$5 Foundation with Shocking Results. Probably one of the best drugstore foundations I have ever tried. You won't believe the comparison that I show in this video. I compare $5 foundation to a $150 foundation. Shocking Results!

At 86 yrs of age got to tell you I LOVE the Wet & Wild foundation!!! I was told yesterday at Ulta that I looked 60!!!!! Thank you and lots of blessings!!! ♥️
How cool, Monica! Thanks so much for sharing this useful tip!
I’m 59 and it’s amazing ! 🎉😊
Beautiful!🥰
Funny, because I looked older than my age.
Can you tell me the exact make of your wet n wild foundation, please. I'm 65 and need all the help I can get!😊💕
I'm 70 years. Thank you for all your good advice. I have breast cancer but I am trying to keep looking as good as I can. Thank you so much!❤❤❤
Sending love and healing Pam. 🌿🌿🌿🌺🌿🌿🌿
I never make comment, but I'd like to tell you that you are helping a lot of people with more than makeup. I like having a window into a very different life than my own. Your presentation style feels very real, and your anecdotes are interesting. All I can say is its been a damn hard couple of years, and you are still putting yourself out there. Its inspirational.
Dear Nikol! I want to thank you for just being you , truly a breath of fresh air! I have to tell you , yesterday as I watched you doing your moms make up, I realized that tears streamed down my face , as I saw you with your beautiful Mom and the relationship you have with her! I’m 77 years old and would like nothing more than have you do my make up, but I live in the desert if Arizona and you live in the beautiful state of Florida. Thank so very much for doing so many wonderful things for as women!!!christa
I just started watching you here & there, but now am subscribed. Watching you w/your BEAUTIFUL Mom was touching as I lost my BEAUTIFUL MOTHER & BESTFRIEND 😢 in this world. Thank you for that segment. I do have a question. I've been crying for many yrs now & then losing my Mom broke me. I cry on a daily basis & I am now as I write this to you. From all the crying, I've developed frown lines & heard on the show " The Talk" that there is nothing you can do for that. I've tried mouth exercises that I saw on here, but to no avail. Is there anything I can do about this as it is embarrassing! Thank you for all that you do & your self confidence is inspirational. ❤❤❤
Sincerely, Deborah
simply put botox and use good comesticos her.
To @deborahdubiel9999
I am sorry about loss of your mom.🙏🏻 35:10 Hugs. I recently lost mine too the day before Christmas . I am so glad I found this channel with Nikol. She has many great tips and I am going to buy the wet and wild make up and concealer tomorrow. She is a very nice and sincere lady and mindful of us older gals, shows both budget and more expensive make up plus very honest. April
Nikol, you are the only woman I know - and probably will ever know - self-confident enough who finishes her makeup and then looks into the camera and announces, “This is beautiful!”
Seeing you struggle last week made me want to hug you, but then I thought, why in the world am I not as nice to myself when I feel overwhelmed? Usually, I push through-but your words and the kind words of wisdom made me think. We need the same kindness we would give a friend! Thank you for being honest and thanks to everyone here who shared. It was a revelation to see how many people responded!
The wet n wild looks prettier on you. It matches your skin beautifully!
Nikol, I just bought a bottle of this yesterday and tried it this morning. WOW! What a buy - $5.29 at Target! It felt so silky on my face and I just loved the "finished product". Thanks so much for all of your hints. We older gals really appreciate all of your sensible ideas. You always make my day! Thanks so much!
I ❤ watching your program. VERY GOOD HINTS FOR LADIES 60+.
What shade did you buy? Wondering if I should try one of the beige. The price is right to try two if the first one misses.
@@joannephillips4110 I first bought light beige but thought it was too dark, so I bought porcelain and mix the two. You can't go wrong even if you buy two different bottles. I love the consistency. It offer good coverage. Good luck!
Thank you!
@@joannephillips4110 Let me know if you like the product. Good luck!
Girl, in this world where everything has become so fake and for show you are like a breath of fresh air…I’m 46 and find it very hard lately to find any channels that are relatable, and quite frankly likeable……..so thank you for being authentic💕
As a 69 years young woman. I love all the tips and tricks. Love seeing you. Thanks.
