My HONEST opinion on the NEW No7 Stick Foundation

[@kathybrou1340]

I usually put smashbox primer oil under all my stick foundations. It helps smooth it on like butter. I also have dry skin. I also do a thin layer because my skin can’t take thick or full coverage. I love it.

[@foundationlady]

Hi Kathy! 🙂 I was hoping you might comment on this one, as I remembered you telling me about it, and I was hoping you might have some insight on how you make it work so well for you. And sure enough you did! Thanks so much for the tip on the primer oil!❤️ 🙏🏻 I'll definitely give it another shot using the primer oil first! So glad that you love this one! Hope you're having a great weekend! 🍭

Beautiful foundation and review, Jenny, thank you! I guess they can't all be perfect, though, or we'd never have the pleasure(?) of trying to find The One. Wishing you a wonderful weekend, ma'am, and please send my regards to the household... with snuggles for Normie, of course! 🥰

[@foundationlady]

So true! 🥰 we can't love 'em all! (although, hopefully my oily skin friend will like this one?) Normie sends big kisses! He's snuggling on his daddy's lap right now. We have a fire in the fireplace, and we put him in his blue "sweatsuit" because it's gotten SO cold outside.... which is the perfect combination for him to fall asleep, and snore the day away! 😂❤️)

I wore cream foundations for many years, even when I married in 1988. I was surprised at how this particular foundation made your skin look a bit dry. And it was obvious it wasn't spreading very easily. I wonder if you applied the foundation and let it sit on the skin for a few minutes to warm up, if that would help that issue? These days I am in love with liquid foundations, the thinner the better. But to be honest, it's been such a long time since I even wore makeup.....my tastes might have changed again! 😂 I will also admit that I'm a bit jealous (but truthfully HAPPY for you) that you get to try so many foundations each week. but you do such a fantastic job of showing all the details about each product, Jenny! You are a SUPERSTAR in my book!! Have a wonderful weekend my sweet friend!!❤‍🩹❤❤❤💋

[@foundationlady]

Thank you dear Patti for your kind thoughts! 🤗 That's a great idea to try letting it sit for a few minutes to warm it up. I'll have to give that a shot next time! It definitely wasn't my favorite cream foundation, but at the same time, I'm glad that they make some versions that are good for my normal/oily skinned friends too. 🥰 I can't win 'em all, but now that I have my channel I don't feel as bad when I try one that doesn't work for me, because at least I know I'm (hopefully) helping someone that has different needs than I do find one they like! I hope you're doing well lovely Patti! Big hugs!! 🤗🤗🤗

I tend to like keeping a cream foundation stick in my purse for touchups while I'm out - I live in Houston, so makeup often melts off my face, no matter what I do to stop it. I just picked up this No7 stick about a month and a half ago, so I haven't used it all that much yet, but what I do know is that the shade is wonderful for me, which is a minor miracle. I'm incredibly, incredibly pale with a neutral -to-SLIGHT-pink undertone (mostly due to a few patches of Adult-Onset Rosacea). It doesn't seem to last the longest on my combination skin, but not much does, so that doesn't bother me so much. I don't like spending too much money on my purse touch-up product, thanks to the aforementioned Houston weather (and the possibility of loss and/or theft - throwing money away is not my idea of a good time), and so far, this one seems to be hitting the spot. Honestly, my better find was the No7 Serum Concealer, thanks to its slightly darker/grayer undertone. It still matches my skin, while still managing not to be brightening, perfect for lower key days. Their pressed powder is also pretty excellent. I still wish I'd gotten to try their Foundation Drops, as I had a friend who raved about them. Ah, c'est la vie.

[@foundationlady]

Hi Terra! 🤗 First off, I TOTALLY understand what you mean by "Houston weather!" ❤️❤️❤️ My family members live both in/near there so I go several times a year (I grew up in San Antonio! ) Man , do I miss Texas and the amazing barbecue, sweet tea, breakfast tacos that melt in your mouth... wait... I just realized everything I mentioned was food related... I also miss my family! 😂) With all that said, I do not miss the 100+ temps or the humidity! In fact, I did a video on Carpe (the stuff you wear on your face to keep it from sweating) and I waited until I was going to visit my parents so that I could REALLY put it to the test! Second, I LOVE No 7 foundations for the specific reason you mentioned! The SHADES! They are one of the few foundation companies that "gets it" when it comes to pale undertones! So many companies offer formulas that are waaaaaay to peachy/pinky for fair skin tones, in my opinion. So I'm so glad that you found something that's good to throw in your purse for those quick touch ups! Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts with me! I really appreciate your comment. Hope you're having a great start to your week! 🌷

Love nr. 7! Indeed, great undertones. My pale face matches great with Calico. But I think I could make cool Vanilla work, too. Love their consistency in shades and shade names. I have not tried this stick, I'm not drawn to foundation sticks in general. But I do love this brand. Thanks for reminding me of them. I tend to forget them, because in my country you can only get this in the pharmacy, not in the drugstore.

