I absolutely love when I'm watching a video where the person just gets giddy over makeup. It's what makes me love Emily Noel so much. You can just tell how much she loves it. Robert Welsh is like that too. When he does like 1st impressions and find a really good product he gets giggly and excited. I love that. I'm the same way.
Yes, please do wear tests as often as you can. How long a product lasts is one of the biggest determining factors as to whether I buy it. If I hear that it does not wear well or is not long lasting that’s a no go. I love when TH-camrs share this info or take shots of themselves at the end of the day so we can see how the makeup lasted.
I love how you talk about the potential marketing and positioning the brand might have in mind behind the products - I’ve never seen anyone else do this & it’s so refreshing to have it contextualized in that way! Helps you be a smarter consumer - keep it up!
That CT compact not only sounds cheap but it also rattles and moves around. I was so disappointed with the quality that I returned the product. CT should repackage that highlighter. High end products have to be luxurious in order to justify the exorbitant prices. Great review Amanda.
I thought I was alone with the Mario foundation. It settled into all mine fine lines, clung to my patches, and the shimmer omg the shimmer!!! You can clearly see silver shimmer and when the foundation wears down all you are left with is the shimmer 😕 the only thing I liked was the color match but I had to return it
If I could also make a wish for what kind of video you might can make in the future: For example, I love your very long videos in which you swatch and demonstrate all your wet looking eyeshadows. Maybe you have so many new eyeshadows by now that you could make a sequel? It helped me a lot when I was making buying decisions.
Love the car check in! The natural light and seeing the makeup in a real life setting is so helpful! Please do it again in the future! 💜 Ps that’s happened to me at target before, the girl wanted to see my recipt right away and studied it like a book lol #didntstealit 😅
The Kevin Aucoin eyelash curler is my favorite, too! Just saying they could go away makes me nervous. But you’re right, I can’t think of any new releases in forever.
@Balletified I wanted it so bad. Even went to sephora picked out a shade...but I just didn't like the way it looked. There is just so much hype. I only tested it on my hand but I didn't like how it felt or settled in my lines on my hands.
SO FREAKING GLAD I didn't buy that MBM foundation. Nope, I'll stick with my Shiseido Radiant Lifting and Make Up Forever Reboot. Thanks for the check ins, I loved it!!! Also, please do get giddy over makeup LOL. That's why we're here, we all do!
I'll be interested to hear your thoughts on the Chanel. I tried it and hated it and couldn't believe it was so hyped, especially considering the price. Also not trying the MBM foundation for the many reasons you've cited. Keep the foundation reviews coming.
I have a similar skin tone to yours and also very dry skin with dark hollow eyes and I gotta tell you, the second lightest shade of the rare beauty under eye brightener has become a holy grail everyday product which I use before my Saie concealer or my kosas concealer. I LOVE how naturally bright my under eyes look with these two! Highly recommend trying the second lightest shade as it does great correcting my darkness. For someone living in extremely cold climate and dry skin, it has been a life saver 🤌🤌
Wow! I'm loving this look girl. The eyeshadow is stunning, along with the lipstick and the blush. Great color payoff from all three products also. Unfortunately, the eye shadow didn't stand the test of time, but it started out so good. Waah!
I love your channel and you’ve changed my eyeshadow game BIG TIME, so thank you! NO ONE does wet eyeshadow reviews like you Amanda💕 I would love to see you include wear tests and respectfully, my opinion only would like zero political statements. I’m only speaking for myself but feel inundated by politics and watch videos like yours to get away from it. Thank you for introducing so many of us to wonderful products and likewise saving us money when a product has issues🥰
Something I've gotten into over the past year is using either auric glow lust or the tarte shape tape glow wand under the eye instead of concealer. It reflects enough light that it makes my under eye look bright & smooth. I absolutely love it! I wasn't interested in the mbm foundation before & now I'm definitely never going to be! As someone with extremely textured skin, this sounds like a nightmare! 💀
I AM IN LOVE WITH THE BLUSH! I have it in Candy Clouds (the bright cool toned bubblegum pink) and I am obsessed with it! It's the pink blush of my dreams 😍💘 That ELF bronzer looks amazing on you! Thanks for the review of the foundation it seems frustrating and I'm glad I can avoid it thanks to others testing it out
I feel like your highlight placement emphasizes your orbital bone and that makes the hollows under your eyes stand out. I would love to see you try different placement. Basically parallel to your bronzer application but a bit lower than you currently apply highlight, if that makes sense I think you might love it!
Looking forward to hearing your review of the channel foundation! Ive been wanting it for a while but can’t justify the money. Every recommendation from you ive loved! I have normal skin. Like hydrating/ dewy foundation light or medium coverage. Love your videos Amanda !!!
Please review Danessa Myricks Eye Gloss. I am sooo curious about it and you are my go to for glossy, creamy eyeshadow recommendations. What do you think?😊
The CT packaging has become cheap and tacky ever since the brand was sold. I was stunned and disappointed with the Hypnotising Pop Shot packaging - it was/is a nasty, cheap plastic, adorned with tacky, fake "gems" - AND, they were pricey!!!
loved this longer video, loved the check in in the car, loved the zoom in on your face with your green background and studio lights! Can't wait for your chanel foundation review.
I like the idea of a comparison video, have you considered comparing it to other highlighters asides from the rare beauty? perhaps the hourglass ambient strobe lighting powders and becca highlighter (smashbox) to name a few popular/holy grail highlighters
My undereye situation has me considering buying that $100 Sisley concealer ttsandra is always talking about. I’m realizing that I need more peachy pigment to cancel out my circles, and a lot of products designed for my fair skin just have too much white in them. (For example, the beauty pie corrector didn’t work that well.)
if you're willing to consider drugstore, LA girl concealer has a range of colour correctors - idk if I'd use that formula for entire concealer, but I do appreciate
I had the same issue with correctors. Most lean more pink than peach. I’m a medium olive so IDK if my recommendation will work for your fair skin but the Lancome peach corrector leans more orange than pink and it has become my holy grail. Bobbi brown has great corrector shades too. I find drug store options always have too much white pigment to make them opaque so they dont correct dark circles, they just create a grey cast.
