I'm in my early forties, and while I generally agree with most reviews this is one exception. This is NOT a foundation, it's a moisturizing tint. It's not meant to be built upon. It is a product for those that wish to even out their skin tone, and add a bit more moisture. Attempting to make this product into something it is not intended to be creates the problem, not the product itself. It's very reminiscent of my beloved Le Mer, but about $80-$90 less expensive. If I'm running errand I'll apply this with a buffing brush, set with powder, a bit of blush, and mascara, and I'm out the door. I have no issues with creasing, transfer, or caking. If I want a foundation, I use my CHANEL PERFECTION LUMIÈRE VELVET, or my two new holy grails, the L'Oréal Total Coverage or the Pro-Glow. Brilliant foundations at a drugstore price. I highly recommend all of the above.
I know your comment is old but if it’s not meant to be medium coverage than they shouldn’t market it as that. I picked it up at Walmart the other day because it specifically said medium buildable coverage, when they market something as such and people use it the way they market it and it doesn’t work out than they will get bad reviews.
This tinted moisturizer is my holy grail and has been for years, it’s great for dry skin, fine lines and wrinkles. It’s good for evening out your skin tone and just looks beautiful imo.
I have dry skin (used to be super oily), and I tried this hydrating tint on a whim. I was shocked at how pretty my skin looked. The coverage (on me) is light to medium, but my skin looks flawless. It evens out some redness, and my skin looks soft and supple. This is the best I've tried, and I've tried Clinique, Lancome, IT, Revlon, & NYX. I don't want a heavy foundation, and this is absolutely perfect for me. I'm sorry you had different results but that's likely because you have oily skin. I hope Neutrogena never discontinues this product. It's very affordable and provides terrific results for my dry skin.
It just goes to show how different we all are. I love this foundation on my dry mature skin.
I have VERY dry, peeling skin from Differin use, and I love this foundation. I find it to be hydrating and buildable. Its one of my three favorite foundations along with the It CC, and Clinique Beyond Perfecting.
I prefer this tint to my clarins skin illusion even though I have to order from the US to the UK. I'm 53 with combo skin and lots of lines and pores and this is so kind and flattering for me.
I love this foundation for my dry winter skin. It is more of a tinted moisturizer rather than a foundation. It doesn't last in the heat of summer and I would guess it is awful on oily skin too. It is fabulous on very dry skin with some concealer under my eyes for coverage.
If you have very dry aging skin, it is fantastic! Looks more natural than most others. If you want heavy full coverage, go with something else. I think it how your using it. I absolutely love it.
I’m 60 and I love this tint with my primer underneath. Put a little mineral powder over it and it looks flawless. Leaves a soft look on my skin and I don’t have many wrinkles. But with the little I do have this tint never settles or cakes in on the lines. Again my skin is dry not sure if that’s why, but it works for me and gives me the right amount of coverage I need for everyday. If I have a special event like a wedding or a large event then I use my other foundation for a fuller coverage.
I really like this tint and it does not dry out my skin. I like that it does not settle in my fine lines. Great tint and I highly recommend it. I will be 51 next month and I have normal skin. I don't have any issues with patchiness.
My skin looks amazing with this skin tint. I Don’t use a lot of foundation. I prefer a light coverage and use concealer for andy imperfections. I don’t get patchy so not sure what happen with your use. I am 56 with dry skin that is well hydrated.
I really adore this foundation on my super dry 43 year old skin. I didn't like it the first time I used it because I didn't know how to apply it and I was expecting a foundation (despite the fact its a tint and says that 😅). Now that I know how to use it, I adore this.
I can't tell you how much I appreciate this honest and detailed review. I watched other beauty bloggers rave about this product and I almost tried it. I'm always leery of trying new foundations because I want something that looks natural, like skin and I can't stand when a product oxidizes. Thank you for showing us up close how this wears and how it looks in different lighting. This really was a helpful review.
I really want to thank you for these comprehensive videos. You have saved me untold amounts of money. I've been watching these videos since well before you had a grail foundation. I have the same skin issues you do, but more wrinkles. I know I am not alone when I say I appreciate it.
