Can This New elf Makeup Take the Heat? Soft Glam Satin Foundation & More!

LOL I just realized you can't see what time it is in the before shot because my screen brightness was up 😅 it was 8:10 AM!

As someone who lives in constant humidity, this was super helpful, thank you! A tip about heavy mascara with straight lashes: once the mascara dries, you can hook your finger under your lashes and push and hold them up against your lids for a few seconds to have them curl naturally! Mascara will hold the curl after this. I do it all the time!

[@slashedbeauty]

Thank you!! Will definitely try that!

[@pbcaylor_1]

Great review! Thx!! This is in store now at WalMart (at least in Vegas!) so I’m going to pick one up tomorrow - since I’m debating between a cool or neutral - I want to see it in person. Seems to me this has a bit of a “your shade but better” technology as most reviews I’ve seen - the color they chose seems “off” - till it sort of “adjusts” on their skin. Even though I’m in my 60’s I tend to reach for my powder foundations more than cream or liquid. But this is getting so many rave reviews! And your testing it in our high Vegas heat was the “push” I was looking for to give it a try! I saw another reviewer who used the “Moira” shadow in a different shade, so I may hunt one of those down, too. Fun review!

[@slashedbeauty]

Thanks so much for watching! Yes, I did notice it to match better (and closer to the shade shown on the website) once it was dry!

[@annekehildebrandblog]

The look you created was beautiful. I definitely need to try the new setting spray and the lip colour

[@slashedbeauty]

Thank you! I was impressed how everything wore!

[@annekehildebrandblog]

@@slashedbeauty you are welcome. Can we please get your thoughts on the Tir Tir Foundation that has gone viral

[@Blondie-cu8rw]

I just came upon your channel, and thanks for the heat test! Love the eyeshadow, and will definitely be buying that. I just started to use some of the ELF products, so I’ll add more to my list😊

Love this thank you! I just purchased a ton from their site... we first ran into it when my daughter and I were at JC Penney's .. the cost and ingredients were my go to..

[@Lyvvie]

I appreciate that you've done a sweat test with the foundation. I don't bother wearing foundation as I'm in a hot climate but I've seen good results with this one.

[@slashedbeauty]

Usually when it's this hot I might just spot conceal without doing a full layer, but you never know-- sometimes ya got plans and places to be more glam! LOL Thank you for watching!

[@dandelionmama7321]

I LOVE the suntouchable sun screen gel. It's fantastic! So sad it's taken me so long to find it! ❤❤

[@rachelrae860]

I just bought this and I loved it on my 54 year old skin ❤. I bought one shade lighter than the darkest one causeI'm super tan rn and it's been so crappy out in South Florida but I'm sure I'll be getting more but I use the Neutrogena SPF 100 and then I wear a big floppy hat so I match my Foundation to my chest but I would never be able to pull off that color during the winter time even though we really don't have a winter but I definitely am not as dark in the winter times but yeah I loved the way it looked and blend it out great with my cream blush and I don't really Contour cuz I feel like I'm too old and I use very little concealer but again it Blended effortlessly so that's my opinion lol 😆

[@slashedbeauty]

So glad it works for you!! And yes, I've been wearing hats or my visor to help keep my skin out of the sun!

[@cath3rine9]

Wow I’m super impressed with the foundation!! I’ve been wanting to get something long lasting and more hydrating for summer. I might have missed this but did you use any setting powder over it?

[@slashedbeauty]

No-- I only tested the one half with the setting spray, the other half I didn't set with anything just to see how it did by itself!

[@andreamagwood7050]

I appreciated your wearing it outside in 104 heat, although crazy, since it’s going to be 110 today here (typical), and wanting to see how it handled in the heat outside. I only wore it inside on a 105 day and it did well for a few hours. I enjoyed the new Elf lip liner. $2. If you want to try those.

[@slashedbeauty]

Ooh thank you for the recommendation!!

[@annrupp7874]

The CAMO Hyrating CC Cream is amazing! I found the perfect match for me in Light 25 N. I also really like the Soft Glam Satin foundation in the same color. The CC cream gives more coverage. They are both great and affordable products. I would really like to hear your opinion about the CC concealer. I have to stay on a budget (except for a few splurges), and think ELF does a great job of providing very high quality, affordable skin care, facial makeup and eye makeup. And of course, they have great makeup application sponges and brushes. I really enjoyed your tutorial/review and subscribed. Looking forward to see more from you. Thank you!

