[@PrettierThan]

it always amazes me how these huge brands have professional photos of their shades and they are NEVER accurate 😩 im like whoooo approves these images??😂

[@TaraLynnbeauty]

RIGHT🙄🙄 I was worried about shade 9 when i ordered it, but never expected it to be THAT different in person. I don't care what anyone says, that beautiful model is NOT wearing shade 9 , that's my story and I'm sticking to it. Hahaha🤣 thanks for watching Peter😁 Hope you have a WONDERFUL weekend my friend 🌺⛱️🥳

[@tallisinwonderland4724]

I think Mr Magoo works for a lot of these cosmetic companies! It’s always so tricky on line to get the shade right

[@liat256]

Im wondering if the shade match tricks you to beleve they made enough darker shads for darker skin tones. Houerglass have a bad reputation on this topic...

[@TaraLynnbeauty]

@Liat Oren That is actually what I've been thinking. I really love this foundation. But these shades seem to be yet another deception from Hourglass to make you think they've made all the shades for all skin tones. I can, of course, only speak for shade 9, but there is absolutely no way that model is wearing it. I would bet money on it. I don't understand it, but Hourglass seems to be up to their old tricks. 🙄

[@theresaadams7074]

I wore it yesterday for 12+ hours. I think I only used 1 pump with a damp foundation brush and at first I wasn’t sure with the dry down, but as the day went on it was more beautiful 🤩

[@TaraLynnbeauty]

Ya, that's exactly what I thought. It got better and better throughout the day and I fell in love with it. When I first applied it, I thought "ok, it's pretty". But after my oils started coming through, it was absolutely beautiful 😁 So glad it worked so well for you, thank you for sharing your experience 💕💕💕 Have a wonderful weekend my friend 🌺

[@gabbysoto04]

I have not ever applied any foundation with a damp brush... What kind of foundations you use this technique with? I am intrigued about this I never thought of wetting my brush before foundation application

[@emilymakescoffee1741]

When you do a product review it would be great to see a comparison of the swatch on your skin vs the online image. That was really helpful to see how the online image compares to real life

[@TaraLynnbeauty]

Yes, I agree. I thought that footage was SO helpful.. I'm going to start remembering to include that in my reviews😁 Thanks for watching my friend 🌺🌺

[@greenbeauties]

I’m combo to oily and loving this foundation so far even though I just got it yesterday and worn it once for about 9-10 hours. I have to powder all foundations as I get oily in my t zone but it lasted all day and didn’t break on me. It looks beautiful on your skin 👍🏻🤩🌺

[@TaraLynnbeauty]

YAY🥳🥳 I'm so happy to hear it's working so well for you. I can see this working for a wide variety of skin types. I'm excited to wear it again😁 Thanks for sharing, hope you have a WONDERFUL weekend my friend 🌺🌺

[@greenbeauties]

@@TaraLynnbeauty yesss girl! At last a good foundation from Hourglass, very exciting to keep wearing it. Glad you liked it too 😊 have a lovely weekend and hugs from warm London 🤗❤️🌺

[@marianrios9847]

I’m obsessed with this foundation. Now even more thanks to your amazing tip, I have dry skin but not to bed, I decided to mix a bit of my chantecaille tinted moisturizer in glow with this foundation and OHHH MYYY even better! Thank you so much Taralyn🤍

[@solangewalker6187]

Awesome review! I agree that the shades are off. I normally wear a shade less than you and the shade 8.5 was not a good match and 9 was way too yellow for me. I went for the shade 10 and it was the perfect color so I grabbed it. Love the finish, it’s semi matte on me. I have normal to dry skin and this one doesn’t dry out my skin. Very happy with this one.

