Great review Caroline thank you.the foundation looked really good on you as you said great colour match for your skin .x
Definitely going to try this foundation!
I love your channel Caroline and your dry sense of humour! You're so relatable!
Thank you :)
Fabulous Caroline, Thank you so much for the review, I’m going to order this. I’m 66, so fingers crossed it will suit my very mature skin xx
Hello Caroline,
I must try this one, I like a light dewy foundation, nothing too thick and drying, so this looks perfect and this foundation looks really nice on your skin. I'm currently trying to use up the wet'n'wild photofocus foundation but my favourite one at the moment is the collection illuminating touch foundation-thank you for the test and review-really enjoyed watching 👍😀 xxx
Thank you so much for this review I'm 53 and so very conscious of cakey looking foundation.. it looked stunning.. will definitely buy!!
Brilliant review, it looks lovely on you, I am now off to get myself a bottle it looks so good. Thank you as always x
Let me know how you get on :)
Loved watching this video Caroline and the trick (excuse the pun!) with the playing card was magic xx
Enjoyed this tutorial thank you.. Wasn't sure about all the hype it was getting especially for mature skin but well impressed. Have just ordered some. 😊
It looks lovely on must get a bottle thanks Caroline great video as always XX love the way you do your eye shadow with the playing card I must try that xx
Thank you. I'm going to do an eye make-up video for February's Beauty Over 50 video :)
Thank you for your review! I’m in the United States, I’m 62yrs old and a truck driver. I just ordered mine through Amazon and can’t wait to try it! Not enough reviews from women our age, I appreciate you!
Looks very beautiful on you and nice “card trick” on the eyes ! Love that
I am waiting for my bottle to arrive from abroad. It takes about a month for the blooming thing to arrive. After seeing your video, I can’t wait for it to arrive now. Thank you for a fabulous video. I so look forward to seeing your videos. I am 65 and find many revues are by much younger people. At the moment I use No7 beautifully matte foundation which I love.
I hope you're pleased with it when it arrives. I like Boots No 7, but I don't like their prices, I feel like they suddenly got really expensive about six years ago and I haven't bought much from them since then. I used to like their Protect and Perfect serum.
You look amazing! Great review!
Great review. Really enjoyed this. Loved the use of the playing card 😁. If you wanted to try a much lighter coverage product try the Home Bargains BB cream for £1.99. It’s fabulous (as long as you use the right type of primer underneath). I use it all the time now.
I like a fairly good coverage as I have quite a bit of redness, but that cream sounds like a right bargain if you're looking for less coverage :)
Ordered it last night, it's on its way and I can't wait to try it now! Thank you
Hope you're pleased with it :)
Caroline (Mrs M) yes very pleased, it did just what you said and for the price is great......and as I'm 66 I thought it might have a struggle ha ha ....but anything else you find I will look forward to watching too. I have fair hair and bought the nude but may buy the next colour up for summer...thanks again
I'm off to order some of this..thanks for sharing and thanks for another terrific video x
Hope you're pleased with it, I really like it :)
I'm 65 and I've been wearing this for the past year, I love it and wear it everyday. I've had no skin problems since using it . This is my favourite everyday foundation. The coverage if brilliant and it lasts all day x
Another fan! It's so good, isn't it. Such a great find :)
Where do you buy it from, I have never seen it. Does it cover well as I have lupus and my face can be red
@@lindajosephine4544 Yes, it's quite full coverage. Link to purchase in the description box above.
@@lindajosephine4544 the best place to buy it from is Amazon or ebay, if you go on Phoera's own site it's a lot more expensive
@Gio Marrocco no I've had no problems with it at all, my grown up daughters are wearing it now and they love it better than the expensive brand they used
Another fabulous video! Thank you for sharing this - must look into seeing how much it'll cost to post here to Australia! Have a great rest of the week.
Hi Wendy, check on Aussie Amazon, I bet you can get it without having to pay high delivery costs. :)
I think the foundation looked fantastic it made you look really natural you looked gorgeous
I love that wall paper !!
Might have to wait till we go back to the UK for a visit as delivery costs to France are silly! Really keen to give it a try soon
In USA the foundation comes in a pack of 2 for $9.99. Worth a try. Looks great on you. Thank you for sharing.
