The Keurig for Foundation?? + WARNING about Ciele's New Bronzing Drops! | WUIM Product Report

[@jenluv]

*NOTE* Regarding the Ciele product: Yes WE know we aren't supposed to rely on SPF in makeup, but I don't think the general public knows that. The product specifically says that the product ITSELF provides an SPF 50+ protection. In the video on her website, the owner specifically says she does NOT recommend putting it on full strength and NO WHERE does it say that it needs to be applied over SPF for people to get that level of protection. New survey results were just published (tinyurl.com/3k9e5f8h) that said 80% of adults report that they have a skin concern, but only 40% of them get a regular scan at a dermatologist. How many of those 40% of people asked their dermatologist about wearing sunscreen under makeup? Maybe 20%? Yes, WE know we need to apply SPF under SPF makeup, but this is NOT common knowledge. Please consider the skin health of the average consumer! It's not just about us, right?

[@cassmacdonald-perfectlyimp2486]

I think you’re absolutely right; if you’re mixing those drops with something else, it’s going to dilute the concentration. It just is, because that’s how it works. I’m with you - I’d wear SPF before makeup or even use the ambre solaire spray sunscreen for after makeup. Figured, like Perry, that this is in potential breach of trade descriptions acts across the world with the claims

[@dogwalker97]

I say this respectfully as a skin cancer survivor, how many people that are not aware that they should be using sunscreen under cosmetics with SPF, are actually purchasing prestige cosmetics that contain SPF let alone assuming that the cosmetic foundation, bronzer etc) will provide full protection? I think it’s a very very low number. I think the group here has wisdom regarding sun protection but also the general public is not far behind. They are basically in one of two categories; increasingly aware or don’t care.

[@montananerd8244]

@@dogwalker97with all respect, I disagree. I was very proud of myself for starting SPF daily in college. By the time I was in my 30s, in the 00s, I knew that some spf products were not adequate on their own. But, the only facial sunscreens sold in my town were hard to find & quite expensive, so I reasoned that Eucerin daily lotion with 30 SPF was actual sunscreen. 2 decades later, I am very spotty. The public does care, but if you have other serious health concerns and/or can’t afford dermatology visits, it’s not likely you’ll be able to get to the bottom of all this, and you may not be able to afford the outrageous price on sunscreen that is suitable for one’s face. I am guessing you have a fair amount of privilege, I’m very sorry you’ve had to deal with skin cancer, but I’m guessing you do not also have a lot of other serious health concerns, and have the time & resources to get what you need. There’s a lot of us trying to get it right but we don’t make enough money to cover all the preventive must-haves.

[@Muh-Rang]

I think you should do a deep dive on the Ciele brand. I think they're capitalizing on people's skin anxiety in a dangerous way. Their product descriptions on their website or Sephora say nothing about using their products as supplemental SPF. More importantly, they claim to only use mineral sunscreen, but all of their products contain SPF boosters, which are functionally chemical sunscreens. I didn't even see a mineral SPF clearly listed for their powder! Also, sunscreens are drugs and they're making drug claims about their products.....but their website doesn't even have an ingredients list. The only place to see an ingredients list is a third-party site, Sephora. What they do list, at length, is what they don't include. Except a lot of those ingredients aren't even commonly used in skincare. I mean PLANKTON is on there. C'mon. Also, they don't use "pore clogging" ingredients, like shea bitter, except when they do, like with the beeswax in their products. I think this brand, like many others, is marketing themselves as "ethical" while behaving as unethically as possible. I believe them about sun protection though because they're certainly shady as hell

[@bajubner]

As an ex-Sephora employee, the colour-picking-scanner-thing has me *very* skeptical. I'm all-too-familiar with Sephora's ColourIQ system and its shortcomings. It seemed to be able to grasp dark and deep skin tones quite well, but if you're medium everything is yellow, and pale people might as well avoid it altogether because it *will* make you hot beige.