Yes Amanda, your friend Kackie is a seductive but trustworthy sort, and is almost successful at leading me down a dangerous path to the Chanel Sublimage foundation that's her rapture. But I've just purchased my twentieth jar of Bare Minerals OG Original mineral powder foundation, to which I've been a loyalist for over twenty years. I love how it floats over a BB cream or a tinted sunscreen or a tinted moisturizer, and I don't know that the Chanel would be as effective. Or the Shiseido for that matter. But I'm also thinking about a new YSL foundation recently reviewed by Shelly over at Geek Out of Water, so when I can't decide, I do nothing. Love that golden brown sweater on you - you wear that color very well, and quite often the brown tones are your best! Thanks for this video, and do say hello to dear Kackie!
The thing that keeps me from buying the Chanel foundation is knowing that it is scented. I hate when beauty products have a strong fragrance, which is good because otherwise I’d be owning a $135 jar of foundation thanks to Kackie 😂😂
@@melissakessler77 I just can't get behind luxury products being so heavily scented. People are often like "oh but it goes away right away" no it does not to my nose! Plus it's never a scent I like in the first place.
Hi Amanda! Which one would you choose between the new Rare Beauty highlighter and the new one from CT? I have the one from Rare Beauty and now I'm thinking if I should get the new one from CT. Thank you! ❤
Thanks to you I discovered the Sephora twinkle twinkle shadow which for me is dupe for the middle sparkle in the MBM palette. I am sad I just discovered ot last week as I would return the damn palette if I would know about the twinkle twinkle gem earlier. I hate the mattes in the palette and only kept it for the sparkles.. oh well, life🤣🤣
Hourglass packaging is so much better for around the same price. Also, even if they may be different sizes, CT powder, bronzer, and now highlighter are all the same looking at a glance.
I loved the elf luminous putty bronzer on you but not so much on others. Maybe it has to do with the brush you used. This blush however I don't think is the best shade. Just seems to bring out redness in pale skin. I'd like to see other shades though!
You saved me from purchasing this foundation! I was so close to buying it. Random aside: you follow my ferrets on TikTok and that makes me so happy 😁😂 Last year when I saw that you started following them I was like no way!
I have mixed feelings about that foundation. I’ve only worn it a handful of times. I feel like I’ve been putting too much on. I’ve been using my Bobby brown face base as well and I feel like it helps. I also use the same sponge as you. The Sonia kashuk ones. I feel like I haven’t been letting mine dry enough so the foundation separates around my mouth.
...really appreciate that you pick up the most recent releases and give an honest review....👍🏻 Hope you got some in PR. I'll look to see if I can get that new eyeshadow brand here 🇨🇦 ooops maybe not ! Yes for sure the Charlotte Tilbury packaging pthththth and the way it spins. It sounds like cheap packaging...👋🏻😄
After the initial wave of youtubers doting on the Mario foundation, there have been a few ppl with the texture issue. I am living for Haus Labs right now.
I had a cream grungy brown color exact same color from Mary Kay many years ago from the early 2000’s. I loved it so much. Not into Mary Kay anymore though.
Kevyn Aucoin has been jumping from owner to owner in recent years. Barely any new products in maybe even years? Save for repackaging and a new mascara and brow product. The Sensual Skin Enhancer, lash curlers and volume mascara are popular enough that they may keep the brand afloat even though you barely see or hear anything about Kevyn Aucoin lately...
I’ve been wearing the rare beauty brightener alone and love it. It sets down after a light dusting of my givenchy powder and doesn’t crease. I almost bought the hype on the Mario foundation but decided against it. I just don’t like his products.
Angie from Hot & Flashy didn’t like the foundation either. My HG foundation is the Dior Forver Matte. Doesn’t settle into my pores and it doesn’t break down. I have normal to oily skin with rosecea and the foundation covers my redness and feels very light on my skin.
So many others loved Makeup by Mario Surreal skin, but it didn't work well for my large nose pores (sebaceous filaments) and oily, textured skin. This was a huge disappointment for me. If I had seen your video first, I might not have wasted my $$$ on it. I also like the CT Face Architect Highlights. With oily skin, I only like powder highlighters, and the new CT ones are sculpting and brightening but subtle and wearable for every. I adore the Rare Beauty ones, but they are definitely like crystal unicorn sparkle glass-cheek strobe lights and more for going out or to be more dramatic. I'll have to check out Ritual de Fille...what about Phytosurgence Weathered Woods eye collection? Those are awesome grungy colors and long-lasting for me even with my oily skin and even oily eyelids.
I got the MBM foundation and used a blurring primer and powder, still did not live up to the hype. I just feel like it could be better especially for the price. I’m going to return it and try something else. Thanks for your thoughts!
Actually, I have not seen any new releases from Kevin Aucoin. Also, I been seeing a lot of products on discount and that's not a good thing for a brand usually.
Do you feel like the Charlotte Tilbury highlight is similar to the coverfx perfect light powder in moonlight? It is my holy grail but discontinued, I am desperately searching for a dupe 😭it is so hard to find a highlight that is similar that doesn't have any chunky glitter.
I loved the makeup by Mario Foundation! 1 pump it’s too much for the intire face! I have very dry Skin and looks amazing but if You put to much foundation it’s gonna be heavy on the face!
Have you ever tried Moira Beauty? I heard someone say the Starshow Shadow Pot are a dupe to the Charlotte Tilbury Eyes to Mesmerise. I also hear the Lucent Cream Shadow are like the Colourpop Supershock Shadows and the Diamond Dazzle Liquiid Shadow are really good too. I would love you opinion (especially on the shadow pot). They're also drugstore prices
@@AmandaZ I forgot to mention, they also have some pretty good blushes judging from the reviews. They say the Loveheat Cream Blushes are a dupe for the Tower28 Cream Blush
Have you tried the Haus Labs Foundation by any chance? Did it also intensify texture? I know most people seem to be comparing the two since they're the newest high-end foundations.
Also disappointed with MBM foundation! Poor wear time with straight up glitter😮. Totally relate to the cheap vs expensive ‘sound’ of packaging! Lol! Love the longer videos!
I like the Mario foundation but TBH I’ve used it with a pore filling primer and I never really checked if it still accentuated my pores, I don’t think I did 😅 I am sad it didn’t work out for you since I was really curious about your thoughts Also I bought a active wear too from target and walked out with the sensors and awkwardly went back to get them off 😂
I absolutely love when I'm watching a video where the person just gets giddy over makeup. It's what makes me love Emily Noel so much. You can just tell how much she loves it.

