Hi Velanique, newbie in town, I love to find smaller channels that really give honest reviews, not because they are sponsored or have to sell it all, which is what we normal people want to see, like good old School KZbin. Very good review and filming in natural light which gives us a more accurate idea of how everything turned out, I only missed seeing that you wrote down or showed on camera every product you used, such as which powder did you use? and Concealer! hils from Denmark!

Mature woman here - like 70-plus. I ditched using moisturizer and started using Charlotte Tilbury’s Zmagic Hydrator Mist and Smashbox Minimize Pores primer. This combo gave an airbrushed ginish that lasted all day. Haven’t tried this with her primer since I only got a small sample. I love the look now. Before I got way too much shine and my pores looked like craters 😊. Thanks fir the review!

I find this video confusing. At first I thought there was to be a review of Revlon Illuminance Serum Tint, but then the presenter produced what she called "a foundation". Is this the same as the tint? And she added a couple more different products which weren't introduced in a way I could follow properly. This further confused me! Sorry, but to get to know the tint, I'll have to visit it at a department store!
@Velanique.m3 ай бұрын
Hello there, thanx for watching! Apologies for the the confusion. I inadvertently called the serum tint a foundation. I performed a 9 hour wear test with the tint (half my face was primed, to see if the primer makes any difference). For me and my combination skin type the tint did not hold up very well, those are the results at the end of the video. In this video I also tested the flex wear concealer (primed one under eye with aquaphor) the concealer did not hold up at all during the day on both sides.

Good to have you back. Thanks for sharing , we do need to talk about menopause more. I also had all the symptoms you have had and I also didn’t want to go onto HRT but I felt so down that I relented and started HRT. It was the best decision I made and I feel so much better now. I think it’s also depressing to see our skin ageing and our bodies changing when in our mind we still feel young. Women are strong and we will get through it.❤

I have mature skin (72 yo), and I rarely use setting powder over concealer. If I do, it’s only a faint amount on a big, fluffy brush. (I used it recently over Miracle Balm, which is sticky on my skin.) It seems to me that your rather heavy application of powder with a puff, over the concealer, is what made it crease. If you have oily skin probably some light powder is needed, but if not, good concealer alone lasts pretty much all day, at least for me. But I’m on the hunt for something that doesn’t crease on my old skin, plus lasts for at least several hours, and that doesn’t need powder!