Thank you so much Angie for your honest and detailed reviews.. You are the best. I haven't seen any Y Tuber will give that much details and honesty about the products. I came across your channel 6 months ago and I am in love with your work and dedication.. Thank You Again.
Hi Angie:) I am 45 and have dry skin. This foundation looks nice, applies best with a brush but is not long wearing. For me it's a decent choice. I was also thinking I looked darker later in the day and never thought about it oxidizing until you mentioned it, so thanks for turning on my lightbulb!
I love how thorough your reviews are. Thank you for testing them out on several days in different ways. I can always trust your reviews.
Angie, how lucky I feel that you are such a trooper and try out all of these products for us goo, bad and the ugly! I have been toying with the idea of getting this foundation and I am so greatly to have happened across your video before placing my weekly Ulta order. I hope that doesn't sound too bad, I use many bath, body and beauty products from Ulta and as much as I try to plan ahead we are almost always in need of something by weeks end. In any case I do believe we share the same sort of skin type to some degree and I trust your testing and opinions as I know without a shadow of a doubt you put it all through vigorous testing. Thanks so much for all you do and take care Angie. I hope you have a wonderful Mothers Day with your girls and husband and a great week ahead. Peace and love xo
I have normal to dry skin. While it felt super on my face after the initial application, by noon, it looked like a hot mess, and that was with primer and setting powder. A no go for me. Thanks Angie for doing such great work!! Happy Mothers Day!
I have used this foundation and really like it.
I’ll tell you I have acne prone oily skin, BUT had a bad breakout last month, found your channel, started on half of your skincare routine (CeraV ) and my skin looks AMAZING.
Zero breakouts evened skintone, very hydrated, etc
I think, for me, the breakouts were due to me over cleansing due to breakouts (vicious circle)
So I bought the Neutrogena hydrating foundation and with the ELF sheer powder, it works on me for some strange reason.
I typically used to use bare minerals classic powder foundation or a oil free drug store foundation. Not sure why this is working, but I won’t question it 😁
As always, I really enjoy your videos and appreciate all the hard work you put into them.
You are a trooper!!! Putting up with that for so many days for a video? You deserve an award girl....Kudos to Angie!!! Kick this one to the curb, there is NO reason on earth to have to go thru all that nonsense. God love ya!!!
thank you for reviewing the Neutrogena Hydrobusting foundation. I love your reviews because you are thorough and really put the foundation to the test. This answered my questions about this product. I won't spend the money on it. thanks for reviewing.
Your thoroughness is really appreciated! This is one of my top go-to foundations. I have pretty normal skin with mild rosacea. The ONLY tool I use to apply it is a Sephora brush (it looks like a paintbrush and is meant for contouring - lol) as everything else was a fail. It feels good on my skin and even lasts well on my nose which is an area that foundation likes to wear off.... hello Rudolph. So this is a winner as even the shade works well for me.
Your reviews of products are simply THE best!
Thank you.
I also bought the Australian gold sunscreen and I agree that it's amazing. I have oily skin and this sunscreen makes my skin feel wonderful and as a bonus it reduces the size of my pores too. I've worn it a couple of days with no foundation over it
Thanks for the thorough review! I got this foundation a few weeks ago and it was quickly demoted to wear on quick morning dog walks or to the gym (not that I think it will last through a workout, more just to wear on the way there). I see it as more of a tinted moisturizer -- something to throw on to even out the skin tone or when you really don't need to be wearing makeup in the first place (but of course still do because you never leave the house without it!). I apply with fingers and do like the way it goes on.
Hi Angie!
Well, it looks like I'm in the minority here, but I love it! Like you, 40 Nude was a perfect match. I apply with my beauty blender and it works great! My skin is dry and at age 56, I have a hard time finding a foundation that won't settle into my wrinkles. I had almost given up when I found this. I prefer light coverage as I have freckles and medium to full coverage looks ridiculous when I have freckles everywhere else. I do use a primer and a finishing powder. Thank you for your review and I can't tell you how much your channel has helped me. I hope you have a wonderful Mothers Day!
Jeanie Witmer , which finishing powder do you prefer using with this foundation? ((Are you still using this foundation ??))
I love it too!