I love the sincerity you bring. Honestly, I’m sure to spend $150 dollars in a foundation hits hard when on budget. But to bring less expensive options is a blessing. Thank you 🙏
TY so much for your down-to-earth options for those of us on a serious low budget and still want to look our best. I am 83 and do ballroom, latin, swing, Argentine tango and now learning the Paso Doble.....I must look good on the floor. TY!
@gabilweb1844, You should make videos of your dancing and post them here on CZcams.
And smart!
I love how your dressing gown matches the wallpaper. Thanks for being so natural and normal.
I want to thank you. I was receiving comments like "feel better", which really began to upset me. Your channel was in my CZcams feed and I started to watch. I bought some of your products and some drugstore products. I have been told recently that I look fantastic. I definitely need practice with the eyeshadow. I love your eye primer and just peachy!!!! You have made such a difference in my self confidence!
This is such great news Kerrin! xoxo
Nikol, the reason I keep returning to your Mon/Fri videos is because of the authentic YOU. You are often mirroring how we feel or what we are going through and that is one of the connectors to your audience. I really enjoy that part of your presentations. Love this comparison and they way you offer alternatives. Not everyone can afford the $150 for Channel but now at $5.49 you can get an excellent result that is affordable to most budgets. Great work Nikol! Just another reason I enjoy your channel. Besides cheering me up on low days, you offer extremely useful information with a smile & a laugh! Have a great weekend!
Thank you 😘😘😘😘
I think the real test to a foundation is how it looks after hours of wear. To date I have found that expensive foundations last better and will look good hours later and not separate and sit in facial creases. So a comparison of how a foundation wears through the day is useful.
I seldom wear makeup during the day unless I go out. I don't like makeup and especially foundation. Many times I put a serum on, give it time to settle and use my concealer lightly. I use a cream blush and that's it. The older I get the less I use. I have used Clinique all my life but lately I have used concealer. Next time I go to Walmart, I am going to try Wet n Wild. I love clinique but it feels too thick even over a serum now. Hope this helps.
I’m absolutely stunned by how well and how long Wet and Wild holds up. I was a BIG skeptic. No more. It’s my go to foundation now. Of course I always use a setting spray with all my foundations. Bonus… I’m saving a lot of $$$$
when is best to apply sunscreen
last step or?
@@joandatt2662 With the base.
it’s hard to judge something in a video or photograph, but to me, the Chanel looks a little bit smoother. Did you leave the make up on for a while and how did it feel after a few hours?
I love how you show us all price ranges on makeup and skincare . This is why we all love and trust your opinion . We love your honesty 🥰
Nikol I've used the L'oreal lash primer for years. It doesn't damage your lashes at all. I so enjoy your videos. I'm 80 & always find something new that I can use by watching you. Stay blessed!
BOYCOTT L'OREAL! WB & DISNEY!!
This product wets the lashes taking ALL the curl out. If they could only come out with this in waterproof!!!!!! i have stick-straight lashes and they point straight down!!! maddening, so since 16 years of age, I must curl my lashes by heating my curler with my blow dryer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And... can ONLY wear waterproof mascaras which will keep them curled for possibly 6 hours! tried heated curling wands but don't work on my down-turned stick-straight lashes!!!!! never once worked. so I hate taking my mascara off in the evenings! i sit with two saturated remover ovals on my eyes for 5 minutes and then must work another 10 minutes to remove every lash! because I also have to wear a lash serum on a very well-cleansed face and eyes, before applying this serum for growth. never have my skinny thin lashes thickened but at least they are much longer! any suggestions welcome!
@@dannagordon9618 maybe start with your volumizing mascara first. Follow with lengthening and/or defining mascara in waterproof. Worth a shit if you haven’t already tried it. ☺️
@@dannagordon9618
Boy can I relate Danna !! 70 yo 'makeup always' girl here, & have been thru All of that frustration aa well.
But, I Finally found a solution to my thin, straight lashes: 1)curl like crazy (Shu curler),
2) then use MAC Extended Play Perm Me Up mascara (winner because it works, lifts and lasts but is not waterproof !) 3) and when 2 coats (if necessary) of that are done, 4) finish with a light coat of NYX Control Freak 'eyebrow' gel. I use that for lashes And brows, like safe shellac 😆. I take off the whole works at night easily with cotton round generously soaked in Neutrogena oil free eye makeup remover for 5-10 seconds. Then I use Clinique Take The Day Off Balm on whole face & smooth over eyes as well. Rinse off everything & voila !.
