My Honest Review of the MERIT BEAUTY Minimalist Foundation and Concealer Stick | Clean Beauty Guide

[@BrittWitkin]

Thinking about trying Merit Beauty? Or have you already? This was a fun one. I was on the fence during the week or so of testing. What do you think? 💜

Thanks for another honest review! I pretty much came to the same conclusion...I liked it, but didn’t love it. I’m not much of a foundation person anyway...I have dry, skin and I hate looking too made-up so I’m usually not happy with how foundation looks on me. After trying it a few days, I returned it because I realized I much preferred the look and feel of my Ilia True Serum Concealer, and because the shade I chose was a bit too light. But I also bought their Brow 1980 pomade and the lip oil, both of which I really like.

I’m the same! I like a more natural, skin looks like skin finish 👌but to each their own right?! 💜 thanks for sharing oh and I got the brow gel. Giving it a shot now!

I did not like this foundation either. I felt similarly that it sat on top of my skin and sank into my smile lines after a short period of time. The stick also fell out of the tube when I first opened the product. :(

[@BrittWitkin]

Oh yeah....that’s not good wow. Just fell out huh? Yikes. Yep I tried but it’s been a tricky one for my skin. 💜

Lol I'm glad your skin is better. Mine is freaking out... I hope it's just weather changing or my face HATES masks... 🙄

Have you tried the merit lip oil? I wonder if it’s good or meh I’ve been hearing both

[@BrittWitkin]

I’ll be posting a roundup for the entire MERIT collection soon! Testing the lip oil so I’ll report back 💜👌

@@BrittWitkin thank you kindly also is the brush worth it ? I can’t help but to wonder 💭

Please review the new Lys Beauty foundation!

[@BrittWitkin]

It was in my cart and sold out! hahaha Waiting for the shade to come back 💜

[@puffsplus72]

@@BrittWitkin A bunch of the shades are back in now, just FYI. I noticed that.

[@BrittWitkin]

Thanks for the heads up! 💜

I love sticks but I'll probably pass on this one. If you calculate the price per ounce on the Merit, it's quite a bit more expensive than the Westman Atelier. Not to mention, the Well People stick is a good workhorse for a lot less money.

[@BrittWitkin]

Well said and thanks for sharing. The w3ll people has been a great option for me in the past too. 💜

[@puffsplus72]

I prefer this as a concealer, personally. Didn’t like it that much as a foundation.

[@BrittWitkin]

glad it's working for you in one way atleast 💜

[@puffsplus72]

@@BrittWitkin It's OK, not great. I use it for an undereye concealer and set it with the RMS un powder.

[@BrittWitkin]

Ah, gotcha. I’m going to keep playing around with the product and see if any other applications work. It was an investment so it’s ‘’make it work” time for moi hehe😁
