HONEST HAUS LABS FOUNDATION REVIEW and WEAR TEST for DRY SKIN - Does It Work?

[@samanthagreenberg7309]

My favorite foundation of all time. Love that it's basically full coverage but still natural looking. It's my go-to for when I need a foundation to last all day. Im typically all about the glow, but I find this foundation to have enough of a natural finish that it's easily to manipulate

[@allisonbb716]

I’m in my 50s with very dry skin. This foundation works for me when I prep carefully, use finishing spray and use as little as possible. If I use too much - or if I powder, I look like the Sahara at the end of my very long days!

[@Sandymarr_]

I'm 32 with dry skin during the winter time and oily skin during the summer and this is hands down my favorite foundation and would be ok with it being the only one I own! I've found that it works well on both! Doesn't emphasize texture or dryness on me. Super comfortable and find it works well with a sponge and brush 😊

[@Kikithewildling]

Nice! Will have to try. Have the same issues with my skin.

[@carolinaherrera2405]

Does it have alcohol and scent

[@michelletroop6359]

I love how comfortable this foundation is, the longevity of it, and the coverage. What I’m not sure I love is the finish. I’m combo leaning dry with mature skin and I’m finding that I prefer a slightly more matte finish. I can powder this but that can be a slippery slope with my skin.

[@kbonk1]

I hope you try it when the weather warms back up. I have dry skin(37 years old, have used IT! Cosmetics CC cream for years! Also, I live in Northern Michigan. )I am loving this with a light dusting of Melt Cosmetics Glazed Skin Finishing Powder and IT! Cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eye Concealer. I like that this foundation sets down more than the IT! Cosmetics CC Cream Foundation. I have gotten so many compliments on my skin since I switched to the Haus Labs Foundation.

[@GuadalupeBernabe5902]

I have dry maturing skin and I love this foundation. I will say during the summer I didn't use it as much but once I started using the Herbivore face oil as part of my skincare routine, it looks better. Doesn't look dry and I never use primer. Just Tatcha Dewy moisturizer and the face oil, sun screen and Mac Fix plus before applying it.

[@heathercordova2888]

I tried this foundation and from what I remember it looked good at first but 3 hours later it looked greasy separated and didn’t stay all day. I have since tried other Haus Labs products and love them, so I was thinking maybe I should try this again…. But after watching you I might just save my money and time. Thanks for the detailed review Mal and I’m praying for your healing and that you feel better soon.

[@ImMalloryBrooke]

I tried this one more time on a different day and used less of it…it still made me look terrible! Thank you❤️

[@GagaMEFr]

you should try the highlighter ! amazing product

[@rosheezy]

I have dry sensitive skin and I mix that foundation with tinted sunscreen and looks really nice all day!

[@TJ-bn2cn]

As long as you know that mixing anything with sunscreen, dilutes it and you still protect yourself.

[@kellymcclintock5123]

I have used for almost a year. IMHO, it does separate if I use moisturizer underneath, and seems to work better without a primer.

[@MidnightMuse102]

Thank you so much for doing such a thorough review (always) but especially on this. So many other influencers & reviewers are like “omg so amazing holy grail new fave run don’t walk” but they never leave their ring or studio light. Thanks to you I’m not falling for that anymore 🖤

[@TJ-bn2cn]

I have to disagree that other influencers are only saying it’s their holy grail, there’s plenty of honest mixed reviews on KZbin.

[@cs-yq5ed]

Beautiful eye look, Mallory! I hope you begin to feel better soon.

[@ImMalloryBrooke]

thanks girl, I hope so too!

[@sueanderson9860]

Tried. Wanted to love. Did not. Returned!

[@taniapannellini5209]

I struggled with pores and gathering and separation as well...not worth the price for sure, I prefer my Givenchy foundation or even my Sephora Care one, loaded with skin care as well, but way better performing and long lasting: huge dissappointment, especiallu from such a hipped brand. Thanks for sharing your honest review!

[@ColorMakesMeHappy.]

Ry Makeup Forever Hydra Glow. It’s really pretty and makes your shin have a fresh glow.

