"Best Foundations" Sold at Sephora

[@nelleconn8476]

I am 50 with dry skin. Getting used to my new older skin I finally Splurged on good foundations I have five of what you mentioned. Armani luminous silk and the Guerlain our by far, my favorite. They make me look 10 years younger love it. You’re amazing so glad I found your channel.

[@tabithaclark3014]

I'm 45 and plan to try some of these when I get out shopping next week. I have KVD serum foundation and I love it, I have used Estee Lauder double wear. It's beautiful but I want something less matt. I think I'll try Armani luminous silk. Thank you for your helpful comment. 😊

[@Christins8818]

ih yes, I live this one. it works so well on me ❤

[@Kori-Barrenger]

Does the Lisa Eldridge foundation dry down? I’m looking for something that isn’t drying but also doesn’t stay too tacky

[@AllySa33]

For my fellow migraine sufferers: Guerlain - highly perfumed and a definite no for me. Dior - not as cloying but still a no. Armani: yes, I can do it. Scent is subjective of course, but this one is light enough and dissipates quickly. It is a cleaner smelling fragrance (almost like soap?) and I think that's why I can get away with it. I have dry skin and can still wear the Power Fabric for special occasions as Nikki said. The Luminous Silk is my holy grail for every day. I buy the mini and sometimes I mix the two. Haus Labs, Pat McGrath and Nars are thankfully fragrance free, but the Nars and PML are too peachy for me. The Haus Labs does have a light olive that could work but it has more glow than the Armani which is not great for my pores. It is pretty but not as skin-like and doesn’t set down as well. I have not tried the La Mer due to price/fragrance or the KVD yet. I hope this helps those with chronic allergies. If you know, you know.

[@trishknight6983]

Estee Lauder has fragrance, then?

[@AllySa33]

@@trishknight6983 Sorry, no. They must have reformulated since I tried it bc I see it now says fragrance free. It was makeup-y and too full coverage for me, but that may be what you like. The Luminous Silk is hard to tell you have makeup on. If I need fuller coverage I wear the power fabric.

I decided to treat myself during the Sephora sale and picked up the Dior Forever because of your recommendation. It's almost magic how well it controls my oils while still looking like skin. My husband asked me after I had been wearing it for 10 hours if I had touched up my makeup because it looked so freshly applied. Game changing recommendation for me Nikki!

[@laBuffiesuzanne]

I’m 70 and live in Louisiana, and have used several of your favorites. The one that is my all time favorite and the one I always come back to however, is hands down Estée Lauder Double Wear! I know it’s not necessarily the most popular right now, but it is unbeatable in my opinion!

[@MsAmelia65]

Me too! I still love my double wear; especially when I’m feeling I need extra help. I still also love Lancôme. Does no one wear that one anymore? I feel so old school but these are all so good, too!

[@carolpeterson5515]

I’ve recently figured out that a small amount of foundation applied with a sponge gives same effect as a tint and is more cost effective because you need less product.

[@Sweetpea-wc1ds]

Hi! I second your comment I prefer skin tints or tinted moisturizers as well. I hope she does a video for those but in the meantime a nice trick is just getting a bit of foundation and mixing it with your moisturizer, creates a custom tinted moisturizer :)

I’ve also taken to mixing foundation with an untinted sunscreen. An extra note- amazed how much I like Maybelline’s Super Stay. It’s glowy without being over the top and doesn’t look makeupey.

[@Brenda_Leigh57]

Thank you so much for taking the time to do your tutorials. I did watch the entire video of your foundations. I have been wearing Estée Lauder Doublewear for 30 years now. I have tried switching up to others, but always find myself going back to the Estée Lauder double wear or the Estée Lauder Futurist Hydra Rescue Foundation. I find for my money these give me the most coverage for what I want. I am a Retired Registered Nurse and wanted the long day coverage, so that is what I wore. I did try the Haus Labs foundation as a sample and two from Dior and liked them both, but they didn’t give me the coverage I needed. I am 67 years old, and don’t think I’ll change now.

This is what I do for a foundation bottle without a pump: take the cap off, then put your index finger over the top and press the bottle with the index on top and thumb underneath, and shake to mix. Then, put down the bottle, and that dot of makeup on your index finger when you shook the bottle, that’s what goes on the face. Repeat as needed. Not only can you control how much you put on, but it’s also CLEAN. No spillage, no dripping, all control. Hope this helps someone. 😁

[@YT-bv7ke]