[@velvetorchid408]

I adore this foundation, so flattering to the skin, I’m 52 and have combination skin ❤

[@perceivedpal3888]

Wow……Love how professional and detailed this review was!! Thanks for all your work, I greatly appreciate it❣️❣️

[@TaraLynnbeauty]

Ahh, thank you so so much❤️❤️❤️ I appreciate your support 💕

[@farahmakeupandhair]

Will you be reviewing Lancome new foundation

[@flocali3270]

Looks absolutely gorgeous on you. I have very mature skin and post menopausal at that so I would bet it wouldn’t be great in my skin. You younger gals out there would all look beautiful in this new foundation.

[@TaraLynnbeauty]

This one I think could be tricky on more mature skin. I think it may settle into fine lines. I always love a nice Tinted Moisturizer on mature skin. 😁 Thanks for watching my friend 💕💕 hope you have a WONDERFUL weekend 🌺🌺🌺

[@Lucy-mf5gk]

Looking extra beautiful in this vid. You're right about the pictures being way off, I just went with KZbin reviewers. I'm shade 7.5 & would never have thought to choose that one - though 5 Probs could work aswell.

[@kathysorensen1021]

I bought shade 7.5 since it's fall and I'm not so tanned. 7 seemed super light to me.

[@lsaz4378]

Living in south florida there is nothing on Gods green earth that can hold up to the summer heat and humidity..also what’s your new skin routine your skin looks great

[@gbtink]

It may be just me but I feel that shade makes u look a little green. It’s a beautiful finish tho, looks like a great fall/winter foundation!

[@janicecroissiert9116]

I thought so too

[@joycedelapena]

Just got this and love the finish/blurring effect on my oily/normal skin! For those looking to shade match, I usually shade-twin with Tara and got shade 11. It's a good summer match for me but I'd definitely need something lighter in the winter. For a supposedly neutral shade, 11 still runs warm enough for me. The online pictures are so unhelpful for these shades!

[@rashasarandah1695]

Would love a skincare update. I have similar skin concerns and would like to know what products have been helping you

[@michellemoody4541]

Estee Lauded double wear can!! Ive wore it all day in the Louisiana summer heat and it didn’t budge! I dont use it anymore cuz it settles down in my pores and makes them even more emphasized unfortunately!

[@carolchadwick3580]

Hi Tara, I went to Sephora and received three sample shades of 8, 9 and 10. My shade is 9. I love it and purchased the foundation. ❤️

[@elladav1663]

Thank you! Please share your new skin routine, your skin looks great.

[@TaraLynnbeauty]

I'll be sharing it in an upcoming video😁 it will be going up on Monday. It's a full face of Chantecaille ❤️

[@Rebeccabeautyandmakeup]

I loved your review!!! I agree with EVERYTHING you said😊 We are usually the same or similar shade in foundations (I’m dry to normal) and I got this in shade 10. I wore it yesterday and it wore beautifully but the undertone of 10 is a bit toooooo warm for me. You told me in your community center that you ordered 7, I got nervous and ordered 7 also for maybe winter but the shades are EXTREMELY DIFFICULT to choose from, and I already know I’ll have to change it to 8 maybe for winter. But it’s sucks because they use the same description for multiple foundations

[@TaraLynnbeauty]

Yes .. AGREED. this foundation is wonky. I thought about returning shade 7 and getting shade 10. Is it yellow or golden? Seems like yellow seems to be what they're using for their warm tones😳 I don't mind a little yellow, but this is on another level. Haha. I absolutely LOOOVE the foundation and I'm hoping I can find a tad darker of a shade and use this one in the winter. 🤷‍♀️

[@Rebeccabeautyandmakeup]

@@TaraLynnbeauty I honestly think you might prefer one that is described as neutral. 10 has good depth as a shade but the undertone is not golden. Like I said it’s much more yellow than than expected. You might prefer 10.5 or 11 since they are both neutral, and everyone is claiming the neutrals run more warm, maybe it’s a bit less yellow than the “warm shades”. Keep us posted if you end up finding a better match ☺️ it sucks cause I like the foundation but the shades are all so weird. What I do is I mix it with NYX color corrector in green to calm down some of the yellow. It doesn’t change the formula BUT it alters the shade. I can’t wait to see your review on the Lancôme foundation, I also got the 400w.