I bought this foundation and tried it yesterday….I’m 77 and wrinkly….my take on this Phoera from Amazon,and it’s excellent…love it xx
New sub here! I adore you! Thank you for this review as I am also “seasoned” in maturity 😄 I love Phoera 💕
Thanks so much for taking the time to comment, lovely to 'meet' you :)
Your skin looks lovely I just got this and not sure about how to apply it,I shall learn
Love your make up videos easy to follow for me
Hi Caroline thanks for reviewing this cheaper foundation i have my young brothers wedding on the 2nd of Feb and since we moved house i cant find all my make-up and i dont want to go out and replace it all it would cost too much so this foundation looks just the ticket even the colour you got i will buy that , thanks again Sweetie .......big hugs Katie 💝💐💝💐
Hope the house move went well, and that the wedding goes well as well, I love a good wedding! :)
Hello Caroline, Your wallpaper reminds me of Van Gogh's "Starry Night", very pretty. I've tried a few different foundations and the one I like the most is CoverGirl Trublend matt. It doesn't settle in the marionette lines or crinkles around my eyes. Also does not give that flat over powdered finish. I have 3 other foundations that I'm using up on not- going-out-staying-home days. You have beautiful skin by the way. Hugs, Cathleen
Hi Cathleen, it's quite difficult to get Covergirl here, but I'll do some digging and see if I can find it, thank you :)
It looks great on your skin. I've been using it for a week now and it doesnt sit in my creases like every other one Ive used.
I was curious about how others were finding it so I ended up here! I'm very fair toned. I got one that was way too dark to start with, but loved how it sat on my skin so reordered. I actually like this more than Estee Lauder I tried. It blew my mind. I'll definetly keep using it 😁
Hi Monique, I've been using it for over a year now and still really like it. Thanks for watching :)
Looks fab and sounds amazing. I’ll definitely try it as my current favourite Bourjois Air Matt is harder to get hold of now they’ve stopped selling in the UK 😢. I’d love to see a video of which beauty CZcamsrs or Instagrammers you follow.
I'll do it as a Five on Friday, sometime soon :)
Looks lovely, and agree no reviews on mature skin. Thanks
The wallpaper suits you 😁
As a die hard double wear fan I tried this last year in an attempt to save some money. Like you, I was pleasantly surprised and the best DW dupe I’ve used. I do find sometimes It can feel a bit shiny with it but for £4 I was chuffed. The one problem I found was that it’s awful on a hot day - It literally slid off my face in awful patches. I’ll stick to DW for the summer but think this is an excellent dupe for this time of year.
That's really interesting to know, I'll see how it goes for me in hot weather, I can't bear foundations sliding off my face!
I’m 52 and have been using this foundation for a couple of months and I love it. I feel it very much suit mature skin. It looks great on you!
It's great, isn't it? I wish I'd tried it before now!
Hi. Does it settle in your wrinkles? I have trouble with foundation settling in my wrinkles
@@teresathompson7407 Not for me. I don’t put powder on top as I find that does sit in my wrinkles.