[@sueanderson9860]

Honestly you look like you have something on your skin. It so darned perfect! ❤

[@stevieray7203]

Prayers the treatment works for you 🙏🏻

[@lilamia9994]

It’s true what they say it’s not a one size fits all. This is my HG foundation. And I have tons of texture on my cheeks and yet it doesn’t emphasize it at all. This foundation on my combo oily skin stays put all day. I keep trying other foundations during the sale and I returned them all and just got my winter shade in Haus Labs.

[@AnnaHart-zb9dd]

I think you’re right on this one, I see super conflicting takes on this foundation, but it seems like there are just so many other foundations out there that are better. Have you tried the Basma stick foundation? I’ve seen amazing reviews for that one!

[@ImMalloryBrooke]

I hate that I hated it! Love the concealer, but this just did not work for me at all! I haven’t but I love a stick or cream formula❤️

[@emilycunningham8653]

I had the exact same impression. It does last all day, but just doesn’t look good. You can see that you have makeup on and it highlights texture. Also, I used it for a few weeks and it broke me out with tiny bumps.

[@onewhisper22005]

I like washing my blender right before I go to bed and then letting it dry overnight and then in the morning it’s the perfect dampness…not fully dry but not too wet either. I found if I wet it and ring it out, I don’t like how it applies as much

[@VikkiBounds]

I was wanting a new foundation a few months back & after sampling a few I chose this 1. I've really been enjoying it. Have a couple others in my sights next. Lol.

[@rose_quartz_loveandlight]

mallory I think you would really love the new shiseido glow foundation ❤

[@brandiphillips3441]

I don’t love on myself either. However, from what I’ve heard is there is a sweet spot when it comes to the amount you use. Maybe try and use less and see what u think. I haven’t tried again yet because the color I got is not right.

[@joanneblakely2498]

Mallory everything I have tried from Haus is an A+

[@aliciaowens741]

I have normal to dry skin and I’ve found the key is to moisturize well, use less than a full pump, and rub it in with your fingers a bit before going in with a brush.

[@omhomelin]

Hi Mallory, I’m with you - I have normal to dry”ish” skin and the Haus Labs Fdn (160) looked beautiful upon application however 2 hours later it was breaking up between my eyebrows and it wore off my nose completely. A little goes a long way but it just wasn’t flattering on me AT ALL 👎🏽

[@ImMalloryBrooke]

Thanks for sharing!! I love knowing 1) how it works on all of you, 2) that I'm not crazy 🤣

[@linseylinsey]

I have this and I like it. I don't love it. I'm genuinely happier with Revlon Illuminance. That just sits so nicely and is not fussy at all about how it's applied.

[@sliceoheaven2]

I’ve tried soo hard to love this foundation because I don’t want to be wasteful and I spend $ on it😭 I’m 31 (on spironolactone and retin a for acne prevention) so my skin leans slightly dryer. This foundation looks beautiful at first but dries out over the coarse of the day, sinks into any little line, and leaves my skin a little irritated afterwards. It’s odd because it claims to calm redness..

[@purplerain902701]

Can you please try the polite society foundation I heard really good things about it…❤❤❤

[@erindanner9173]

My advice… I hated it at first too and had similar issues. Don’t apply directly to skin. Apply to back of hand and coat the brush thoroughly. Start on the perimeter and buff the product closely to the center. I would add one pump at a time to build coverage. I personally found it is not great at layer w/ other brands products or in general w/o enhancing texture.

[@luciaayaso2260]

I've heard the Tom Ford foundation stick is really good for dry, even mature skin and that it helped someone with the redness on there face with calming it down and soothing. I too have many illnesses that affect me on a daily and can easily end up with rashes so I'm really curious.

[@katiek1979]

I have to say I agree with you. I’m 44 and don’t have dry skin but it does really pick up on texture on me. I did pick up the glossier foundation per rec and it’s been great!!!!