I'm glad I found a more recent video in the hope you read this message Angie because I don't know how else to contact you. I just wanted to say a big THANK YOU!
I have been following you for the last few months (going back through early videos) and I have learned so much about skincare in particular. I have totally changed my routine, ordered products from the USA (I'm from the UK) such as Cerave, Timeless (which is now available in the UK). I also found NIOD/The Ordinary/Hylamide because of you and these products have made an unbelievable difference to my skin - so much so that people are beginning to comment on the change.
My husband and I own a community pharmacy and I find I am advising some of our clients to find you on facebook. Your approach is honest, informative and understandable to those (like myself) whom had little or no knowledge about skincare products. So on behalf of all the 53 year old women in the UK - I THANK you and keep up the good work, it is very much appreciated. x
Thank you for your lovely comment Renata!! xo ~angie
Hi Angie, I have used this foundation for 3 months. I liked it in the beginning for my combination skin, however the warmer weather[Southern humidity] is changing my mind. My T zone will not behave, so I am looking for another foundation. I appreciate all of your videos and I look forward to each one! Happy Mother's Day.
I tried this foundation too and gave it away. I have dry skin and it wasn't that great for me either. For Neutrogena, I prefer the healthy foundation. Thank you and very informative as always. Happy Mothers day to you!
Thanks Vivian, Happy Mother's Day & have a great weekend!
This foundation did the same thing on me. It was very patchy and I found that it started wearing off of my chin after just 3 hours. This foundation is a "No" for me.. Hope you have a Happy Mother's Day!!
I picked up the Australian Gold SS because of you. It would never have been on my radar if not for you! I haven't tried it yet except on my chest, but I remember this brand from back in the day when I was stupid enough to bake myself in the sun!
I myself like this foundation when I'm having good skin days, I use it with the IT cosmetics dual ended brush, but it is so sheer on me I have to use 2-3 coats, and it only lasts around 6 hrs. So, for quick short days, I will use it up, but won't repurchase.
I love this tint so much. 60 is an absolutely perfect match for my skin. I have normal to dry skin and find it hydrating with a lovely finish.
It's not a full coverage foundation, but it evens everything out nicely. It's really nice if you like a BB, natural, smoothing, natural coverage. I can see that trying to make it full coverage wouldn't work.
I love your videos Ang they are so informative. I'm 48 and I have dry skin and I find it's hard to find a good foundation. I've pretty much thrown my hands in the air and use a tinted moisturizer & Becca powder foundation over that and it seems to do a good job. My biggest mountain to climb are my wonderful bags under my eyes that I inherited from my fathers side. Guess it's a work in progress. Thanks for the video!!!
Love all your videos! Great job. Us 50 plus year olds need all the help and advice we can get. So thank you.
Love the hydro boost moisturizers in winter. This foundation sounds sketch. Great tests. I'll pass and stay with Chanel, or L'Oréal bb cream, elta sunscreen and RCMA loose powder. Got a CO2 laser. My results are great. Angie, you are awesome to review the new!
Hi Angie. same here, it was very sheer. I had to put so much on to build it up and looked even worse. I kept it on anyways, went to a training, when I came home you could have fried an egg on it. I wished I've seen your review before I bought it. thank you for all of your videos.
Hi Angie. I really enjoy your channel. I wish you did it more often than Tuesday and Fridays! Thanks for your review. I just bought this based on an article in last months Real Simple magazine. I have normal to dry skin, so I'll give it a try. Happy Mother's Day!!
I appreciate your Foundation reviews - so much information. My experience with this Foundation: I am 44, have normal to dry skin. I use moisturizer w/spf, primer (drugstore), and apply with a damp beauty blender. I also set with powder. It doesn't break up on me, but it does feel tacky w/o powder. I think I have to use more product than usual because it's sheer and because it is hard to get out of bottle (feel like a lot will go to waste). I will use the "entire" bottle but not sure I'll repurchase as I have other more affordable options at drugstore that perform as well or better. 😀
Wishing you a fabulous Mother's Day! I enjoy your videos immensely and learn so much!!
Thank you!!
