*There are several different undertones going on at one time! Your foundation looks cool toned, but under your eyes is extremely golden, and your neck looks neutral/olive toned. Isaa lot. GORGOUS eye makeup though, love it! Thank you for sharing.*

[@bajanbreezy]

I can't stand when brands don't have enough shade ranges for darker skin like they do for lighter complexions.

[@LadiSway]

Finally made it to a new upload and early. I have enjoyed binging your channel, as a new subscriber. Thank you for all of your content, Mena.

[@kenyattabrumfield1819]

You look gorgeous as per usual! I was SUPER surprised when you didn't go with the darker color and lighten with your concealer. I'm so accustomed to you picking the deeper shades. It wore beautifully, but I'm TOTALLY loving the Haus Labs for cooler/ in between weather. It's hydrating and I found that I don't get too dewy during the wear. I love that! My absolute fav right now is the Charlotte Tilbury balm. I can't remember if you reviewed/wore it, but I think you'd love it!

[@maxii819]

This look came out beautiful 😍 and I agree with you, it's not the match you'd go for. I purchased the foundation but I have yet to try it. Will do soon

[@monique2224]

This looks awesome 🥰

[@tamirrad6572]

Love how you inform us and make-up is ALWAYS on POINT

[@MENA_ADUBEA]

Thank youuu

[@jayj8176]

I went with the color 29C for the same reason. I knew the neutral shade would not be dark enough for me and the warm shades would be too red. I like 29C, but I really hope they expand the shades by winter of this year because I truly love the foundation.

[@NanaBeauty1900]

Hey Mena!!! Your makeup looks flawless 💛💛I always learn so much from you!! You are a excellent teacher😁 you always break it down where anyone can follow your steps.

[@MENA_ADUBEA]

Thank you sooo much!

[@cieraby]

You look amazing 😍. I pray all is well with you and your family. Also, I pray you are healing up perfectly! Love seeing the tutorials🤗 but I would love a tutorial on the smokey black under eye😍

[@MENA_ADUBEA]

Thank you so much! Yes I feel great!

[@Blackess]

My absolute favourite foundation

[@norapeterson6331]

Girl, look how beautiful u are before any makeup! ❤

[@MENA_ADUBEA]

Thxxxx

[@audreydee7487]

Looks really good

[@brendakerubo7398]

Anytime i see a new foundation..i have to come here for review and shade ..its that good❤❤❤

[@MENA_ADUBEA]

Oh do you! Aaw, ok lmk if there are some others you want me to review!

[@iamspeaking6686]

You’re so detailed and specific about everything you do here. Of course the color foundation you chose out of the four was gorgeous on you. And I loved it more after the wear test all the more. Love how you explained how you had to go lighter with all the other products due to the shade choice. This foundation only took one wear test for myself, I’m somewhat oily in the t-zone. Honestly, it was just a little too shiny overall. And I did not like the look I had after wearing it for nearly 5 hours.

[@MENA_ADUBEA]

Yes, I completely understand!

[@modestpetite]

Thanks for the review! I do agree that there is an opportunity for some additional shades in between the ones you swatches for us. The end result looked great though!

[@MENA_ADUBEA]

Thank you!

[@92punkbabe]

This beat though!!! I love it. Stay blessed. 😱🩷👌🏾

[@MENA_ADUBEA]

Thank youuuu!

[@92punkbabe]

@@MENA_ADUBEA Of course!

[@_000g]

I think your makeup still looks stunning after 13 hrs wear. Im shade 20N have not yet purchased because its sold out near me. Recommendations: what are your thoughts on KVD good apple liquid foundation are you interested in trying?

[@Misskwu]

Since I’ve moved to Houston from Atlanta my skin has been acting weird!!! My makeup doesn’t look flawless anymore 😳trying to locate a reliable foundation. Thank you for this video

[@msla728]

Looks GORG! I knew that didn’t look like her normal shade.

[@MENA_ADUBEA]

Thank you!

[@eboneewinston6078]

Hey Mena! Thanks for testing this for us. You’re right, they missed the opportunity to incorporate more darker shades w/neutral undertone. I normally match with your selection but now that I’ve seen it, don’t think I will be trying. But of course, the lips were 🔥!

[@MENA_ADUBEA]

Thank you!

[@beautybylataya]

I tried this foundation for the first time today, I’m the shade 20N and I love how my skin has been looking all day. It will definitely be my winter foundation though because I do have oily skin, but it held up great in this 16 degree weather.

[@MENA_ADUBEA]

Yesss, I completely understand!

[@vantem9750]

No babes!! This foundation is SITTING very nicely on your skin! My natural oils peep thru most of the time that has my skin looking just like yours 😍😍😍 if I needed to say anything abt the look, a more neutral concealer would serveeeeee.

[@MENA_ADUBEA]

Thxxx!

[@StylingwithV]

I was waiting on you to test it!!’ Right now my shade is Iguacu in NARS!!! Thanks for the honesty

[@MENA_ADUBEA]

Of course!

