So I'm a Clinique beauty advisor and I was just looking up some videos to get some more tips and words can not even express the way I felt when I just saw my absolute favorite make up artist, Kandee Jhonson appear on a video about our beyond perfecting foundation. After watching the first couple seconds and she was expressing how much she loved it I had to pause it to do a happy dance and just freak out about how excited I am that I actually sell this product that she loves so much. Especially when she said that she wishes that she was a Clinique spokes person lmao I was like that's me!! But anyways..this is my favorite foundation as well and I am just insanely happy after seeing this. I'm 23 years old and have loved her since I was about 14 just getting into make up and watch her constantly. This is like the best day ever!! lol Thank you!!!!!!!!((((((:
I know this is old but I've been wanting to try it. I don't have access to getting it but only online. I'm a 2Y06 on Sephoras IQ but it takes me to buttermilk but it doesn't say it's a match. Is that the closest match, though?
I just wanted to thank you. I have struggled with finding the perfect foundation for years. I just happened to see your video explanation and decided to watch it...best choice ever!! I LOVE Beyond Perfect, you were so so right! Thank you, it has changed the way I feel about my face and I feel fantastic!
Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Setting Powder is/was my fave until I discovered Clinique Blended Face Powder (comes with a brush, but don't bother using it b/c it's terrible). The Clinique one controls my oil better and makes my skin look flawless! The Laura one does too, but I feel like the Clinique one goes the little extra mile. :)
After watching this video on my hour long lunch break, I used the remaining 45 minutes to run to Macy’s in the mall and buy this foundation. The way Kandee’s skin looks in the thumbnail made me watch this video, and I immediately thought “why bother watching this, we probably have drastically different skin types”. Turns out this foundation is literally amazing for oily skin. I bought this Friday; I’ve worn it every day since. I apply Philosophy Hope in a Jar then wait 5 min., then I apply Dr. Brandt Pores No More Primer and wait 10 minutes finally I apply this foundation with a damp beauty blender. I don’t need any concealer on my face other than under my eyes (MAC Pro Longwear), and I set with translucent Coty Powder, dust off excess powder and finish with MAC Fix+. This routine gives me a full coverage flawless matte finish that looks like skin for over 10 hours. It doesn’t oxidize, separate, transfer, get blotchy or wear off. It leaves my skin silky soft, my blush, contour and highlight look beautiful over the top and it really minimizes my texture from scarring. I’m in Chicago, so the real test will come in July to see if it can withstand our humid summers. I highly recommend this foundation, its $27.00 for a ton of product with fantastic coverage.
YOU SAVED MY LIFE !!! I have acne since 4 years and i NEVER found a good high coverage foundation, i tested mac, ysl, dior EVERYTHING but this one... it's just PERFECT!
Kandee girl I am in love with your videos. I have been subscribed to you for about 2 years now and you're talent and creativity never fails to WOW me. I just scrolled all the way down to the first video you ever filmed. And to see how far you've come since then just really inspires me to follow my dreams. I am 19 years old and have 3 children under the age of 3 so following my dreams sometimes seems nearly impossible. I can't thank you enough for all of your hard work and dedication to TH-cam and your followers. I hope to one day be as successful as you. Much love!! Holly ❤️
I tried a sample of this from Sephora in the lightest shade possible but it was way too orange for my skin. I have very pale skin with red undertones so finding a medium to full coverage foundation that matches is incredibly difficult. The only one I've found that works well is the Kat Von D foundation. I also have hypersensitive skin so I really have to watch what I use or it will make me break out, even if it's says is dermatological tested and non-comedegenic.
+shdwstrm I am the same super pale skin with pinky red tones... I tried this and i actually got the powder version of it, it is still a bit too orange but with another powder on top it works. its so hard to find anything full coverage for pale people.. or red undertones..sigh
+182MsAshley yah so many foundations are either too yellow or too dark. I have yet to find a holy grail foundation that matches my pale skin perfectly. The Kat Von D is pretty much a match but it can be pretty heavy. The struggle is real! 😄
+shdwstrm I have very fair skin with a yellow undertone, but I do have a lot of pink in my t-zone area. I find that foundations with a more yellow undertone hide the redness better.
+shdwstrm I am pale as well, even the new MUFE ultra hd where they came out with paler shades than before...to dark lol. Do you remember the shade you got because they have a shade called .5 breeze that is really pale, it was released maybe september, they extended the color line. Also have you tried too faceds born this way in snow? That is next to try on my list.
+sarahmichelle yes! I used to work at clinique and this stuff is great with rosacea(as I have it too) Even the powder version works to cover rosacea. Its the same line, beyond perfecting. Check them both out.
I'm SO glad you did this review!! I seriously can't wait to try this foundation! I'm like you, I love the full coverage/doll like skin too! This sounds amazing.My vote for an upcoming review video would be your favorite self tanner(s)!
A beauty sponge (BB or knock-off) IS the best way to apply foundation to my dry skin. I've tried so many different brushes and none work as well as my beauty sponge. Love it! One question: I have super dark under eye circles. Should I use a corrector and then apply this foundation/concealer or should I apply the foundation, corrector and then concealer? Thanks so much, beautiful! :)
+Michelle Mac you always want to use foundation first then the thicker heavier products like creams and concealers on top! Like the icing on the cake of your face! xoxox
I bought this a few weeks ago because you raved about it.. randomly picked a shade offline and it so happens to match my skin perfect! I am obsessed with it too I will definitely be buying it again after it this bottle runs out. love you kandee!
+Cindy Webb In my opinion, it's just as much full coverage but not dry and heavy looking like Double Wear can be. I love double wear because I need full coverage but I liked this a little bit more.
