BEST & Worst of Kosas

[@alessialing7848]

i love that your “best and worst” actually talks about the best and worst qualities of each product rather than just simply labeling each product as “good” vs “bad” 😊❤️❤️

[@beckyshaknovich7554]

This is what makes Amanda such a fantastic beauty KZbind!

[@cenestpasdubonbon]

Amanda, you make the best close up application on the tube! You can truly see the texture, the color and the way a product applies. I love it! Please never stop! 🙌🏼❤️

[@laurasauer-shah9492]

I completely agree!

[@erinnswan7063]

She is the best. I wish every KZbin did this but I know it is a lot of work but Amanda has a great work ethic.

[@hazetaylor]

As someone with oily/combo skin, I just want to remind your guys that the Kosas powder has ZERO oil control quality and will NOT blot your face at all. Sometimes I even feel that my face looks MORE oily at the end of the day and I’m not that oily. So I personally feel like it’s more for the dry skin girls!

[@chickflickangel]

Nice to know! ☺️

[@AmandaZ]

Thank you for this!!

[@nisapl]

I actually have oily skin and wear euro sunscreens (shiny much...) and I LOVE Cloud Set. But! I do agree with you it has weak to almost none oil control. At the same time I feel it blends and melts my base makeup together and stays a while. It's also slightly blurring but not too perfected. I'm used to CT AFF and RBR Glorious Daylight and this is a little less blurring and perfecting. But the more I wear it the more I love it because I look nice but "effortless". To provide the littlest bit of oil control for a couple hours I really pack it on with dense kabuki, but it never looks cakey, flat or dry and dull. I prefer to look glowy and blot often than looking dry and dull (my asshat skin is also dehydrated. Fun). Plus, it's the first powder which formula I love and has the PERFECT undertone match for my yellow olive skin.

[@sheila355]

@@nisapl I have olive skin too. What shade do you use?

[@nisapl]

@@sheila355 Cushiony. It fixes my foundations that are not perfect matches in undertone.

For someone who didn't vote for this video on the poll, I still got here pretty early. I really love your content and want to support your channel.

[@shannarafryer3111]

Yeah same, I didn’t even know there was a poll

[@AmandaZ]

🥺🥺🥺

[@melissamendes8778]

This video literally answered every possible question I had or I want to know before buying products and I have been really interested in some kosas items recently. You nailed everything! And your close up shots are another level. Before I invest in anything, this is the place I come to in order to get honest takes and thorough reviews!

[@AmandaZ]

🥺❤️❤️ thank you so much

[@Robin-no8cu]

That concealer is the bomb! I’m 62 and it barely creases on ME! Love it.

[@ardinisf]

compare the powder to the charlotte tilbury airbrush powder and the brow gel w the glossier boy brow!

[@pc2450]

I think they truly nailed the spoolie on the brow products, and the overall packaging as well! Btw I would love to know your opinion on the new Skin Realist tinted balm from Nabla :) love your channel

[@ymahopkins]

I love the clear lip oil as like an everyday balm, I agree it’s very nourishing 💖

[@Vampireprice]

I’ve reached my 30s and I’m having to completely revamp my makeup collection to work with my ever changing skin texture. I’m throwing out all my old products. Your videos have helped so much with narrowing down which brands and products to prioritize. I’ve watched yours and Matilda on Video’s reviews nonstop. Thank you for your work. You’re a godsend.

[@salmabeautycorner6434]

Kosas cream blush and highlighter duo??? I love that it’s so glossy and thin formula

[@erinthevirgo]

A good remedy for hard pan is to apply a piece of tape on top of the spot, the tape just removes the very top layer and your powder is good as new!

[@gerlindelang]

cool, i must try!

[@ambgirl0000176]

You should try their cream blush and highlight i feel like you'd like it!!

[@unfairisle]

i love love how thin the skin tint is, it's basically untraceable on my skin texture, but I just wish it was easier to work with

[@bethanyh3767]

your close up shots are SO HELPFUL THANK YOU!