[@foundationlady]

Hi Marielle! 🤗 Isn't No 7 wonderful? 🥰 I'm so glad they jumped across the pond so we could enjoy their products too! I'm SO grateful for an affordable foundation that doesn't have peachy (orange!) shades for us pale foundation wearers! Hope you're having a great weekend! ❤️

[@aleigha9141]

I really like No7 products ❤ I love the renew serum foundation (the one with the red writing on the pkg) and the pressed powder too. I also have the waterproof mascara and I like that as well. I think I’ll be skipping this one. My skin is dry as it is so I don’t think I would get along with it. I am loving the ulta beauty stick foundation right now though! Creamy and blendable. Sits beautifully on my more mature skin 😊 thank you for giving us the tea on this one ❤️ sending much love hugs and prayers your way 💖🙏 pets and treats for Norm ❤️ 🐾

[@foundationlady]

I love the Serum foundation toooooo! 🥰 One of my favorites!! ❤️ I haven't tried the mascara yet, but I do love their powder! It's just all-around such a fantastic brand! (I gotta get my hands on that ULTA stick though! I keep forgetting!) Hugs to you!! 🤗 And kisses from Normie! 🐶❤️

[@jenniferlyons4150]

My first stick foundation was Max Factor in the 90's. I used that for years then the Cover Girl Aquasmooth in the blue package. 😊 I have normal to dry skin. I have not used the No. 7 product.

[@foundationlady]

The Max Factor Pan stick in the blue tube???!!! Me tooooo! 🥰 I LOVE Covergirl AquaSmooth! I did a (short) video on that one a few months back, and then went out and bought two more of them because I don't ever want to be without it! 😂 ❤️

[@Jo2878]

This was such a helpful review Jenny, thank you 🥰 My skin is dry, so I'll skip this No.7 stick. As you mentioned the MUFE stick is good for drier skin, I'll look into that one. x

[@foundationlady]

I'm so glad to be of help! 🙂 Thank you for your comment! 🤗 I definitely think the MUFE is the better option for dry skin types... if you have trouble finding your shade in MUFE though, you might want to check out the Maybelline "Fit Me" stick (I believe they still carry it at Walmart last time I checked...) Or another really good cream formula is the CoverGirl Aqua Smoothers (in the blue elongated compact.... It's not a stick, but a great cream for dry skin!) Have. great week! ❤️💕❤️

I’m afraid that much rubbing would disturb my sunscreen, though. I bought a few Korean foundations to try. It takes me awhile to get to new ones, since I don’t wear it every day, so I’ll let you know in the future if I find a winner. 🤓 Edit: Love you wear two colors. I have two shades of the Missha Perfect Cover. I use #21 like bronzer. ☺️

[@foundationlady]

I love that you do the two color method too! 🥰 I love a good bronzer (and contour) but I think it looks so lovely (and more natural) to just use two shades from the same foundation formula! ❤️

Hi Belinda! 🤗 I just picked up the Fenty one at Ulta to shade match when I was there the other day, but then for some reason I put it back and went with another.

[@brynb1325]

Calico looks like it would match me perfectly, but I’m thinking my skin would be too dry for this product. Norm is the cutest

[@foundationlady]

Luckily No 7 is pretty consistent between their shades in their foundation lines, so if you feel like the stick would be too drying, they have a really great hydrating foundation I'd be happy to share with you if you're interested! But just speaking strictly of stick foundations, I find the Maybelline Fit Me stick foundation to be much more comfortable on my skin in general. OR... one of my subs just told me that she applies a hydrating primer oil first (Smashbox makes one as does Neutrogena) and she said it helps this stick glide on like butter! I haven't tried it just yet, but I thought I'd pass it along! ❤️

[@brynb1325]

@@foundationlady How does the no 7 hydrating foundation wear through the day? I have seen it but have never tried bc of course I can never color match but if it wears well and isn’t drying it may be worth the risk! I have been helping out at a preschool for special needs and don’t need much coverage but do want to make sure what I do wear doesn’t rub off on them when I get surprise hugs 🥰
