I found it when looking in Ulta. I am 54 with very dry, sensitive skin. And I have liked it so far. And I wear alone. No primer, or setting spray. It looks really nice. Your just a pleasure to watch, and hear your view. Have a blessed life, always! May God bless, and keep everyone, every where!!
I found this when we were on vacation in Florida in August and it's almost gone! I love it. I'm 57, with fine lines and wrinkles, combo/oily skin, and use tretinoin nightly. Filmed a video about it 3 weeks ago. I'm pretty small, so almost nobody is talking about it. LOL
I'm 57 as well (soon to be 58). I don't really have oily skin, maybe just a bit in the T zone during the hot summer, but I tend to be dry in the wintertime. Do you think this would be a good option for mature, non-oily skin? Just headed over to your channel and subscribed. Gotta support another Mature Beauty!
@@sandyrice3559 I think it's worth a try. I'm oily in the t zone. Maybe use a hydrating primer, especially in your drier areas. Let it set down before putting the powder on so it doesn't just stick to the first place you pit it.
I love how you divide the face in half to show the difference of how it wears!! So helpful! Thank you!! Yeah, Taylor Wynn used it over a tinted sunscreen. It looks great!
I love this powder, I got it a few weeks ago to use as a setting powder after foundation, and it is amazing. Goes on smooth, blurs my pores, doesn't feel or look cakey/heavy on my skin, and just gives a nice finished look to my complexion.
I have been a bareminerals powder foundation user for years... I would consider giving this foundation a try. I'm praying for love, light, peace & joy to fill you, your family & your home!
I have this in the Vanilla shade. While I do like it, it doesn't have near the coverage that the elf powder foundation, or my all-time fave Makeup Revolution Satin Matte powder foundation. Just over sunscreen, I feel a bit too much of my rosacea peeks out. But over my Maybelline Fit Me Matte + Poreless it works beautifully and really does blur everything. And it's $6!! If I'm in a real hurry, I'll use the elf or MR over my SPF and be done with it. But on a regular day, I'll continue using it over my foundation. Another great video - Love, Peace, Joy & Light to you, as well!!
@@noneofurbusiness5223 I've been SO happy with their powder foundation for years!! I'm not sure if they just discontinued those foundations (which kills me!!) or if the company is in trouble! I just went to their site directly and it's amazing how many foundation & powder products they're out of. They have other powder foundation options but nothing that looks like what I'm used to. SO not happy.... so unless you're one of the only shades Ulta has left... you might be left out, too!
you are the one youtuber who actually thoroughly tests waterproof claims and i am so grateful for it! i usually never comment but i couldn't let this go un-noted haha. you are a real vacation saver!
Wow ! Thank you so much for this! I use Glo minerals and have never found a dupe anywhere close to this! So so appreciative of your showing this option!!!
Would love to see this stacked up against the L’Oréal Infallible 24 hr powder. Which seems to be the GOAT 🧐 Thanks for always including your shades cuz your shades are mine! 🥰
I have both and love both of them! I work in a hot kitchen so I tend to use the loreal one for work and this essence one for weekends. Their both great tho!
I really need to pick this up. The only place that sells Essence in my area is CVS and the store is so sad that the Essence display has been exactly the same for 3 years!! The only thing they ever restock is the Lash Princess mascara!!!
I’m 58 and my Holy Grail foundation since the early 90s has been MAC Studiofix Powder foundation. The price just kills me now so I’ve been looking for a drugstore replacement. There’s 2 L’Oréal powder foundations that I like , but the Essence has a price that can’t be beat! I just ordered it thanks to you!