The eye process takes only a few minutes is gentle & no more rubbing, tugging and losing lashes ! Good luck !
@@suestevens7389 PL...I'M GONNA TRYTHIS MASCARA and shellac! and already have the shu eye curler, and will let you know! thanks! can't hurt! i like my milcelaer water for removing and does well, but I'm skeptical to try non waterproof mascara! i have to try it to believe it! but hate going thru returns dept and mailing it back if it doesn't work! but I will try!
FYI Nikol. Since I have been putting my makeup on with your direction, I have had many compliments on my eyes and face. It makes me feel so good. When I use the Ocean blue color the people are so complimentary. On my brows too! Using your products has been enlightening. Thank you for doing what you do! You really are positive for women.
"Well no, I can do it with my right hand, that was weird." Nikol - you are the best!!! I was giggling so much at this. This is SOOO something I would do. I love your authenticity. Laughter leads to learning....I learn so much from all your videos and have so much fun at the same time. You are simply the BEST!
The W&W side looks better IMO than the Chanel side.
Great find!
I agree. It looks more natural.
I started just watching CZcams when the pandemic began, mostly makeup and skin care. I quickly learned that there are all sorts of people out there pushing something. But, I quickly learned that Nikol was straight up legit, truthful, with full of integrity. I’m always looking for the next foundation that will make my 62 year old skin look amazing. Ever tempted by the expensive products, probably because of price, I’ve avoided a drawer full of expensive foundations. When Nikol raved about this foundation, i thought for $5.48, it was worth a try! WOWSA, this foundation is BEAUTIFUL! I absolutely LOVE IT! THANK YOU NIKOL!
Thank you very much, I’ll try the wet n Wild,it looks beautiful on you!❤️
OMG! I have been using Wet N Wild during Covid because it was the only one I could put my hands on and I love it! I thought I was been 'cheap' because I liked it so much but now that you tried it I feel so much confident about my foundation. Thank you. 🌹
Honey , don’t you ever feel cheap just because you are using an affordable product.
If you like it and it looks good on you - just use it.
Looking gorgeous and feeling confident without having to spend a lot of money is what we all want!
❤️
@@danielatoskic8425 kñm
Wet & Wild? Who knew. I’ll give it a try. Thanks. I’m probably spending far too much. Marketing is a brain washer!
I came across your videos on CZcams today, and just want to thank you ! You’re so beautiful, inside and out ! I appreciate your honest approach to make up for someone older, like me. Turned 50 this year, and it’s easy to get depressed when applying my make up like I did 20 years ago, and having it now, look ridiculous. Your videos have buoyed my spirits ! Maybe I don’t have to throw the towel in quite yet 😂. You’re wonderful. Thanks for what you do !🙏
Congratulations! I am sooooo happy to have the oppty to share the TRUTH once given to me: Your 50's can be the BEST Decade of your life!!!
I dismissed that at first, but the years after 49 revealed how accurate it is! When hit flashes end, it is all happy sailing from there. Life becomes easier, as we are wiser. I dreaded aging after 29....little did I know how liberating these later years are! I assured my granbabies to never fear getting older. For me, despite some very challenging circumstances, life has never been more satisfying! I am no longer struggling as a single Mom....on an adrenaline race 20hrs per every 24.
It is much like returning to your teens; without adults interfering
Amazing how the less cost foundation looks. Unbelievable it shows me not to knock out the products that are less cost. Thank you for sharing. Love it
I love Wet and wild,been using it awhile, so far so good I'm 73 and have always taken care of my skin. I like the soft look not heavy.. Love watching you Thank you...
The Chanel looks more matte. But they both are beautiful. Personally, I like the Wet and Wild. Can’t tell.
I went to buy w &w foundation and discovered that they also make a tinted moisturizer which I found to be fantastic, with very good coverage. My prior product by NYX was discontinued. But this is even better. I only found it thanks to this video.
Almost forgot, I love love the Velcro curlers!! I use them every morning! Can’t live Without them! Thanks so much for sharing about them.
