Chat and Review of the VIRAL Laura Mercier Real Flawless Weightless Perfecting Foundation!

[@lyra2282]

Thank you for the first impressions review! Would be lovely to see a wear test or perhaps and update on how this wore.

[@foundationlady]

Hi Lyra! ❤️thank you so much for your comment! 😊 I felt so silly because I almost always do “end of day” pics in my videos, but I completely FORGOT on this one! 🤦🏻‍♀️😂 my apologies for the gaffe, I’ll do better in the future! ❤️❤️❤️

[@brynb1325]

Norm refuses to share the spotlight. Love it. This foundation looks beautiful on you! Great coverage but looks so skin like 😊

[@foundationlady]

Thanks so much Bryn! 🤗 I'm really enjoying this one! 💕 and you're sooo right about Norm... he can be a bit of a diva for sure...😂 oh wait, I gotta go, his limo just arrived...

[@janvann8386]

That foundation looks so good! I’m glad she finally did one for you 😘.

[@foundationlady]

Me too! 🥰 Thanks for gettin' it together Laura!! 😂

[@bryndabaker6782]

Ah, Jenny, you're tempting me out of my budget, too! Absolutely stunning foundation on you, thanks for the great video and review. Hugs to you, Normie, and the household. Stay warm, my friend, it's getting nippy out there. 🥶

[@foundationlady]

Hi Brynda! 🤗 I just joked with one of my viewers that I was going to change my name to "Temptation Lady!" 😂 Thanks so much for your sweet comment! I hope you are staying warm and cozy too! 💕 So much love to you dear one! 😇

[@nancyingram1734]

I use this during the winter months, I love it! It's very light weight, not heavy nor having to pull your skin trying to apply it. I have combination skin with Rosacea and it was enough coverage plus no break outs nor did I notice a smell. Now I need to find a foundation for the warm weather that is just as light weight for combo skin, this one is too hydrating for me during the summer months.

[@foundationlady]

I'm so glad you love this one too Nancy! 🥰 I agree with you, especially on the fact that it applies SO smoothly with no tugging! ❤️ Hopefully we can help you find one you love just as much for the summer! 🤞🏻 Have a beautiful day! 🤗

[@aleigha9141]

Hi!! ❤ this foundation looks so pretty on you! Absolutely stunning! Hope you are staying warm. We had 5° up in my neck of the woods this morning. Brrr 🥶 Sending much love hugs and prayers your way ❤️🙏 treats for Norm 🐾❤️

[@foundationlady]

Hi dear friend! 🤗 I'm sorry it's been so long.I've been taking a little time away from my computer... Has your 5' of snow melted yet? We've barely had any snowfall this winter! a couple of big storms, but then the rain melted it. (but of course winter isn't over yet... I may be eating my words soon... 🥰.) I hope you are doing well! Sending you so much love! ❤️ and kisses from Normie! 🤗

[@theredheadsaidNYC]

I tried this today at Sephora and loved it! “Slippery” is the right word for it. Makes me wonder if they mixed in some primer liquid aka “rain-X For the face.” It did look nice, and almost looked like it had a powdery finish! I also have a hard timet getting a foundation match for my skin and the ice vanilla looked great!

[@foundationlady]

"Rain-X" for the face! 😂 I'm laughing, but that truly is a brilliant observation! How delightful you are! 🥰 I'm so glad you like this one, and were able to find a good match! Don't you just love it when you're able to find a good foundation match?! It's like the clouds parting and the sun shining down! 😇 ok... maybe that's a bit dramatic.... but for those of us that have trouble finding a good match... it's close! Have a great day! 🌺

[@theredheadsaidNYC]

@@foundationlady you know what I mean though, right? Rain-X basically fills in the "holes" in your windshield so rain slicks off, and primer fills in the holes in your face so it looks smooth! :)

[@theredheadsaidNYC]

@@foundationlady ALSO I went and tried the RELOVE serum foundation an that was great too (F3)! Im' glad I found your channel!

[@foundationlady]

@@theredheadsaidNYC Oh YAY!!! I'm so glad! 🥰 that one is so fantastic (and such a GREAT price!) Thank you so much for telling me! ❤

[@theredheadsaidNYC]

@@foundationladyi’m not sure how well it wears, however. The Laura Mercier stuff stayed on very well. However, i can buy 10 bottles of the RELOVE for the cost of 1 mercier bottle!

Hi Jenny, you just look amazing 🤩 this worth the money. Thank you for sharing it with us 😊.