[@slashedbeauty]

I didn’t have the best experience with the original cc cream but I know they just put out a hydrating one that may work better for me! I do love that it has spf in it. I also find the hydrating camo concealer to work better for me than the matte! Thanks so much for watching and subscribing 😄

[@katiebrunner4376]

I’ve had the setting spray for over a month and I have heard to get good staying power you need to set it without shaking. If you want hydration shake it but it won’t really set it

[@slashedbeauty]

That's so weird... the issue with that is it separates in the bottle so you're not getting the whole formula if you don't shake it??

[@katiebrunner4376]

@@slashedbeauty I agree.

Your headband is EXACTLY what I’ve been looking for. Mind mentioning where it’s from? A link would be great for that specific one! So cute on you!

[@lyubamelisaalagoz4864]

Hi Miranda! Thank you so much for all your work, you are always so helpful and thoughtful and try to cover as much as you possibly can giving all the details ❤ I was wondering if you set the eye shadow primer? I didn’t see you do it in the video but do you generally? Recently I have noticed that my shimmer eyeshadow just won’t stick to the set eye lids

[@slashedbeauty]

Typically I do that when I’m using multiple shades to help them blend, but not when I’m only using one shadow :)

[@cherylkozak6259]

The foundation looks amazing! I’m not sure if you can even compare this but my go to is the maybelline skin tint(mainly because of your video when it came out and the testimony of how well it stays through sweat and heat). I live in Florida and it’s become my holy grail foundation. Would you say the new elf one is as good as the maybelline skin tint? I’m looking for something to use as a second foundation option

[@slashedbeauty]

Maybelline definitely has better coverage but I feel like this is just as comfortable (if not more lightweight) -- just less coverage! Still a very natural finish that's super even.

[@mhoney83]

Essence has new products too. Would you be willing to test them as well? ❤I love the elf cosmetics products. I didn't know they had a new foundation.... I honestly thought as I'm not fully awake that it was wet n wild photo focus

[@slashedbeauty]

Wet n wild has a new one out too that I want to try! And yes-- I actually think the brand said they were going to send some of their new stuff to me next month so I'll be ready to try them!

[@loribaker8339]

New sub! You covered things nobody else does! Did the eye shadow primer make your eyes watery? After almost using a whole tube of Milani, I realized it doesn't like my eyes! My lids are oily too, so I definitely need a primer. Dominique Sache swears by the ELF Quad of bronzer/contour. She'll even use it as eye shadow at times. Sorry, elf makes a couple and I don't know what one she uses. The look was great on you. I'm 65 and still struggle with acne. Yes, you read that right! I can only use a Neutrogena foundation, but this new elf foundation looks so wonderful on everyone that's tried it. I may have to buy some and wear it on short makeup wearing days. Thanks!

[@slashedbeauty]

Thanks so much, Lori!! I haven't had an issue with the primer making my eyes water, but neither does the Milani. I've tried the bronzer quads in the past, they're great!

[@deena681]

I am excited to see you try this. How does this hold up in the heat compared to L’Oréal infallible and Maybelline superstay skin tint? I have combo skin but this girl sweats buckets!

[@slashedbeauty]

Maybelline is a step up with coverage (and staying power of that coverage) but if someone doesn’t need full, this is a great lightweight option! I’ve tested the Maybelline more extensively, especially in humid climates, but this held up well even after my sweaty walk.

[@maureenbyrd4642]

Hmm, I liked the Milani tubing mascara. Maybe Elf is better? I'll try.😊

[@EnvyBlu]

This foundation always looks great on everyone who has tried it! I may have to try it out 😊. Every time I use an Elf complexion product my face breaks out, so I’m scared to try it. I’ll have to give it a bit and see if anybody else has this problem with the foundation

[@slashedbeauty]

Oh no! I wonder what it is-- I don't suppose you've compared ingredients list to see any common things that could be an allergen for you?

[@joannamartin8916]

The new brow gel is amazing! I’m honestly shocked it was so easy to find in Canada and not the US. That must be a first.

[@slashedbeauty]

It’s available here, it’s just sold out near me and I wanted to make this video faster than it could be shipped 😅

[@teri2466]

I ordered 15 Warm & 21 Neutral. I have a slight yellow undertone, but I wasn't sure how yellow the Warm would be. It turns out that 21 Neutral got very yellow & was too dark, while 15 Warm was perfect. 🤷‍♀️ I love your hot weather foundation reviews, thanks! ❤

[@slashedbeauty]

I'm glad you at least got it right with one of your choices! It's so difficult to choose foundation shades online. Perhaps you can use 21 as a mix-in for a DIY tinted moisturizer??