LOreal makes a double ended mascara that's a primer on one side and mascara on the other. It's a tubing mascara and it's FANTASTIC.
I wish Nikol would add that to her mascara. I love hers, but still miss the Loreal fiber lash.
This is absolutely amazing! I am so impressed that you shared this video. I would never pay $150 for foundation (unless I win the lottery and maybe not even then). I so appreciate your honesty about products and your life. Thank you for your passion and commitment to helping all of us trying to be our best selves. Big hug to you.💟
I’ve worked at Neiman selling all of the makeup that they have. I’m STUNNED at the Wet Wild. It is by far better than the Chanel, it grabbed the cheek Color quickly and seemed not to move . The ❤Wet Wild blended beautifully and looked more natural. My daughter has been telling me about Wet Wild line for years. I’m sold!!!! Thank you so much. I wish I had eyebrows like yours. I’m a blonde maybe that’s the reason I don’t have eyebrows…….. Thank you again Ann
Niko, after watching this video I went to my local Walmart and purchase the Wet & Wild Photofcus foundation and I love it. It is moist and it looks like my skin not like I have foundation on. Thank you so much for sharing. I cannot afford expensive makeup and do so appreciate you for sharing this. God bless and stay strong.
I have mature dry skin and have been trying moisturizing foundations for several years. I bought this wet n wild makeup and I am loving it! Thanks for highlighting it!
Thank you for reviewing $5 foundation. Alot of people have had reversals of fortune recently and finding a lovely, and dare I say, CHEAP, foundation is a great help
Thank you. Oh! How is the wear of the W&W foundation?
My secret is out. Been loving this W&W for a year. Good skin prep makes all the difference.
I actually decided to try this foundation and I LOVE IT! It is one of the prettiest foundations i have tried and i loved that they tell you if the foundation is cool, warm or neutral as it helped me pick the ones i wanted to try. Thank you!
Bought a blazer and wore with jeans like you suggested. I got so many compliments. Thanks so much, everyone thought I was hot looking. I’m 68.
Hi Nikol, both my mom (73) and I (48) LOVE LOVE this foundation! We each got our shade and just like you said it applies so easily and it looks so smooth, natural and beautiful . Thank you so much for the wonderful and affordable tip! I actually wouldn't have ventured to try foundation on my own if it weren't for this great tutorial. Thank you for all you do! It's so fun to watch and learn from you. Also, your new eye shadows are on my Christmas wishlist! ❤🤩
You are my favorite makeup tutorial channel. Just found you and am glad I did, I have learned so much from you. I have been changing the way I do my face and have gotten compliments with the look. Thank you from the bottom of my heart ♥️ Hope you continue to teach us for more years!
Thank you
Nikol, I am happy that you are giving yourself PERMISSION to slow down. Remember, we can't help others unless we are healthy ourselves. Been there , done that most my life. It's not worth our Mental and Physical health. You are amazing 👏❤. please continue to do what is good for you!!!! You deserve it too !! Blessings my dear 🙏❤. Thank you for what you do.
Hi Sandra how're you doing today?
Wow! I am just stunned! I just can't believe how gorgeous the Wet n Wild looks. It was so fluid, smooth, with such lovely coverage. Amazing. Please follow up with end day results? Florida is humid and warm, so I am curious. Thank you so much for being so brave in trying products and then sharing the great finds with us! 🌸🌸🌸 And thank you so much for being so positive, real, and inspiring. 😊
I always think the same thing. How does the makeup not melt off her face 9 months of the year?
I was just going to ask the same, we just moved to FL from CA and it was very dry there but there's alot of humidity here, I'm not sure how this will work becuz the foundation seems to lean towards being shiny.
I'm in NC and it's heat and humidity here, too. I wear Covergirl and have for years. I set my makeup with a setting mist and I will need to lightly powder a couple of times but other than that it looks good all day.
@@violetfem1808 what would going to a matte foundation as an experiment be like?
@@kcloveonaleash I'm actually new into foundations ... if I wear anything it's a basic sunscreen tint. I'm trying out Loreal True Match & it's pretty good for me so far but I'm still searching in case there's something better =)
Wonderful!!! I do love the dewy appearance of the Wet n’ Wild foundation! So grateful for the time and effort you always put forth for us, you’re an amazing woman!!! Sending love & appreciation for all you do lovely lady!!!