You are so sweet Mary! 😇 Thank you so much for your lovely comment! 💕 Have a beautiful day! 🌺

[@cleslie9250]

Yo. looks cool. That skin tint looks pretty good. Looks interesting enough I think I will pick it up to try

[@foundationlady]

I'd love to hear what you think of it! ❤️ I was surprised by how much I liked it!

[@cleslie9250]

So what color should I go with? Chiffon 1cl light or Ecru 2cl light? But. I think in a light- medium neutral. Kk u might ask alot of questions about color matching Luna aster is good but I want to at around with other brands too.

[@carols.4252]

I loved that Silk Creme Foundation. I used Rose Ivory I believe. I am NW 15/20 in MAC. This new one looks like the Haus Labs one. Serumy and glowy. That one is slippery too. That color match is perfect for you.

[@foundationlady]

I love your use of the word "slippery" to describe the foundations! 🥰 I'm going to have to borrow that word (if you don't mind...) After while it can be difficult to come up with words to describe the texture of a foundation! And you're right, it is slippery! 🥰 I hope you're having a beautiful day! 🐝💕

[@wandamccarty2171]

Looks beautiful! Might have to try it!

[@foundationlady]

Thanks so much Wanda! 🤗 I've really been enjoying this one. ❤️ I highly suggest popping into SEPHORA and grabbing yourself a sample if you have a chance! 🥰 I hope you are having a beautiful day! 🌺

I couldn’t find a color match .. cool tone looked orange

[@foundationlady]

Oh I'm so sorry Donna... I just hate it when I can't find a good match in a foundation I really want to try! ❤️

[@catherinepiper7830]

I love your videos. I am confused by the swatch comparisons. Your different foundations appear dramatically different in color and tone. Could you do a discussion on the how and why?

[@foundationlady]

Hi Catherine! Thanks again for your great questions! Whenever I purchase a foundation, I try to get it as close to my natural skin tone as possible, but sometimes, especially if I'm ordering them online (and can't see them in person) I get a shade that looks too light , or too deep, on my skin. I find that if I show the swatch of the shade I'm trying in that video, next to swatches of other foundations people may be familiar with, it can kind of give them a frame of reference for what shade will work for THEM. For example, I have several viewers who refer to me as their shade-"twin" or they'll say, "I'm just one shade lighter than you..." so when I try out a foundation and tell them, this foundation ran light on me, then they can have a frame of reference for what shade they should get. Also, you'll notice that I always use the "Missha M BB Cream in shade 21" as my last shade when I'm swatching. That is essentially my "control swatch." It's the closest to my natural skin shade and undertone (on my face.) Again it's just to share how similar/ different the swatch I'm using that day is to my natural shade. Sometimes, I don't have an option of a shade that is very close to my natural shade, but I know that viewers are curious about the foundation, how it wears, and all the other details about it... so I will try it anyway, and just let the viewers know, "This shade is going to be "off" for me..." that way they will know I'm trying it, not so much for my own personal use, but so that I can tell them how it wears, and what I think of it. That is why I have so many foundations that look so different, even though they are in the same "general" shade range. I hope that helps! 💕🤗🦋 Have a great week!

[@Patti-1962]

Wow, does this foundation look gorgeous on your skin, Jenny!! I am curious how much powder you used to get it to set so it lasts all day. That is my problem with super dewy foundations on 61 year old skin, only being able to use a small amount of powder before it looks cakey. What does peak my interest is how thin the texture is, and how nicely it applies!! I'm happy for LM that they were able to develop such a beautiful foundation!! And as always, you left no stone unturned when providing all the details. I also loved the fact that you did it live, so it feels like we are just hanging out while you try a new foundation!! Sending love and hugs, my sweet friend!❤❤❤🙏

[@foundationlady]

Hi Patti! 😇 I totally understand what you are saying about dewy foundations getting cakey when you use powder with them! That happens to me too! I actually made up my mind that I'm going to experiment more with the Mally EverColor Powerless Face Defender (the clear gel) in 2024. I just feel like I'm getting to that point where I want to really find good alternatives to powder. With this one though... If I remember correctly 🤦🏻‍♀️ 😂 I just went in with powder on the t-zone and around the pores just on the sides of my nose. Thanks also for the feedback on the live-style video. I'm wondering if I should try to include more of that style in the future? Sending so much love to you my dear prayer warrior, and praying for a good healthy and happy week for you! 🙏🏻😇❤️

[@Jo2878]

This foundation looks gorgeous on you Jenny 😍. The brush application finish is so smooth too. Thank you for the tip re oxidation. A shade going darker can end a would-be match in minutes. This LM foundation seemed to go 1-2 shades darker? For that finish, l'll add this one to my foundation wishlist 😊 xx

