These videos are so calming for me hahaha does anyone else watch them before they go to bed because it's so satisfying watching her organize everything
I buy the Loreal Tru Match Lumi and put it into the Loreal Lumi Cushion when it gets low because I like the convenience and the fact that I can just dip my beauty blender in.
The formula for both foundations are actually different interestingly enough. Quick tip, once you feel that you've finished the cushion, use a pair of tweezers and flip the sponge. The foundation ends up sinking towards the bottom and all the product is saturated on the other side of the sponge. I hope this helps c:
Tilikum1983 Tilikum1983 I was about to tell her the same. It's for oily skin. Every dry faced person I've seen try it absolutely hated it. I'm an oily beast in my tzone so I'm planning to try it soon. I'd love the hourglass stick too.
Man, I honestly am envious of your decluttering skills. I have SO. MUCH. MAKEUP. And I guess I should take up youtube, but nah. I am obviously a collector. Or a hoarder.
Kirstin Frosheiser I am a makeup addict and had to stop myself. My goal was no eyeshadow, foundation, powders, setting spray etc... unless I really need it un5il Summer. What happens. I got a 25$ gift card for Shopper Drug Mart from my darling from his Mom. What did I get? an eyeshadow quad with beautiful purples by Quo for 24$ BOL. .My sweetie is so bad he encourages me. He said to think of it being a pretty special quad gift from his Mom! lmao. I must stop.hahaha
Kirstin Frosheiser I'm the same way! I have so much makeup, a lot that I never even reach for, but I can't make myself give it up. I go through everything at least once a month and give stuff to my cousin and sister, but honestly it's usually stuff I didn't want from my Subscription boxes or samples I've got from Sephora and Ulta. My husband constantly tells me I should start a channel. Especially since I spend 70% of my time watching CZcams videos. It's seriously something to think about sometimes. At least then I could justify my addiction, right? Lol.
Missha products are/going to be in store at Target this month! Check with your local Target to see if their displays are up yet! I love Missha products so much
Brittany Britton yes I saw that. There's some stuff I want to try but I mean just an overall drugstore like Loreal, olay, say yes, roc etc. there's so much new stuff & idk what's actual good and good for you.
Allyson Wonderland if you're looking for cruelty free options, I say give the 'Yes To' lines and 'Formula '10.0.6' a try.. I've had some hits and misses, but the 'Yes To' coconut and tomatoe lines have some products that are now in my forever skincare arena - they're awesome. I haven't tried a lot but Ulta does do the buy one, get one half off of the 'Formula '10.0.6' a LOT so you can essentially get two products for ten bucks; can't beat that to try them! The cucumber / coconut mask [can't remember the name, they have some odd names to remember] is amazing and I love their 'Be Berry Ready' cleanser for mornings, it's really gentle and smells super yummy!! Sorry, I know this is kinda old but I've really been into skincare lately and it's hard to find good cruelty free options.. ELF does have some good ones, though; their gentle melt cleanser replaced my Pond's cold cream, and I've used Pond's for almost 20 years, LOL on and off, I'm not ancient but it was my ma-maw's favourite and I've used it all my life. I never thought I'd find a cruelty free eye makeup remover I loved as much, and if you only use the ELF one for eye makeup then it's not too badly priced.
Michelle JKB THANKS! GOTTA TRY IT! I've been avidly searching out drugstore BB Creams, and not a single one has been right with my dry skin! My Target is undergoing a huge remodel, so right now, they're not ordering anything new, OR even replacing items they ALWAYS carry that are sold out. Very frustrating. But, am going to larger city with a MUCH bigger Target on Tuesday 1/24, so will ABSOLUTELY make time to stop in and check it out. Again Michelle JKB, thank you SO much for the info!
Amy M. Fry ahh I'm glad I can help :) i noticed something different right away when I was there yesterday and I was like what are these! They are by the boots section, in the "cult favorites" section. Use target online to see what target they are at while you travel. They have all 5 shades online, it's the red tube like was in this video, and you can check to see if it's in store. They also had the time revolution first treatment essence spray and night serum and the regular day serum. And the time revolution first treatment essence mask. It's a dual mask that is triple layers (it has the chin part that lifts under your chin up and helps reduce double chin). I picked up two of those cause these masks are awesome. They also had a pore hydration stick? I don't know what that is and all the instructions were not in English, I need to look it up. Their Korean beauty section has really expanded! Glad I could help :)
Amy M. Fry oh I guess they have 2 different kinds, the red one that's in this video and a pink one with flowers on it called the missha signature real complete bb cream. The red on is $22 and the complete is $29, prob just have to research and see what works best for you.
