[@BeautyDaughtMom]

The thing to remember about alcohol is that not all alcohols are created equally and not all are drying. I’ve talked about the “bad” alcohols versus “good” on my channel. This type of alcohol is not only (usually) added to help dry down, but more specifically, it’s used to bind the products to the skin. That’s likely what you’re feeling is the binding, not so much the drying. There are many skin care products that contain alcohol, as well, for this exact reason - alcohol pulls the ingredients deeper into the skin. Again, I just want to stress that simply because a product contains alcohol is not necessarily a bad thing - it completely depends on the type of alcohol (some are very damaging) and I’ve talked about which are damaging on my channel, specifically in the YSL All Hours video.. I have extremely dry, mature skin, FYI. Much love, Shelbie =)❤️

[@kathrynherrold8933]

BeautyDaughtMom thank you. Good explanation

[@ashleygable4933]

The Ysl all hours has the bad alcohol in it? Is it denatured alcohol? I wonder which one this one has?

[@BeautyDaughtMom]

Ashley Gable Yes, Denatured Alcohol is BAD for your skin. Very damaging. And this one has just plain Alcohol, which is frequently used not only for drying time, but in my experience, most often it is used as a binder; to hold the ingredients together and help bind them to your skin. That is why you will frequently see Alcohol in skin care - it works to pull the ingredients into the deeper layers of this skin. Because this foundation has several forms of silicones in it that have a small molecular size, it would be my guess that’s why alcohol is in this formula and so high on the ingredients list - a binder. But, I’m not a cosmetic chemist...just a gal who loves makeup and has been using and researching it for years. But I always have much to learn. LOL! I do have several videos on my channel where I talk about Denatured Alcohol, as well as the different types of alcohol (including the YSL video I mentioned). If you’re interested, feel free to check them out! I haven’t been on my channel for a few months, as I had a family emergency, but will be returning next week...hopefully! I Hope that helps! Much love, Shelbie =)❤️💜

[@glowwithola5627]

THANK YOU!!! I really like this foundation and my skin is dry, but then I don’t mind some alcohol in some products 🤷🏿‍♂️

[@ashleygable4933]

@@BeautyDaughtMomI'm really into ingredients and what not go use on my face too. I'll check your channel out 😊. I was just worried if it said just straight alcohol on a ingredient it meant denatured alcohol or a bad one. I know when it's a fatty alcohol in ingredients it always species which one it is.

[@literallyheather]

[@virginiaduncan8219]

I love your honesty and descriptions!!! I have very dry skin as well, and will be curious to see your follow up using the whole system.....thank you for your thorough and honest reviews!!!!

[@paofacu]

You’re amazing for doing this for us! Excited to see the whole system to see if the foundation sandwiched between the primer and powder will not feel so dry. THANK YOU!!❤️❤️❤️

[@_11520]

Wow! You are so early! I’m so excited to see your review and thoughts. I also really appreciate your arm swatches on those light shades. Thank you, Michele!!

[@TheMicheleWang]

Thank you so much, smhy!!

[@remypabila1862]

Thank you Michele for the review. I really appreciate your effort for your channel and for your followers. Your the best. ❤️

[@jrmetmoi]

I love it. I stan Pat's foundation and concealer line! Best range of shades AND undertones in foundations and concealers in the market - Pat even remembered to represent olive undertones for light skin dark skin which is almost unheard of

[@ny-lw7mm]

Thank you for you're honesty. This is exactly why I enjoy watching you're videos & I always learn something new. If I want to really know about a product I look you up first.

[@connier.8775]

From where I’m sitting, the foundation evened your skin out and it made it look gorgeous! As usual, your overall look was so polished and classy!

[@evedavis5718]

It looks really pretty , glad that you always fully inform your followers

[@ModernVintage31]

Dang, what a bummer but I SO appreciate your honesty. I didn’t buy this at launch today because I wanted to see what you said first, and I’m glad I did!

[@janewarrick4083]

It really looks so pretty on you. I have dry mature skin so I’m afraid I may have to pass. Will look forward to your whole system breakdown. Thank you for doing a review so quickly...you’re the best!

[@shelleys.m.6999]

Love and appreciate all of your reviews Michele! I have similar skin to yours, so it’s so helpful to know how this foundation works for you (though it does look beautiful on you). ❤️

[@donnaapt3149]

Thanks Michele, I was already to go with this but with my dry skin it would only work for me in the Summer. Your videos are amazing, I like your balanced reviews. Even things you don’t care for you find some positive things to say.

[@mentalwellnessmama4468]

You are extremely informative and engaging and authentic to watch ! Thank you !

[@jocelynel-fab5214]

The colour match is great. Thank you for picking it up at sephora and doing a first impression video. The finish is very natural. It is oil-free so undoubtedly better suited to normal to oily skin.