Yeah... The Sephora sellector system also matches what's available int store/warehouse colour id's. For me and pale Olive tone i still had to pick a yellow olive foundation and add illamaqua white to it... and if nesacasy right up Blue mixer from MUFE. >_< I'm very curious one this one because this is what profetional makeup artist do all the time. I also suspect their is a way to tweak the formula's that are scanned as well because it's done by ratios.

I would also be interested in how the foundation machine handles faces with rosacea, freckles, vitiligo/melasma etc. Also, how does it react to scans in differing light, in places where the natural light is more overcast grey/super bright sun and homes with warmer bulbs or no mirrors with bright make-up lights?

[@jennypettersson]

I’m a device lover too, but this one I feel a bit 🤔. What kind of foundation is it, I mean there’s oily, dry, sensitive etc skin. And that can change with the seasons. I like the idea but I’m not totally sold. Love hearing about these thing 😊.

[@pippaloves]

Agreed, what if you want full coverage, or light and dewy? I like that people are trying to innovate though. It makes it interesting.

[@ririjet361]

I am my own Keurig every morning. I mix about 5 foundations, plus a green corrector to match my medium olive skin. Some of the foundations are more glowy, others more satin. I guess if you really love the foundation formula of this machine, it would be worth it. But I'm too picky with my finishes

[@monicapatton1405]

That’s my thought, what base are they using? In theory this is great but I don’t want some starter foundation. They need a version of this in store with multiple brand options as the base.

The brand ciele does not recommend using their products as your sole sun protection, they always state to wear your sun protection underneath your makeup, sun protection in their products is seen as added benefit, but I do agree that not all persons will know that and then they will use just the makeup product and think they are getting the 50+ protection

[@jenluv]

Can you tell me where you got this info? I just looked on their website and watched her instructional video and no where does it say that it must be used with another SPF product for that 50+ SPF protection. I wish she put that where it could be found easily, or even better, I wish she had just left the SPF out of the bronzing product. :(

[@DeaDGirlSanya]

@@jenluv I saw it on her instagram both her personal and brand page, however it is on stories, so when it is posted 24 hrs later it is no longer available, maybe because i follow the accounts and i check instagram often, i got to see her explicity state to use sunscreen prior to her makeup products, i do think she needs to state that on every product page or even on the faq page to be more transparent

I don't have it bad compared to so many folks who can't find anything close to their shade at all, but I end up having to blend most foundations down onto my neck & chest to keep it from looking weird.

[@traetrae11]

I'm someone with a medium dark skin tone with olive undertones and it's practically impossible for me to find a good match in a foundation that is also the right finish for my combo skin that gets oilier in the summer and drier in the winter. The best foundation I've found that matches me perfectly without making me too dewy or overly matte is the Lisa Eldridge foundation in shade 23. Depending on the finish and wear of their formula I would actually consider something like this especially if they expand so that you can choose the finish and also choose to make the formula thicker and lighter/darker for concealing and contour. We'll see how this works out for other people.

[@funsizedi88]

The device is cool, but the only issue would be if you enjoy a brand of foundation and the quality of it (full coverage, light coverage, oily skin, dry skin appropriate, etc.). Wouldn't this device give you the same type of foundation each time? Or do they offer different bases before the colors are added? What if the formula starts to break you out after awhile? Or dry you out, or make you shiny?

This is brilliant for people who can't find their perfect shade, or those who are a lot darker in the summer than winter, or even those special occasions where you get a dark spray tan and need a better color for a week or two.

[@dancingshig]

Is it expensive? Sure. But then I looked at all the foundations I purchased and missed the return window for, and that's way more than $300 in the past few years. If they can address finishes, and it wears well, I wouldn't be opposed. There's just the issue of popularity and whether the company (or other companies) can provide the base level pigments for the longer term.

It those that are expensive and where the cost is recovered. And, I would also wonder about quality and finish of the foundation. If it doesn't look good, doesn't work not matter how prefect the colour match is.