I agree with Arielle - it's thicker when you initially apply it and a very little amount almost magically blends super thinly to give you really great coverage. A brush works infinitely better than a Beautyblender for this purpose.
love your declutter series and channel in general 💝 glad to see a fellow Hoosier doing well. i live in bloomington but lived in indianapolis for 5 years in the warren central area. youre so down to earth so keep up the good work!
justicia marquez I was a dorito with the lightest on. They supposedly have a new shade but it's only one shade lighter so I don't know how much lighter it is
justicia marquez Same! And the undertone was way off so even using my white mixer from Nyx didn't help. It's sitting in my graveyard as we speak, but I'm decluttering my beauty room this week. It's gotta go, sadly 😢😢 Maybe they'll release lighter shades, but I doubt it.
The cushion refills are interchangeable. You can even buy empty ones so you can add your favorite foundation for easy quick travel and touch up. I love them.
Flip the cushion upside down in the loreal cushion! There will still be a lot of saturation at the bottom of the cushion. That's a thing that happens in all cushion foundations. Make sure you flip them over when they start getting dry on the top.
MamaMittens In my opinion ELF has amazing products not all of the products are great but the foundation,eye shadows some skin products and the brushes are doops for high end brushes. The company is Awesome as well.
I agree with you about the hourglass stick foundation, it is really a game changer for me. I apply it, spread it out with the special hourglass brush you mentioned, and then use the beauty blender to smooth any difficult areas. That's how I'm able to get it to look best on me.
I have oily skin and I enjoy the It Cosmetics CC Cream. I just have to be sure to set it. I am really enjoying the declutter series. It's nice to have the mini reviews of all of your products!
Make sure to flip the sponge over in the cushion foundations to help them last longer when it seems like they've run out! The product will settle at the bottom
I am VERY pale and wear the shade 110 in the Revlon Color Stay Normal/Dry. It is really light, but has a very neutral almost grayish tone. Also, you could always add the custom cover drops to it if its a little light.
I actually love the way the hourglass stick looks with a black beauty blender. I bounce it and do a bit of swiping, and it looks flawless. I also love it with the Real Techniques expert face brush. I recommend both!
Yes I totally agree about the Colorstay! I wear the 250 because the yellow undertone really suits me and I just use a beauty sponge to make it a thinner coverage so it doesn't look so off. I have such an issue finding yellow undertone foundations at the drugstore, and especially ones that work with my super oily skin.
I have the No 7 Airbrush Away foundation in a shade that's really gray and it's amazing! I never would have thought the gray tone would match my skin so well but it does!
I wear the Revlon Colorstay in 150, but it's a little too light and flat, so I add a little Lumi foundation that's too warm/dark. It's the perfect blend- color wise, and formula wise!
I love MISSHA BB cream, and they also added few new shades. I also heard that they coming to Target in 2017 or maybe they already sold in Target. Their skincare is amazing as well.
Allison Lewis I'm the same. I highly recommend the Manic Panic Dreamtone foundation in virgin (white). I found mine at Amazon. I mix it my foundations and I love it. Some people say it causes break outs but my skin is really sensitive and I haven't had a problem. It completely changed my foundation game.
Allison Lewis I have the same problem. There is a pale youtuber that I watch and love. Her user name is ThaaTaylaa and she does super pale foundation and foundation Friday every friday
I have normal to oily skin, particularly in the summer. The IT CC+ cream works well for me. I apply it over clean, bare skin and set it with powder or IT Celebration foundation when I need extra coverage without looking cakey.
All those Missha products are also available directly from Amazon in Prime. Comes in 2 days from Amazon...not those funky Amazon sellers. I've had that burgundy tube of BB cream for the last year and I swear it's the best thing ever. Like it even better than the IT Cosmetics CC cream. Similar coverage, similar great skincare ingredients, similar SPF and like half the price. Biggest challenge is that it's a Korean beauty brand, so obviously they are only interested in colors for their demographic. So nothing for people with dark skin tones. Amazon is also GREAT with beauty returns, so if you want to try a shade and don't like it, they will do returns/exchanges so easily.
