    Loved this! For those of us who are very fair with neutral/warm undertones, Merit is a godsend. Love their lipstick! I think their pinker shades would also look fab on you - baby, maybe fashion, also their limited edition apertif (which I guess is no longer available).

    In terms of other videos would love to see an updated kit video, particularly if there has been any changes since the last video - thank you for the review that was very useful!

    I’ve been a lip balm diehard for ages and I LOVE their lip oil. It looks more like a subtle colored gloss on the lips but it feels like a balm-not at all sticky or heavy. It’s the perfect your lips but better product.

    Another great video! I'm so glad you're back on CZcams :) could you please do a makeup tutorial sometime for the genuinely no-makeup look that some of us want (the kind you do on clients for skincare brands etc., where they really do need to look like they're totally barefaced)? So far the "natural" looks I find are always still a little bit noticeable!

    Hi Harriet, great videos! Would love to see a review of the Fara Homidi lip compacts and lip pencils. Thank you for considering :) x

    I love Merit, the packaging is gorgeous and I love how natural the finish is. My fave product is rhe Signature Lip in Baby & the flush blush balm in Stockholm ❤ want to try the foundation stick and mascara next!

    Really enjoyed your review. I have several items from their collection and have had a love/hate relationship with some of the products. But I want to love this brand so I'm persevering. I've just ordered the face serum which I agree works so well with the foundation stick. I agree that the mascara is a stand out product - I'm on my 3rd one! The blusher is beautiful - I have the shade Fox. The bronzer is easy to use but I'm not sure it will replace my Vieve products. The effect of the highlight is amazing but the smell is off putting. I've not yet tried the lipstick out lip oil - that's next on my list!! Like you I do powder it down a little so I still have glow in some places but not in others.
    There is definitely something special about this brand and I've just placed another order.
    The other thing that is brilliant about this company is the customer service team. They are really helpful which is a must when you're in another country!

    Thank you! You are the first reviewer I have watched who actually used the Instant Glow Serum. All the others say, "I don't need that" and then complain about how the makeup works/stays on, etc. I found this company last Summer and have used the entire line - I LOVE it! I am 66 years old with normal skin, a little oily in the T-zone, like you I just finish with a little powder in that area. Does it cover every imperfection? - No, but again it says it is light to medium coverage so stop complaining when it doesn't cover every pore, mole, sunspot, etc. Go find a full coverage makeup if that's what you're looking for. I find my skin looks and feels good, it doesn't feel or look dry and cakey. My favorite product is the blush, I have three colors, Terra Cotta, Fox and Cheeky and enjoy each one especially over the bronzer for a little contour. I especially love that this goes into a smaller makeup bag & is easy to take for travel, (except for the Glow Serum, wish that came in a travel size). Great review!

    How would you compare their foundation / concealer stick with Westman Atelier?

      I would say that has more coverage and not as dewy as the merit one

      It is stunning! For me, it’s like my lips but better. And the limited edition eyeshadow in the gloss set is also very nice

    I would use that bronzing balm as an eye shadow...do you think it would have enough staying-power on the eyelid?

      I find it moves as it’s very emollient and if it gets in my eye it stings

    How does the Great Skin compare to Glossier Superdew? Does the glow last?

    I love Merit but there is very little foundation in that tube for the price. But the other products are the best.

  • @4200connor
    @4200connor Před 6 měsíci

    I'm new to Merit and kind of confused about the bronzer. It looks to me like you put the bronzer on your cheeks but then put the blush right on top of it. So, what's the purpose of the bronzer if you are putting it where the blush will end up? Sorry, I'm just kind of ignorant about makeup, lol.

    • @anmnou
      @anmnou Před 6 měsíci

      No, you are not alone! I do not contour and have always used bronzer on my cheeks and eyes! I never use blush. I also feel like I "don't get it" but then again, we can use make up however we like!

    • @tdreamer25
      @tdreamer25 Před 6 měsíci +1

      it's all preference really, I have paper skin with no rosiness so blush it's forever a must. Bronzer just adds a bit of depth and warmth while blush makes you look alive lol

    Tried it. It's "meh." Absolutely not worth thr price and had zero wear even on a relaxed cool day.
    Foundation stick: chalky
    Lip oil: oddly drying.
    Lipstick: Wet n Wild in a better container
    Mascara: Little impact and flaked.
    I had $205 in the starter set have requested a refund.