[@ReneeKana]

I was thinking the same thing. Even though the machine itself is actually less than I was expecting and I have the budget for it, if the refills are exorbitantly expensive then its a moot point (lets hope they didn't take TOO many cues from Canon). Also deeply curious about coverage, finish, future potential add-ins like to mix skincare in.

[@sweetpeachbellini8245]

Not sure I'd invest in this. "Prescriptives" (by Estee Lauder) back in the 80s was amazing and your foundation/powder/concealer was mixed right in front of you. You got to try it before you bought it (I think it was $30-35) which was a tad expensive, but because it matched your skin exactly, it was worth it. A bottle would last from three to six months, plus there was also the option of getting a matching loose powder as I mentioned. I wish they'd bring that back. As for the Ciele SPF 50 bronzing drops, I'd like to see what Lab Muffin says about that. I trust her opinion regarding SPF because she's Australian, she's a cosmetic chemist and has a PhD in chemistry.

[@Arosci]

Jen, I love your analysis 😍 You are always spot on when it comes to see every sides of a thing and guess what the potential problems may be 🥰 Around 09:00 you talk about the base (and the various brands that teied to do something similar). I actually remember the Lancôme one, and after checking the inci list of the base, I thought I'd never use this foundation : it was way too emollient, and without any ingredient providing long-wear or transfer-resistance 😖 So, if I have to choose between a perfect match with my undertone or a perfect match with my skin type (oily) that needs extra strong lasting power, I far prefer to choose the lasting power and deal with a shade that is not quite accurate 😉 Love ya ❤❤❤

[@maquillamelily212]

I never knew that olive could be a pale skin tone and I also never thought I could be pale olive with my German/Irish/Scottish genetics. I thought olive skin tones were only people with Mediterranean ethnicities. Live and learn. I have found that a drop/smoodge of pale blue corrector counteracts any foundation that's slightly too warm. Also the TirTir red cushion in shade 21W is a good match for me.

I've been in quite a few local plays, and the main issue we come across is makeup - we try to keep makeup costs down, but since we have 1-3 months of nothing between shows, we have to buy more foundation for every new show. If we can, we try to have people buy their own foundation, but its a huge waste for those who only use it for shows!

My old trusty ones are now orange. I've tried tons and been color matched several times but I'm still lost. I might not buy this but I'd love to try it. PS...have a great vacation. We went to Alaska last year and absolutely loved it.

Excited for your trip! If you haven’t, you MUST visit Oregon. You’d be surprised how beautiful it is. I far prefer it over Washington. Enjoy!!

[@PastelBrushes-n-Donuts]

Yes. I fully support the necessary justification for not to get the foundation maker and test it for us. Go for it!

[@jenmajczan3113]

My concern is that you buy the machine and once you get the right matching foundation, but then you don’t like the finish or your skin is too sensitive to use it.

[@naomilasby7744]

The foundation mixing device is pretty cool imo, if it works, but it really depends on the formula of the foundation. They would really need to have different formulas/finishes as you said. I custom mix my foundation shade alot in the summer.

[@sharoncerretani]

@JenLuv I hope You reached out to Ciele to tell them the SPF issue. For those people that don’t happen to follow you. This is super important to tell everyone or at least the company. As my beauty Influencer I’d appreciate you going to bat for us. Thank you ❤

[@zbrnkv]

I'd love to see your review on the foundation thingie!

[@phoenixwebbmua8800]

I’m not about the device to mix my foundation. Still bitter about the loss of Prespectives Cosmetics stores (after Eestee Lauder bought them) where a human was employed and trained to colour match and create custom colours of makeup whilst client sat in chair.

[@AKbaby89]

I love matching my eye makeup to my shirt😂

[@Ittybittyree33]

Just... I don't know how to say this nicely.. not getting the same color on both eyes is the point. You have to understand how to artistically work with things that don't match. Not everything has to be the exact same all the time...