That foundation looks gorgeous on you! I live in Europe, and it takes "forever" before we get "new" launches from brands like Essence. This one I will be waiting eagerly for. Thanks for yet another great video! ❤️
Zabrena I love it when you mention waterproof products, because I too am here in FLORIDA. If a "waterproof" makeup can survive our humidity and climate, then it deserves the credit. Love it when you really put that claim to the test. Also, I had to rewind the video a few times when you zoomed in around 3minutes, because I was distracted by the blue flashlights you have for eyes!! Damn lady your eyes are so blue and clear. Just lovely!! As always I love your channel. I've been a subscriber for about 11 years, when I stumbled on your "Historically accurate makeup" playlist from wayyyyyy back in the day lol. I gotta say, your channel has never changed. You've always been so easy to learn from and relatable on your channel. The down-to-earth vibe always rings loud and I just love it. Keep up the good work babe!! Xoxox from Tampa
Ohhhhh I'm gonna have to give this a go! Right now I use the IT Cosmetics powder foundation which is around 30 or 40 dollars..I cant remember the exact price..but ya this looks fabulous and for 6 bucks! I hope this will work for me but if it don't I won't be upset for buying it for that price and if it does work my wallet will love me. Thanks for sharing and your skin looks great without makeup!
Omg too funny! I reviewed this powder foundation when it first released and literally have not put it down since! I wear this all the time and I am NOT a powder foundation gal (usually). I have oily dehydrated acne prone skin and bought a back up. So ya I agree, it's THAT good!
New subscriber and wow, I’m impressed with you! You actually went in the shower and did super close ups. In addition, everything is affordable. Thank you for keeping it real. I would definitely try this.
you have naturally beautiful skin, you really don't need foundations and powders. the other elements are helpful but frankly i think it's pointless for you to wear anything on your skin. maybe you could advise on tints and moisturizers. But I will be trying this product, it looks promising.
I’ve been wearing this Essence powder foundation for a couple months now, and it’s awesome!! I feel like it blurs the pores better than HIGH END powder foundations! Save the money and get this one instead, if you like using powder foundations! 😍 OH! And I use the L’Oreal Magic Perfecting Base underneath … amazing primer to smooth out pores! 😁
Thanks so much for this! I just added it to my Ulta cart. Been searching for a good drugstore powder foundation to wear over tinted sunscreen & the Loreal one is hard to get a match & too expensive to buy multiples. Can't wait to try this. I also just bought the ELF duo brush for that exact purpose. 🙂
I'm 57 years old and I don't think it would do anything but get in my lines and pores. I think I will pass on this one. Thanks for sharing! You have beautiful skin by the way!
Thank you for this!!!! I love powder foundations, but at my age, 58, a lot of them are cakey. At this price I can afford to try it and not worry about it, but I am ever hopeful! Kudos, my dear! You are a gem💎
I like to put vitamin E on my face and let it sink in before I apply the powder foundation. I use Bobbi Brown, but at that price point, I need to find something less expensive
My skin is normal, leaning to the oily side on the t zone. I find powders to be more flattering than liquid foundations bc I can ALWAYS see those on my skin, except for the Revlon Candid Photoready foundation 😍 which comes with like 5 filters and I can't see it or feel it on; it's awesome! Definitely this powder foundation is one I'd give it a go.
I love this powder and have been using it all summer! The only con for me is that my oily skin gets really oily with this powder in just a few hours. However, it does blur the skin and look beautiful when applied. I did find it has a weird faint smell. Like a chemical or crayon smell to it. It also runs really pale in shades.
Yes! I've seen lots of people showing this product for the last four months. Whenever I see anyone have a title like this I can't wait to learn about about something new, but every time it's something already really popular.
The pretty natural foundation by essence is bomb too so cheap Essance is L'Oreal which is Estee lauders brand or Dior I cannot remember U cannot go wrong it's just the kids brand or budget to L'Oreal and loreals budget the big guys U cannot go wrong I remember when they were putting it in shops the lady was like this is great get all the eyeliners lip liners it's the best 🎉
Agree..my skin is so dry also wrinkles from hell.snyway I tried the elf powdered foundation and it was aweful so cakey and strange ..I'm sticking to old school because I'm old school over 60.,😁
I love the look of this powder it's not cakey and looks skin like despite being a powder. I'd definitely give it a shot. God Bless you hunny. Hope you're having a blessed day. Love ya. 💛
Hi, Zabrina!!!! Thank you so very much for this video. I love to use powder foundation for work because I must be there to work with the physician very early, so I really have 5 minutes to do my face😢. I am so grateful that you reviewed this. But could you also do a Beauty Creations powder foundation review????😊please and thank you 😊 I would really love to see you do a full face review of beauty creations, as it is very affordable 🎉. I absolutely adore your videos, so honest and never negative. Also, thank you, thank you, THANK YOU for NOT ever cursing!