Try Sand Beige in the Revlon Colorstay. Also, I love the covergirl clean matte bb cream from the drugstore as well as the garnier bb for combo/oily skin.
I don't know if you have tried the NYX BB cream, but it's my personal favorite. It does a very good job of neutralizing my redness on light makeup days. 😄
I thought this was a great declutter. It shows you've been thoughtful about the foundations you add to your collection to begin with! I remember watching an old foundation declutter of yours and you didn't feel super positive about many of them it's great to see you grow into knowing what you truly want in makeup. Also you were awesome about keeping things for good reason. Foundation is tough because when you find something *right* it's a big deal but you still need to cover your bases as far as coverage levels and seasons etc. where as say blush is easier to let go over because 10 other brands make basically the same one. No two foundations are the same.
I'm sure I've said it before, but I love my L'Oréal Pro Matte and Pro Glow (especially when I mix the 2 together!). I really need to channel Jessica's decluttering skills for my eyeshadows... WAY TOO MANY!
I mix Buff 150 & Sand Beige 180 in Revlon Colorstay. In the winter I do mostly Buff with a dot of Sand Beige and in the Summer I'm just Sand Beige and 50/50 the rest of the time.
I just discovered the L'Oréal lift and blur less than a month ago but it's amazing on me. I have textured skin from severe acne in my teen years and this just works so well for me. So many foundations draw attention to my uneven texture and this just makes the best out of a crappy skin situation. Nothing will ever make my skin smooth outside so laser treatments or something. I loved it so much I ran out and bought more because it was half price at my Rite Aid.
I have very oily skin but I watch ALL your declutter videos because you actually get rid of a good amount and it prevents me from becoming a hoarder 😅💕
Thank you for mentioning how quickly the cushion foundation runs out! I felt like a crazy person because no one was mentioning that and were just raving about it.
Also the L'Oréal pro glow in Creamy Natural would probably work well for you. It oxidizes on me to be a little darker than my skin tone, but if I blend it on my neck it just makes me look tan.
Clinique foundations are actually pretty affordable. The silk one is $25 and some of the drugstore ones are not far off! I do love the silk foundation though! Wish they would've sent you a different color!
I love these! You give so much information as to why and why not. You talk about everything in these videos, I can't get enough! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you for taking the time to swatch on a declutter video. We have similar skin tones and it is very helpful. I checked out the Boots No 7 foundation after you recommended it in a recent video. Idk about all locations but my local Target had it on clearance. I was hesitant to try something I possibly couldn't repurchase. I have been on the hunt for about a year to find something I really love. Still looking. This was helpful. Thank you!
My favorite drugstore bb cream is the Burt's bees one. Great coverage and stays all day. I love you decluttering videos, they always inspire me to go through my own collection
Don't be too hard on yourself. You don't have to be cut throat all of the time :) Feel good in knowing that you're holding on to things that you truly love and work for you. Hey, if you find yourself not using a couple in the upcoming months you can always re-evaluate your decision and let it go then. The fact that you're pairing down in the first place is an awesome thing for any of us makeup lovers to be able to do. You definitely always do way better than I can even aspire to do.
I also used to wear 150 in revlon colorstay because of the greyish undertone you mentioned, I now wear 180 and I think it's perfect! You might like it also!
I really enjoy the covergirl bb cream. It's light coverage but I like it because it has spf and it lasts all day. It's more for a natural look. I use it on days that I'm in a rush and don't have time to pat in foundation.
I was just sent an IT cosmetics collection (QVC) that included the IT cushion foundation. It is INCREDIBLE!!! I use a brush instead of the puff that comes with it around my nose and eyes. It looks like I don't even have makeup on, and it feels like my SKiN! For more coverage (or matte look) I use my Laura Geller powder foundation on top. (I also have a terrible time finding my color at Cliniique)
I'm loving the IT Cosmetics CC cream too! Right now I'm trying out the Smashbox BB and Tarte's Rainforest of the Sea. I think we're pretty similar in skintone, and I wear the shade 200 nude in the Revlon Colorstay. When you finish your IT CC Illuminator, if you want that same touch of glow, mix something like Becca's Shimmering Skin Perfector with the regular CC. That's what I did today, and I really liked it.
I use Almay Smart Shade for my BB/ CC Cream for the summer. I use 200- Light /Medium. It has a SPF 20 in it & it's so light but covers Great & I have rosacea on my cheeks. I love it!!!