[@victoriamichelle2977]

I have the concealer and the powder coming in the mail today! I ordered the concealer off your recommendation and the powder off Jamie Paige's!

[@valprieto2669]

i have both and they’re the best !

[@faeriesmak]

My favorite Kosas product is actually the cream blush duo in 8th Muse. I especially love the highlighter!

[@beckyshaknovich7554]

That’s the only color I don’t have. Now I want it

[@shannarafryer3111]

Omg thank you for this video because kosas is the brand I wanted to buy from recently. Also I never saw that poll

[@norabolles713]

Same !!

[@NWlifetube]

Who else wants to buy the brow gel for the packaging alone?

[@makeupandbeautea]

I'd lovee to see Kosas do blushes in this new fun, cool packaging they've recently been coming out with. Super informative video as always, Amanda 😊

[@flowerandmakeuplover]

I do love the compact for the cream blush/highlighter, but it would be nice to see something lighter for their powder blushes!

[@makeupandbeautea]

@@flowerandmakeuplover a blush in this setting powder type formula would be so good!

[@erinnswan7063]

You made me buy the Kosas concealer! I was going to tell you that a lot of people are getting hard pan with the Kosas powder. Not that is a deal breaker. I also know that the Kosas mascara smudges terribly on a lot of people.

[@monicadrew889]

I just want to say thank you for always doing such detailed, honest reviews with close up shots in your videos . Much appreciated 💕

[@GillenMeg]

I’m quickly falling in love with Kosas! I only recently tried the tinted face oil and the concealer and I love them, plus the new tinted brow gel has been a major fave so far!! I can’t wait to try the powder when I’m in need of a new one 💕

[@meaganevoy]

OMG your eyes look so gorgeous!!! The color, the shape, the shadow color, all of it - beautiful !!!

[@constanzaed]

Amanda really don’t need a brow pencil, her brows are gorgeous! 😉

[@somewhatdiscrete]

if you like copper halo I think you'll really like globe! they're the most similar of all the shades and I think globe is even more of a good everyday shade than copper halo.

[@Sassyglbeauty]

I think you are one of the first KZbinrs that seems to have eyebrows closest to mine. Having such a thick, full set of eyebrows, I try to ignore my eyebrows because I don’t want to draw attention to it but don’t want to wax them or skim them down either.

[@maryhowell5313]

I really love these one brand reviews!

[@solskynn]

I took your word for it and bought the Kosas concealer because like you I have struggled all my life trying to find a concealer that successfully conceals my dark circles without making them look crazy dry, crepey and cakey...and I'm so glad I did, I'm blown away by this concealer! I had actually given up trying to conceal my under eyes at all because I felt the way other concealers made the area look was actually worse than just having dark circles To anyone who this issue resonates with, go out and buy this concealer! It is life-changing

[@forsythfamilyfootage]

You got me loving the Kosas concealer. I’m on my second tube. I too suffer from the hollowness, I call them my “mama Imelda” eyes. Like from Coco? 💀

[@niorblanc]

congrats on 50k subbies love

[@ravenlenz3610]

I bought the Kosas concealer based on your recommendation and OMG I’m just so pleased. It’s gorgeous !!! Thank you for the recommendation ❤️

[@luciaayaso2260]

I tend to lean more on the dry side as well although I use skincare for this and don’t find I have any issues with dry patches however certain products I really stay away from. That being said I have fallen in love with the HOURGLASS powder but am looking for something I can throw in my bag that can’t spill by accident. I’m dying to try this one. The MAC fix plus powder foundation is so lovely. Plays nice with my dry skin and provides coverage if that’s what your looking for. Great video.. can’t wait to try the concealer. My under eyes need something super moisturizing and this looks really promising.

[@Vampireprice]

I'm getting my first Kosas product in the mail today. I can't wait to further explore the brand. Timely videos are your forte Amanda!

