The new Laura Mercier Real Flawless Foundation has surprisingly become one of my top 5 favorites. I live in Kansas & the humidity in the summer is just insane & the Laura Mercier one holds up like magic. Even with sweat dripping off my face working in the yard my makeup looked flawless 8 hours later. I was blown away. The blurring aspect is fabulous & totally makes a difference. Gives a beautiful airbrushed look with minimal effort. It’s worth every penny & considering I’ve not liked any of her other foundations that says a lot.

Love your foundation reviews. I appreciate your thoroughness. Thank you for keeping us company !

[@StephanieMarie]

Glad you like them! Thanks Lena!

[@donnadonnellan3622]

Thank you so much for referring us back to your tutorial about how to apply the Estee Lauder double wear foundation. Although I’ve been a subscriber earlier, then you posted that video. I wasn’t using that foundation at that time. I have it in my collection now and rarely used it, because it only worked for me sometimes. I just tried it again and it’s beautiful. It definitely helps us a lot to refer even us longtime subscribers back to these earlier videos

Can you please review the new too faced skin tint?

[@tracyjohnson5023]

I love the mally stressless foundation and I have oily skin and wrinkles at 57. I also love the mally face defender product. It's kind of a clear gel and works better than setting powder for me.

[@lesliehatch-herman9325]

Yes!! I just posted about that too-it’s a really great product!

[@StephanieMarie]

That product is so cool!

[@sueanderson9860]

The Saie foundation is amazing for sheering out heavier foundations or adding some glow to matte foundations. I have normal to somewhat dry skin and love it!

I love the makeup forever powder but I live in Arkansas so I get a little oily/sweaty in the tzone so I set it like I would w a liquid foundation but w wayyyy less powder. I just brush a tiny bit of my Huda on my tzone n use a setting spray and it’s perfect for me! I also use the glow recipe pore minimizing toner in my tzone when I use it!

Thank sooo much for the new Laura Mercier Flawless perfecting foundation. I’ve been tempted, but after last weeks video you said you would be doing a foundation roundup this week, so😊I thought 💭 “she will review this I’m sure”-so I will wait lol! It looks promising, I may just have to order this one very soon. Again, unbelievable dedication to your job, and we as your viewers appreciate the absolute thoroughness of your reviews 😉💄💋👏🏻❤️

Thanks Lisa!

[@robinwaibel6852]

Love the KVD foundation! I also cannot get a good color match. The color I ordered is too light (medium 054), but when I went into Sephora to exchange, the next shade up was too yellow/dark. Like you, I have taken to adding the D Bronzi drops. I wouldn't work so hard if the finish weren't so lovely.

[@LearningLaughingWithKell-dj4pv]

I just watched your video after I had purchased the Laura Mercier Real Flawless Foundation. My questions after my first use are: 1) My face felt sticky shortly after applying. When I attempted to apply my blush, it seemed to go on very strong (like it was sticking heavily to my skin). Should I allow this foundation to dry thoroughly before applying blush? 2) I was applying with a sponge. Do you recommend using a brush? Thank you for your video review. I appreciate it. 😉💄 I also wanted to mention on a separate note that this foundation shows a 90 rating out of 100 on my Yuka app for containing the safest ingredients. That is the most important to me.

[@amberwood1553]

I love the Laura mercier foundation. I bought it a month ago. It is dewy but dries down and is transfer resistant. Weird right? Welp I'm 45 and it doesn't make my crinkles look terrible. Also I kins like the new lancome, but I really like it when I mix the two...

[@alannaelayne4245]

As a fellow humidity expert…the Saie was a big miss for me! All the prep (or no prep) didn’t keep this on my skin for more than a few hours. Once it started to break apart…there was no saving it.

[@theemmadog]

I live in Fla. Crazy humidity too. What foundation do you like?? I have so many that I love but they all break down when I walk out the door.

[@YT-bv7ke]

@@theemmadog I haven’t found anything better for humidity and gross sticky summers than the OG Estée Lauder Double Wear. I keep looking, but I haven’t found anything as comfortable to wear and that lasts all day long like it. I do use a hyaluronic acid + niacinamide serum, a glowy sunscreen like Isntree Hyaluronic Acid Watery Sun Gel and a dewy setting spray to make it less dry and matte looking since I have normal to dry skin.

[@jennifermajor5013]

My Lancôme Teint Idole and Haus Labs both last through a Houston day and Disney World. I do use a matte primer (Milk hydro grip), powder (Huda easy bake with a puff), and the Milani (OG)setting spray-then it’s bulletproof.

[@kellyross4801]

I never tried the KVD Good Apple, tho I did try the Lock It. I remember that it didn't blur my texture very well. I have oily skin - nothing dry, and live in a similar climate as you. I like the idea of a serum with* coverage that might not melt. 🤞 Also still think a matte primer, matte foundation, and Wayne Goss' technique of primer - powder - foundation layering is hard to beat.