Double wear is my holy grail as well. I always have good skin days when I use it. And I have DRY skin. So the longer I wear it it looks better and better bc the little bit of oil that does come out makes it look natural borderline "dewy"
+lizluna88 get a sample first. it works different for different people even with the same skin type. It's all about what your using and how your skin reacts to it.
I am a clinique consultant and I just wanted to thank you so much kandee for giving this awesome foundation the credit it deserves! Clinique as a brand does not get enough attention in the beauty community, and I think it's so awesome to see the brand I work for working so well for my favorite makeup artist! Huge hugs love!!!
you always make me run out to the store to buy things. I'm currently looking for the perfect foundation, so i'll give this one a shot! Thanks for the video :) xo
I love this video mainly because you show how effectively it works and how to get it to work so well. You can really tell the difference! Btw, you blend everything so perfectly, even on to your ears.
I got a sample from Sephora. The coverage is awesome and it feels like silk on the skin. But I noticed it wearing off my nose and chin a lot quicker than say Revlon ColorStay. I have combo oily skin. I used a damp beauty blender to apply and set it with Makeup Forever pressed powder. Any tips on keeping it in place longer?
Primer. I had this problem with other foundations. I was using a Mattifying primer with a luminous foundation and it would split on my chin and nose throughout the day. Try using just a basic primer under it like MUFE hydrating or Marc Jacobs coconut primer
+olivia heringer I've tried all sorts of primer and it's as if it causes the foundation to rub/slip off even quicker. Mauve I've tried the wrong types for my skin. Thanks for your help!
+stephandesme123 I've tried Urban Decay All Nighter and the one by MUFE with no luck but that was with other foundations. I'll give it a go with this one. Thanks!
Thank you so much for this video after watching this yesterday I went out and purchased this foundation. Today was my first full day of wearing this in the operating room for 12 hour shift and I am ecstatic ...I have never worn a ton of makeup , my skin changed this past year and I have been loving the Coola and bare minerals tinted moisturizer but just not enough coverage all the time. I have literally tried everything out there and returned it for one reason or another but this is my Holy Grail for the first time in my 47 years ....I applied the stila one step color correcting , brightening primer under it .....I have dry skin, minimal pores and minimal fine lines nothing drastic ...This is not heavy feeling at all and just evened out my skin beautifully . Thank you for trialing this for us.
Oooo girl you know I have to try this foundation now!! 😍 you look fabulous as always!! Can you recommend a great translucent setting powder? Thanks bebe! Xo
I love this foundation as well. I noticed you kept using it and raving about it. One day, I received an email from Sephora that it was a 100 point perk and you better believe I got one! I am in love with it and ordered the full size. Nothing else like this!
Love the review! I couldn't agree more...I've been using this for about 3 months now. It is one of the few foundations that hasn't caused me to breakout. Looks flawless all day.
Yes I love it too! I am 48 years old and so far for me this is the best! And to think that at 18 years old Clinique was the first makeup brand that I bought. Thanks always Kandee!
I don't think the foundation wand was meant for the full application of it. just like you don't use the concealer wand to blend out your concealer. why would anyone even try that. its just to take it from point a -(the bottle) to point b- (your face) and then go in with your foundation brush or sponge. duh
I mean, yeah most people wouldn't use the wand like that simply because it seems more of a hassle compared to using a brush or a sponge but it's makeup. You can take it off at the end of the day and it's not that serious. People can wear makeup however they like and they can also put it on however they like. So saying people don't have common sense if they want to use the wand like that is rude and insulting to others. And I would rather have "no common sense" than being rude.
Lindsey Hull lol its not that deep dude. And I wasn't even the one who said people didn't have common sense. So you can run along with your sensitive self somewhere else thanks..
I love being apart of your "family". I follow you on snapchat as well. You always give me the inspiration and strength that I need. I'm so happy that I found you when I did. When I enter a contest I get so nervous and then I watch one of your videos and I feel a lot better. Thank you so much for everything!
How about the foundation from Marc Jacobs - Remarc-able foundation that for me is just pure bomb!!! ♥♥ thanks for your great review! I've got that foundation too, but I fell in love with Marc Jacobs! :) xoxo ♥
Marianne Bieber that's right; u need like a tiny amount of that foundation - the size of a pea and it's just amazing; the less you apply the perfect it will look; and it stays put on the whole day if you put a primer underneath - such as the infallible l'oreal 24h!

+Yohanna Del'heaumeau hi :D go to my youtube channel please and please follow me :*
I bought this because of your suggestion and I've been loving it! I normally use Double Wear from Estee Lauder, for like, the past 15 years, and I've replaced it with this- never thought I'd see the day! Thank you for your recommendation!
+Kandee Johnson I love your videos!! Can you do another real time get ready with me? Those are always so much fun, and I play them when I'm doing my makeup in the morning hahaha. Love you!
+Kandee Johnson Benefit's High Beam, Sun Beam, Bene Tint, Posie/Cha Cha/Lolli Tint, etc... your review and how/how not, when/when not, where/where not to use them!
I just bought this foundation last week at your suggestion and I LOVE IT!!! I seem to always have a hard time finding my perfect foundation, but this is it! Thank you for sharing the love!
+avilia gomez yes, you just have to use a setting powder and you'll dry right up! Always use powder after you put on your foundation, even for people with dry skin, they need to SET the foundation by using a powder after! xoxo
+Kandee Johnson I've tried the Clinique mat foundation years ago for us oily girls. It would oxidate in two hours how does this foundation hold up for oily girls? Ps. I adore your personality and soul. Have a good day!
Probably you need to apply a primer to eliminate the oiliness, then apply the liquid foundation , and then the loose powder foundation, just a little bit, to seal everything, it sounds like a lot, but it's not, and your make up will last looking beautiful all day.