Nikol, I did not get an opportunity to respond to your video last week about not being able to continue at a frenetic pace, but I have thought about that topic, as well as some of your other recent VLOGS where you discuss your intentions for this channel, for the past week and wanted to say thank you for posting (and for not taking it/them down!). In addition to the makeup tutorials in your content, I really enjoy your commentary about keeping it real, talking about things that no one else discusses, and your words of encouragement for women to be their authentic selves, however imperfect. Thank you for not being afraid to expose your vunerability, for showing us your moments of frustration, and for being philosophical about your approach to beauty and to life. I can't say enough about how much I thoroughly enjoy your channel - it is about so much more than getting a beauty tutorial, and I always feel uplifted and as though I have spent a few minutes chatting with a friend after I watch your videos. I am a 52 year old professional woman (who also happens to live in Florida) who has spent the past 2 years trying to redefine myself after losing an executive level position early in the pandemic. I realized that my identity was too closely connected to my career, and after losing my job I no longer felt powerful, relevant, beautiful, or empowered, even though I have always prided myself as someone who is keenly aware of claiming my power. I have recently started my own grey hair journey, and am really dedicating myself to living authentically, living a more balanced life, "taking out the noise" (as you stated in this video), and exploring who I am at this stage of my life (and who I want to become). I just want you to know that your work in making women feel empowered and beautiful is very much recognized, heard, and appreciated! Watching your channel has been very energizing, therapeutic, and enjoyable for me, and I look forward to your videos every week! Having said that, I also want to have the presense of mind to say that I do not want you to feel pressured into having to create constant content, as I think your audience appreciates that you require down time and balance, as we all do! Thank you for the richness of this channel - it is so far and above anything else that I have seen out there! Best, Elizabeth
Really appreciate a review on drugstore foundation. While I may like the appearance of high end products, many of us can’t afford the price. It’s nice that someone you trust gives you an affordable option.
The Wet n Wild looks glorious! 😍 I know brands like Chanel cannot lower their prices bc they have to keep up with their image, but in so many cases things aren't worth the price tag and this is one of those. I'm not saying Chanel is bad, I'm saying it doesn't match the price tag and it becomes so obvious with this side to side comparison. The Wet n Wild photo focus original formula, the matte one, isn't drying. You'd probably like it too, especially for the summer or when you're wearing a mask.
. *THE WORLD SHOULD HAVE MORE PEOPLE LIKE YOU, NIKOL.*
I don't like to spend a lot of money on cosmetics and I always appreciate your honest reviews on less expensive products. I've been using a Cover Girl foundation that you recommended and I love it. I'm headed to Target right now to grab some Wet and Wild. Thanks for all you do! 🌹
Nikol, I love all your videos. They are so informative and relaxing for me to watch at night. I tell all my friends in my 70+ group! I liked what you said about velcro rollers. I like to use them on the days I don't wash my hair. Just pop them on before your shower and the steam sets your hair so it looks great when you're done with your makeup and pull them out. Lots of volume and no 'dirty hair' look! PS...love the videos with your pretty mom too!
I've been using the regular Wet & Wild Photofocus foundation for 2 years. It's great at a great price, but I'll have to try the dewy formula. Thanks for the video. 💖💗💖
The Wet and Wild looked great. No foundation should cost $150. Thank for doing this kind of comparison. You’re great!
Thank you for sharing the foundation for people like me on a limited single income. I loved it!
Hi Carthy how're you doing today?
I bought the Wet n Wild foundation and it is incredible!!!! Thank you for this!!!
Being genuine is such an attribute! I appreciate your ability to apply makeup so artfully and I enjoy your personal style so very much. I was thrilled to learn you curate your exquisite wardrobe from thrift or re-sale shops. I am so happy with the lip products I ordered from your beauty line. I hope your happy days far outnumber your challenging ones; life is like nothing I've seen before (not sure to whom to give credit for that observation).
I only came across your channel a few days ago. I rarely give myself time to do makeup but your direction is amazing. Your honesty and integrity with the products you style with really makes an impression with me. Thank you again.