[@t.brooks5082]

I love the serum foundation way better than the Lock It. I think it looks more natural but still with great coverage, and it lasts forever without settling into lines,

[@monicadrew889]

I think I’m done with foundations, I’m 57 with combo to oily skin. I have a drawer full of foundation and they all look bad from sliding off braking up to to much and looking so bad and I’m tired of it getting all over my coats. So frustrated!!

[@StephanieMarie]

Have you tried primer under them? I’m sorry you’re so frustrated! ❤️

[@lynette2978]

On occasion I'll use Laura Gellar Balance&Brighten powder foundation... lasts all day and feather light. For everyday, I now only use Australian Gold tinted mineral sunscreen... evens out skin tone, gives sun protection, lasts all day. For reference I'm 59 with combo skin.

[@shannoncarey9777]

Try Estée Lauder Double wear. It is probably the best foundation for your skin type.

[@sylviaamoedo733]

I’m super oily and some that work amazing for me - Gucci, Dior forever new, doublewear. And a mattifying primer always - milk do a great one!

[@slschmidt76]

One thing I’ve learned over the years is that more often than not it’s not that the foundation that doesn’t work. It’s user error. Make sure you prep your skin before applying & use a good primer. If your not taking the time to properly prep it won’t matter what product you use. Primer wise I use Bobbi Brown Face Base because it doubles as a moisturizer & primer. It also hydrates dry skin like a dream. It also makes almost any foundation look flawless on my dry mature skin.

[@cristianasaras6898]

Obsessed with Saie it’s like someone took my skin and poured it in a bottle it’s like water but radiant I am Dry - normal Tretenoin skin so probably why I love it so much

You definitely need to try the KVD Good Apple Balm foundation too! I was amazed by how wonderful it was in mature skin. Amazing perfecting coverage. I , too, order 027 in the balm and it was too light but with bronzer made it work. Found that 033 was my colour. Was so shocked that I loved it as I usually don’t like viral products as they are for teenagers. But this is now my HOLY GRAIL

It’s one of only 2 foundations that I can wear without a setting powder if I choose to. It doesn’t get splotchy on me and doesn’t settle in fine lines. I live in the Southeast where it is hot & humid, and even after hours, it still looks amazing! I love it.

Thanks for the reviews!! I didn’t realize that Mally had a foundation-so cool! I’ve used quite a few of her products from back when I regularly haunted QVC online 😂😂, and I loved most of them. My favorite is the Mally Poreless Face Defender…if you haven’t tried it, I’d bet you would love it! It helps cut shine in place of using powder, but I’m not sure how to accurately describe that product. It’s a clear firm gel(?) in a compact. I know that QVC still carries her products. Anyway, I appreciate all you do, and I hope you and your family have a beautiful Easter!

Today I'm trying Lancome's new Teint Idole formulation. Never tried the old one to compare, but this is the first time I've worn foundation since my wedding (and I think even then it was Jane Iredale's Amazing Base Powder) 12 years ago. Idk how I feel about it - it's more matte than I like (or am used to), but I figure as the day goes on, my skin will break it down and give it a more natural finish - just checked in at 7 hours and somehow I'm still matte, but my rosacea and texture is showing through. Idk. All this to say, I'm really, really curious about and wanting to try Saie's foundation. I forgot to mention one other thing about LTI, it is super thin formulation and you cannot feel it at all. That's saying a lot about it's comfort from someone who only wears tinted SPF! Super, super comfortable and my skin feels fresher at the end of the day than when wearing one of my SPF's. So there's that. AND! They say it doesn't have SPF in this new formulation, but it actually has 6.7% octinoxate. Just sayin'. Idk what I'm saying, but just.

I was in Sephora for a new foundation. I made a decision not to order online for foundations anymore unless it’s a re-purchase. I am terrible at returns regardless, and Sephora is a half an hour from me and this is why nothing gets returned . I went in with a KVD new good apple. I do have the original cream, good apple the shade was matched for me to be L12 it looked great in the store, however doing a full face it’s a little light. While in Sephora, the sales girl did not think it was a good choice for my 45yr normal to dry skin. I then asked her for a suggestion. She suggested NARS light reflecting OR Armani luminous silk (btw she also poo pooed Haus Labs😔). The Armani 5.1 was the best match. NARS Vienna was an ok match from the bunch. slightly warm on my light to medium neutral skin. I couldn’t make a decision, so I bought the Armani which I do enjoy and a month later I bought the NARS online, knowing my shade.. The reviews that I have seen here for the new KVD Good apple have all been good.. even from my KZbinrs with grown-up girl skin.. I’m gonna go get it down the road a little bit and give it a try. If it doesn’t work, will it get returned? 🤷‍♀️I’m really going to try and be better at it, it’s a terrible waste of money. I wish I knew somebody with my shade match that I could offer my foundation/concealer graveyard products.

Seems makeup companies and hair care companies really underestimate how much weather affects product performance. I live in an area of the country where my skin is dry as a bone in late fall, winter, and early spring. In summer and early fall, the heat and humidity are merciless, similar to your environment most of the year. So, with summer coming, the Saie will be a pass for me but I am going to try to the Make up Forever, mostly because I just want something I can dust on quickly that won't be too coverag-ey. I have to say though, MakeUp Forever's HD foundation is winning for me right now. And small tip - I have medium skin that is neutral but leans slightly pink. I ALWAYS order the cool options in foundation - the "neutral" options are always super yellow!