[@CT1010101]

I never thought to use a brush with the 10 second eyeshadow. 😱 I just use my finger and get an all over wash that I fade out on the edges. I'll definitely have to try the brush.

[@taylorjohnson2206]

The kosas baseline chapstick is my holy grail chapstick! All the colors are great too and actually nourishing which isn’t always the case with tinted chapsticks

[@gerlindelang]

your eye shadow is perfect in this one

[@yolandaromero2540]

Love this video we don’t have kosas in mexico so I just have to buy it twice the price so this really helped me to pick the best, also I’m addicted to KZbin and I’ve been watching a lot of videos on the kosas powder and everybody says that the hit hard pan so I’m guessing it’s not your fault but that’s just the way the products ends Love all your videos I have oily skin but I love all your recommendations

[@francescarossi9080]

Lovely video as always and I'm now interested in the clear brow gel😍 What differences there are between this and the glossier boy brow? Which one do you prefer for brows as yours? Thank you!

[@TheSim1derful]

Thanks for this review! It's super helpful, as always. I'm really eyeing those 10 second eyeshadows, specifically the more bright fun shades.

[@nataliefbehler]

Ooh, the lip oil was one I didn't think about and I really like how it looks on you. Thanks for the overview!!

[@chrizzyp.721]

Happy Friday, Amanda and thanks for this awesome video! Will watch later after my work is done. 😍

[@madisontaylor4296]

I got the shade globe and looooooveeeee it! 10/10 would recommend ❤️

[@jaimeodell1866]

Great video! I love the concealer, the Globe eye shadow, lip oils and their lipstick is great too!

[@beccawolfrey9620]

I love the new brow products. My hair is black and I struggle to find a good black brow pencil. Package is so adorable on those👍

[@azureandersen9465]

The saie glow serum works incredible under the Kosas foundation!!! Try!!

[@heatherbocks]

I just got the concealer during the sale. Really happy they added the .5 shade for my pale pale self. I’ve only used it twice but it’s wonderful so far! It reminds me of a less dewy Too Faced born this way concealer (the original one) which was my child until it was discontinued.

[@emilydewenter6308]

I have been wanting to try the clear brow gel so badly thanks for reviewing it! Also want to try some of the face products but I hate that I can’t try in store anymore

[@cathymccarthy5360]

I love the Kosas concealer 🥰 I’m planning on buying the cloud powder next. 🤗

[@TheGarsowTwins]

100% agree the concealer is the best in their assortment - it is THE BEST.

[@angelaprentice8055]

Thanks for such an indepth review, love your videos Amanda! I'm looking to buy the Kosas brow team products and I love a feathery brow. My brow hairs are also quite thick and dark already like yours. I was wondering if I should go with the pencil + clear gel or just the tinted gel. What would you recommend?

[@chickflickangel]

I was so nervous that the Kosas Face Oil would ruin the whole look because I've heard such bad things about it, glad the overall look was still beautiful 😊💕

[@marieerikson]

I recently got the tinted face oil and I have actually really liked it. It looks natural and so far it hasn't caused problems with products I use but I can see that being a big problem.

[@lindaf2795]

Amanda Z and Kosas☺️🙏💕. Thank you for making my Friday✨!

[@lisagoldman287]

Can you please please do a video on sunscreens and tinted moisturizers that go together without pulling???

[@flowerandmakeuplover]

I love the Kosas face oil underneath a heavier coverage foundation (where I want it) as somebody who has oily/combo skin. It gives me a nice glow without making me break out or extra oily. I do set it, but it doesn't "grab" at the powder like some dewier formulas. I think it looks great on its own for photos, but now that we're wearing masks all the time, it is not long-wearing enough for me. I also LOVE their lipsticks. I've used them for years - I've actually finished two! I hate having to wear a lip balm that doesn't add color - for me, the lipsticks are moisturizing enough to use throughout the day on their own. I also enjoyed their cream blush/highlighter, but I didn't use it up before it went bad. I really enjoyed the packaging of the cream blush/highlighter. I really want to try their concealer when I finish the one I have right now!

