NEW HOLY GRAIL FOUNDATION!? ELF CAMO CC CREAM REVIEW & WEAR TEST!! I AM SHOCKED!

[@Patti-1962]

Nikkia, I have a suggestion. Maybe you should only use your powder on one side of your face, and maybe an Elf powder on the other? I often feel like your powder is the real winner as it can make most foundations work beautifully!❤️❤️ I have mature skin and haven't see the best reviews for my kind of skin, so I haven't purchased this yet. Maybe I should give it a try??? I'm so glad it worked well for YOU!!😘❤️

[@nikkiajoy]

Thanks for the suggestion Patti! That really is a great idea! It would be so interesting to see the difference at the end of the day too🙈🥰

[@Kristy-x2z]

I would be interested in seeing the results of that as well

[@kathleencorcoran9684]

Oh gosh I had the same thought about going 1/2 powder-free!! 💗

[@eianlis]

Yesss good idea !

[@jeaniecreswell8708]

I have mature skin, I am dry and have minimal wrinkles and creases. I literally LOVE this foundation. It is the BEST in my opinion. I use it everyday. I go to work at 6am and return home about 6pm and I am the coordinator at a hospital. I am constantly moving and sweating and busy with the patients and physicians. But my elf camo foundation wears beautifully. I adore this stuff. It’s literally perfect for SKIN.

[@NJ-cl6be]

Your powder is the helping one. It makes all makeup perfect

[@nikkiajoy]

Aww you’re amazing Nora! I have to say I do agree🙈🥰

[@donnajohnson1792]

I agree! Nikkia can make any foundation beautiful!💜

[@amybrandt7376]

I just bought it and i love it. !

[@14gamerz21]

Ive been wearing this daily for about 4 weeks, its become my ride or die. I have Normal/Dry skin and wear shade Fair 120N. The shade range can be tough for cooler skin tones but i make it work. Ive paired it with a number of different primers and it works great with them all. I recently purchased NJC Velvet Finishing powder and it took the look of this foundation to the next level! Love you Nikkia, cant wait for you next product releases 😍❤

[@erinb4596]

Would love an updated foundation favorites from you. Perhaps a lighter/ tinted moisturizer version, and then a medium to buildable full coverage version obviously for the oily skin girls!

[@ericam22]

I've gone back and worth with whether to buy this or not. I already have the It Cosmetics Matte CC cream, so I'm wondering if I need the Elf one as well. I'd love to see you do a side by side comparison to see which one is the best.

[@dawnr9158]

I have the It illuminating cc cream. I would be curious about the skin care benefits with ELF, since that is what IT Cosmetics is all about.

[@florcreciente1086]

elf is healthier .it cosmetic carries many bad ingredients for skin

[@GenXfrom75]

I've used it for a year! I use light 240 W. I finished my light 240 N and replaced it with the warm. I think that looks better. I use it every single day. I love that it's SPF 30, as well.

[@jennagage5148]

i’m oily like you too but this melts off me within 5-6hrs AND that’s while using your powder! it’s beautiful for the first couple hours but downhill after that.

[@shondadorf432]

This looks so good on you. I’ve been wearing this for about a month now. My results are the same as yours. I have oily skin & large pores. This controls the oil & blurs the pores. Definitely recommend others give it a try.

[@karlamendoza4260]

Looks so good! I was skeptical. Also a very oily skin type. Would like to see it in hotter months.

[@clareripsher1461]

I can’t wait for your yearly Favourites. How are you going to choose with so many great foundation reviews. And how are you going to separate them? Natural- light weight winners and then fuller coverage winners? Sooooo many choices

[@nikkiajoy]

It is definitely going to be a hard choice this year! I think that’s a great idea to split it up! Maybe we can do best 5 natural foundations and best full coverage foundations for the year?🥰

[@clareripsher1461]

@@nikkiajoy yes please! I love having my natural- look days and then my fuller coverage days. Also, an excuse to have twice as much make up 😂

[@kat0726]