I also like seeing make up in different lights too eg in your studio vs in your car
Me too I have redness that tends to creep through makeup so very interested in how long products wear
I love how you talk about the potential marketing and positioning the brand might have in mind behind the products - I’ve never seen anyone else do this & it’s so refreshing to have it contextualized in that way! Helps you be a smarter consumer - keep it up!

Maybe you have so many new eyeshadows by now that you could make a sequel? It helped me a lot when I was making buying decisions.
I've used Mansai off and on for awhile. Their multi-use cheek and lip colors are good. A less slippy formula and they have some interesting colors
It's odd to add little shimmer particles to a foundation. I want to be dewy or glowly and not see shimmer particles all over my face
Love the car check in! The natural light and seeing the makeup in a real life setting is so helpful! Please do it again in the future! 💜 Ps that’s happened to me at target before, the girl wanted to see my recipt right away and studied it like a book lol #didntstealit 😅
The Kevin Aucoin eyelash curler is my favorite, too! Just saying they could go away makes me nervous. But you’re right, I can’t think of any new releases in forever.
When I’ve seen other influencers use the MBM foundation they were trying to be positive but IMO it looked bad, even on camera.
@Balletified I wanted it so bad. Even went to sephora picked out a shade...but I just didn't like the way it looked. There is just so much hype. I only tested it on my hand but I didn't like how it felt or settled in my lines on my hands.
I didn’t like the way MBM foundation looked. It looked like too whitewashed mask on the skin.
I love your comments on the sound effects of the packaging at the end. It's so true!
I really like the Kevin acoin neo highlighter. Its really natural and healthy-looking, so underrated imo
I love the Neo Bronzer, too!
SO FREAKING GLAD I didn't buy that MBM foundation. Nope, I'll stick with my Shiseido Radiant Lifting and Make Up Forever Reboot. Thanks for the check ins, I loved it!!!
Also, please do get giddy over makeup LOL. That's why we're here, we all do!