I was also suprised that milabu was wearing the 20 light cool when thats a good shade for me and she is always the fair shade when im light. Also i just got home from my first ever visit to vegas during the heat wave. Dry heat was great for my hair awful for my skin my face looks 5 + years older. My undereye skin looks like fish scale and for the first time in my life my heels are dry and cracked Im moisturizing like crazy its getting sucked in instantly. 😮

Yes it’s super dry here!!! Especially in the heat, it’ll dry you up like an oven!

I haven't found a better tubing mascara than Thrive. Their formula is superior. And I am stuck on the new L'oreal liquid blushes in Dewy Worth It. It's beautiful!

I also experienced this foundation drying down darker and pinker. Oxidation and dry down are different (like someone else mentioned)! It sucks bc the shade 32 Medium Neutral is a great olive shade until it dries down 😢

[@slashedbeauty]

Yes! Wasn't aware they were different as I feel like I've heard the term regarding shades that adjust color once applied. I do feel like their shade chart refers to the dried down shade though.

I tested the elf soft glam again today. I wasn't going to because it melted off my face before. I was going to save it for fall and winter. But then my go-to Maybelline skin tint melted off my face. So, I tried elf soft glam again. This time with more powder. It held up well. But, it was not quite as hot today. So, I am going to try it again tomorrow. I have a walking trip tomorrow so it will be a good test. I am thinking maybe I am oilier than I realized and I need to use more powder.

[@slashedbeauty]

That could definitely be! I’m curious what you’re using for primer?

[@Lisa-ir2gz]

@@slashedbeauty elf power grip primer with 4% niacinamide. Until recently I was also using Milani Make it Last setting spray. I used it until I ran out. Now I am using a setting spray I got in my ipsy bag called final touch. But, I really didn't see a big difference until I started using more powder (especially on my forehead). I am using the elf translucent loose setting powder (not the halo one). But I was using such a tiny amount. Today, I put more. Not enough to look cakey or anything..but more than I was. But then ended up a bit cooler today. I need another really hot day (which may be tomorrow) to see if the powder has fixed the issue.

[@taraellis4345]

I’m on day 2 trying this foundation and I did day 1 with a brush and day 2 with a sponge and I’m really struggling with it getting cakey and/or breaking down by the end of the day 😑 still trying to figure it out!

[@slashedbeauty]

Interesting! Would you say you're dry or oily? What primer are you working with?

[@taraellis4345]

@@slashedbeauty usually dry except the T zone. Day 1 I didn’t want to use a primer just my usual moisturizer so I had a clean slate as to how it applied. Day 2 I used a more moisturizing primer because it seemed part of how it applied was because my skin was dry. So I’m lost 😞

[@slashedbeauty]

@@taraellis4345 Hmm interesting, and are you setting it with anything? One thing I would recommend is waiting a little bit longer between moisturizer and foundation-- sometimes when I put on foundation too quickly after moisturizer it can change the consistency. Are you used to dewy foundations? What's your go-to?

[@rapunzel2357]

I want to try the foundation but im scared to order the wrong shade but i havent seen it at target yet. Omg idk why when you checked your eyeshadow and only closed one eye at a time it freaked me out 😅

It's not really oxidizing, it's drying down. Like how lotion is white but applies clear. Oxidation takes a long time, much longer than just a day of wear. That mascara is my favorite though.

[@slashedbeauty]

Perhaps this was a term that was coopted by the beauty reviewers incorrectly, but either way, it dries down to be darker/pinker than when first applied 😁 I did a control swatch on my arm, waited about 5-10 minutes and then swatched it again and it was at least 2 shades deeper-- so people should keep it in mind when choosing a shade if they're making snap decisions! So glad you like the mascara! Do you experience flaking at all?

It doesn’t oxidize. It dries down.

[@slashedbeauty]

As I’ve been told! Perhaps that word has been used incorrectly all this time but yes, it dries down deeper than it looks initially out of the tube. I did two swatches side by side, one 5 min after the first and the dried down shade is deeper/pinker than an initial swatch!

[@EnvyBlu]

Despite the grammar police…can we just please keep calling it “oxidizing” 🤦🏻‍♀️ This is the word that’s been established in the beauty community for decades, to describe a foundation that dries down darker. It’s an easy, useful, one word, to tell people the foundation gets darker.