Estée Lauder Double Wear is the GOAT! Every time I try to find something better to replace it with, sadly, I end up returning because for me to keep a foundation, it has to be better than what I’m using. Don’t be scared if you have dry skin. I’m almost 45 with dry, dehydrated skin (but not flaky) and hyperpigmentation, and I love Double Wear. I also live in a humid climate, and just as Nikki said, this STAYS PUT all day. I just wish it came with a pump. I buy the pump separately for $10. But at $52, like come with a dang pump! It used to be just under $50, but they’ve raised their price and still no pump. But it performs. I use Estée Lauder’s Maximum Coverage foundation as a concealer for my melasma/hyperpigmentation on my upper cheeks and less than a pump of the Double Wear on top all over. You don’t need more than a pump or it can look heavy. I really wanted to try the Guerlain one because so many KZbinrs rave about it. It did not beat Double Wear on my skin. Didn’t like the fragrance and looked more drying in some areas and was not as smoothing over my forehead fine lines as Double Wear is. But one I really have been impressed with and kept this year was Mac Studio Radiance Serum Powered Foundation sold at Ulta. Currently on sale for $34.50 (regularly $46). If you’re looking for something on the more radiant end and not velvety matte like Double Wear, try it out. It looked beautiful on my skin. I found Haus Lab looked beautiful and glowy upon initial application, but that one emphasized my fine lines.

Thank you for this! I would just mention to light skin peeps that the Guerlain runs deep. I had to purchase shade 0N to get a match. For reference I am Yukon 2.5 in Nars Sheer Glow and shade 130 in Haus Labs. I love the Guerlain just thought I'd mention the shade issue 😊

[@Makeupbynikkilarose]

That’s a really good point because I definitely noticed that too!!

Nikki, you are so pleasant to watch amongst many reasons.

[@Sabrina-LosAngeles]

I have loved the Armani Power Fabric for years and tend to mix it with other foundations (like the La Mer or Guerlain) to add a tiny bit more coverage to it. Love your channel - thank you for all the recommendations, tips & tricks ~

Excellent selection, Nikki!!! I watched your other video and was blown out of the water. I actually was in between Dior Backstage and the Haus Labs Foundation, but your comments finally helped me make up my mind! I bought the Dior Backastage a few days ago. I am hoping it will be a big hit! Thank you for being so candid and honest about makeup products that could be otherwise too darn overhyped and expensive. I love your channel! Keep up the superb work! I look forward to watching more of your content!!!

Thank you so much for doing this. Would love to see this for concealers too!!

[@brittanyh6911]

Nikki, this is a GREAT video! I’ve been on the fence about Haus Labs but you’ve sold me! Can we please get an updated brow routine? They are looking amazing here. I can’t seem to get those hairlike strokes, especially at the front of my brows, to look natural and not blocky!

I loved the La Mer foundation, got a lot of compliments,, the down was the scent… it was the only foundation that i finished fast. I never bought again, as pandemic happened. Now i more on skin tints already or sometimes just powder,

[@Lin-LWR]

You’re wonderful Nikki! Thanks so much for your expert advice!

[@7ettebette]

Nikki, you are so sweet and knowledgeable. I love listening to you and watching you! You are so kind and inspiring! ❤

You are my favorite educational makeup KZbin channel. I have been using KVD serum foundation for almost a year now. It's definitely my favorite I have ever used. I was thrilled to see how happy you were with it when you first tried it. I haven't tried some of the others you love yet. I'm finally going makeup shopping next week. How will I decide which to try 😂 maybe I can get samples. Ohh I need to find a mascara video. My super short and straight lashes need help.

[@Makeupbynikkilarose]

Been loving that foundation so much ! Wish I had tried it sooner honestly! And speaking of mascara I am filming one soon!! ❤️❤️

[@stephanytaylor810]

​@@Makeupbynikkilarose what's a good translucent pressed powder that's good for dry skin like just one good for touch ups on the go?

[@Brenda_Leigh57]

Try Thrive Mascara, love it!❤️

[@dsmithteam6]

I’m loving the new KVD long sleeve tubing mascara

[@tabithaclark3014]

Can't wait for the mascara video! Thank you ladies for the suggestions. I'll check them out when I go shopping next week. Gotta restock some things for my mini vacation to Asheville. I'm going to get that Givenchy powder. I'm super excited to try it.

Im 59 I am so glad to see my favorite Dior face and body on the list. I have dry skin and Dior never fails me.

[@itzeldelgado1586]

I saved up to buy La Mer and how spectacular it was! Nikki I hope you made a video of some Chanel foundations but in the future since you have many for now. I love your content! ❤

[@Makeupbynikkilarose]

Thank you so much for watching and sharing that you love the la Mer too!!!

[@jdhay88]

I would ❤ a link to all of your incredible jewelry - all of your pieces are pure perfection!

[@andreamagwood7050]

I got a sample of the Dior Glow this week and tried it on in 90 degree weather. It looked so surprisingly beautiful; I usually wear mattes because it gets 122 degrees here and I have combo oily skin. It got a little “glowy” while I was pumping gas but once inside, perfect again. And Estée Lauder is indeed the OG. I’m waiting on a good sale to repurchase it.

[@carak4356]

Girl ❤ I have been looking for something like this. Thx for all your hard work. I don’t know how your do it!!