So I have seen your other videos where you talk about this foundation and how amazing it is. MAC Pro Long wear has always been my holy grail foundation...until now! I bought this at ULTA a couple weeks ago and let me tell you girl I will never use another foundation again! I had a hard time with matching but I mix two colors together to get the perfect shade. Thank you for introducing me to this foundation! It's a new holy grail!!
You have great skin with a youthful look. I feel the foundation put a few years on you to be honest, and I seriously think your look better with no foundation at all! Eep sorry! I admit it's a great foundation coverage wise but really, you barely need makeup at all.
+Olga Podobed I see so many girls with that full coverage look. I think covering imperfections is all a woman needs. Enhance the natural beautiful skin, don't cover it up completely! Lisa Eldridge had the right approach I think. She tells you to embrace what you have and enhance all your good features and lightly conceal the imperfections etc. makes sense!
I have oily/combo skin and I LOVE this foundation. I do find that if I use a moisturizer I feel a little greasy after an 8 hour shift at work. But, if I skip the moisturizer then it's fab!

+joann gutierrez hi :D go to my youtube channel please and please follow me :*
I use it a lot and I'm VERY oily but I always make sure to prime with a Matt primer, it depends how oily you get but you may see it being a little oily after a couple of hours around the t-zone arena but just powder and it should be fine :) it's a great prodcut
Can't wait to try this! I would love to see a review on your favorite tinted moisturizer or BB cream for a natural "summertime" look. I don't like as heavy of a foundation in the hotter months, plus I have freckles that I don't always want to cover up.
"This is kind of yellow, but thats what you want, you dont want a shade that matches youre skin" WTF!!! I love your videos but girl, thats like 2 shades too dark for you!
cuz in her mind darker yellow foundation cancels out the redness and freckles in her skin ! but she only need (( light yellow tone )) shade and it well do the same job without being too dark ...
+bella Jane Cavallaro Well it does not ... but I'm used to see her like that and after she blends it it looks good. Just isn't the best advice to give to your subscribers... many can take it the wrong way. i think what she ment s "don't match the redness on your face , go with the color that's on your neck/shoulders" I say shoulders cause sometimes neck can be too light especially if you have long hair and no sun has ever hit that spot.
+Nini Sørensen Yep it's almost like she's doing black face. And that for a supposed make up artist. A real make up artist would never use the wrong color and more importantly never advice to use too dark foundation.
This foundation is my life, I love super high coverage foundation and this just hits the spot for me!!❤ Its gonna take something special to come along for me to swap my foundations up, so happy to see you using it as I haven't seen many other youtubers that I watch using it!
Try tearing off a small amount of aluminum foil and putting all foundations and concealers on that. I dab my beauty blender in and its all so much more hygienic. I rarely get pimples now :)
You're so right about this foundation, Kandee! I got a sample of it the other day because of the little clinique bags you get if you buy something over a certain price. It makes my skin look flawless, but not cakey/foundation-ie. People don't even notice that it's the foundation, they think my skin is just like that! I think it will be perfect for formal events, and feels light enough to be worn during the day. Even at the end of the day my foundation is flawless (my skin oil does show thru, tho, but my skin is SUUUPER oily and I don't really blot during the day- even with the oil on my skin the foundation still stays in place). Thanks so much for this review, Kandee! I hope to buy the full size to this foundation. Love ya, Kandee
Just bought this tonight & im obsessed!!!! I've never been a Clinique lover till now! I've tried so many foundations and they always make me break out, they oxidize baddd or a few hours later my face looks patchy. Can't wait to test this out tomorrow while I'm shopping all day :). Xoxo. Love your vlogs. You're on of the first makeup gurus I subbed to yearssssss ago!!! 😘😘
Kandee I bought this Clinique Beyond Perfecting a couple months ago and LOVE IT! I want to thank you for the makeup videos. I never thought I could find a full coverage foundation that would look this good, I even went out and bought a blender to apply it. I share your links with all my friends they say you are Amazing! And You Are! 😁❤️
Kandee is so right (of course)! I use it & love it. I have combination skin which tends to be more oily throughout the day than not but still love the coverage this gives without feeling cakey. I have to lock it in with a setting powder as well or it slips around. Clinique makes really great makeup. I think people associate as "old lady makeup" or something but they're pretty on it with a lot of things! I love their Take The Day Off makeup remover (have been using that for ages) & their toner is awesome too- another ride or die for me. Thanks for the video Kandee! Nice to see makeup artists using these brands!
So I went to get color matched for this because of your review. My mom was with me and was so impressed by the results, she bought some too! I love it!!
Yes! I got a sample of this in one of their Clinique gift sets after buying the usual skin care products. Wasn't planning on using it until I forgot my stage makeup one day & it was the only thing I had. Was so shocked how beautiful my skin looked, held up well under the stage lights & huge musical numbers. I remember getting home around 3 am after closing night & was shocked how beautiful it still looked. The director even commented on my "glowing skin" during notes.
Just found you on youtube recently. I saw this video last week and I'm gonna be trying this foundation. I love love love all ur makeup tricks and tips. Thanks!!!
I have used MAC studio tech for years. After watching your daily make up video I bought this. BEST FOUNDATION EVER!! I am so in love! Thanks for the great advice!!
I'm so excited to see a review about a full coverage foundation for dry skin! I've recently started to use the MUFE HD foundation stick. I would love your take on that as well. Huge hugs and kisses 💜💜.
LOVE this foundation! I have tried so many foundations and never have fallen in love with one like this one. I have normal to oily skin and it works perfect. I also have redness and some acne scaring this foundation covers it all. So worth the buy! Love it!