[@jenniferruiz2245]

thank you so much for posting so fast... you and kinkysweat were on it! love that and love you!

[@loralee3232]

I love how you got hold of this foundation so quickly to review. It looks great on but I agree with you if it starts drying out the face due to alcohol it won’t work for a lot of people. I look forward to your review with the full collection. Thank you for this initial review!

[@aliciamichael939]

You are killing it with your videos lately I can barely keep up, amazing job as always michele!

[@TheMicheleWang]

Thank you so much, alicia!!

[@kimberleepalmer]

Thanks for trying this out. I ordered the whole system ... fingers crossed that it works out since I also have dry, eczema prone skin. Looking forward to your updated review of the powder and primer.

[@tanyawood275]

Thank you so much for getting this up so quickly! I have dry skin also so I may try to get a sample to see if it will work. It looked beautiful on your skin and has nice coverage! xo

[@tanjai2854]

Sooo love your detailed, honest review!!!! I was interested in your opinion about thus foundation, so thank you! 😘😘😘

[@theresag1969]

I so excited. Brilliant. I would like to see the difference between just the foundation and the entire system applied. That's why I love looking at your reviews, you don't complain, you are clear and honest about your reviews, and your reviews are intelligently done. Thanks again, Michele.

[@lbanana4840]

Honestly, you deserve so much more recognition than you have! I love your videos and the way you break down your reviews.

[@pamelacorral1151]

I ordered the primer and foundation today, I kinda wish I had watched this first. Im really excited for the Charlotte Tillbury one, more so than this one. That one seems like something I might wear everyday. Thanks for the quick mini review!❤

[@4l0ne]

Thank you for this review! I love Pat McGrath so I was tempted by this foundation, but will now pass it. I have dry, sensitive skin prone to eczema as well. I stumbled onto you through kinkysweat and I'm so glad I have! I enjoy how articulate you are and the obvious passion and enjoyment you have for makeup :)

[@bonniegeppert3912]

Thank you so much for the review. Looking forward to seeing if the primer and powder will help with the drying aspect due to the alcohol in the foundation. It did look very pretty on you but I totally get that in the end you have to feel comfortable as well!

[@missdella4990]

I love and appreciate how informative this video is

[@geeo93]

Wow you are such a good reviewer and so calming!!!! You def are different to the beauty community ! Love it

[@DazeofTrishka]

It's beautiful on you. You look like you just have perfect skin without any makeup. Exactly what I'm looking for. My skins a little oily so not bothered by the alcohol. THANKS FOR ANOTHER HONEST GREAT REVIEW!

[@jbb2009]

I love your nails! The color and the droplet design looks awesome!

[@dylanethyn]

So stunning on you! My favorite foundation for dry skin is actually tient miracle from Lancome it has alcohol but it stays dewy and fresh all day ! I’m super dry and it’s a holy grail for me ❤️❤️❤️

[@tarotwithtara2022]

Looking forward to the full review of these products! I'm so glad you chose to do a first impression for this video. The alcohol would be a deal breaker for me. I'm not eczema prone, but I'm very dry.

[@TheMicheleWang]

Thank you Tara! xoxo

Can’t wait to see the conclusion. I was wondering about this one ❤️

[@WilliamsPinch]

Oh hell yes!!! This looked so beautiful on you. I’m definitely getting this for my oily skin!

[@TheMicheleWang]

👍🏻 👍🏻 👍🏻

[@jerris-glennbooth902]

I just wanna say I bought a jo Malone candle today because of her other video and the Sisley essential skincare lotion as well. I’ve been using samples for a few weeks now and it’s one of the only things that does breakout my sensitive, dry, yet acne prone skin. I was on accutane for a year and a half and it really made my skin super sensitive and dry. Thanks for the recommendations!

[@CharlisDailyDiary]

Hey Michele 💖 Thank you for the quick review!

[@lizbakeslemons940]

I know what you mean about "feeling" products on your face and it makes me crazy too!! I just ordered the whole primer/foundation/powder system and I can't wait to play around with it.

[@karlaggarza]

Thank you so much for the review! Placed my order in the morning, looks really nice on your skin 🙌🏻🖤

[@TheMicheleWang]

Thank you so much, Karla!!

[@jamiecmartino]

I completely know what you are talking about with the skin shrinking! It starts to feel like you want to scratch your skin off!

[@ElysiumPondue]

I can’t believe you smoked! Your skin is pristine! Thanks for reviewing this. I briefly considered it but knowing there’s alcohol in it turns me off. I don’t mind a product with alcohol for my nose and chin, but definitely not on the rest of my face. It’s too drying.