204 in the pro glow has that grayish tone, think it would be a good shade match. I use that in summer, 203 in winter, which is more yellow, but with that grey. both would probably work for you!
Great to see you loving my favorite Korean brands - both Missha and Dr.Jart :) I love their products but they sell it more expensive in the States so I end up stocking up on my "necessities" whenever I visit Korea. Also a little tip when using cushion foundations (anything in cushion in general) the sponges do soak up products but if you keep pouncing on your face even if you think you have put all the product you initially got on the sponge on your face, you will still see something coming out. Those sponges are designed that way (at least as far as I know) so you actually don't need to keep putting the sponge back to the cushion.
Just got the IT CC cream today. I already really like it, and a woman only put it on to see how it would look on me. That combined with the Poreless Pressed Powder, and my face looks really good! I've been really into minimal beauty lately, so this is a repurchase! IT CC is my foundation, anti aging, primer, and sunscreen all in one!
Taylor Williams I agree. I can't spend a lot of money on makeup but I make an exception for the IT Cosmetics CC cream and the Bye Bye pores powder. I buy everything else from the drugstore.....like the ELF eyeshadows.
ill have to check into Elf eyeshadow more, I'm very picky with eyeshadows, but eventually when I'm on my own, I know I cant afford everything midrange. unless I buy it all now while I'm still at home, or save up once I'm on my own.
I also love the IT cosmetics CC+ cream and just recently bought their tsv on QVC. It had a brand new foundation, confidence in a compact. OMG, I love it even more than the CC cream.
I have the hourglass foundation as well and I use it with the elf ultimate blending brush and I love how it applies ! I definitely recommend giving it a shot :)
They now have the 7 brand at Walgreens !!!! Huge display too.Ohhh if you have a squeeze tube with pump and you want to get the last bit out of an expensive brand just use a pair of scissors and cut a part of the bottom corner and you can end up squeezing a ton out .... Ohhhh use a Q-tip to keep everything sterilized.
Covergirl clean matte bb cream is absolutely amazing, it got me off going through bottles and bottles of fit me, and its got amazing coverage. Highly suggest.
morphe g8, technically its blush brush, but i have used it with the MUF stick foundation forever, tried it with the hourglass foundation and it looks amazing
I really like the e.l.f foundation but my favorite is the it cosmetics cc+! I know it has those glitters in it but it really works with my extremely dry skin the best.
These videos are so calming for me hahaha does anyone else watch them before they go to bed because it's so satisfying watching her organize everything
I buy the Loreal Tru Match Lumi and put it into the Loreal Lumi Cushion when it gets low because I like the convenience and the fact that I can just dip my beauty blender in.
The formula for both foundations are actually different interestingly enough. Quick tip, once you feel that you've finished the cushion, use a pair of tweezers and flip the sponge. The foundation ends up sinking towards the bottom and all the product is saturated on the other side of the sponge. I hope this helps c:
I really don't see much of a difference in the formula. But thanks for the tip! :)
Hayley that's a great idea!!
If you have dry skin....steer clear of the Anastasia foundation stick lol
Tilikum1983 Tilikum1983 i agree it accented every dry patch
Tilikum1983 love your name 🐬😢
Tilikum1983 Yes! I'm combination but it definitely made me look dry!
Tilikum1983 Tilikum1983 I was about to tell her the same. It's for oily skin. Every dry faced person I've seen try it absolutely hated it. I'm an oily beast in my tzone so I'm planning to try it soon. I'd love the hourglass stick too.
agreed! I like it for my typical oily skin, but if I have dry spots I can't use it.
Man, I honestly am envious of your decluttering skills. I have SO. MUCH. MAKEUP. And I guess I should take up youtube, but nah. I am obviously a collector. Or a hoarder.
the pro-glow comes in creamy natural also.
Kirstin Frosheiser I am a makeup addict and had to stop myself. My goal was no eyeshadow, foundation, powders, setting spray etc... unless I really need it un5il Summer. What happens.

i'm such a hoarder too! i started a makeup IG to help keep track of what i actually use (shameless promo it's @angela_beauty)
the cover girl clean matte bb cream is really good.
also try shade 203 in pro glow. I think it would match you.
elizabeth greer i wear the lightest shade of the pro-glow and idk if it's 203 but i think it would be a good match for her too
201 is lightest, but it's very pink imo
Catherine Thibodeau yes light is very pink
Can you do an updated formal occasion routine?
yes
Missha products are/going to be in store at Target this month! Check with your local Target to see if their displays are up yet! I love Missha products so much
Could you possibly do a drugstore skincare video?