Love that Clinique is all about creating/maintaining healthy skin, but really love the fact that they also offer a full coverage (oil free) makeup for those who prefer or need a full coverage. Looks great on you!
i got this a month or so ago and i have dry, acne prone, sensitive skin and this is a LIFE SAVOR. dewy and full coverage and its amazing!!! thank you so much i would have never tried this if it weren't for you.
Yes! I love this foundation! I've been wondering why no one has been talking about this one. I've been raving about it for months. So happy to see your review😄. Hugs, Chrissy
I have been using this foundation for a year and love it. I have a couple of shades which I mix together to match my skin through the seasons. My skin is on the dry side and have not experienced any problems. My daughter used this on her wedding days and it stayed flawless. Cannot recommend this foundation enough. Thanks for the video loved it. Xxx
Hi Kandee!....l love Clinique products as well...you suggested something really helpful and thats to use a Primer! You're so exciting to hear, you break everything down....just fun and easy learn! Keep it coming!
I'm so glad you did this video. I've been looking for a really good foundation. I was wondering if you could do a video of you skin care routine? Thanks again for the vid!!
I purchased this around the holidays and I love it! It is full coverage, but I spread it out so that it is more sheer. Although, it is full coverage it is very light as you mentioned in your video. I also acne prone skin and I have not had any foundation induced breakouts while wearing this foundation. You also look gorgeous as usual! kisses and hugs
I just purchased this yesterday and put it on literally 5 minutes ago and I've never seen a foundation look so phenomenal on my skin before. I need to pick up a good translucent powder but I have some bad acne scarring from my teen years and adult acne that pops up from time to time and it absolutely masks all of it. I want to cry because I've haven't seen my skin look so perfect since I was, I don't know, 12? Ugh. Thanks so much for the recommendation.
I love this! I purchased it because of your review and it is the best foundation I have ever used. It covers so well and does not dry me out. Thank you♡
I decided to try this foundation after watching one of your other videos and I love it! I've tried a couple of different foundations and none of them have ever worked as well as this one. I also decided to try the Marc Jacobs coconut primer and I love that too! Thanks so much Kandee!
I watched your favorites of 2015 yesterday and went to the store and bought it right after!!! Trying it today! I have acne and scars so I'm super excited for the coverage!!!
I bought this foundation based on your recommendation and.....OMG I LOVE IT!!! So wonderful. Between that and learning about the Beauty Blender, I feel like it's totally changed my makeup routine but in a great way. I've had a hard time with liquid foundation in the past but this is AMAZING!
I have worn clinque since I was 16 and I love it because it's fragrance free and when I saw this foundation I bought it and I absolutely love it. It gives me the coverage without being cakey. So in love with this product also!
I was looking for a new foundation and after seeing your video I decided to try the Clinique one. And it really is AMAZING. I bought it in linen and I'm so in love with this foundation, I've never seen anything like this before !! Thanks so much for this great video !! :)
Thanks so much for this! I've been searching for a new foundation and you've sold me on Clinique. It's been forever since I've tried that brand and can't wait. This is the perfect price point that I can support ☺️
I have a lot of acne scarring from when I was a teen and discoloration, sensitive oily skin, you name it. I tried this foundation on your recommendation and omg. Anyone who loves full coverage really needs to try this. So cheap compared to a lot of other foundations too.
i bought this foundation today because of your review. i live in germany and ist is sometimes really hard to find foundation in stores that are not drugstore. many times you have to order it online and you can not swatch the colors on your skin and see how it looks. i got lucky today and bought this at a store after the lady that workes there matched me =) as soon as i was at home i did my make up. i am really impressed, because it is the first foundation i tried that looked good in my car mirror. all my other foundations look powdery or patchy or sitting in fine lines that age you like +30 years in my car mirror. Thanks so much for your recomendation, you showed me a whole new world and changed my make up game =) love you so much and please stay always positive.
I tried this stuff a couple months ago and i was amazed!!! I don't have the best skin in the world. I have acne and acne scars and with one layer it makes my skin look amazing!! I've gotten 2 of my friends try it to because i told them how amazing it was! You can literally buy 2 of these foundations for the price of one high end foundation! I'm just as obsessed with this product as you!! ilysm
I am glad you did a review! ever since you had started raving about this.. I looked to buy it. couldnt find a good color match for me. But I did buy one for my mom and she loves it!
So I'm a Clinique beauty advisor and I was just looking up some videos to get some more tips and words can not even express the way I felt when I just saw my absolute favorite make up artist, Kandee Jhonson appear on a video about our beyond perfecting foundation.

Kandi has been on TH-cam for 9 years!?
I know this is old but I've been wanting to try it. I don't have access to getting it but only online. I'm a 2Y06 on Sephoras IQ but it takes me to buttermilk but it doesn't say it's a match. Is that the closest match, though?
Kandee has been my favorite person on You Tube for over 10 years! Love her!!!
@@mistytells I'm just a makeup/product junkie, but I can tell you online is always hit or miss unless you already know.♥️♥️

I LOVE Beyond Perfect, you were so so right! Thank you, it has changed the way I feel about my face and I feel fantastic!
Please do a review of good translucent powders!!!!!!
The Laura Mercier loose translucent powder is definitely great.
They have that brand on Zulily.com today!
MAC translucent powder. Little goes a long way!

Can't wait to try this foundation. It looks so natural on you, thank you for this review. Love you :x
I have acne Rosacea so I've got to try this foundation!
My name is Sarah and my middle name is Michelle! 😂
I do as well and this foundation is well worth the bucks!
+sarahmichelle yes! I used to work at clinique and this stuff is great with rosacea(as I have it too) Even the powder version works to cover rosacea. Its the same line, beyond perfecting. Check them both out.