[@TaraLynnbeauty]

@Rebecca Beauty and Makeup Yes, I just got a few of those mixers from LA Girl and I need to try that. The yellow is definitely strong. 😳 Thanks for all the tips, really appreciate it 👍 ❤️ Have a great weekend ⛱️🥳🌺

[@Rebeccabeautyandmakeup]

@@TaraLynnbeauty I meant to say it’s more yellow leaning orange 🍊 lol 😂. I hope you enjoy your weekend as well ❤️

[@noaamouyal1395]

I'm pretty obsessed with the Nars Light Reflecting Foundation at the moment, but I'm already thinking about what I want to get when this one runs out. I'm debating between the Armani Luminous Silk, Pat McGrath and Chanel 1. Now I may have to add Hourglass to that list of ones to chose from!

[@vannasgran6176]

Everyone seems to really enjoy the Armani Luminous silk. I have had that on my wish list for a while. I have not tried the Nars light reflecting one. So many foundations.

[@vickiebonbeauty1395]

I've purchased mine...hopefully it will be the right color. I'm crossing my fingers. Thank you for the review. You are the third person I've watched that has tested this foundation. And you're the third person to give it 5 🌟!

[@carolyncintron-williams546]

Foundation and Florida humidity 😫. I have found the best support to deal with humidity is a thin layer of Make Up Forever shine control step 1 primer. Anything that claims to have a dewy finish I won't even look at it will not last. Matte Foundation on me looks dewy after 10 minutes outside.🤪

[@kimbaker4352]

The hourglass translucent powder is the only powder I wear, it’s the best for mature skin hands down and I have super dry skin. I also have switched over to only tinted moisturizers like the one from NARS and bare minerals. As much as I would love to try this foundation, when I hear things like leading towards matte or kinda sets down to a powder finish with no tackiness, I already want to run. It does look like a nice foundation though, good review, thanks.

[@TaraLynnbeauty]

I totally understand and agree. I think Tinted Moisturizers look best on mature skin😁 I LOVE the powder, it's just the best and that packaging is the real deal😁 Thanks for watching my friend, hope you have a WONDERFUL weekend 🌺💕

[@janethart692]

I'm trying to get on the tinted moisturizer bandwagon, as I have mature skin, but my dilemma is they don't really cover age spots/hyperpigmentation on me. What to do! :)

[@kimbaker4352]

@JanetHart, I totally agree when it comes to dark spots, what I like to do is after I use my tinted moisturizer add another foundation with more coverage like the L’Oréal infallible 24hr freshwear and mix a tiny amount with the tinted moisturizer and go over those spot to cover them, it works beautifully, good luck.

[@Nae9211]

[@vannasgran6176]

[@doriking9756]

Shoot! So by description I should have gotten 5, but because the pictures looked so dark I got a 3. I can hopefully make that work. I am weird that since I don’t go out to tan anymore, (sheer laziness so I don’t want to deal with the drive, etc) I am a light neutral usually but my neck is lighter, I also have a very slight olive undertone. It’s hard to get exact anyway. I can’t wait to try it though. Thanks for the review!

[@RachASMR]

I got a medium cool and it was SO dark and super warm. So shades are very off.

[@chrissymoss514]

@Dori King As you said your neck is lighter than your face and that foundations are matched to our necks, you might be ok . I too have olive undertones, I mix a touch of green to almost all my foundations to achieve the correct tone. xxx

Are you still going to review the Lancome one? I'm Your exact shade match and I'm waiting on your review before I order :)

[@TaraLynnbeauty]

Yes, I am . I bought shade 400W and it's a little dark for me. I need a lighter shade😁 But, so far I like it, but not loving it like I loved this one from HG. But I'll put that review up on Tues😁😁

[@r.c.7779]

@@TaraLynnbeauty what are the differences that makes you like the HG better? Does if last longer?