I love your videos because you seem so genuine and real. You laugh at yourself and you take risks. You look so classic and classy.
I appreciate the time that you take to find an inexpensive products that a senior like me can afford. I don’t know what your struggles are since I just started watching this channel but I love your authenticity.
I like the Wet & Wild better on you. Just got my products from you yesterday. Excited to use them.
Love watching and the makeup tips are so helpful. I'm older now but get compliments often when I put a little more effort into my makeup. I don't generally watch other makeup channels but the ones I have seen go to ridiculous layers upon layers of makeup that end up looking like masks. Who wants that?
You are awesome, kind and caring to reach out and help us. Everyone struggles! Keep looking up and doing what you are doing! Blessings!
I'm definitely going to try this drugstore foundation. It does look beautiful on you and I like the fact that the blush didn't go on so heavily.
The Wet and Wild looks fabulous on you! You are so right, the blush grabbed the moment you applied it. Part of the joy of makeup is finding new and fun things. Love your channel, your style, your products and your love of life!
I am new, age 72. I have learned so much already, especially watching you with your Mom. You both are beautiful. Thank you for all the information!!
Please don't stop! I just found you and I'm so inspired. Love love love.
I love both.....however with the Chanel it has just the right level of dewy and smooth without very little shine. The Wet and Wild is great also.....but it does have a bit of a shine
I agree. 😊
Thank you for this fabulous video! You are so honest about you and about Beaty products. It is a blessing to me to watch you teach. You are beautiful inside and out.🙏❤️
You look so good! The two foundations side by side are so hard to tell the more expensive one from the other! I for one will be trying the wet and wild for sure! Thank you so much for your videos, I so enjoy them!
I've been looking for a dewy foundation. Can't wait to try the Wet n Wild foundation. Thanks for highlighting!
Hi Julie how're you doing today?
Ran across you on CZcams and am very impressed with your candor. I love how real you are and you are now one of my favs. Can't wait to see the next vid.
I have watched so many of your videos and you're special. I always felt you as a sensitive soul and honest with your tips. Hey girl, I need your advise and so glad you decided to keep it up. Thanks for your work.
What a fantastic find! It really is super helpful to all of us on a budget to see how these products behave in the application and look when you're done. It's amazing and something of a relief to know what I'm spending my money on. Thank you so much!
As you are gorgeous, inside AND out, you look marvelous and your beauty shines thru, make up or not!!!
This was a real find! I really think the Wet &:Wild looked so much better! It wasn’t $2.00 on Amazon but I think $4.00 and some change. Thanks 😊
Truth and honesty are so refreshing. Thank you.
Bravo!!! You made my Friday night! Thank you for being the unique, exquisite and pure gem that you are. I am so grateful for you. We love you!🌹
You are so authentic! Please let yourself be yourself..you are loved and so appreciated!!
Thank you
Morning Nikol, Thank you for the content of your videos. I love makeup, fashion and glamour in life and definitely enjoy your channel for the same reason. I love your personality in many ways and appreciate you showing us affordable options as well❤
I love the way you do your channel! I love the way compare products so we can know the best for each person!! LIVE YOU
Just ordered couple of your cosmetic items and can't wait until I get them. Started watching your videos few weeks ago. So happy that I found you. Thinking about going back to my salt and pepper hair again. All you ladies look very beautiful with your natural pretty silvers and grey hair. 😍
Thank you can’t wait for you to get your order!
Wow!! That Wet and Wild foundation looks so pretty! Thank you for doing this video. So insightful.💖
I love Nikol as she always gives new products and techniques I can use.
Thank you so much for recommending that primer!!! Such a game changer!
I love the Wet & Wild foundations, I also mix the colors to get a good skin match. It leaves my skin soft where some of the more expensive foundations leave my skin dry and funky feeling. Thanks for showing a great cheap foundation, you always have great videos.
We love you. With the videos you put out, they are quality and I go to them often. God bless you and your work!