Indigo Hart Laura Gomes Thanks ladies, I will definitely check it out!! I'm also sorry to hear that you both suffer from Rosacea. It's dreadful...
Sarah & Em. Hahaha. Great name! 😉😄
Yassss this is my fave foundation! I can't believe more people haven't been talking about this!! Xx
If Kandee says it's good then it must be good...can't wait to try 🙌🏻
+BeautyBiteXO💋 I heart you gorgeous!
I'm SO glad you did this review!! I seriously can't wait to try this foundation! I'm like you, I love the full coverage/doll like skin too! This sounds amazing.My vote for an upcoming review video would be your favorite self tanner(s)!
A beauty sponge (BB or knock-off) IS the best way to apply foundation to my dry skin. I've tried so many different brushes and none work as well as my beauty sponge. Love it!
One question: I have super dark under eye circles. Should I use a corrector and then apply this foundation/concealer or should I apply the foundation, corrector and then concealer? Thanks so much, beautiful! :)
use the corrector first
I use the Bobbi brown salmon corrector right after priming, before any foundation/concealer and it works great!
Michelle Mac - check out the Makeup by Layla video that she just released. She is shown using foundation first, then corrector and then concealer.
It's one of the Applying Makeup Like A Pro series.
+Michelle Mac you always want to use foundation first then the thicker heavier products like creams and concealers on top! Like the icing on the cake of your face! xoxox
bought this foundation specifically because of this video, and it did not disappoint! i'm so in love!
she sometimes sounds so much like Lolli from OINTB 😭
so glad I'm not the only one who thought that lol
Omg!!! Yes!
Yaas she totally does!
Oh. my. god. EXACTLY.
Yeahhh she really does!!!!
I bought this a few weeks ago because you raved about it.. randomly picked a shade offline and it so happens to match my skin perfect! I am obsessed with it too I will definitely be buying it again after it this bottle runs out. love you kandee!
How would you compare this to the Estée Lauder Double Wear Foundation?
Great question!! X
+Cindy Webb In my opinion, it's just as much full coverage but not dry and heavy looking like Double Wear can be. I love double wear because I need full coverage but I liked this a little bit more.
+karamka hmmm see I use doublewear and thought about trying this but now idk after reading your comment lol. my doublewear is my holy grail!
Double wear is my holy grail as well. I always have good skin days when I use it. And I have DRY skin. So the longer I wear it it looks better and better bc the little bit of oil that does come out makes it look natural borderline "dewy"
+lizluna88 get a sample first. it works different for different people even with the same skin type. It's all about what your using and how your skin reacts to it.
I am a clinique consultant and I just wanted to thank you so much kandee for giving this awesome foundation the credit it deserves! Clinique as a brand does not get enough attention in the beauty community, and I think it's so awesome to see the brand I work for working so well for my favorite makeup artist! Huge hugs love!!!
you always make me run out to the store to buy things. I'm currently looking for the perfect foundation, so i'll give this one a shot! Thanks for the video :) xo
I love this video mainly because you show how effectively it works and how to get it to work so well. You can really tell the difference! Btw, you blend everything so perfectly, even on to your ears.
I got a sample from Sephora. The coverage is awesome and it feels like silk on the skin. But I noticed it wearing off my nose and chin a lot quicker than say Revlon ColorStay. I have combo oily skin. I used a damp beauty blender to apply and set it with Makeup Forever pressed powder. Any tips on keeping it in place longer?
Maybe try a setting spray after you powder if you aren't! (:
Primer. I had this problem with other foundations. I was using a Mattifying primer with a luminous foundation and it would split on my chin and nose throughout the day. Try using just a basic primer under it like MUFE hydrating or Marc Jacobs coconut primer
+olivia heringer I've tried all sorts of primer and it's as if it causes the foundation to rub/slip off even quicker. Mauve I've tried the wrong types for my skin. Thanks for your help!
+stephandesme123 I've tried Urban Decay All Nighter and the one by MUFE with no luck but that was with other foundations. I'll give it a go with this one. Thanks!
I haven't personally tried this foundation but if it dries matte try the Becca matte primer. It's amazing :)
Thank you so much for this video after watching this yesterday I went out and purchased this foundation. Today was my first full day of wearing this in the operating room for 12 hour shift and I am ecstatic ...I have never worn a ton of makeup , my skin changed this past year and I have been loving the Coola and bare minerals tinted moisturizer but just not enough coverage all the time. I have literally tried everything out there and returned it for one reason or another but this is my Holy Grail for the first time in my 47 years ....I applied the stila one step color correcting , brightening primer under it .....I have dry skin, minimal pores and minimal fine lines nothing drastic ...This is not heavy feeling at all and just evened out my skin beautifully . Thank you for trialing this for us.
Hey Kandee! Should oily skin girls look at purchasing this foundation?!
OHH EMMM GEEEE!! I bought this foundation in Alabaster on Friday and I am in LOVE!! It is everything you said it was Kandee! So excited about this!
application starts at 3:23
BEST. FOUNDATION. EVER. Just bought it the other day because of this video and i am forever thankful!!!! It's amazing.
Oooo girl you know I have to try this foundation now!! 😍 you look fabulous as always!! Can you recommend a great translucent setting powder? Thanks bebe! Xo
I love this foundation as well. I noticed you kept using it and raving about it. One day, I received an email from Sephora that it was a 100 point perk and you better believe I got one! I am in love with it and ordered the full size. Nothing else like this!
KANDEE! I love you, always have, always will BUT GIRL...half of your xmas lights are burnt out, get it together!! 😂😂
Love the review! I couldn't agree more...I've been using this for about 3 months now. It is one of the few foundations that hasn't caused me to breakout. Looks flawless all day.