Need to review it soon!! Tried it for the first time today
i also got the Chanel recently, and it is now by far my favorite foundation!
@AmandaZ OMG I can NOT wait for that review. I have been wanting to pull the trigger but I want to see another influencer love it also.
i love the manasi blushes. have used them for years.

Love Kackie and have also been thinking about that foundation. Excited to hear your thoughts on it, I'm looking forward to it!
Loved this!!! As soon as I saw the mica in the MbyM foundation I noped out - much happier with my NARS Radiant :)
Great video! Love to see honest reviews especially regarding the Make up by mario foundation! Xx
Looking forward to hearing your review of the channel foundation! Ive been wanting it for a while but can’t justify the money. Every recommendation from you ive loved! I have normal skin. Like hydrating/ dewy foundation light or medium coverage. Love your videos Amanda !!!
Would you consider trying the eyeshadow again with a primer? Super curious to see if that helps.
Please review Danessa Myricks Eye Gloss. I am sooo curious about it and you are my go to for glossy, creamy eyeshadow recommendations. What do you think?😊
Loved the packaging click-off! 😂❤ great video! X
I love the wear test content and the notes on the sounds of makeup packaging! You’re so right about how off-putting cheap-sounding compacts are. 💯
Don’t be insecure! I LOVE the visceral reactions!!
The Surreal skin works great for me. Seems to be a polarizing product to say the least. Love your channel!
Haus labs is like that. I've seen a load of bad reviews, but I get on so well with it
I love these longform videos! I would also love to see a comparison with the new Charlotte Tilbury highlighter compared to others in your collection!
It is VERY similar to the Makeup by Mario highlighter in pearl. CT moonlit glow is almost the same as pearl, but slightly more white tones
The case comparison was very funny also a lil extra 🤣 😂
The CT packaging has become cheap and tacky ever since the brand was sold. I was stunned and disappointed with the Hypnotising Pop Shot packaging - it was/is a nasty, cheap plastic, adorned with tacky, fake "gems" - AND, they were pricey!!!

I really wasn't expecting exactly this from them but wow it was a wonderful surprise !!
Wear time check ins are great!! Please do “trying viral reel/tiktok trends” too ❤ Try posting 10-15 min videos along with such long videos too

I’ve been using the Sisley concealer for years and love it. A little goes a long way.
I’ve been using it as well and it has been the best thing for my hollows. The price is insane but it will last forever.
Elf just came out with a new corrector. They make excellent products. I am pretty sure it's $4. Might be worth a shot

"certain sounds are cheap and certain sounds are not cheap" is so true lol
The sublimage le Teint foundation is wonderful for me but I’m 57 so maybe you should consider that, ask your mum to try it or someone older.

Can you compare the tower 28 mascara to the milani one in the teal tube? I want to buy one or the other. Love your channel ❤️

What brush did you use with the Charlotte Tilbury highlight? It diffused the glow so well!
Is the Rare product meant to be used without concealer?

Have you tried the Haus Labs Foundation by any chance? Did it also intensify texture? I know most people seem to be comparing the two since they're the newest high-end foundations.
Yes I have tried it and it also wasn’t great on my texture 😢
@@AmandaZ Oh no 😭😭😭 I'm hopefully 2023 will have better releases for us textured girlies 🩷
Also disappointed with MBM foundation! Poor wear time with straight up glitter😮. Totally relate to the cheap vs expensive ‘sound’ of packaging! Lol! Love the longer videos!
❤️❤️❤️
There's actually a Surreal Skin foundation by Surratt. The exact same name
❤❤❤❤❤
I like the Mario foundation but TBH I’ve used it with a pore filling primer and I never really checked if it still accentuated my pores, I don’t think I did 😅 I am sad it didn’t work out for you since I was really curious about your thoughts
Also I bought a active wear too from target and walked out with the sensors and awkwardly went back to get them off 😂
✨ New sub!✨
I find sublimage drying even though it’s supposed to be hydrating. I much prefer No. 1 de Chanel
What shade are you in the sublimage? Also I found if I use the pore diffusing primer by rare beauty with the MBM foundation I like it better.