[@foundationlady]

Thanks so much for your lovely comment! ❤️ You are so right, oxidation can make a huge difference! I always try to remember to include it in my videos, because I know how many of us have to buy foundations online these days, and it can be so frustrating when you can't see a picture of how much a foundation oxidizes before purchasing! Thank again, so much! 🤗 Have a beautiful week! 🌺

[@belindafischer2920]

Hi Jenny 😊 I have this and ❤ it! I’m not sure why this just now is going viral because I got mine about 6 months ago at least probably longer than that! My skin is pretty much normal combination and it works well with it. I think it gives a nice medium coverage. I like it so much that I have a color for winter and a color for spring and summer. Enjoy!

[@Isthie]

Same here! I love it but this has been out for a while 😂

[@foundationlady]

I'm so glad you love this one Belinda! 🥰 Isn't it funny how a foundation can be out forever and then all of a sudden it goes viral?! I must've walked past this one 100 times, and then I saw how much traction it was getting on KZbin, and thought well now I HAVE to try it and see what all the fuss is about! ☺️ (I'm so glad I did! ) 💕 Have a great week my friend! 🌺

[@foundationlady]

@Isthie, I was definitely late-to-the-game on this one! 😂 But so glad I finally tried it! ❤️ Have a wonderful week! 💕

Oh well, I think Haus must wait. This is my next high-end foundation!

[@foundationlady]

They have a lot of similarities!! ❤️ Both are great! Would love to know what you think when you have a chance to try it! 😘

[@marielle7505]

Thanks for another fun video, Jenny. I'm so sad, I own this foundation and loved it, but the shade was not quite right. So I mixed a little bit of Maybelline superstay skintint in with the bottle, and now the shade is perfect, but the consistency is just not the same! And I only mixed in a little. I really should not have done that. Now my great foundation is just a nice foundation 😢

[@foundationlady]

Oh I'm so sorry! ❤️ That is such a bummer that happened, but thank you so much for sharing your experience, so we could know before mixing with this one!!! (You took one for the team! 🤗) I love that LM tweaked her shades to offer more undertones, but honestly feel like it would be a near perfect foundation if she offered just a few more TRUE neutrals/Olive undertones! 💕 I hope you have a lovely week Marielle!🙏🏻

[@69indigoblue]

Interesting....from your picture at 03:53 I would have picked none of the colors, because they are so far off your own skin tone, but on the face it looks so different and really good !! And in the end? 6 Minutes for putting on Foundation only is far too much for my likings...

[@foundationlady]

Thank you so much for watching and leaving such a thoughtful comment! 🤗 I was nervous too when I first saw the shade of this one! ☺️ I hope you have an absolutely wonderful week! 💐❤️

[@kathyknuteson2838]

That is beautiful. It looks really smoothing. How do you like it compared to the ReLove(?) serum foundation?

[@foundationlady]

Hi Kathy! ❤️ Great question! The Laura Mercier is not as thin as the ReLove by Revolution Serum. Also the Relove feels a little more moisturizing (actually it feels more like an oil than the Laura Mercier.) Both are great, clearly the LM is much pricier, but they both feel hydrating to me and have a nice even coverage that didn't cake up on me. 🤗

[@theredheadsaidNYC]

Your skin tone looks very similar to mine, so which shade in the ReLove did you use?

[@sandylay5831]

I returned it Showed all my pores I’m 66 combo . But I tried it in the summer could be fine doing the winter

Hi Jenny, what long wear drugstore foundation do you recommend? I have a business trip coming up and I will have some long days.

[@foundationlady]

Erin! I'm SO sorry I'm just writing back to you. 😢 For sure you have been and come back from your trip already.... I am so sorry it coincided with when I took a break from my channel (after all that happened with mom.) I feel terrible though that I wasn't able to help you before you went, because you've always been such a lovely and supportive viewer. ❤️ Just for future reference... when I need a foundation to last alllllll day, (and be sweat proof, water resistant, and just generally look at the end of the day, how it did at the beginning...) then I go with Revlon Colorstay...the version for OILY-Normal skin! I know that may sound weird because I'm always talking about how I have somewhat dry skin, but the OILY -normal version is just BETTER in my opinion than the version for dry skin. I just make sure that I'm moisturized and let it sink in... and then use plenty of the NYX HydraTouch Primer before applying thin layers of the ColorStay. I also really like the Almay TLC foundation (and if you're looking for a "splurge" the Estée Lauder DoubleWear is my go-to for those long days!) Agin, my apologies for the slow reply! ❤️❤️❤️