[@thedarlingdeb]

I love the concealer, I need to try the foundation. Love your channel ❤

[@ImMalloryBrooke]

Let me know if you do! I hope it works better for you! Thank you❤️

[@leannecaporrella8792]

I would love to try Haus Labs but the shipping to Australia is crazy! I have to say again, your skin is really beautiful ❤

[@ImMalloryBrooke]

Thank you!!! I’ve been using some different skincare lately that is helping with the extra dryness. It’s from special me✨

[@babysaaaage]

Thank you for your honest review 💗

[@ashleygibson1]

Always love your perspective! I got a sample of the concealer and really liked it. Will get it at some point when my shade is no longer sold out. With this review I may skip the foundation cuz I’m a dry girlie too.

[@shawnaday1354]

Your eye makeup is stunning!

[@hildawg69]

i also have dry skin and tbh hated the foundation.... it pills TERRIBLY with my sunscreen, and i refuse to skip out on sun protection

[@CamilleRodriguez]

I didn’t like this foundation at first because I felt like it looked separated BUT I stopped using water based moisturizers or primers and it used a silicone based primer which helped a lot with how it sat on my skin. The formula has so many silicones that I feel like it’s a little finicky.

[@TheVersatileVirg0]

Ahhh Virgo Sister! I’m so sorry it didn’t work out for you! 😢 surprisingly for me and my 31 year old skin; my skin did so well with it! I don’t normally purchase from celebrity brands (they’re rich as it is) but I love Gaga so I thought why not. I loved it! Idk if maybe the foundation paired with other concealers/other makeup, etc or even certain skincare prior to make application may be a reason why it didn’t turn out well? I wore the foundation with One/Size by Patrick Starr to set it and i looked SOOOOOO dry and the foundation looked so bad. 😭

[@YeliMe]

🙌 Girlll thank YOUUU I was going to lose it if you were going to praise this one😂😂😂. No but seriously I bought it TWICE because of all the constant hype and it looks glowy great for 15 min then it was like BAM textured skin on all my problem areas. Omgg you have to try the Ciele tint!!!! I have tried it all and on my dry mature skin with large pores on cheeks it is soooo smoothing and long lasting. It is with the hype and my number holy grail ☝️👏👍

[@ImMalloryBrooke]

Hahahahahahaha omg the cheek pores of it all! TRAGIC what it did to us.

[@mollee_llama]

I have dry sensitive skin with lots of fine lines and I love this foundation. I’m so sad it didn’t work out for you.

[@skylilly1]

The comments are all over the place it looks like I would have to get a sample of this. I would have the same issues you’re having. I hope you feel better soon.

[@Soy.patricia]

I have been using this foundation for 6 months now and it is one of the few foundations I am almost about to finish and ready to repurchase it. So sad to hear it hasn’t work for a lot of people because on my normal skin looks perfect at the end of the day. Maybe a bit of shiny since I live in very humid weather but it does not look “makeupy” or accentuates texture on me.

[@shandagronbach5128]

I'm 45 and I love this foundation use it everyday

[@shalar01]

I would love to know your current favorite foundation that doesn't enhance pores and skin texture? I had the same issues

[@anadanaya]

Hi Mallory, from what I have heard (I did not tried that foundation) Is that less is better and one pump is enough for the whole face. Maybe give it another shot .....

[@ImMalloryBrooke]

I tried it again, with less product (maybe a little less than a whole pump) but it still enhanced my dryness😢 It did look better, but not good enough !

[@anadanaya]

@@ImMalloryBrooke Thank you for the feedbackMallory, since this was one of the foundations that picked my curiosity. Just like you I do have dry skin, and on top of that I have mature skin (just turned 60 yrs old). There is on foundation that I am so impressed with: I have the Surrratt surreal skin , (the one with the brush on the tip) and my oh my... the blurring is real but still luminous without being oily or glossy. I think they performed some kind of magic with that product. Are you familiar with it? What is your opinion?