I will have to add this to my list. I have been enjoying the JCat aquasuance powder foundation. Give it a try.. ☺️ Thank you for your reviews and positive vibes!
Came to the comments to see if anyone else mentioned the J cat powder. 😊 I’m in Canada so it’s not readily available and I came across it on a trip to the grocery store. So sad it’s not something they carry regularly. Going to try to get my hands on the Essence powder.
I have used bare minerals for the last few years because it was the only powder foundation I found that didn't look like I had applied it with a spoon. Of course bareMinerals is not cheap, so I am excited to try this find as I also have oily skin and large pores. Thanks for your research and suggestions
Never tried the powder foundation by Essence. I use the Laura Geller (LG) baked foundation, and have not bought another foundation since. Not sure it’s my age (66), but the famous NARS foundation just sat on top of my skin. When I first used the LG’s baked foundation, I thought it was terrible, but found a YT that applied it by buffing it in, and after that I never looked back. I can apply the LG baked foundation at 10 a.m. and it looks even better at 9 p.m.
I use and really like LG baked foundation, too. I find you need a light hand and to use the brush with synthetic bristles that comes with it. A natural bristle brush picks up too much pigment which then looks cakey.
I think the no primer/setting spray side still looks good for all day in the humid South. I think I'd try it, but I'd put a little concealer on my acne scars before topping with the powder foundation. I'd use primer & setting spray too.
Zabrena , i am in desperate need of eyelashes. Could you do a whole show on how to apply, i Have been watching lashify but concerned about placing eyelashes under my eye. Yours are beautiful
I am going to skip this because I have more mature skin and I’m not even fond of the L’Oreal age perfect powder foundation, so I doubt I will like this. I do appreciate the review, thank you🥰
My 1st time and 2 videos of yours! I typically watch no tutorials on makeup well that just changed, I just subscribed and a tually feel excited to try Make up again! Thank you! I actually feel hope !!!
With a bit of blotting paper, what shine?!😄 Both side really held up beautifully on you. I have oily skin & want to try this so knowing the best results for me will take primer & spray is great knowledge to have up front. Thanks again!
@@Zabrena there is absolutely no better sound!! My baby just turned 17 and it still warms my heart when she has a hearty laugh. I still occasionally look in on her when she's sleeping and smile. Odd to some as I know she's a young lady, but I know what a blessing it is being her 'Ma' and seeing her sleep peacefully or her smile or have a hearty laugh brings me joy and gratitude.
@@DSpurlin215 My youngest just turned 17 too, oldest is about to turn 20. Can't believe it! I still do the same with mine, and get flashbacks of when they were little 🥲. Time sure does fly...
I can't wait to try this! What are the other powder foundations that last so long and look great besides the L'Oreal?? I must have missed those videos...🤔
I saw @JohnnyRoss talking about this last month and I’ve been wanting to try it ever since! He mentioned that it was waterproof but I appreciate you showing us here 🖤 I have freckles that I adore and pretty decent skin so I don’t wear foundation and only use concealer sparingly, but I’m getting older (35) and could use a little evening out. Definitely putting this on my list! Big hugs, Zabs! 🖤
BELIEVE BEAUTY, YOU NEED TO TRY A NEW BRONZER!! That Florence by Mills Bronzer looks JUST like a bronzer I recently got from Believe Beauty called Sunstruck Marbelized Bronzer in Golden Sienna…I LOVE it!