Love her personality tbh
+karyme I love YOU!
+Kandee Johnson can u plzzzzz make a make up collection video??? luv u xxxxxxx
Yes I love it too! I am 48 years old and so far for me this is the best! And to think that at 18 years old Clinique was the first makeup brand that I bought. Thanks always Kandee!
I don't think the foundation wand was meant for the full application of it. just like you don't use the concealer wand to blend out your concealer. why would anyone even try that. its just to take it from point a -(the bottle) to point b- (your face) and then go in with your foundation brush or sponge. duh
Yeah I was thinking the same thing and surprised that she even tried it.
She was just saying!! some people doesn't have common sense so she just made sure lol
michelle hughes well I'm glad we're the few that do have common sense.
I mean, yeah most people wouldn't use the wand like that simply because it seems more of a hassle compared to using a brush or a sponge but it's makeup. You can take it off at the end of the day and it's not that serious. People can wear makeup however they like and they can also put it on however they like. So saying people don't have common sense if they want to use the wand like that is rude and insulting to others. And I would rather have "no common sense" than being rude.
Lindsey Hull lol its not that deep dude. And I wasn't even the one who said people didn't have common sense. So you can run along with your sensitive self somewhere else thanks..
I love being apart of your "family". I follow you on snapchat as well. You always give me the inspiration and strength that I need. I'm so happy that I found you when I did. When I enter a contest I get so nervous and then I watch one of your videos and I feel a lot better. Thank you so much for everything!
Kandee what foundation shade is this??
I haven't tried it yet....but i'm gunna!!! Thanks for the recommendation! xo
How about the foundation from Marc Jacobs - Remarc-able foundation that for me is just pure bomb!!! ♥♥
thanks for your great review! I've got that foundation too, but I fell in love with Marc Jacobs! :)
xoxo ♥
+Moe Taquino yesss that foundation is like pure pigment
Marianne Bieber
that's right; u need like a tiny amount of that foundation - the size of a pea and it's just amazing; the less you apply the perfect it will look; and it stays put on the whole day if you put a primer underneath - such as the infallible l'oreal 24h!
+Yohanna Del'heaumeau hi :D go to my youtube channel please and please follow me :*
I tried this after you recommended it in one of your other videos and I LOVE LOVE LOVE it! It's so amazing. I literally tell everyone i know about it.
Are you still collabing with Kat Von D? I'm definitely in the market for a new foundation that won't come off my stinking nose!
The chin is my problem spot.
+Ally V yes! even when I use the kat von d foundation it comes off my nose :( Even when I set it and use a beauty blender
I thought I was the only one that my foundation comes off my nose
+Ally V hi :D go to my youtube channel please and please follow me :*
+bkzg3mz718 mine always comes off on my nose lol
I bought this because of your suggestion and I've been loving it! I normally use Double Wear from Estee Lauder, for like, the past 15 years, and I've replaced it with this- never thought I'd see the day! Thank you for your recommendation!
What other products would you guys like me to review next, face products, lip products, eye products, let me know!!! xoxox
+Kandee Johnson I love your videos!! Can you do another real time get ready with me? Those are always so much fun, and I play them when I'm doing my makeup in the morning hahaha. Love you!
Japonesque!
+Kandee Johnson Benefit's High Beam, Sun Beam, Bene Tint, Posie/Cha Cha/Lolli Tint, etc... your review and how/how not, when/when not, where/where not to use them!
It Cosmetics CC cream :)
I purchased this foundation and loved everything but the color. I am forever too pale and cool toned for almost every brand. :(
I just bought this foundation last week at your suggestion and I LOVE IT!!! I seem to always have a hard time finding my perfect foundation, but this is it! Thank you for sharing the love!
I work for Clinique and the applicator is meant to just dot the foundation on your face, not to fully use it as a foundation brush/sponge xD
+whosyourmagster oh good! It's perfect for that!!!
+Kandee Johnson omg i cant believe you replied :D
Love this!!! I actually got this foundation as a sample from Sephora and fell in love. Ironic that you posted a video on it!!
I love this foundation coverage but it makes my face really shiny is there anything I can do to make it less shiny?
+avilia gomez yes, you just have to use a setting powder and you'll dry right up! Always use powder after you put on your foundation, even for people with dry skin, they need to SET the foundation by using a powder after! xoxo
Okay thank you!!!!!
+Kandee Johnson I've tried the Clinique mat foundation years ago for us oily girls. It would oxidate in two hours how does this foundation hold up for oily girls? Ps. I adore your personality and soul. Have a good day!
Probably you need to apply a primer to eliminate the oiliness, then apply the liquid foundation , and then the loose powder foundation, just a little bit, to seal everything, it sounds like a lot, but it's not, and your make up will last looking beautiful all day.
Use a mattifying primer and setting powder and use blotting sheets
So I have seen your other videos where you talk about this foundation and how amazing it is. MAC Pro Long wear has always been my holy grail foundation...until now! I bought this at ULTA a couple weeks ago and let me tell you girl I will never use another foundation again! I had a hard time with matching but I mix two colors together to get the perfect shade. Thank you for introducing me to this foundation! It's a new holy grail!!
You have great skin with a youthful look. I feel the foundation put a few years on you to be honest, and I seriously think your look better with no foundation at all! Eep sorry! I admit it's a great foundation coverage wise but really, you barely need makeup at all.
totally agree! i'm like 'oh, your skin WAS so nice before, and you looked like 20 yo old girl' :) don't like it.
+Olga Podobed I see so many girls with that full coverage look. I think covering imperfections is all a woman needs. Enhance the natural beautiful skin, don't cover it up completely! Lisa Eldridge had the right approach I think. She tells you to embrace what you have and enhance all your good features and lightly conceal the imperfections etc. makes sense!