[@LoveMyGSDs]

Make up forever is now on my no-by list for complexion products. They used to be one of the best brands out there for cool undertones, but when I bought the reformulated HD foundation their light medium with cool undertones was completely peach. It’s a shame. It’s like they hired someone who’s colorblind to develop their new shade range.

[@StephanieMarie]

I do love their HD Skin and wear 2n22 in that! I totally understand the frustration though! :)

[@LoveMyGSDs]

@@StephanieMarie I love the formula of that one as well. I have their old water blend foundation in the shade that is actually very pink. I use it as a mix-in whenever I find a foundation formula that I love, but the undertone isn’t quite right. So, I did keep the HD and mix in the water blend, but it is still unbelievable, that I have to use their old shades to make their new shades work.

[@jessabeauty917]

I have also gotten to my limit with the MUFE colors. So peach! I’m yellow. Not orange. They’re not the same. I was also the lightest shade and that’s not usual. Foundation shades need to look like skin colors when on.

Hi Judy. I provided timestamps for people who don’t care about skin type or the methods I use to test.

[@Plum_bird]

I don’t think the Mally foundation is underrated it just doesn’t have enough shades.

[@rosemartin4398]

Don’t even get me started on the Lancôme reformulation . I knew it was coming because the UK you tubers knew way before we did . I was dreading it because the act of finding a new makeup that can be worn similarly to someone’s holy grail makeup daily can be sick and tiring and mentally exhausting and frustrating. So anyway the new Lancôme teinte is absolutely trash and I’m so mad and sick over it . I’ve used the normal one for 8 years and now I’m getting samples of all kinds of makeup all the time in hopes of finding something close to it 😞

[@StephanieMarie]

Yes! Gemma told me about it weeks ago and it made my stomach drop! Yikes! I'm not looking forward to this one or the Dior. Ugh.

[@lilajane3]

Lancome has been go to for years also. Thanks for the heads up. I might try the Laura Mercier.

[@rosemartin4398]

@@StephanieMarie yes super sad . It makes me so mad that companies are changing perfectly good products. I mean it was loved worldwide by so many. 😓

[@jessabeauty917]

@@lilajane3 it worked very well for me, but I stay away from sunscreen and hyaluronic acid and both are in this. Sunscreen in foundation is so outdated. I wouldn’t be able to wear this often with the ingredient list.

[@marielle7505]

Maybe it's because of the poor shadematch, but it looked like a workout to blend that Gucci foundation! Your facial expression seemed to say: Gucci, are you kidding me right now? For me, it's a hard pass based on that clip alone.

[@StephanieMarie]

It WAS kind of a workout! LOL!

[@juststartingover2735]

Can you please add a 60+ model for these foundations becuz 40 is far different from 60+ very mature skin 😁

[@StephanieMarie]

Hi. I’m almost 50 and this is my experience with these foundations. It’s not easy to do these on ourselves, much less recruit volunteers of specific ages to come on camera for each foundation. I’m sure there is a KZbinr who is 60 and does foundation reviews if you’d prefer foundation reviews from that age 😊

[@juststartingover2735]

@@StephanieMarie i understand , thank you. Your video was still more helpful to me than most 😁

[@Heyheyrayeraye]

That's MUFE, not Makeup Revolution. 😂At first I was like dang! Makeup Revolution copied the packaging down to a T!

[@StephanieMarie]

Yes I know. Slip of the tongue. Can’t go back and change it.

[@andyrina3688]

This would be so much more helpful if you compared or ranked these in relation to existing foundations.

[@StephanieMarie]

I do top foundations videos. I do these roundups of newly tested foundations so frequently it would make them insanely long since there is an infinite number of existing foundations to compare them to. Inevitably, I wouldn’t compare them to something someone wanted and it would be a never ending rabbit hole if I did that in every one

[@judycrowder2609]

@andyrina3688 Stephanie has a foundation roundup playlist that is extremely helpful when I am I researching a new to me foundation purchase. She does reference in some round-ups videos what a new foundation reminds her of previous products. Plus, I get reminded of older products that I may have forgotten about etc. Great and useful playlist to reference! 😊

[@julielongmakeup]

Why did you title the video for mature skin if you’re talking about other skin types?

[@StephanieMarie]

Hi! What other skin types are you referring to? Mature women can have various skin types - ranging from oily to dry. I’m not sure what you mean.

[@julielongmakeup]

@@StephanieMarieI think I messed up and misunderstood. I’m very sorry!

[@QueenMahaon]

You said "Make up revolution" instead of "Makeup for ever"..

[@StephanieMarie]

Yes I know. Accidents happen 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@HulaHoopBunny]

Did you get lip filler? Im binge watching your videos and your lips are much much bigger here.

[@StephanieMarie]

Haha! It's overlining. My lips are so much thinner than they were years ago. I've toyed with it but haven't taken the plunge! If you check out videos after, they're back to their same thinner selves! LOL