It's not as finicky. I feel like with the Camo powder, you have to apply it a certain way, certain technique, etc. It takes a lot more effort to get it to apply beautifully whereas this one was SO easy.
Oh wow, that is an awesome foundation, and its nice that its still light weight, i'll have to try it out. You look gorgeous, with or without makeup. Thank you for showing us this. ❤💜❤😊
Great video! I have dry, more mature skin. I want to try this powder foundation with my RT miracle powder sponge, my Essence fix and last makeup gripping jelly primer, and the essence fix and last 18 hour setting spray. Just to see if I can use it without it looking cakey.
Wow you can really see the difference the primer & setting spray made at 9 hrs … huge difference but with products most people will use anyway: would be interesting to see it with a primer & setting spray from the same brand ..
Hi from Germany (home of Essence) ! I m curious to hear how you like it since it received bad reviews here in Europe. Personally, I love the loreal one, but I was always curious about the essence one
I absolutely LOVED the powder foundation. My only concern is that I have dry skin, but I suppose that with a good primer and setting spray it should be okay. What are your thoughts? Your skin looked so pretty, like it was filtered, when you came back after 9 hours. I would say that foundation is worth looking into. I like all the Essence products I've ever tried. As far as Believe goes, I have a full face of their products, and really enjoy them. The foundation alone, at $5.99, is worth the trip to purchase it. Looking forward to seeing your "full face" video on Believe products! Your channel rocks, by the way. You are such a beautiful, graceful and kind woman. I truly look forward to watching your videos. God bless.
Oooh, I need to look into it this product....I swear by the mineral power powder foundation (only available at Walmart) but I teach for it more than liquid foundation honestly ...it's my absolute favorite! Thank u so much for sharing this....

@@fa3ryg1rl1 I use the sponge it comes with, and just press the powder onto my skin.

Can you do a comparison video with the elf camo powder? It seems like they perform similarly, but I'd like to know which one performs better.
I'll try. I'm 62 and just recently started using Laura Geller powder foundation. A bit pricey. Also interested in trying something new. Thank you!!!
Your background and maybe just you too - makes me feel like you're in a winter wonderland. And you also give off this Disney princess vibe too ♡
Those lashes!!! Wow and the powder looks great!
Thanks so much for this! I just added it to my Ulta cart. Been searching for a good drugstore powder foundation to wear over tinted sunscreen & the Loreal one is hard to get a match & too expensive to buy multiples. Can't wait to try this. I also just bought the ELF duo brush for that exact purpose. 🙂
I would love to see a cost total for all of the products used during a session, especially these side-by-side comparisons.
Love that idea!!
So so happy to see you my beautiful sister/friend!!!!
Hope all is well with you and the family. I’m glad you and the family made it through the hurricane. 😍😍

I can't use a powder foundation, but I'm dry. The shade you have looks absolutely perfect on you! Even after 9 hours?!
Agree..my skin is so dry also wrinkles from hell.snyway I tried the elf powdered foundation and it was aweful so cakey and strange ..I'm sticking to old school because I'm old school over 60.,😁
Oh, I will try this, I am excited!
Powder foundation goes on great with those little sponges if you wet them. I buy the cheap ones to use with powder foundation all the time.
Good idea. I use a velour puff with a press and roll motion.
I love the look of this powder it's not cakey and looks skin like despite being a powder. I'd definitely give it a shot. God Bless you hunny. Hope you're having a blessed day. Love ya. 💛
I will try, I just hope that it doesn't clog my pores.
What is the bronzer you used? Do you think this essence powder would work on dry skin?
Defs gonna try this foundation, but I gotta say I love the blessing you gave at the end. I'm gonna start doing that more often. God bless!
That powder looks great for that price...so quick and easy. Even with primer and setting spray...what's not to like? Love the lips also. 😍

@@DSpurlin215 My youngest just turned 17 too, oldest is about to turn 20. Can't believe it! I still do the same with mine, and get flashbacks of when they were little 🥲. Time sure does fly...