[@TaraLynnbeauty]

@R.C. it does last longer, but for me, the way this HG Foundation glows on the skin, and blurs the pores, it is beautiful. The Lancome is a nice Foundation, but for me personally, I pick the HG over it. But, those who have dry skin will probably do better with the Lancome than the HG 😁

[@icekitty15]

Hi Tara, I have to say that I did love how pretty your skin looked with that foundation. I also got the Good Vides dress from Amazon. I did get it in a olive green. But I have to get it hemmed up in the front of the dress cause my butt brings up the back so it’s good in the back. I can’t wait to wear it. It’s so pretty. Thanks for recommending it Tara.

Holy Pigment! WOW 😯 I just picked this up today and I played around with it when I got home…. well let me tell you I put too much on, should have watched your review first, and and you are right it gets Cakey very fast. A tiny bit goes a long way and I also found if I if a beauty blender is used, it made it very patchy, definitely need to use a brush with this one! Once I got it all figured out it does look very beautiful on my skin.

[@TaraLynnbeauty]

Yes, I completely agree about the sponge. It doesn't look right with a sponge. Brush is definitely the way to go😁 It takes a minute to figure it out, trial and error, but if applied right, it's absolutely beautiful ❤️ Glad you got it figured out, thanks for stopping by and sharing your experience, I know it's so so helpful 😁 Have a great weekend 🎉🎉

What a great review Tara! I ALWAYS wait to see your review, Stephanie from Babsbeauty and Samantha March’s review on makeup and especially foundation reviews before I purchase. You and Stephanie have said the exact same thing about how different the shades are compared to the shades they show online. It’s a gorgeous foundation and I love 💗 the way it looks on you! I just cannot figure out what shade to purchase. I’m a medium with a neutral undertone. I thought shade 7 or shade 7.5 would be my perfect shade but after seeing shade 7 it’s so light!! The closest Sephora is 2 1/2 hours away. If anyone has a medium skin tone with a neutral undertone could you please share what shade you purchased! Love you Tara you look so gorgeous ❤️

[@TaraLynnbeauty]

I'm thinking about returning shade 7 and getting shade 10, or 10.5. Even though 10.5 is a neutral Undertone, I was hoping it would have less yellow that the warm shades do. But, I would stay in the 9's or 10's if I were you. This foundation runs pretty light. I hate that the images are SO OFF, definitely makes it extremely difficult. It's already hard buying shades through images online, but when they're wrong, it makes it even more difficult 😳🙄 I would definitely buy in the 9-10 range if I were you😁❤️ Hope that helps🙏 And thank you for watching, I also love the channels you mentioned, they are some amazing content creators💕💕💕

This is very informative. Saying it’s better to layer slowly and lightly is the first time I’ve heard anyone say that. I wish I could see a ranking of all the new ones - the only new one I got a sample of is NARS, and it emphasizes my mouth wrinkles and pores, in the area you pointed out - I’m the oddball that doesn’t love that one. I actually prefer L’Oréal serum with the dropper over the NARS. Maybe I tried with and without a primer, fingers, brush, sponge, everything. How does this one compare so I can know to even bother? Thanks!! 😊

[@TaraLynnbeauty]

I'm so glad it was helpful 😁❤️ I actually don't like the Nars Light Reflecting Foundation (I believe that is the one you're referring to) it emphasizes all my wrinkles and I feel like it's a little too mask like for me. I did a full review on it, you can search Tara Lynn Nars Light Reflecting and it will come up😁 I recommend getting a sample of this one before purchasing, if possible. It's a tricky one to apply, but absolutely beautiful if applied right❤️ Testing the new Makeup By Mario right now, and so far so good😁

I'm really glad you mentioned Florida & humidity!! There are so many people who struggle with this overbearing environment!! 🥵 It's not about what you like but what will keep you from looking sweaty & melting off!! 😝 I was waiting for Morgan Turner to experience this situation and she has 🤣 But since we're dealing with extreme heat in all states, I would love to see a video focused specifically on makeup for HEAT 🌞🔥 Thanks for testing this foundation, we normally have the same taste but I'm hesitant about this one cause I'm dry... 🤍