[@arielts06]

The tinted oil looks so beautiful on your skin! Makes me want to try it even though you don’t love it. Is there another product with a similar effect of melting into the skin that you would recommend instead?

[@hannahsonnenburg7718]

I’ve only tried the concealer so far and I love it but I’m really glad that you talked about the tinted face oil because I thought about getting it. I’ll get the Mac face and body instead. :)

[@cvdck6561]

I love their lip products especially the lipsticks and glosses, for me, that's the best I've tried...But sadly their base products are *so* yellow! I have a cool/pale skin and nothing matches me. It's not really surprising for me because I'm used to not being able to find my shade (and not every brand is for everyone). But the fact they market, on their website, their lightest shades as cool and light baffles me because it's not 😂

[@flowerandmakeuplover]

I wouldn't say I'm cool-toned, yet shade 3 (which they describe as cool-toned) in the Face Oil is a great match for me.

[@finecurls2291]

I agree with you on the Kosas concealer .. the formula is just lovely 💕 I bought the shade 5 it was a bit too yellow I'm more of a neutral tone. Do you know which number in the Kosas concealer is a medium neutral?

[@s_alien]

The need to extend the shade range for the TFO too. As someone who need 0.5 in the concealer, I also need a lighter shade In the oil.

[@elleitra3004]

I’ve been soo looking forward to this...

[@gjpancake]

How is the Kosas Powder vs Mac Mineralize Skin Finish Powder? I feel like they look the same and I use the latter so Idk if I should still purchase the former

[@valprieto2669]

imo the kosas one is more hydrating and fluffy whereas the mac one is drier and has more of a matte finish (not too matte but when comparing it to the kosas one it is)

[@valprieto2669]

no one asked me haha but i would say they’re both pretty good, if you have dry skin i’d go w kosas and if your skin is oily the mac one. they’re very nice but in my experience (i have oily skin w a lot of dry patches) the kosas one lasted longer and looked way better. i think it just depends on your skin type bc they’re both v nice

[@DanielleNicoleMakeup]

Also you should try the new Shape Tape Glow powder if you can. I got the shade Starlit and love it!

[@ayimera]

I love the lip oils, especially Jaws. Their lipstick is also OK, Rosewater is a sheer pretty pink. But their concealer for me is still so yellow, even with the new "cool" colors (pink undertones, hooray). I'm very interested in trying their 10-second shadows.

[@katdikosavljevic3510]

You have to try maybelline full and soft it’s sooo good!!!

[@Tabata-vf6jb]

Amanda, if you didnt tried yet, could you do a tutorial of the maybelline age rewind concealer? I guess theyre nice for hollowed dark circles, they have skincare ingredients as well

[@gdimu23]

Hi Amanda! Which shade of the Kosas concealer do you think is closest to the Maybelline Fit Me concealer in shade 10? I really want to try the Kosas concealer but I don't want to mess up the shade, and shade 10 of the Maybelline is a perfect match for me! Thanks!

[@Sara-hhhh]

hi Amanda! I love your channel is the Kosas powder similar to MAC Mineralized Skinfinish?? Thanks!

[@hayleyhuber3415]

Hoping to get your opinion and for others to chime in too! What do you think about the powder with the IT CC? I currently used the CT powder with it and it’s slightly too perfecting for my everyday look. I just started a retin A for anti-aging purposes, but I’m pretty oily T zone and dry cheeks. I’m not looking to completely mattifying persé, but more tie my whole face together. Thank you!! Absolutely love your videos.