I just ordered your finishing powder & perfecting sponge and I'm so excited to try it out, because other powders seem to set into my lines. How should I use the powder, because it states it can be used before foundation & after, so how exactly do you use the powder & should I use all over? Sorry I'm asking so many questions, but I want to make sure I use correctly. Other powders make my face look dried out, but I read nothing but great reviews on your powder, so I feel like a kid on Christmas waiting for the arrival of the newest & best toy on the market. Lol

[@anotherjuan]

Please also review the Catrice True Skin Hydrating Foundation, Nikkia. It's getting some hype and I wanna know if it's any good on oily skin. Thanks luv 💖

[@leighannsbeautifullife]

I use it and love it! I work in the hospital and wear a mask for 12 hours and it works well on oily skin. It dries down to like a semi matte finish and I just top it with my new Nikkia Joy finishing powder with a puff!

[@lavayuki]

I really like this foundation, especially that it has SPF in it plus skincare without fragrance or essential oils like the IT cosmetics one

[@Miaow211]

This is why I bought it. I love the it cosmetics one, but it has cinnamaldehyde and citrus oils in it ):

[@anb3362]

Another hit from elf!!! Love love love this amazing, cruelty free brand! Thank you for another great review, Nikkia❣ Those lashes are next on my list to try, and you're setting powder. Appreciate you girl!💕

UM that 5 hour result is insaneeeeee. EDIT. Just finally finished watching lol and the 12 hour mark?? What in the actual heck! Incredible. You are stunning as usual. And I gotta say, I don't think it would be the same without your powder. It is my holy grail. Oh and PS, I use your oil everyday. I get so many compliments!

[@keecc3243]

I’m a bit late to the party lol but completely understand your reaction having oily skin myself 😂 I bought this a while ago and it was the wrong shade and I rubbed it in with my fingers so wasn’t a fan, I tried it again last week with supergoop glow screen as a base and used a beauty blender..OMG game changer lol I honestly can’t believe how good it is I could kick myself for not using it properly before!! I need a slightly lighter shade but the mattifying properties are just crazy I don’t even have to powder during the day I’ve never had that with ANYTHING!? Crazy, amazing product ❤️ I use ELF beautifully bare sheer powder on top btw

[@nikkiajoy]

Oh babe I’m so happy you love it!!! It’s such a great feeling when you are just so happy with a product that works 😍♥️

[@Delphgirl]

I have both the elf cc camo foundation and the it cc foundation and I would choose the elf one over the it cc foundation every time I love it ‼️ I also got the elf camp powder foundation at the same time and I love it too it works GREAT if you guys haven’t tried it I would suggest you try it it’s quick and easy and if your in a hurry it is perfect and even if your not in a hurry you can wear this out it works for that too it’s easy and simple and can be touched up at any time‼️ EDIT: Also I wear the elf putty primer (NOT UNDER THIS FOUNDATION BECAUSE IT’S NOT NEEDED NOR DO I WEAR IT UNDER THE ELF POWDER FOUNDATION BECAUSE IT’S NOT NEEDED‼️ But under any other foundation it helps my skin not sink into any fine lines,wrinkles or pores it works excellent too and I would recommend it for sure ‼️

[@kathleencorcoran9684]

Love this!! Looks absolutely flawless on you 🤩🤩 Did you use an elf concealer over the top in the under eye area? I agree with a previous comment that the magic finish is from your NJC Velvet powder!! I’m curious if you had done a half-face unset how they would’ve compared after 9 hours 🧐 You’re fabulous, thank you for your reviews!! 💖

[@nikkiajoy]

Aww thanks so much lovely! So glad you enjoyed! I used the Nars creamy concealer. I agree it would be a great idea to test without my powder because it’s pretty magic stuff🙈🥰❤️

[@Tino5887]

I'm very oily and no matter what I do, make up always cakes on me especially where my glasses sit. I've tried the elf cc cream and it caked on me too. Guess I'll have to try again with different primers. Thank you for your review, I do find your oily skin reviews are so much more true than others xxx