I'm also obsessed with this! I used it on my wedding also and pictures came out flawless.. so foolproof! Hope they never stop making it!
Is this ok for oily skin too?
+joann gutierrez It's made for dry to combination oily skin types :-)
I have oily/combo skin and I LOVE this foundation. I do find that if I use a moisturizer I feel a little greasy after an 8 hour shift at work. But, if I skip the moisturizer then it's fab!
+joann gutierrez hi :D go to my youtube channel please and please follow me :*
I use it a lot and I'm VERY oily but I always make sure to prime with a Matt primer, it depends how oily you get but you may see it being a little oily after a couple of hours around the t-zone arena but just powder and it should be fine :) it's a great prodcut
Can't wait to try this! I would love to see a review on your favorite tinted moisturizer or BB cream for a natural "summertime" look. I don't like as heavy of a foundation in the hotter months, plus I have freckles that I don't always want to cover up.
"This is kind of yellow, but thats what you want, you dont want a shade that matches youre skin" WTF!!! I love your videos but girl, thats like 2 shades too dark for you!
+Nini Sørensen i always noticed that about her foundation color choice .. and it bothers me alot T_T
cuz in her mind darker yellow foundation cancels out the redness and freckles in her skin ! but she only need (( light yellow tone )) shade and it well do the same job without being too dark ...
looks like it matches her neck perfect ?
+bella Jane Cavallaro Well it does not ... but I'm used to see her like that and after she blends it it looks good. Just isn't the best advice to give to your subscribers... many can take it the wrong way. i think what she ment s "don't match the redness on your face , go with the color that's on your neck/shoulders" I say shoulders cause sometimes neck can be too light especially if you have long hair and no sun has ever hit that spot.
+Nini Sørensen Yep it's almost like she's doing black face. And that for a supposed make up artist. A real make up artist would never use the wrong color and more importantly never advice to use too dark foundation.
This foundation is my life, I love super high coverage foundation and this just hits the spot for me!!❤ Its gonna take something special to come along for me to swap my foundations up, so happy to see you using it as I haven't seen many other youtubers that I watch using it!
I want to try this but this kind of applicator is not really hygienic
You can put it on the back of your hand
+Nancy Zhang hi :D go to my youtube channel please and please follow me :*
+Nancy Zhang yeah kinda like how lipgloss grosses me out! ha ha ha But you can pour it out too!
I have a feeling I'm gonna make a mess lol, but I'll definitely try this out!!!!!!
Try tearing off a small amount of aluminum foil and putting all foundations and concealers on that. I dab my beauty blender in and its all so much more hygienic. I rarely get pimples now :)
You're so right about this foundation, Kandee! I got a sample of it the other day because of the little clinique bags you get if you buy something over a certain price. It makes my skin look flawless, but not cakey/foundation-ie. People don't even notice that it's the foundation, they think my skin is just like that! I think it will be perfect for formal events, and feels light enough to be worn during the day. Even at the end of the day my foundation is flawless (my skin oil does show thru, tho, but my skin is SUUUPER oily and I don't really blot during the day- even with the oil on my skin the foundation still stays in place). Thanks so much for this review, Kandee! I hope to buy the full size to this foundation. Love ya, Kandee
I just tried this for the first time and you're so right! I got so many compliments on my makeup and I know it was this foundation!
I bought this for Christmas because you have talked about it...& I LOVE IT!!!!! it literally changed my foundation game!
Just bought this tonight & im obsessed!!!! I've never been a Clinique lover till now! I've tried so many foundations and they always make me break out, they oxidize baddd or a few hours later my face looks patchy. Can't wait to test this out tomorrow while I'm shopping all day :). Xoxo. Love your vlogs. You're on of the first makeup gurus I subbed to yearssssss ago!!! 😘😘
Kandee I bought this Clinique Beyond Perfecting a couple months ago and LOVE IT!
I want to thank you for the makeup videos. I never thought I could find a full coverage foundation that would look this good,
I even went out and bought a blender to apply it. I share your links with all my friends they say you are Amazing! And You Are! 😁❤️
Kandee is so right (of course)! I use it & love it. I have combination skin which tends to be more oily throughout the day than not but still love the coverage this gives without feeling cakey. I have to lock it in with a setting powder as well or it slips around. Clinique makes really great makeup. I think people associate as "old lady makeup" or something but they're pretty on it with a lot of things! I love their Take The Day Off makeup remover (have been using that for ages) & their toner is awesome too- another ride or die for me. Thanks for the video Kandee! Nice to see makeup artists using these brands!
So I went to get color matched for this because of your review. My mom was with me and was so impressed by the results, she bought some too! I love it!!
Yes! I got a sample of this in one of their Clinique gift sets after buying the usual skin care products. Wasn't planning on using it until I forgot my stage makeup one day & it was the only thing I had. Was so shocked how beautiful my skin looked, held up well under the stage lights & huge musical numbers. I remember getting home around 3 am after closing night & was shocked how beautiful it still looked. The director even commented on my "glowing skin" during notes.
Just found you on youtube recently. I saw this video last week and I'm gonna be trying this foundation. I love love love all ur makeup tricks and tips. Thanks!!!
This is my favorite foundation! I'm in Breeze, the lightest shade. I use it every day and it doesn't break me out! Fantastic!
I would love a video of what makeup to 'invest' in and which you would be ok to be 'cheap' with!
Just bought it this morning and I am OBSESSED.
+Justine Morrow You're gonna love it!
I have used MAC studio tech for years. After watching your daily make up video I bought this. BEST FOUNDATION EVER!! I am so in love! Thanks for the great advice!!
I got this foundation recently due to your rave reviews on it and I love it. The long lasting full coverage is amazing!! Thank you!!