[@hayleyhuber3415]

Oh, and also the rare beauty concealer and Kosas concealer. I have both ☺️

[@DanielleNicoleMakeup]

Hey Amanda, how would you compare the Kosas concealer to the new creamy Shape Tape? Have you tried the new Tarte one? I love it but haven't tried Kosas yet

[@shannon6908]

I love the tinted oil but I just add a few drops to the Charlotte Tilbury tinted moisturizer.

[@Rain_Reign]

FYI the Kosas skin tint doesn’t contain any silicones and it definitely doesn’t work well with any silicone-based products in my experience (e.g., many sunscreens, primers, and cream blushes contain silicones). It is gorgeous with their cream blush and highlight though. I have that in Tropic Equinox and it’s a nice blush/bronzer shade on my fair warm toned skin ☺️

[@discopogo314]

My kosas concealer went bad in 6 months and I’ve seen other people having the same issue. Otherwise it would be a perfect concealer.

[@flowerandmakeuplover]

Thanks for sharing. Their cream blush/highlighter went bad before I used it up, which has made me hesitant to repurchase. I haven't had any problems with the tinted face oil or lipsticks.

[@Khaleesi_Of_Kittens]

You've gotta try the new Nudestix brow gel. Those shits are awesome.

[@Techev8076]

I loved the Kosas bronzer while it lasted. I don’t know if I received a dud but mine went bad after only one season.

[@nay.murray6097]

i was going to buy the dior powder no powder and then realized that the cloud set is very similar , so now im not sure which one to get , have you tried the dior one and whats your opinion on how or if they differ ?

[@justlm316]

Great review tfs

[@lilyrudy5679]

I find the face oil looks amazing right after moisturizer but looks terrible if I apply it much later. But these days, I dot the concealer all over for light coverage.

[@mayaallysse]

with the mascara, it definitely smudges on me :( i’m glad i purchased the mini and not the regular size one. i love how it makes my lashes look but i hate the smudging!

[@missdella4990]

It’s 1am so my phones automatically on the night time screen yellow mode, had to turn that off as soon as I start watching this video to see Amanda’s cinematic masterpiece in its true accuracy 😌

[@stuartbrickman5105]

I have the same issues with my under eye area. Is this your go to powder for undeyes? I’ve been using the bybterry hydra care setting powder.

[@_smv]

I on the other hand feel like the kosas concealer feels really heavy on my skin I’m not a fan of anything feeling makeupy so if it bother you too I don’t recommend it. Finish is so nice but it’s just too heavy for me

[@귤귤-y1x]

How come you didn't mention the cream blush? I've seen you use and rave about tropic equinox before haha

[@itsclaireity]

how does the clear air brow compare to the em cosmetics flexibrow? the latter is my holy grail, but the kosas is much more accessible to me (i’m in canada)

[@MoroccanMelody]

I love Kosas

[@azureandersen9465]

Can you review the Kosas baked bronzer compact? Thx!

[@spnikki16]

I tried the kosas concealer and while I like it initially after applying, throughout the day it creases so bad on me (whether I set it with powder or not). I think its the worst creasing concealer. I'm bummed because I wanted to like it and the finish looks nice, but I might be returning it if I can't make it work.

[@erinnswan7063]

For under eyes how does the Kosas stand up to your OG RCMA powder?

[@averiemadden3327]

Would be cool to find some new foundations and conealers you like. The kosas concealer doesnt have any good light cool toned shades. Neither does the synchroskin foundation.

[@sayantaniist]

[@peepo2560]

Does the concealer work well for spot concealing?

[@AB-gk7to]

I've tried and enjoyed the liquid eyeshadows and lipstick, but they all went bad within 3 months of opening them.

[@Breighyn]

Shades 1.5C and 2.5 C of the concealer look straight up yellow on my skin. 2.5 was also too dark so I took my chances ordering 1.5 and while its the right depth it is 100% just yellow on me. It's just a little unforgivable to me for a brand to describe a product as pink and have it show up as yellow on someone who is pink.

[@jackiemorin7251]