First time i really fell in love with a palett and first time i have ordered from a indy brand, but i couldn't not by the solmåne 2 pallet from odens eye and two blushes 🙈 love your coverage on the new news in makeup. I have never pampered myself with a really good eyeshadow pallet. Ordered through your link 😉 Im kinda new here but love what you do ❤

[@CallMeAL1]

I would be interested to see the foundation maker develop into a paint mixer like you have for wall paint, where it mixes too to ensure the product is evenly mixed AND have suggested contour/highlight mixes you can have popped out too.

[@Makeuplovingphotographer]

I love the wand idea. Got matched at Sephora like that and it worked ok. I had to try some on to make sure they were not too orange.

[@Gcozayyy]

So excited for this ❤

[@vickyG46]

I am in the middle range ( medium dark with neutral undertones) I Always have to buy two shades & even have a blue mixer. My concern with the foundation mixer, is the oxidation. It will match at first but what happens when the oils mix with the foundation?

[@carsonsavannah3448]

I live in Alaska. You’re going to love it. And you’ll be safe, trust me 🥰

[@lauriedavies6514]

Omg I used to love up the amp when I was at university! I cannot now but wow that’s a blast from the past 😂❤

[@YarX0]

Boots have been doing the matching service using a face scanning device for a while so I assume this foundation gadget works similarly in terms of shade matching. It's expensive but if it works for the people who find finding the right shade hard and the foundation is good, it can definitely get customers. My only concern for colour matching would be skin discolocoration - any redness, hyperpigmentation - which could lead into incorrect matching, the people in the clips seem to have fairly even skintones.

[@thebunnydiaries]

The Mac lipsticks were so interesting bringing back discontinued shades but they sold out SOOO FAST… flesh pot was super popular and I hope they bring it back ❤ also didn’t they already have a glow play collection?? I have a glow play lip balm from maybe 2 years ago… so is this a shade extension? I know the ph part of the lip balm is new ❤

[@SaavyC]

The foundation maker reminds me of the LIPSKIT lipstick maker. This one is obviously higher tech since it is custom mixing a color to match your skin, but its definitely similar

[@laura143justice4]

But omg I am super stoked about that foundation device...other than my concern with my melasma....I'm still really curious about it!!! I actually seriously want to get it!!!

[@supersoap4]

I think this device sounds very cool! It would be great if you could review it Jen!

[@mariebellwood4376]

I'm intrigued by the first gadget. I am a sucker for dessert lip stuff.

[@gabriellestrandquist2950]

Omg Jen 😂 burnt butt cheeks, I cannot 🤣

[@marjorielee5991]

Oh Jen, I so love your honest opinions! "Burnt butt cheeks" I love it, something you can't unsee or unhear. It is a hard no for me on the foundation mixing machine even if they make one for blush or nail polish lol. Its also a no for me on the bronzing drops, there are only about a million options for me to add my own SPF. No no, no! Thanks for what you do. Have a fantastic vacation, it sounds really cool.

[@CherrieWells]

I need you to buy this machine! Not only because I want to see how accurate it is on shade matching but also, I want to know what the quality of the foundation is! Please, be our guinea pig! It's all in the name of beauty and helping us to not buy crap 😂

[@audralynR81]

10:02 @ Jen Luv I’m right here with you! I would definitely get this!!

[@megancondon3355]

Jen I'm wearing that lip now and love it! Read the technology behind the company!

[@megancondon3355]

Recommend 100%😊

[@amymichele2000]

I’m very interested in the foundation device. Would love a review!

[@Remnants_]

I’d love to see a review of the foundation mixer. I’d be curious to know how they go. But it is probably a short term novelty. I’ve seen how paint mixer machines that pick up colour from an object, don’t always get the shade right, so I wonder if this can actually pick up on the small differences in skin tone. I really struggle to find a good colour for my really pale skin. If it works it colour be good

[@BdazzldNails]

Currently I use a 50 spf and a 30 spf foundation and mix those 😬 for my daily face lol I literally dab the two fingers worth and my foundation and then use a brush to swipe it all together and into my face 😬 looks great no dark spots or sun burn so 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@saira._.elizabeth]

I’m actually pleasantly surprised in the price 😮.