[@aryah66]

I use 24N in this foundation, but I have normal to dry skin. I think the Haus Labs foundation is a great alternative for those with more oily skin. You always pull it together though!

[@MENA_ADUBEA]

Thank you!

[@kenyattabrumfield1819]

Love the Haus Labs!

[@jessicafianko]

Happy Tuesday Mena, How are you doing and how are you feeling? Loved today's video, the foundation looked absolutely amazing on you 😍😍😍 Sending lots of love 🤎🤎🤎🤎

[@MENA_ADUBEA]

I feel amazing, thank you for asking!

[@winedownwithleetheemua]

I completely feel the same way Mena! I swatched at the store and I did not find my shade either! So I did not purchase anything. Thanks for dong this wear test and review. ❤

[@MENA_ADUBEA]

Of course!

[@andreamagwood7050]

I got a sample of 25W which was perfect for me. Definitely hydrating. I have combo oily skin. I’ll definitely save for winter months or cold places as our winter is short where I live, if I buy it.

[@MENA_ADUBEA]

Yass definitely agree!

[@gabrielafrancois7175]

I appreciate trying this foundation out and letting us know how you really felt about it. Florida is being weird and getting to 40 degrees some days so my skin has been a desert! This foundation may be good for me (:

[@MENA_ADUBEA]

Yes, it may be worth a try for you!

[@angell596]

Happy Tuesday Mena! I think this color looks great on you. I’ve seen this foundation online but never looked further into it. Thank you for always sharing.

[@MENA_ADUBEA]

Of course 💕

[@wilbertejean7845]

Hi I bought it. I like it better than the Haus labs

[@DecemberJones4]

You always make your make up look so beautiful ❤ I do understand what you mean by the color though! But you cute cute ❤

[@MENA_ADUBEA]

Thank you!

[@BeautifullySyndie]

I need to try it!

[@BeautifullySyndie]

Ohh, after watching the video…it might be too glowy for my oily/combo skin.

[@hyacinthcarter6359]

I’m here let me check this out

[@alib180]

I haven’t been around to getting it but I wanna see if I can find my shade!!! Have you tried the new Juvias foundation? I’d love to see you review it ❤❤

[@MENA_ADUBEA]

Not yet! I want to try it! The Hydrating one?

[@alib180]

@@MENA_ADUBEA yes

[@marble.lionne]

❤️

[@hyacinthcarter6359]

So since I can’t go dark and bring it around like you, it would be best to get a shade that matches me correctly right?

[@MENA_ADUBEA]

Yes!

[@mulaanlin4624]

Lovely makeup but I really think you should of gone with 27W 💓💓

[@makeupqueenroo]

I think I found my shade but he could definitely use more shades and undertones. I like the shade that you ended picking but I understand what you mean and your style of doing foundation, if the one you picked where a little bit darker it would have worked for you. But overall I like the skin like glowy look it gives

[@MENA_ADUBEA]

Thank you so much!

[@antoniawilliams2627]

It actually looks really nice. I’m oily skin so I can’t wear it.

[@olaitanlawal8500]

What is the name of the lip liner pls

[@MENA_ADUBEA]

It’s linked in the devs description

[@deonrhodes8588]

It’s a beautiful foundation, but my oily skin could never 😩

[@MENA_ADUBEA]

Listennnnn I understand!

[@user-ty3yh8sb5y]

Does it oxidize?

[@MENA_ADUBEA]

Not that I’ve noticed

[@knorah]

No I want be hopping on the Mario train because I feel it was to dewy

[@lindasanders9978]

I have oily skin

[@ashleymerriweather6329]

Happy Tuesday , how are you?

[@MENA_ADUBEA]

Hey! I’m good and yourself?

[@JamilaDauraLifestyle]

All reviews I have watched made me realise this won't work for me for 2 reason, too dewy (I am oilllyyyyy skin), 2. I won't find my shade as well. Great product I guess, but he needs to expand the shades.

[@MENA_ADUBEA]

I completely understand!

[@nadsbeauty_]

I love this foundation but I live in a cold weather environment.

[@MENA_ADUBEA]

It may work for you there!

[@tiyyas3022]

We know you always gone make something do what it do. I loved the look on you. But I can’t stand how greasy my face gets even with powders, primers and setting sprays so I’m gonna leave this one alone

[@MENA_ADUBEA]

I completely understand!

[@sams2946]

I don't like how dewy this formula is. Normally, in FL 70ish weather I could wear a more hydrating foundation (Uoma or Sephora). But Mario's isn't going to look good on my combo skin. Besides the fact that I don't see a shade that fits my dark chocolate skin. It's a pass for me. I have 8 or 9 foundations that fit my skintone perfectly. I don't need one that doesn't.

[@MENA_ADUBEA]

I hear you! These days, we don’t have time for a foundation that kind of works. It just needs to work, wholeheartedly!
