too. At first I thought the balms were sticky too but now they don’t seem that way. I’m disappointed that they didn’t work for you but we’re all different-I have very dry skin. Still love to watch your videos ❤
P.S. there is a Facebook page for these products with a large following.
I love the WTF oundation and Miracle Balm!!
You look pretty. Thx for the honest review, saved me $$$$
THANK YOU for clarifying this makeup line. You saved me a ton of money.
Brooke Shields uses this product and loves it, she used the bronze and the one without color
I can’t wait to try it
I am sure she stumps Jones Road for free.
My 42 year old daughter tried it and felt pretty much the same😂 she to put it bluntly hated it and promptly warned me and her 2 sisters to stay away. But still I wondered if it was meant for more mature ladies like myself and thanks to you I have my answer😆❤️ thank you!
I’ve used the miracle balm alone and as a primer and bronzer with a light powder foundation. I do like the extra moisture. It is a little sticky and goes on better when patted on and not rubbed on. It is buildable. I love it with powder foundation because it keeps the powder from traveling into lines. I use it over my sunscreen, both alone and with the powder foundation. These are more suited for dry to normal skin.
I was enticed into purchasing several BB products, because of the great marketing , and I have a different opinion. I read many reviews before purchasing and I was very hesitant but, I bought the Miracle Balm in Au Naturel and Dusty Rose. I have very dry skin and these balms work great on my skin! In fact, I love them! They make my skin dewy and glowy! But, it does take some practice getting used to the application. I use them on my cheeks and lips. I also bought the Bronzer, in Dusty Rose, and it is a very pretty color and matte finish. But, you definitely can't use it over the balms. Now that I've used the balms for a few months, I can't live without them!
I'm sorry the products didn't work for you. I have tried and spent a lot of money over the years with foundations, tinted moisturizers, primers and so much more including Dior foundation. None of them work for me... I was so frustrated because I have large pores, combination and sensitive skin. The ordinary skincare products did nothing but burn my skin and break me out. I've been so frustrated trying at 45 years old to wear makeup again and find skincare products that work for me. I have to say so far I love the Jones Road miracle balm, face pencils and Wtf. I use small amounts and after completing my makeup I use the skindanavia setting spray. I am also using SkinCeuticals soothing cleanser and daily moisture. So far everything is working well. Please if you're like me where everything irritates your skin give these products a try. Also I use no brushes or sponges to apply only my fingers.
Wow, you really took one for the team! ($500? 😱) Thank you for the video and your honest opinion. I watched a lot of the Jones Road videos too and felt these products were waaay overpriced! I just wasn’t THAT curious…Maybe about the miracle balm but once I saw the price….I was like, “yeah, I’m good!”
Anyway…thank you again! 💛
Thank you for your video on Jones Road and for being very honest!
i agree with you,
thanks for this almost lost my money
I got it to work after watching another TH-camr. First, don’t use moisturizer under the WTF foundation, only sunscreen. Use your fingers (not a brush or sponge) to apply the foundation, and apply more where needed for better coverage. Use the sticks and beauty balms next. Then powder lightly with a fine translucent powder. No stickiness. I found it looked great and diminished my lines and pours.
Kimberly stated that she did use her fingers - she used a brush to get it out of the packaging but used her fingers to spread it around.
Helpful, thanks
Thank you for your HONEST opinion…that’s truly rare these days!!!
You are so right, this was like Crisco
Try Elf skin care and glamour makeup and you will love most of this line. For mature women, you bet, I am over 75 and think it is great. Affordable, yes, it is. My fav skin care product is Holy Hydration fragrance free moisturizer for night time. $13 for a small jar.
I live in the high desert and I think a) you look wonderful b) I want the moisturizing effect and will try both the balm and the WTF. Thanks for the review- you do look great!
My experience with JRB has been just the opposite! There is a small leaning curve because it’s not like the makeup we’re used to using. It doesn’t leave me with a sticky face. JRB has a generous return/exchange policy. So Idk why the presenter didn’t return her products.
I LOVE your honesty in everything you show us. Thank you for saving us the headache of buying something that doesn't work! :)
I absolutely adore this line of cosmetics. If you put it on correctly, it gives your skin a beautiful, healthy glow. It's all I use!
J'adore this line of cosmetics! #JonesRoad rocks!
She gave it several tries. “Applied correctly”.. she used it exactly how she wants to use it. It doesn’t work for her. Period. She didn’t use it “wrong”. To each their own. You like it, she hates it.. each are valid opinions
I have no idea why she used face oil over the foundation. That said, this is the third review from someone over the age of 50 who didn't like the foundation. All said it was too moisturizing. It is probably great if you have really dry skin.
This sounds like the perfect product for me since there isn’t a moisturizer that is too much for me.
Many thanks for your honest review! I thought $40 was crazy high for their blush, & I’m so glad you gave better priced alternatives. Also in the humid & sticky east coast summers, you’d have to be a masochist to wear her stuff. Bobbi should have known better, and not fallen for her own marketing BS.
Thank you for the honest review. I’ve been using the Jones Road products for a few months now. I have to agree that the miracle balm did feel greasy and sticky my first few tries. As many have said, I find if I do use it or the WTF foundation I forgo my moisturizer and that helps. Also as others have said I don’t use a lot. I also pat it on with my fingertips rather than rub it in. I find if I finish with the powder, the tackiness goes away; that’s probably true no matter what powder you use but I do like her face powder. It’s very light. I use the colorless powder. I totally agree about the eye shadow and I find the mascara clumpy and very thick too. I have to use q-tips to smooth it out. Anyway I really appreciated your video and you look fabulous, dahling! 😊