@@haidihaskins2889 ty for the tip
Great video! You do your makeup so beautifully! Really interested to hear about this product. I’ll be turning 40 in a couple of months and noticing my foundation is starting to look more cakey at the end of the day. This face you a lovely dewy look. Really love all of your videos! How are the windows coming along? Or shouldn’t I ask?! xx
Windows are now done - yay! Floor is currently being finished off. :)
In America but I went to my Amazon account and immediately ordered it..I'm 51 and trying to get a mature skin regiment..ty for sharing
Hope you enjoy it, let me know how you get on :)
I also have mature skin & have used this for over 1 year & LOVE it. Its only $6.99 here in the U.S. with free shipping at Walmart ONLINE. 😊✌❤
I am from London but teach in Bologna in Italy even though I am a mature Cancerian I still love wearing hairbands (am same age as you I feel they are very youthful)
I liked the primer on you I may have to try it
‘Morning Caroline, I bought Phoera last summer, good product but found it heavy for my very mature skin..after watching this I might dig it out and maybe mix it with a dab of moisturiser... looks lovely on you...Im currently in love with Sainsbury’s own brand foundation which is the princely sum of £5! xx
Oooh I didn't know Sainsburys had a make-up line. I will have to check it out, thank you:)
Caroline (Mrs M) it’s called Boutique, I bought the Serum Foundation, lightweight feel, radiant glow.. A huge display in our marsh mills branch.xx
I'm mature Afro oily skin. True Match is a good priced light MATTE foundation, no illumination or oil. I use a MATTE mens moisturer, Matte True Match foundation and True Match powder. Lasts all day, minimal OILY SKIN, minimal shine! Seen Phoera, seems OK. Had a Phoera matte lipstick, it was OK but streaky. Best Budget makeup is Wet n Wild Catsuit Matte liquid lipstick, NYX Turnt lipstick, and I use a $2/£1.55 Korean Ebay black eyeliner. Tip for dark skins: shave the hairs on your forehead and face, they grow GREY! MATTE , MATTE , MATTE. I sometimes use illumination powder for a night out! Matte it, good for oily skins! Uk 🇬🇧
Am going to order this foundation right away. If it looks half as good on me as it does on you, I’ll be happy x
Hope you're pleased with it :)
Hey Caroline, I've been looking for a new foundation to try as my current Rimmel one is better than others I've tried but still not quite right so I've ordered this as it looked great on you and for that price to it's amazing :) Just as a few shop with me idea's what about Debenhams, TK Maxx, Home Bargains, Morrisons, Boots and Superdrug xx
Good ideas, thanks, Lainie :)
Caroline I've just ordered this foundation , you looked great . I'm a bit older ,64yrs but I've always looked after my skin . Could you recommend a really good moisturizer for dry aging skin (mine not yours 😁) to wear under the foundation . Thank you xx
HI Wendy - really hope you like the foundation, I am so pleased with it. For moisturiser, M&S do a range called Formula with different products for different age groups. I find their moisturisers really good. Cheaper but similar, Superdrug do a range called Optimum, again different products for different age groups, they are very good too.
New subscriber........love catching up with you. I purchased this at your recommendation and will let you know how I like it. I also use the 10 magnifying mirror.
Hi Lorie, thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Lovely to 'meet' you :)
im 52 and buying it !! usually wear the double wear
I want to try it but no idea what shade to get :(
New subby!!! Yay!!
I got expensive Chanel, Dior and YSL lipsticks worth £31/$36 and budget Wet n Wild, NYX and Ebay Korean £3/$2 ones. The KEY is to prep, prep, prep. Especially for oily mature skin! Mua Locked Lip primer is demi- matte and £3/$2, a good primer for lipstick
For my weekend foundation at the moment I'm using Pericone no foundation serum as its light. It looks a similar bottle and size to this. The price this is available ar is tempting. Boots no7 hydroluminous is a heavier foundation and also disappointingly has a narrow color range. Why do they do that. Frustrating. You did a great GRWM. I should do one again soon. Thank you x
I struggle with Boots No 7 prices, they seem very high to me, and I'm almost inevitably disappointed by their products - I don't know if it's because have a perception that the products are less high end than the prices, maybe.
You're lovely even without makeup dear!❤
You're so kind, thank you :)
New subbie here can't believe CZcams has not thrown your video up in my feed before now
HI Donna, welcome and thanks for taking the time to comment :)
I....gulp....turned 60 last week. I had used Phorea once to test long lasting. The other day I put on before a flight at 5 am. I used IT cosmetics ByE Bye Pores powder over it. Sprayed with Makeup Forever setting spray. When I looked in restroom mirror when changing planes at 9:30 am. I had to say wow. My skin looked great. Which I never say. When we got to Mexico 6bhours later it was still good.
Fantastic. I'm so impressed with it. :)
I’m nearly 69 I have just started using this product and so far 😊 good
You look amazing
Tienes unos ojos preciosos,! Y esa base te quedo bien.
Thankyou! i spend so much on foundation and having older skin i am never that happy with them
i love the wall paper can i ask where it is from ?
