5 Best & 5 Worst Foundations | HelenVarik

[@HelenVarik]

Ugh, I'm so sorry about that Catrice foundation fail 🙄 Anywho, let's create a discussion - leave your fave and least fave foundations in the comment section with your skin type. It'd be cool to compare notes and of course find out about great foundations ☺️ xx

Great video 💜💕💛 I've been loving the loreal true match foundation alot 💙💛💟💜💚

[@HelenVarik]

Thank you, Kelly! Always great to see you in the comment section 😍 I have that one too, but somehow the Fresh Wear one has stolen the show. Have you tried it? xx

[@kellywolfe5930]

@@HelenVarik yes actually I decided to wear it today after I watched your video the only thing is the scent on it ,it is quite strong with a floral scent at first and it takes a little while for it to disapait but I do like the finish and it is comfortable to wear 💛💙💟💜💚

[@HelenVarik]

@@kellywolfe5930 That's interesting, I didn't even notice the scent until you mentioned it 😂 It does have a floral scent, but I don't ever smell it when I'm applying it to my face... strange. But I'm glad you enjoy the finish and feel of it. I can't get enough of it 😍 xx

@@HelenVarik mine has a pretty strong scent it lingers on my face for a good 10 min. After application but it is a very beautiful and natural finish so it's worth it 💙💛💟💜💚

Yay for a new video! I’m still plugging away with the Catrice foundation... I love it. I would like something more dewy but I need to go drugstore on foundation because I get through it so quickly and I can’t have anything that tests on animals... hmmm... what should I try of your recommendations?! x x

[@emmafranks8129]

...my least favourite foundation? I love The Ordinary but the foundation doesn’t work on my combination/slightly oily skin! It splits and it’s NASTY!

[@HelenVarik]

@@emmafranks8129 Yeeeess! I don't think I'll ever get over my love for the Catrice HD 😄 Hmm... I don't think any of my recommendations would help you, if you're looking for a cruelty free dewy foundation from the drugstore. L'Oreal is sadly not cruelty free as far as I know, since they sell in China, otherwise I'd definitely recommend trying the Infallible Fresh Wear. It's SO amazing. I mean actually worth all the hype it's getting 😅 I also very much like the Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum foundation, but same thing - they sell in China, so they can't claim to be completely cruelty free. BUT I did see that Catrice has actually come out with a dewy version of our beloved Liquid Coverage, it's called the HD Liquid Radiance. I AM PRAYING that it'll be available to a wider market very soon. Oh, I did find a No7 foundation that's supposedly dewy and No7 is a cruelty free brand. It's called the HydraLuminous Moisturising Foundation (sounds so good, I am realllly interested in how it performs 🙈). Sadly I can't get No7 over here, so I have no idea, whether it's any good or not, but maybe it's worth a try? www.boots.com/no7-hydraluminous-moisturising-foundation-10262468 If you do decide to give the No7 one a try, please let me know how you like it. That one has peaked my interest 😅 Aww thanks hun for sharing your least fave foundation. I am not a huge fan of the Ordinary foundation either 😕❤️xxx

[@HelenVarik]

Hi Sangita! I'm so glad to have you join us ☺️ Thank you so much for the compliment, but I don't actually dye my hair. It's kind of like a chestnut colour, but yeah, it's my natural colour xx

@@HelenVarik thank u so much

[@SaLooHHU]

Girl i hate that too faced foundation(( matte peach))

[@HelenVarik]

Nooo, why do you hate it? 😩

[@SaLooHHU]

Oxidizing so much and so patchy on my skin

[@HelenVarik]

@@SaLooHHU That's such a pity 😔 I love how it looks on my skin. I guess it just goes to show how differently products work for people. What's your holy grail foundation though? It'd be very interesting to know ☺️ xx

[@SaLooHHU]

HelenVarik its ok hunn i have oily skin so my HG r mac fix fluid .. fenty beautyand estee lauder double wear

[@HelenVarik]

​@@SaLooHHU Gotcha. Could just be that it's not the best for oily skin then. Ooooh EL Double Wear was my holy grail for quite a while too some years back 🙌 But sadly MAC foundations break me out and the Fenty one is too heavy on my skin, but I can see how it'd be perfect for combo/oily skin 😉 Thanks so much for sharing your favourites xx
