I miss her too 😢

[@goow]

I was so happy to see that Sydney Grace still sells her palette and donates the proceeds to her family.

[@theoriginalmrs.d538]

I just watched one of her videos a few weeks ago and mentioned her to my daughter today! RIP Mel

[@rachelg315]

I’m so glad you did a review on this. I’ve been waiting to pull the trigger and now, I just bought it. Thanks!

[@lauraw83]

I love this foundation! I found that using the sponge provided and patting it on was the best finish for me. It lasted all day too. I LOVE your bakuchiol cream as a primer too! So happy I tried it! 😍

[@catherinebell122]

Learn much on the jury duty experience!

[@goow]

I learned SO much even though the cases I got on didn't go all the way to conclusion. Fascinating stuff.

[@valeriek7862]

Would love to see more powder foundation reviews 🤩

[@sarahstroud6021]

I love your bachucial cream so much! I have bought it twice and will keep buying more!

[@susanr4663]

Charlie!!!! Its so nice to meet you !!! 2 kitties today. They are so cute. My soul is happy. Keep us posted

[@heatheru3089]

So good to know! I am now tempted to try this. Jury duty is a very cool experience; you'll learn so much!

[@themerz6982]

I love this foundation. Got such a good shade! Great for spot concealing and inner corner of my eye. I was shocked as well. Thanks for review. I was interested how a dry skin girly would like.

[@9catsandcraftsticks]

Aww, Mel… I think I’m going to watch a few of her videos… Your makeup looks fantastic!!!

[@amydaniels6442]

I ordered her Tiny Marvels palette after she passed but can’t bring myself to use it or even swatch it! I’m also glad the proceeds still go to her family! PS) are you no longer liking the FB Heatwave Bronzer? My lid broke and I’m having to use a rubber band to keep it on! 🤪

[@swedishmake-upgeek5650]

I rarely use mine, because it breaks my heart…

[@karlaharvey2623]

Wow Shelly, I’ve been wanting to try a Powder Foundation, but with dry, dehydrated skin as well, I felt too that there is no way they would work for me. Nowwww, guess I’m going to have to try this one. It really looked so pretty and blurring via camera. Would you or have you tried it without a primer? Loved your eyeshadow look as always. 😊. My under eyes are so so dry and dehydrated, but I love setting my concealer with DOLL10 Pink Setting Powder. I still would love for you to review the DOLL10 Reishi foundation and oh my heart; their New Reishi Concealer is Gorgeous. Does not settle into my wrinkles and crinkles. It’s amazing. Thank you Shelly.

[@jeng2336]

I have been waiting for this one!! Thank you! 🤲 Heading back to my Ulta cart. 😅

[@barbarapauley3053]

Charlie’s eyes are beautiful! Thanks for sharing this review. Will you please review the Patrick Ta foundation?

[@marionallen2222]

I love it!!!! Just with my new Tarte Creaseless Creamy concealer or tower 28! 🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍

[@dorothyevans3864]

Wow - that looks good! Though, have to say, your skin is looking good right now anyway.

[@dawnyork6992]

I will have to order this. I have been using the Charlotte Tillbury powder to reduce my pores. I am excited to see if this does the job for a little more coverage over my my Color Science SPF. It might be a great foundation/ powder for my traveling. Pet the kitties for me.

[@sierra_duval]

Looks nice on you your makeup is Beautiful you look so pretty

[@goodshepard00]

I love the smoothing and blurring of your pores. I think I need more coverage than the ND powder foundation offers.

[@ChrissieSM]

Please could you review the Dior stick foundation.

[@goodshepard00]

Thanks for the video!

[@neneg.4264]

Hi Shelly! 🙋‍♀️ hello Ziva! hello Charlie! they're so cute 😻... the foundation looks good on you, I'm not sure my dry skin would like it, or maybe applied lightly as a setting powder 🤔 I might give it a try down the road 😉 thnx for the review! ... hugzzz 💜

[@lisak.126]

I've always had oily skin but it seems to actually be getting more oily as I age (49 too). Like, what the heck? 😩 Powder foundation is now my friend as my oils turn most liquid foundations into a goopy mess. Current favorite is Mac Studio Fix, it's very skin-like.

[@swedishmake-upgeek5650]

Kitty!😍 Edit: kitties! 😍😍And I felt the line ”it’s very Monday” in my soul ❤

[@ChrissieSM]

Hi Shelly! Does this powder contain talc? I must say, it looks very good on you.

[@lisabafundo4355]

Wow, that IS very smoothing. Beautiful. I'm impressed. I live in the tropics, and powder is the way I go only in the very humid summer months..I've only ever used L'Oréal true match powder foundation. I'm going to have to crack my wallet open wider for this beauty😅

[@sfkat]

I'm tempted by this. I also have dry skin. Would you consider doing a review on the Lancôme Teint Idôle Ultra Wear Foundation Stick? I see you did a review on it 7 years ago, but they've reformulated it. Also the new DIOR Forever Skin Perfect Foundation Stick that I've heard raves about. Thanks

[@joylewullis9538]

I only started watching your video and just have to say, you are so brave to try this foundation ha ha I am very dry and dehydrated also. Would not even consider it. But I’m hoping it’s good. I would love to just slap on a powder foundation and go in the morning. My fingers are crossed

[@joylewullis9538]

You looking very lovely in this. I was also thinking the same thing. How would it powder over a liquid foundation. Hi Charlie! I thought that was Ziva. Oops. She’s a doll also

[@CatKim2]

Wow, is that smooth- with or witout a full face of makeup. It was so nice to see Charlie- she is beautiful. It looks like she has been taking lessons in makeup from Ziva. Are you interested in checking out Patrick Ta's new foundation?

[@sarahstroud6021]

I have a cat named Charlie!

[@sfkat]

Just curious...Does Ziva sleep as close to your face as possible at night? Mine wakes me up in the AM with pats if it's past breakfast time!...no sleeping in allowed.

[@lisak7997]

❤❤❤

[@mettemather4931]

Thank to you and 😘😘😘😘😘😘 to 😽😽♥♥♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

[@Sassyglbeauty]

I was so shocked when she died. Still so sad!