[@TaraLynnbeauty]

Haha. I hear ya. During the month i was there, I was in and out of the heat when I wore makeup in Florida. The days when I was in the heat all day, I wasn't wearing makeup, just reapplying Sunscreen every hour because I was at the beach or the pool. I miss the humidity, my skin just loves it🤣 But, I totally understand the struggle is real when it comes to heat and the humidity with wearing makeup. If we were going somewhere and i was going to be outside in the heat / humidity for several hours, i wore the Dior Airflash Foundation. It's the only Foundation that didn't melt from my face. I also had a battery operated fan to help keep my face from Melting. Hehe. But, I can see this Foundation working great in the heat. It has that dry down, similar to the Airflash. But, if you do have dry skin, I don't think this will be the one for you. And, having dry skin, I'm glad you live in a humid climate. My skin gets dry in the winter here in Utah, but as I'm aging, that's changing. My face isn't as dry, but my body all year round feels like it's a dry desert and i hate it. Our goal is to live in Florida half the year and Utah half the year. I'm praying we get to do that very soon🙏😁❤️

Tara, thank you so much for such a thorough review. As always!!!! Appreciate the shade info and comparisons. I’m wondering how it would hold up in the Florida's humidity 😙😙🧐🧐

[@TaraLynnbeauty]

I totally forgot to give my thoughts on that🤪 I think it will hold up in and out of humidity, but I don't think it would last all day. It definitely holds up well throughout the day, I mean, it didn't budge on me at all. But, I am always skeptical when Foundations claim to be humidity or sweat resistant. It's definitely not resistant, but it's a nice one to wear and I would definitely wear it in the humidity over others. Hope that helps❤️❤️❤️

[@jklovesmaui]

Do you prefer this new Hourglass foundation over the NARS light reflection foundation (their one with the skin care ingredients in it)?

[@TaraLynnbeauty]

Yes, for a few reasons. But, the Nars Light Reflecting never looked that great on me, i still prefer the Sheer glow . But, I never noticed the light reflecting properties in the Nars, not like I noticed in this one from HG. This one from HG is a little more Matte than the Nars , but I still like it over the Nars 😁💕

[@locks4u2c]

This was a great review. I will have to agree that the shades are very off! I originally had 13 based on the model and when I put it on it way way too light. They really need to do a better job with the models because it is a terrible comparison with the shades. However, I end up going with the 13.5 and it works great but it is nothing like the picture. I originally skipped it because the model had a much deeper skin tone than myself. Hoped Hourglass would will take this under consideration but other than that, it is a beautiful foundation.

[@marina56]

I’m confused. Wouldn’t a swatch against white paper look different than against darker skin. If I swatch foundation on my hands vs my wrist it’s a totally different colour.

Always thank you for another great in-depth detail review. I’m not sure if I’m going to buy this one I’m a little more on the normal/dryer side. I would say normal to dry. Maybea drop of oil might help but I honestly have to wait for sales when I pick up my luxury items

Thank you so much my sweet friend❤️❤️ i always appreciate your support 🙏 Thank you💋💋💋

[@RachASMR]

Yes. Gorgeous foundation but the shades ughhhh. I got a MEDIUM cool… it is WARM and IT is dark. I had to buy a second and hope to gawwwwd it will work.