Hi there 😊
I watched your video because I noticed that you tried neutrogena hydroboost tinted nude 40 and that has been my most abosolute and only favorite for my face as for me it works almost perfect. I was surprised that you had movement and your tinted moisturizer wasnt staying put. Mine does all day, thats why Its still my favorite. Im really thinking that the skin care routine you do and the sunscreen product if you use, might make yours not stay put all day. Im very curious to what products you use prior to putting it on. Mine stays amazing all day. Get a hold of me if you wanna try my routine and then try it. maybe youll end up absolutley love it, like I do. All i know is im very picky and I dont like wearing actual foundation. It needs to look like skin to me or I wont like it. I prefer the nature look. Im just guessing must be other products that your using prior to putting it on? You have me curious now haha 😊
This foundation broke me out horribly! Ugh. Love all your Foundation Friday work!
Appreciation Angie for your honestly. Please continue doing great videos. Bless you
I love your foundation reviews. So thorough and thoughtful! Of ALL the beauty gurus your reviews are the best!
I like this foundation on my skin. I've not had any of the issues you have mentioned. I use a primer, powder and setting spray and it has lasted pretty good for about 8hrs.
Whoa.. I'm in Florida sooo I sweat ALOT yet my skin is so dry & this just made my face look so very dry & that's AFTER a ton of moisturizer! Dry skin mature skin ladies beware this is not hydrating at all. Thanks Angie.. love you for all you do for all of us. Ps. 61 yrs May 17 uggh 😣 This getting old is for the birds!😄😘
I have very dry skin and tried this foundation (comparing it to my Clinique) and it did not work for me. it seemed to emphasize every flaw in my skin, and felt tacky all day. I'm sticking with my Clinique for the summer anyway! Luv ur videos 💖 Sue
I liked it. Although it was not much coverage, I have very dry skin and it felt moisturizing. I used a concealer underneath. It does not get shiny on me.
Oooooooh! Makeup tutorial on this one Angie, please. :) I also read the comment below about hair removal on the face. I have thick darker eyebrows and I get my eyebrows waxed about every three weeks. Since I mentioned to my eyebrow lady that I am using Retin A she will only wax under my brow and does "Gasp! Painful as all get out!" threading on the rest of the brow area, lip and chin. I did have some overly sensitive spots above my brow after a wax treatment that left some "burned" skin so I don't argue with her about the threading but OUCH! I think it may help if I do not use the Retin A for a couple of days before an eyebrow wax/threading. Praying......;)
Love your editing skills lol......thanks for zooming in so we could really see the products......and thanks for giving us your honest opinion❣😊❣
😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥
I wanted to like this one I'm trying very hard. It was one of the best color matches I found. Not so yellows on light skin. But I also find that applying it with a beauty blender essentially pulled it off. Doe foot is a bit of a pain. I'm going to a wedding outdoor reception in FL in June. I need a good foundation!
Thanks Angie. Love foundation Friday.
Been wanting to thank you for recommending the Australian Gold sunscreen. I've been using it and loving it. So nice to find a replacement for my $40 sunscreen and so thankful for all the work you do! ❤️🏆
I just bought a ton of it, too! Can't wait to try it!
Ulta has it at buy one, get one 50% of right now, I'm getting some, too!
Woman of a Certain Age its even sell in Germany. Australien Gold has a Website here. but is has a lot of silicon and plant ingriediens are on the bottom of the list,and it costs the double. nevermind i LL take it for my vecation to Greece to have a double sunscreen und my IT Cosmetics CC Plus Foundation and use it Forms neck and chest.
greetings
Love your videos and love you!!! I love this foundation, I guess what I don't understand is why take a foundation that is meant to be sheer and try to build it up for more coverage, I like it as it is and don't expect it to be more than that....
I love that "doesn't play well with others". I guess I'll be saving my money. Thanks for the info. It's 2017, I'm still waiting for a miracle foundation.
I forgot to mention, you saved me from my continued hunt for the perfect foundation. CHANEL Perfection Lumiere Velvet is also, for me, the Holy Grail of foundations. Thank you!
Hi Ang! this formula is probably just to moisturing for this more humid time of year. Try it again in January...
Overall I like this foundation. I use it with Makeup forever pink primer and blend with a brush. I have normal skin, no blemishes. I will say it isn't a 10 hour wear for sure. I don't use it every day but it does give a nice look. You did raise some good points I hadn't thought of and I agree with you.