Nikol, I only very recently discovered your videos, so I didn't see the video you referenced in this one. Nevertheless, I think I got the gist of it, and I want to say that you are not alone. A great many of us have felt overwhelmed, overworked, and stressed to the max. If we are honest with ourselves, I will be that every single one of us has said out loud (or even silently), "I just can't go one more step. I'm done." I do not believe that we would be human if we didn't reach that point at multiple times throughout our lives. Thank goodness for your honesty about this! It is liberating. I will bet that you have enabled many women to admit that, sometimes, we all need a break from our lives - and to feel OKAY about those emotions.
The last thing REAL women need is to see and hear about the "perfect " lives of other women when we struggle with many different issues and feelings. Life is hard. It isn't perfect for anyone; TV and the celebrity magazines only make it seem so. Then, we feel less than in comparison. Because you don't do that, you are relatable.
You come on wearing no makeup and show us how we can improve our appearance within the privacy of our own home. We can slightly modify our look - or we can dare valiantly. Because of what you give to others, I'm open to doing all of that. That is your gift, and I believe that it is also your purpose. We all need purpose. Yours is in making the lives of women you don't know and will likely never meet fresher, better, renewed. Thank you for sharing yourself and your skills with the rest of us. Yours is a gift of magic for more lives than you can imagine.
Love your videos! You’ve given me the confidence to do my makeup and feel good about it! Love your products!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Thank you for smearing all of the information you do on your channel. I think you are beautiful and amazingly talented! I am so glad I found your channel.
The Wet and Wild looks more natural and beautiful❣️wow, that’s awesome😃
Thank you so much for buying and reviewing the five dollar foundation! Can’t wait to try it! I love watching your channel!
This is my first time watching one of your videos. I had seen short clips of you on on instagram on fashion. Always loved your elegance and grace. I rally enjoyed the video didn’t skip once. Was a pleasure to watch. Thank you for sharing your wonderful self with us. ❤
I have been using the L’Oréal eyelash primer for 3 years. Absolutely love it. Thank you for this comparison. Definitely going to try the Wet and Wild foundation.
Thank you for being brave and trying this foundation. I am excited to try the new foundation. Beautiful on you!
Great video! I am an Estee’ Lauder DoubleWear lover for years but always open to less expensive options, especially for everyday wear. I am 68 and love dewy finish foundations. Thank you for this Nikol!
You’re only human. You give the best advice. I love your channel and I am so grateful for you
The photo focus has one of the best coverages as far as any foundation. Beautiful coverage, not to dewy not to matte. All day coverage. I do like it, however it has such a strong funky oder and if I have a busy few days where I need to wear a full face, I have noticed that it does mildly break me out. It’s not everyday go to, but a night out for a few hours then a face scrub. It is my grab. I do get compliments on my skin the nights I do wear it.
I purchased the W&W when first out, because everyone raved. I felt the same as you-loved the product but it smelled like something I’d prep the walls with before painting-seriously awful, and I don’t even mind scented products! So, returned it (BTW, did you know Walgreens will let you return opened makeup, no questions asked with your receipt?) which made me sad. So..... I wonder if they “fixed” the smell? Now I want to try it again!
The original wet and wild with the more natural finish had a bad paint thinner smell but the newer dewy one isn’t as bad. I mix the two foundations together for a little more coverage and it seems to last longer in this warmer weather.
Wo! That foundation for $5 is amazing! I think I will try it. Your robe is also fabulous! Many thanks for presenting your discovery!❤️🌹
I love this look on you. Youthful and fresh. These colors are perfect.
Thank you, finally someone who is on the same wave 🌊🌊🌊. Keep posting ❤❤❤❤
I tried the Wet n Wild foundation. It wore well and the shade I got is a great match for my skin - I am so happy I tried it! Thanks for the recommendation.
Beautiful on both sides. I love your videos and I love watching you put on makeup. It’s very soothing. You make it less of a science and more of a practice.
Hi Nikol..I have just started watching your video's.. Love how natural and real you are.You are a beautiful soul inside and out. Thank you for sharing your energy. XXX
Yes, yes to aromatherapy. Looking lovely, Nikol! I enjoy and appreciate your authenticity!! Have a great weekend!
I love your channel and you. I’ve never been much for makeup or skincare but once I turned 40, I knew I needed to get in the game. You give so much great information and you’re very relatable and refreshing. You make me feel like I can handle this thing called beauty. You’re quirkiness is comfortable for me…I’m a generally awkward and quirky person. Thank you so much!