[@mollzz]

Ughhh I’m worried now that the reviews are coming out… I’m starting to think I shoulda got the absolute lightest shade

[@TaraLynnbeauty]

The shades are wonky. I mean, I wouldn't be surprised, HG is known for their shady images. Lol. But, there is no damn way the beautiful model was wearing shade 9. NO WAY. She's at least 3-4 darker than I am (i only wish I had that gorgeous complexion lol) The images are definitely deceptive. Sorry you are having issues with that as well. I think that will be the biggest complaint on this foundation overall😳 Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts on it Rach. 💕💕💕💕 Hope you're well my friend💋

Not only are the pictures of shades way off ..the descriptions were off and the shade finder suggested a shade that was way too light.. I went with 10.5 thinking it might be too dark but it was actually too light and yellowish (for my summer shade) So frustrating 😤

[@TaraLynnbeauty]

I swear there is ABSOLUTELY NO WAY that beautiful model was wearing shade 9. ABSOLUTELY NO WAY. I have a tan on my body and in the Swatches it's light on my arm. It matches my face pretty close as far as the shade depth and I don't tan my face. They are definitely deceptive on the shades, and images which HG is known for that🤪

[@TaraLynnbeauty]

P.S. Does that 10.5 have a yellow undertone? I was thinking about returning shade 7 and getting either 10 or 10.5 but, I wondered if the neutral 10.5 is still yellow. 🤔

[@fabianas428]

@@TaraLynnbeauty yes.. I do think it's yellow.. when I compare it to my lys neutral shade it is definitely more yellow leaning undertone

[@TaraLynnbeauty]

@@fabianas428 Thank you so much for that insight😁💋

Thank you so much Tara Lynn xxx

Been waiting for your opinion on this!!!

[@prettyperfeckt2239]

Hi babes I think you should try shade 7 it’s giving a sun kissed look can we see if shade 7 is really as light as it looks

[@DB-ed6si]

7 will be too light!

[@akellerhouse83]

I keep staring at your earrings! Where did they come from?

[@estherj3102]

Me too😁

[@bluemoon5411]

Great thorough review ...thank you

[@TheLauren2229]

I think this shade looks wonderful on you.

[@tifc6371]

Cant wait for this to hit australia!!

[@1989Channy]

Looking at swatches and your description, you mention the 9 is quite yellow, I use Lisa Eldridge 16 or 19 in your swatch it looks pretty close to 19 LE, would this 9 shadesuit olive skin? I find the Nars LR in Stromboli too orange yellow on me, so is the HG that yellow? As I find that is less olive if that helps 😘😘

[@TaraLynnbeauty]

The shade 9 is quite yellow , I am thinking about buying a neutral shade. But, they are definitely more yellow leaning which is a bummer🥺

[@1989Channy]

@@TaraLynnbeauty it’s so difficult, especially with nowhere for me to swatch them. Looking at other vids anything darker than 9 leans kinda orange :( I think if the 9 in HG is less yellow than Stromboli in LR It’ll be okay x

[@mariaalejandratorressantel5236]

Looks spectacular!

🥰 Very. pretty and helpful video, thank you for all the work.. love from Sweden

[@xine1996]

Thanks for your review. I really expected a more lightweight formula and more glow, when I saw the launch. Kind of disappointed. So I'm going to stay away from that (I have dry skin).

[@TaraLynnbeauty]

Yes, I think that's definitely a little deceptive in the description. It's a glowy product because of the Ambient properties, but it's definitely not a glowy formula. I wouldn't recommend this for dry skin. Maybe as a mixer , but not alone. I can see this clinging to dry patches. 😁 I'm glad the review was helpful, thanks for watching my friend, hope you have a WONDERFUL weekend 🌺

[@xine1996]

@@TaraLynnbeauty thank you 😊 have a wonderful weekend too 🤗🤗

Is it comparable to Shiseido synchro skin matte version?

Thank you for the swatches. 8:15 Thats crazy.

[@omayranegron2239]

With what do you set it with?

[@CareyXO]

I am so frustrated with the pictures online of this foundation. They are nowhere near similar. It is so frustrating. I ordered 11.5 and it’s orange and looks nothing like the photos. I don’t believe it’s in store yet so I’m not sure what shade to exchange for. I’m annoyed.

[@RachASMR]

Same. Shade I got is so off

[@nataliemadsen8369]

I ALWAYS believe what you say, lady with the pretty eyes. 😘😘