Happy Mother's Day Angie! Hope your girls are back under the roof. Another great video. Loving the Australian Gold!! Thanks for all your advise.
Thanks Sarah! My babies are in the middle of finals so they couldn't come home for Mother's Day this year :( I'm going to see my mom since I haven't been with her on Mother's Day in 20 years so that'll be nice too. So happy you love the sunscreen, & Happy Mother's Day! xo ~angie
HotandFlashy Thank you Angie!!
I had been using Giorgio Armani foundation for years-until I saw your review/ video for the Chanel lumiere velvet! Amazing! You converted me! Thanks for the great videos❤️
Angie I can’t thank you enough for saving me the time & money once again on a foundation fail! 🙌🏻I literally had it in my hand at CVS and put it back because I hadn’t watched your review yet! 😂 Glad I waited!🥰
One more comment Angie - after reading about your 'holy grail' foundation (Chanel Perfection Lumiere Velvet) I decided to go and see it for myself at my 'nearest' large shopping mall (3 hour round trip!) - OMG was it so worth the drive, wasn't sure if the velvet would suit as I have quite dry skin but the assistant recommended it over the aqua as I have red thread veins and she said it provided better cover - she put on the primer (Le Blanc De Chanel) which instantly took down the red a notch and then we tried your shade first, the 30 - slightly too pale for me so tried the 40 beige - perfect!!
My skin felt incredibly soft - couldn't stop stroking it, spent hours in the overheated shopping centre, then the long drive home. Normally by that time I can't wait to just take off make -up as my skin just feels dry and uncomfortable but when I went upstairs to wash I looked in the mirror and was astounded at just how well this foundation looked by the evening. I ended up buying two bottles of the foundation and the lovely priming lotion. I spoke to the Chanel assistant about your youtube videos and she insisted on writing down your name. I was quite shocked to learn that nearly all of the make up counters had not heard of the NIOD/the Ordinary brand - they were even more surprised when asked about the active ingredients in their skincare products.
It seems they are given a minimal amount of training (which varies from person to person) on their own products and then that's it - I had a lovely time prattling on about the joys of vitamin C + E, Cerave, hyaluronic acid etc. By tomorrow you should have a band of new followers from Chanel and Elizabeth Arden!
So, once more you have saved me time and money with your recommendations. Now if only you could come to the UK and give me a personalised eye make up tutorial for my 'moving' eyelids (seriously, the skin is literally moving around the upper lid even with the softest brush) - that would be the icing on the cake although you may not appreciate our british climate! x
I'm so happy your 3 hour trip was a success and you love the foundation!! Love the story about you educating the makeup counter ladies on skincare - way to spread the word! I'd love a trip to the UK to play with makeup with you. Have a great weekend! xo ~angie
Thanks, Angie, for another honest review. This one was a no go for me too. Though I could see someone with dry, youthful skin liking it. I would be interested in seeing reviews on the Boots No. 7 foundations. I've heard good things, but the reviewers have all been quite a bit younger than I am and I'm not sure how that will equate to mature skin with fine lines.
thank you angie for your thorough explanation
The Ordinary now has foundation. Any chance you would test it out? Please and thank you! You are so informative 💖
I ordered the foundations & primers a couple weeks ago, it should be here soon!
Nice review Angie I was waiting for this foundation Friday on Neutrogena thanks for doing it 😘😘😘
I recently bought the chanel foundation and it's awesome, thanks for sharing your experiences.
Awesome! So happy you like it!!
Thank you. I wish I would have seen your video before I purchased. Another person said it was good and I thought I was doing something wrong. At least you confirmed my issues.
You do the best foundation reviews of anyone I watch! I sure appreciate the pairing with sunscreens!! 💓💓
Thank you for the review, Angie. We don't have the Neutrogena line of cosmetics in Canada, but I have a feeling I'd skip that foundation anyway, since it doesn't mix well with sunscreen. Happy Mother's Day!
loving all your videos! I don't go shopping for anything new without first watching your videos. I'm getting married in 3 weeks and really undecided about my foundation. I've considered the IT CC cream but also looking at Chanel..then I saw you review on the wet n wild hd! I'm the most indecisive person ever....