I'm so excited to see a review about a full coverage foundation for dry skin! I've recently started to use the MUFE HD foundation stick. I would love your take on that as well. Huge hugs and kisses 💜💜.
LOVE this foundation! I have tried so many foundations and never have fallen in love with one like this one. I have normal to oily skin and it works perfect. I also have redness and some acne scaring this foundation covers it all. So worth the buy! Love it!
I always learn SO much every time I watch your videos, no matter what they're about. Thank you for that!❤️
+Polished By Amy I love you!
My favorite foundation!! When I wear it, people say I look so much younger. I'll take it! Love you Kandee!!!
I'm so excited to try this! I just took my estee lauder test for clinique to be a rep at my ulta! wish me luck!! I'm so pumped for this!
love you!
Love that Clinique is all about creating/maintaining healthy skin, but really love the fact that they also offer a full coverage (oil free) makeup for those who prefer or need a full coverage. Looks great on you!
i got this a month or so ago and i have dry, acne prone, sensitive skin and this is a LIFE SAVOR. dewy and full coverage and its amazing!!! thank you so much i would have never tried this if it weren't for you.
Yes! I love this foundation! I've been wondering why no one has been talking about this one. I've been raving about it for months. So happy to see your review😄. Hugs, Chrissy
You've convinced me! Getting the now and hoping my skin will look as lovely as yours!
I have been using this foundation for a year and love it. I have a couple of shades which I mix together to match my skin through the seasons. My skin is on the dry side and have not experienced any problems. My daughter used this on her wedding days and it stayed flawless. Cannot recommend this foundation enough. Thanks for the video loved it. Xxx
Hi Kandee!....l love Clinique products as well...you suggested something really helpful and thats to use a Primer! You're so exciting to hear, you break everything down....just fun and easy learn! Keep it coming!
I'm so glad you did this video. I've been looking for a really good foundation. I was wondering if you could do a video of you skin care routine? Thanks again for the vid!!
I purchased this around the holidays and I love it! It is full coverage, but I spread it out so that it is more sheer. Although, it is full coverage it is very light as you mentioned in your video. I also acne prone skin and I have not had any foundation induced breakouts while wearing this foundation.
You also look gorgeous as usual! kisses and hugs
I just purchased this yesterday and put it on literally 5 minutes ago and I've never seen a foundation look so phenomenal on my skin before. I need to pick up a good translucent powder but I have some bad acne scarring from my teen years and adult acne that pops up from time to time and it absolutely masks all of it. I want to cry because I've haven't seen my skin look so perfect since I was, I don't know, 12? Ugh. Thanks so much for the recommendation.
Yay!!! It's the best
Watched this video yesterday and went and picked it up today. think I found my new go to foundation! thanks for sharing!
I love this! I purchased it because of your review and it is the best foundation I have ever used. It covers so well and does not dry me out. Thank you♡
finally broke down & got this after watching all your videos on it... I LOVE IT! it's my new holy grail.
I decided to try this foundation after watching one of your other videos and I love it! I've tried a couple of different foundations and none of them have ever worked as well as this one. I also decided to try the Marc Jacobs coconut primer and I love that too! Thanks so much Kandee!
Kandee I went straight to Sephora. You seriously should get commission.
I watched your favorites of 2015 yesterday and went to the store and bought it right after!!! Trying it today! I have acne and scars so I'm super excited for the coverage!!!
I bought this foundation based on your recommendation and.....OMG I LOVE IT!!! So wonderful. Between that and learning about the Beauty Blender, I feel like it's totally changed my makeup routine but in a great way. I've had a hard time with liquid foundation in the past but this is AMAZING!
I have worn clinque since I was 16 and I love it because it's fragrance free and when I saw this foundation I bought it and I absolutely love it. It gives me the coverage without being cakey. So in love with this product also!
I would love to see you do a GRWM on the eye makeup you have on, I must say it's one of my very favorite.
I love this foundation! I got it because of you, and I get so many compliments on it!
I was looking for a new foundation and after seeing your video I decided to try the Clinique one. And it really is AMAZING. I bought it in linen and I'm so in love with this foundation, I've never seen anything like this before !! Thanks so much for this great video !! :)
Thanks so much for this! I've been searching for a new foundation and you've sold me on Clinique. It's been forever since I've tried that brand and can't wait. This is the perfect price point that I can support ☺️
I have a lot of acne scarring from when I was a teen and discoloration, sensitive oily skin, you name it. I tried this foundation on your recommendation and omg. Anyone who loves full coverage really needs to try this. So cheap compared to a lot of other foundations too.
i bought this foundation today because of your review. i live in germany and ist is sometimes really hard to find foundation in stores that are not drugstore. many times you have to order it online and you can not swatch the colors on your skin and see how it looks. i got lucky today and bought this at a store after the lady that workes there matched me =) as soon as i was at home i did my make up. i am really impressed, because it is the first foundation i tried that looked good in my car mirror. all my other foundations look powdery or patchy or sitting in fine lines that age you like +30 years in my car mirror.
Thanks so much for your recomendation, you showed me a whole new world and changed my make up game =) love you so much and please stay always positive.
I tried this stuff a couple months ago and i was amazed!!! I don't have the best skin in the world. I have acne and acne scars and with one layer it makes my skin look amazing!! I've gotten 2 of my friends try it to because i told them how amazing it was! You can literally buy 2 of these foundations for the price of one high end foundation! I'm just as obsessed with this product as you!! ilysm
I am glad you did a review! ever since you had started raving about this.. I looked to buy it. couldnt find a good color match for me. But I did buy one for my mom and she loves it!
Just bought this and the matching powder foundation earlier. So excited to use it for work tom! 😄