[@anadanaya]

[@podosea]

@@ImMalloryBrooke awesome!!! thanks

[@robynepstein7488]

I feel like I am the one person who doesn't like either the haus labs concealer or foundation. The concealer looks textured and dry on me (and I don't have textured or dry under-eyes!) and the foundation starts breaking up within a couple of hours on me so is not long lasting on my skin. I have combo skin and am in my late 20s. I only ever use this foundation mixed in with another more long-lasting foundation (and also because I want to use it up since it was pricey and I waited to long to return it).

[@Theycallmemona3]

It will be 4 degrees here by tonight so cold I would rather it be 29 degrees, I have never really tried this foundation but a lot of people say its a nice foundation. I have combination skin so not sure it would be for me either.

[@ImMalloryBrooke]

id rather it be 29 than 4 too!! 🤣 if you give it a try def report back and let us know. like I said, the concealer was great, but the foundation just doesn't work on my skin

[@zozofab02]

I did not love this foundation either which bummed me out at first cause everyone raves about it. I like a radiant, lightweight, smoothing, and seamless finish. I may be a lil picky tbh 😂. Right now nothing can hold a candle to the new hourglass skin tint. It checks off all my boxes, use it daily.

[@ImMalloryBrooke]

I was SO BUMMED too!!! I tried it again, used less, and still did not like it on me at all! The HG skin tint is GORGEOUS✨Have you tried DM Yummy Skin Tint?! It is my absolute FAVORITE

[@zozofab02]

@@ImMalloryBrooke I’m right there with you. I had the full bottle of the Haus Labs tried to love it, used it twice, and just had to return. I think it’s just a little too heavy and thick in consistency. Yes, I have tried the yummy skin tint! That is a good tint also. I tried the new MAC foundation, it held up great on my oily skin. I watched your review on it as well. Tried the fenty stick…didn’t like it. There were some good launches this year, but I ultimately just purchased and only kept the HG tint. I’m trying to behave and not over buy like I use to 😮‍💨🙃. But I like to trial and see 😂 The best thing I like I keep and use non stop. I enjoy your reviews as I find them honest without the sugar coating other people do.

[@maythompson6228]

I am 44 and I have EXTREAMLY dry skin. I have tried it with few different primer bases and nothing seems to make a difference. It simply does not look great on really dry skin. On the areas where my skin is more normal like my nose I wind up looking greasy and my dry areas just look horrible and patchy plus it makes my few small wrinkle lines look like canyons.

[@ImMalloryBrooke]

Thanks for sharing!! I’m glad I’m not alone. I really wish I could like it as much as the concealer. But between my experience and the comments I’m preeeeetty sure she’s just not a good match for dryer skin.

[@luciaayaso2260]

I know why she doesn't use other products during the review process but what about using the foundation the way she normally would? I always use a primer and powder and whatever else so I'd still like to that yeah?.

[@NicciA1982]

I drove an hr or so 1 way to a mail to get this. It was out of stock at my local mall. The lady talked me into going and getting this. It was such a let down for me. I have really dry skin year round.

[@cyndimiller216]

Dang, I'm so bummed it didn't work out for you! I have more oily/combo skin and love it, but maybe that's why? Ironically, I'm not a huge fan of their concealer LOL!

[@ImMalloryBrooke]

Lol, that is too funny! The concealer is still wowing me😂

[@AndreaBeenen]

So sad you didnt like this, but not everything works for everyone. I'm 54, very dry perimenopause skins situation going on and the Haus Labs has turned into my fountain of youth. on extra extra dry skin days I do wear it over RMS Beauty Primer. I used to swear by Estee Lauder Double Wear but over the last 18 month or so I can't wear it anymore :( it makes my skin look dryer, crepey and cakey (which seems to be the opposite effect of other women in my age range)

[@mx_heathermarie]

This didn't work for me either. I tried different primers, powders, sunscreens... it always broke apart and clung to my dryness. It also was hard to spread.😢

I tried and tried this foundation every which way recommended by KZbinrs, other comments, every way I thought would work for my dry skin. And when it did look good, it took so much prep work and did not wear well, so it just wasn’t worth it. If I have to work that hard to get a product to look good on me it’s not worth it. But I know lots of people love it including my daughter, but for me it just didnt work