Mama123Crazy I wouldn't recommend the It CC cream for your wedding day. It has a beautiful, natural finish, but it lasts MAYBE two hours, tops. I've tried everything to extend the wear of it, but if you have even mildly oily skin, it won't last long at all. I've heard wonderful things about the Estee Lauder Double Wear foundation for special occasions, though I haven't had a chance to try it out, myself. Maybe get a sample and try it out before the big day? Congratulations!
Emily Kallas thanks so much for the advice!! I will definitely take your advice. : )
Thank you for this review!
I bought this when it first came out and there was youtube craze. Thought this would be the answer to my dry/mature skin problems - no. It hates my mineral sunscreen. I'm sure this is fine if you have nothing else on your skin, but like you this did not work for me. Unfortunately, I have found that you are right about most things, Angie (I say unfortunate because often the good stuff is pricey - lol!)
Thanks for another informative video. You really are the best when it comes to trying out products and giving your honest opinion based on results. That being said, I have a question about glycolic acid based upon your recent video on body care. I too felt while watching that video, that the glycolic acid seemed to reduce the crepey and wrinkled skin better than the retinol. Here is my question, what is your opinion of alternating glycolic acid with retin-a? One day retin-a, one day glycolic? I have read that some dermatologists like to go this route after the patient has been on a retin-a regimine for 2 years. Keep up the good work Angie and have a very Happy Mother's Day!
Where glycolic acid and retinol are both OTC, I can see using one over the other, but I'm not sure about subbing OTC glycolic instead of prescription Retin-A... Also, the body glycolic was 12% which is pretty high to use on the face so I'd think in an alternating routine you'd use something in the 5-10% range which would be less effective. I'd do more like 1-2 days of glycolic with 5-6 of Retin-A or a weekly glycolic peel, but you can certainly try alternating. Have a wonderful Mother's Day weekend!
Thanks for the review Angie I have combo skin so I am not even going to waste my money trying it!! I love your videos!! :)
I'm so happy you reviewed this one. I've been debating on trying it.
I am liking this foundation. I use Benefit Porefessionals primer after applying dermaE serum, then use it. My face is glowing in a good way. So glad I tried it. (I am 53) Fairskinned and use #40 Nude. If I use loose powder it is Laura Mercier finishing powder, and if it's pressed powder it is Charlotte Tilbury. PS) trying a different skin moisturizer under may be helpful
What moisturizing foundations do you recommend?
You are a trooper, I would have given up on the makeup after day 2. Thank you for this video.
Your skin is amazing. You are glowing! 💋
What you sacrifice for us testing! Thanks Angie
Loved the review Angie and you look amazing! Great video. I also would like to see a five minute makeup (if that's possible). Have a great Mother's Day!! Beth
Thank you. I have no luck with the Neurogena foundatios. They don't set and transfer like crazyy. I tried the healthy skin one.
Happy Mother's Day Angie! Still hoping you'll try Shiseido Future Solution Lx foundation, I will not buy until I see your review. After skincare, an excellent foundation is the priority if I would sink money into any makeup. Fingers crossed!
Hi Angie - I could tell by your facial expressions at the start of the video that you weren't crazy about this one😃. I picked this product up about a month ago - I'm going on 60 and thought this would work well for my now dry skin. It does go on tacky but compared to other drugstore foundations I thought it worked fairly well on my skin.

Love your channel. I'm not 50 but I share a lot of your stuff with friends and family
I love this foundation but I have combination to dry skin and I live in the west. thanks for your review Angie! you rock!
Hi Angie, hey on a completely different subject can do you review on products to stop lipstick bleeding into lines. I love lip glosses but they run up my lines and I hate that. Love you and your channel. Thank you for teaching me so much.
Yolanda Phibbs Have you tried applying a lip liner before your lipstick or gloss?
Emily Kallas Hi Emily, yes I do but maybe I should reapply every time I put gloss on?