Allyson C She has an Elf skincare video!
Brittany Britton yes I saw that. There's some stuff I want to try but I mean just an overall drugstore like Loreal, olay, say yes, roc etc. there's so much new stuff & idk what's actual good and good for you.
+Allyson C i heard olay regenerist (anti aging products) are amazing
Allyson Wonderland if you're looking for cruelty free options, I say give the 'Yes To' lines and 'Formula '10.0.6' a try..

They started selling the missha bb cream at target
Michelle JKB THANKS! GOTTA TRY IT! I've been avidly searching out drugstore BB Creams, and not a single one has been right with my dry skin!

Michelle JKB really thanks
do you happen to know if misha is cruelty free?
"Is this the first one I've passed on? That's embarrassing". 😂😂😂
You can buy the Missha bb cream and cushion foundations on amazon!
Actually you don't have a lot of foundations compared to a lot of other videos I've watched...you have more than me though lol.
I use the hourglass foundation with my Morphe M439 (a dense buffer brush) and it work amazingly!!
Arielle Oder Me too! We are foundation/brush twinsies! 💋👯💋
Arielle Oder do you think it would be okay with a regular beauty blender? I don't really like foundation "brushes" but I really want to try It out..
I agree with Arielle - it's thicker when you initially apply it and a very little amount almost magically blends super thinly to give you really great coverage. A brush works infinitely better than a Beautyblender for this purpose.
Would this foundation work for combo oily skin? I have a pretty oily t zone and large pores either side of my nose.
Arielle Oder Ok thank you :)
The cover girl clean matte bb cream is amazing. Don't let the oily skin claim scare you, I'm dry and I love it!
Best CZcamsr. I trust all your opinions! No hidden agenda. I love it.
love your declutter series and channel in general 💝 glad to see a fellow Hoosier doing well. i live in bloomington but lived in indianapolis for 5 years in the warren central area. youre so down to earth so keep up the good work!
btw im also buff 150 in the colorstay
Kristina Robinson I live near bloomington too! small world
My best friend went to Bloomington, she lives in Evansville now. :)
Kristina Robinson I live in Indiana too. Near the Fortwayne area
Shout out from Franklin!
I love the bare minerals complexion rescue. Its so natural looking and light on the skin
i wanted so bad the milani conceal and perfect foundation but the lightest shade is WAYYY too dark for me
justicia marquez Did you try shade 01 or 00? 00 is a new shade and it's suppose to be the lightest one.
Vanessa Thammarath i havent seen that shade yet but now i guess im gonna be on the hunt for it lol, thanks!
justicia marquez I was a dorito with the lightest on. They supposedly have a new shade but it's only one shade lighter so I don't know how much lighter it is
justicia marquez Same! And the undertone was way off so even using my white mixer from Nyx didn't help. It's sitting in my graveyard as we speak, but I'm decluttering my beauty room this week. It's gotta go, sadly 😢😢 Maybe they'll release lighter shades, but I doubt it.
justicia marquez same!!
I absolutely ADORE your declutter videos! I rewatch them constantly and can never get enough.
I thought you said that neutrogena bb cream was an exact dupe for the it cosmetics cc cream? I could have sworn you raved about it
I'm obsessed with the ELF Foundation! All time favorite, and have gone through SEVERAL bottles!
The cushion refills are interchangeable. You can even buy empty ones so you can add your favorite foundation for easy quick travel and touch up. I love them.
oily skin loves the it cosmetics cc cream too!
I love the Missha magic cushion foundation! You can get it at Amazon for around $10.
Dam seriously? ?? wow.
toxigenic I just got the same BB cream she has on Amazon for $12.80!!
The hourglass foundation is leaps and bounds ahead of the ABH one, especially for dry skin
Flip the cushion upside down in the loreal cushion! There will still be a lot of saturation at the bottom of the cushion. That's a thing that happens in all cushion foundations. Make sure you flip them over when they start getting dry on the top.
I've never tried elf products. I will need to check that one out. My skin is usually dry.
MamaMittens In my opinion ELF has amazing products not all of the products are great but the foundation,eye shadows some skin products and the brushes are doops for high end brushes. The company is Awesome as well.