I can't wait to try this! What are the other powder foundations that last so long and look great besides the L'Oreal?? I must have missed those videos...🤔
What eyeshadows is she wearing in this video? Stunning.
I saw @JohnnyRoss talking about this last month and I’ve been wanting to try it ever since! He mentioned that it was waterproof but I appreciate you showing us here 🖤
I have freckles that I adore and pretty decent skin so I don’t wear foundation and only use concealer sparingly, but I’m getting older (35) and could use a little evening out. Definitely putting this on my list! Big hugs, Zabs! 🖤
I am going to try this foundation. Thank you for sharing this information with us 💖
I can't wait to try this powder. I'm into very quick, no makeup/makeup looks lately!!
Can’t wait to try this one! I love the hidden gems series; am looking forward to the next one.
Taylor Wynn loves this foundation. I've got to try it!
Going to try! Thanks! I always prefer powder foundations
BELIEVE BEAUTY, YOU NEED TO TRY A NEW BRONZER!! That Florence by Mills Bronzer looks JUST like a bronzer I recently got from Believe Beauty called Sunstruck Marbelized Bronzer in Golden Sienna…I LOVE it!
How would you say this compares with the Elf Camo Powder Foundation?
It's not as finicky. I feel like with the Camo powder, you have to apply it a certain way, certain technique, etc. It takes a lot more effort to get it to apply beautifully whereas this one was SO easy.
@@Zabrena Awesome! At half the price too, I'll certainly give it a try!
Oh wow, that is an awesome foundation, and its nice that its still light weight, i'll have to try it out. You look gorgeous, with or without makeup. Thank you for showing us this. ❤💜❤😊
I wonder if this is comparable to one I tried made from Mexico. It was the best I tried. It went on smooth and blurred my skin to perfection
Hi Zabrina...will you do an Essence vs ELF camo powder face off please!?!?
I like this idea! YES!
Thanks 😊👍🏻 I just wonder,how it will work on dry skin? Have a Blessed Week😊
Texas Lady🤗
Thank you Z!!! ❤️❤️
I'd buy a few shades darker and use it as a bronzer. Looks super promising.
Where can I find this product Please 🙏Does ulta have this brand 🥰
Yes! Thank you, Zabrena.
Great video! I have dry, more mature skin. I want to try this powder foundation with my RT miracle powder sponge, my Essence fix and last makeup gripping jelly primer, and the essence fix and last 18 hour setting spray. Just to see if I can use it without it looking cakey.
NYX Angel Veil will always be an underrated gem. It compares to Hourglass mineral veil...
Wow you can really see the difference the primer & setting spray made at 9 hrs … huge difference but with products most people will use anyway: would be interesting to see it with a primer & setting spray from the same brand ..
Great and very detailed review.
Hi from Germany (home of Essence) ! I m curious to hear how you like it since it received bad reviews here in Europe. Personally, I love the loreal one, but I was always curious about the essence one
I absolutely LOVED the powder foundation. My only concern is that I have dry skin, but I suppose that with a good primer and setting spray it should be okay. What are your thoughts? Your skin looked so pretty, like it was filtered, when you came back after 9 hours. I would say that foundation is worth looking into. I like all the Essence products I've ever tried. As far as Believe goes, I have a full face of their products, and really enjoy them. The foundation alone, at $5.99, is worth the trip to purchase it. Looking forward to seeing your "full face" video on Believe products! Your channel rocks, by the way. You are such a beautiful, graceful and kind woman. I truly look forward to watching your videos. God bless.
I've been looking for a Powder Foundation like this. Definitely will try it.
Dang, that foundation looks beautiful!
Yes! The Believe Beauty volumizing mascara is my favorite! (not the waterproof)
Oooh, I need to look into it this product....I swear by the mineral power powder foundation (only available at Walmart) but I teach for it more than liquid foundation honestly ...it's my absolute favorite! Thank u so much for sharing this....
Defiantly going to try this.. I am 78 and always looking for a no makeup look makeup . In am a big fan.