Hi, it came from here www.worldofwallpaper.com/mineral-wallpaper-agate-jade-arthouse-903909.html?gclid=CjwKCAjwg-DpBRBbEiwAEV1_-L-PdJntW5yY5r2IX5UaAlTS_mQAhwGd0QKCvO7NXzC2Td-ETo0UNhoCmQIQAvD_BwE
Well, I’m going to give it a go
Let me know how you get on :)
I paid almost 20 dollars,wth, i loved it at frist but end of day was patchy bad😣
Did she mention the color ????
Looks like they have copied the ordinary for bottle design. Very similar, but cheaper which is great! Looks good on your skin. I'm 45 and have super oily and blemished skin, so wonder if this might be good for me? For the price it's worth a go. xxx
Hi Tracy, you're right about The Ordinary, it was the first thing I thought when I saw the bottle! I tried both the Ordinary foundations and I like the Serum one, but I like Phoera better - I think it colour matches better for too, as I always had to mix two Ordinary's to get the colour right.
Oooo....I so nearly ordered it but I told myself I’d use stuff up - my cupboard is over flowing with products !
Thank you so much, for this review, Caroline. I had been wondering if Phoera was too good to be true, but apparently not. It looks lovely on you. :)
Good Morning, Caroline. You are such a make up pro, loved watching this video. Have you ever thought about a trip to IKEA fir a future video?
Thank you
That is an excellent idea, Bronwen, thank you. Only this morning I was wondering where to go for next month's Shop With Me.
Just found you. I'll have to out on my Phoera!
I would love to try this one but I’m in the USA and I don’t understand the way the currency works or translates to us dollars
Hi - they sell it on Amazon in the USA too, just search the name Phoera 😊
Love your review
What is the song playing in the background please x
Sorry, I can’t remember, I filmed this a few years ago
it looks good on you...
I must try this - I wonder if they will ship to the US ?
Somebody else in the USA commented that they found two for 9.99 USD.
I’m watching as l get ready for work , I always sit you on my dresser as I put my makeup on , the foundation looks really nice , I’m 55 and I use a Dior foundation at the moment . It would be really nice to find a foundation that doesn’t cost so much , it has lasted very well , I’m just grateful after a 12 hour shift if any make up is left on . I’m going to try this one , is it a Spanish make .
I’ve just clicked on the link and it’s £1.92 as there is a sale on 😁
That is very very good value isn't it. Tempting at that price
Dior is my favourite high end foundation too, but I feel like cheaper foundations have come on leaps and bounds in the last ten years, Bourjois (sadly leaving the UK) I've been particularly impressed with.
Thank you for trying this product, will keep it in mind. I do need a new foundation as I have run out of my fav Laura Geller and have heard the formula has changed and not as good. I need to cover up a lot of redness and don’t know what to get?
Hi Caroline I had a look on the Phoera website. They have increased the price by £10. Not good. 😢
Hi there - prices as mentioned in the video on the links in the description box.
Thank you xx
You did an amazing job with your makeup & it seems to have lasted really well throughout the day. 👍 💄 💅😊
Enjoyed the video and the foundation and your skin looked great. As a senior fellow cruiser! , I've also enjoyed your videos on your recent trip and cruise on the QM2. My one point I must make is about your HAIR. Please, Please treat yourself to a good cut and colour. Sorry.
Would you go up to a complete stranger in the street and say that? No. Saying it here is much the same as that - just because you're anonymous and behind a keyboard, it's not ok. It's bloody rude. I'm glad you enjoyed the video though.
Looks beautiful on you!
Thank you for making this video. It is very hard to find women of my age making videos testing makeup products. I did buy this foundation and I was pleasantly surprised by the performance of it for the price. I think I found my new foundation.
Hi Jules - if there are any other products you'd like me to test, let me know. I enjoy trying out new make-up and beauty :)
You look so cute with hairband very youthful you should wear them more.
IAM 61 I LOVE TI SO FAR
New sub here x
I don't even want to tell you what I paid for this via an add that popped up on FB!!😬 Waaaaaay more than 4 pounds!!
Sorry, listened again & heard her say 102 lol
Didn't cover well. Disappointed.
Sorry to hear that. I find it one of the best coverage foundations I've used, but obviously it's different on everyone.
oh God get on with it. waffling on PHOEEERA PHEEEERA. PHOETA PHOEEEEEEEERA. STOP