[@irenevleeshouwers9320]

Thanks for getting this up so fast!!

[@adub_from_2534]

I had opened up YT to look for some first impressions and literally your video was the first that I saw before even going to the search bar! 😆😄 I actually don’t know how my skin reacts to products with alcohol too high up in the list, so I’ll make sure to start paying attention more. Thank you! Can’t wait to see the full day test.

[@KaysWays]

On point all the time Michele 😉 I definitely had to resist the temptation today but it looks great on you. I think 6 was a really good match on you and I can’t wait to see you try out the full system

[@laritalovesmakeup]

I’m excited to see the whole system. It’s expensive though for all of it together. It dose look pretty on you. 💖💄💋

[@christinah.8504]

thanks for the review. I would love to see how this builds up. Also, It would be great if you could test the new full coverage Smashbox foundation.

[@commonsense8318]

I am so glad I watched your video! I almost just bought this on a whim because I got so excited. But I have rosacea and my skin is flung really well right now. Thank you so much for pointing out the ingredients and saving me the $ money and the heartache from finding out the hard way! You are awesome Michelle!

[@commonsense8318]

I'm sorry. Michele. Autocorrect...

[@staceylewis5511]

Michele, thanks for getting this up so quickly. Alcohol in foundations is very hit or miss for me. In the YSL all hours I couldn't tolerate it at all but I can wear Armani luminous silk without any issues. I'm really looking forward to seeing the video when you review the whole system. I'm also really curious about the brushes.

[@youmisheardme]

I've never worn foundation before but just got a sample of the new PMG and was matched to Light 6 as well. I'm shocked by what a perfect match it is. I'm excited to see what other shades match you, and crossing my fingers they'll work for me too!

[@amandaseaberg9396]

Cant wait to see the full review! I ordered the entire system today, hoping it works well and the color matches! Always hard to pick shades online!

[@abbiekarr7166]

Thank you so much for the review! It helps a lot as I have got eczema prone skin here too... xx

[@gingerbadjie9670]

Thank you for getting this first impression up so fast. I can't use alcohol laden products, even in make up as i have atopic skin and it is having enough trouble without adding this into the mix. Here to see how you like it/it wears and your views though. Have a great weekend xoxo

I've never even checked for alcohol on foundations! Will be doing that for sure now! Your eye makeup looks extra pretty here! Would love a tutorial 😍

[@lisathomson3057]

Norma Macias did you rob a bank?!😜

[@brattingprincess]

Yeah the shade matcher suggested everything from 3-13.

[@mariell5349]

I think alcohol also keeps foundation feeling "fresh" or "cool" and not heavy. The finish is really beautiful.

[@katek3512]

Gaby L alcohol in cosmetics is a) preservative, b) helps to mix components together

[@mariell5349]

@@katek3512 From what I understand, it depends on the type of alcohol. Fatty alcohols are the ones you are referring to, used for stabilizing ingredients and improving texture. However, per the ingredient list on Sephora, that's not the type of alcohol this foundation has.

[@sweethartia]

Gaby L will it dry my skin out?

[@mariell5349]

@@sweethartia "bad" alcohol , (not fatty alcohols) does tend to dry skin out. I'd stay away from it if you have dry skin. You can also ask for a sample at sephora to try it out for a week and see how your skin responds to this formula.

You’re always so quick on getting these reviews out , love that .. have ordered mine , excited I must say . I thought about getting the brush but I thought pat had suggested applying with your hands so I thought I’d try that first ... great review Michele 😘

[@TheMicheleWang]

Thanks Helen!!

[@lpg8518]

I have to say, the foundation by itself looked gorgeous on your skin. To me, this is a minimalist foundation that goes on effortlessly. I just purchased this for those days when I don’t need to do a whole workup. Also, certain alcohols are not bad on the skin, may be a good idea to learn more about the type in this makeup.

@MicheleWang~ I agree with you about the color Light 6 being a neutral color vs a cool tone. I thought the same thing about the colors in the light-medium range that were listed as a pink undertone.

You look so pretty. It was great getting the 10% off. I only purchased the face powder. Have a great weekend xx

[@katharynlynnoggenfuss6103]

Thank you for the quick review. Sephora matched me with shade 7 but I tend to like neutral colors and was afraid 7 would be too yellow but ordered it anyway. Shade 6 looks very neutral. I actually think I may like this foundation because it looks similar to the YSL Fusion Ink Foundation which was discontinued in the US. Love your reviews Michele, and that monochrome leopard manicure is the bomb. 😍😍😍

[@dtrujillo60]

Wow! It looks great on you! Now I can't wait to receive mine. I did order the system and wearing the primer might make a difference on the dry down.

[@TheMicheleWang]

Thanks Dolores!!! xoxo