I just LOVE your videos and wouldn't miss a one! My dream video would be a series on your favorite high end/luxury products and then drug store (or at least a lot less expensive) dupes for them. Now THAT'S a video I wouldn't want to miss. Perhaps there ISN'T a dupe for one, which would be informative in and of itself. Or perhaps a drug store item would be your favorite anyway. Thanks for all the obvious work you put into your videos, by the way.
Angie, please let me know if you think 62 yrs is too old for Fraxel. I take care of my skin, and have been told, by many, I could pass for 10 yrs younger (which I take with a grain of salt). About 10 yrs ago I had under eye laser resurfacing and was very pleased with the results. I've had a few health issues and beginning to see more under eye wrinkling, along with crows feet and lip lines. I love your videos although, I'm quite a bit older than you. Thanks much! 💕
I had very similar experience with this makeup. So disappointed because I really wanted to love it. Thanks for the video.
Thank you so much for this review! I was actually debating on this one yesterday but decided to do a little more research. I've learned to trust you 100% so I will pass on this one. ❤️
Thank you so much for this video Angie. It is the one I wanted to try next, but I will now give it a miss. As I am on a budget, your advice is really important to me, as I really don't need to waste my money. Thank you for all the effort you put into your videos for us....Hugs...Bella xxxx🌷🌻🌼🌸
I have this and it works pretty well for me but its a no makeup look, great for casual days. Just don't expect coverage it is much more like a tinted moisturizer
LOVE YOUR REVIEWS! Wish I had seen this before I bought it.
I use this on a regular day- I can only get it to work with fingers for application- but it applies great over my Olay Regenerist SPF 30. I always use powder to set.
This does work for me because I have very dry skin. Regular foundation gets so flaky and dry patches are so visible. This definitely doesn't do that for me.
Can you review the new Chrissy Teigen Glow palette?? It is so pretty! You could find some great uses for it!!
Love you! I have 25 years old and you help me a lot with my skin. Kisses from Brazil
I've tried their Hydro Boost lotions and they make me break out too! Thanks for your videos - they really are helpful 😊
Hi Angie, love your videos!! Could you do a video on facial hair removal? You never seem to have any at all, have you had any facial hair removal procedures, just wondering. You are just so beautiful, inside and out!!
I could but I'm not sure how much help I'd be in the facial hair removal area... I'm naturally very fair and fur-free so I don't do much beyond plucking my eyebrows...
ive got one coming up
Cathy Burger - there are a few youtubers who have face shaving videos - try uppiesbeads. I use the Braun face epilator which reduces vellus fluff enough for makeup to go on nicely. Don't wax if you use retin A. Some ladies do threading, but I'm more of a do-it-yourself person to save the $$. 💋
maryann conti - thanks for your input, I will advise a friend who isn't keen on the epilator 💋
plucking hair out of your face is a bad idea. it causes inflammation in the skin tissue. a dermatologist that i follow recommends using one of those small facial shavers. i now do this and i love it. i use it all over my face to remove peach fuzz and those pesky dark hairs. it's great for exfoliating and makes your foundation go on like a dream. btw, i'm a cosmetologist and i have studied the hair, skin and nails extensively- believe me when i tell you, shaving your hair does NOT make it grow back any thicker or darker. if you don't believe me, look it up. there is evidence that supports this. i know it's hard to believe because it's something that our mothers told us when we were growing up, but it's just not true lol. the other good alternative is to get laser hair removal. good luck to you!
You do such excellent reviews Angie - thank you. When possible, I would love you to review The Ordinary foundations. They have so many shades that I wouldn't know which to choose.
I'm waiting for my Ordinary foundations & primers to come in! They're having problems making it fast enough, so I sure hope it's THAT good!!!
HotandFlashy I ordered my Ordinary foundation on April 30th & I'm still waiting too. I got an email yesterday containing an apology about the delays that pretty much said it was going to be even longer because the demand for this stuff is astronomical. I'm patiently waiting because if it's as good as the hype I'll be hooked!
WOW over 200,000. Congrats Angie!!!!!!
Great review. I don't wear foundation because I live in the south and it would melt off in 10 minutes outside. I appreciate all the time you put into your review. TFS
Jami Womack tinted sunscreen like skincueticals might work for you.
Great review as always Angie!
I was wondering if you were going to do some more Friday foundation reviews. Thanks xo