MamaMittens I love the highlighters primers and blushes/bronzers. Very pigmented, looks very good on the skin
Also so many of their brushes are fantastic!
Courtney Robinson Yes!!!
Right now the Elf foundation is the best I have of three brands. Little goes a long way and it blends really nicely.
Everytime you come out with your declutter series it makes me want to declutter my own makeup stash! I love it!!
I agree with you about the hourglass stick foundation, it is really a game changer for me. I apply it, spread it out with the special hourglass brush you mentioned, and then use the beauty blender to smooth any difficult areas. That's how I'm able to get it to look best on me.
Your declutter series is the best!
Hourglass works great with the Artist Brush too!! I know it's not cheaper but still looks fab!
I have oily skin and I enjoy the It Cosmetics CC Cream. I just have to be sure to set it. I am really enjoying the declutter series. It's nice to have the mini reviews of all of your products!
Make sure to flip the sponge over in the cushion foundations to help them last longer when it seems like they've run out! The product will settle at the bottom
the misha cushion foundation that you haven't opened is such an amazing product. i loved it!
I am VERY pale and wear the shade 110 in the Revlon Color Stay Normal/Dry. It is really light, but has a very neutral almost grayish tone. Also, you could always add the custom cover drops to it if its a little light.
ABH foundation stick is for oily skin so I recommend to stay away from it...
Natasa Ma That is what I have heard as well.
I have combo and really like it, I use it with an elf primer and it glides on beautifully
I actually love the way the hourglass stick looks with a black beauty blender. I bounce it and do a bit of swiping, and it looks flawless. I also love it with the Real Techniques expert face brush. I recommend both!
The Morphe M439 works amazingly with the Hour Glass foundation! I use it regularly with that brush and it always looks flawless!
you are right, the elf and it cosmetics are so great. the elf has a gray tone also and is perfect
I am glad to hear I wasn't the only one that had issues with the pro-glow! It oxidized big time with me and I had to mix two to get the best shade.
missha is easy to buy! they have a US website/shipping location
Love your declutter videos!!!!!!
the garnier bb cream is life. I love the one for oily skin and dry skin. the coverage on those for a bb cream is pretty good too.
Tarte buffing brush or ecotools bronzer brush. They are dupes and I feel like it would work amazingly with the hourglass foundation!!!
I love your declutter videos. I think they're my favorite because it really shows what is your best of the best.
Yes I totally agree about the Colorstay! I wear the 250 because the yellow undertone really suits me and I just use a beauty sponge to make it a thinner coverage so it doesn't look so off. I have such an issue finding yellow undertone foundations at the drugstore, and especially ones that work with my super oily skin.
I have the No 7 Airbrush Away foundation in a shade that's really gray and it's amazing! I never would have thought the gray tone would match my skin so well but it does!
I wear the Revlon Colorstay in 150, but it's a little too light and flat, so I add a little Lumi foundation that's too warm/dark. It's the perfect blend- color wise, and formula wise!
I love MISSHA BB cream, and they also added few new shades. I also heard that they coming to Target in 2017 or maybe they already sold in Target. Their skincare is amazing as well.
I can't find anything pale enough for me. I wish we could all hang out and help each other find shades that work!
Allison Lewis I'm the same. I highly recommend the Manic Panic Dreamtone foundation in virgin (white). I found mine at Amazon. I mix it my foundations and I love it. Some people say it causes break outs but my skin is really sensitive and I haven't had a problem. It completely changed my foundation game.
Allison Lewis Shu Umera do great foundations for those of us with off-white skintones
Allison Lewis I have the same problem. There is a pale youtuber that I watch and love. Her user name is ThaaTaylaa and she does super pale foundation and foundation Friday every friday
Tana Brown yes! Taylor is amazing for pale princesses! I adore her even though I'm darker complexion!
Allison Lewis I'm the same. Most foundations are too dark. L'Oréal pro matte is the perfect shade for my ghost skin lol
I have normal to oily skin, particularly in the summer. The IT CC+ cream works well for me. I apply it over clean, bare skin and set it with powder or IT Celebration foundation when I need extra coverage without looking cakey.
The hourglass brush applies all foundation beautifully. It was expensive but 100% worth it!
All those Missha products are also available directly from Amazon in Prime. Comes in 2 days from Amazon...not those funky Amazon sellers. I've had that burgundy tube of BB cream for the last year and I swear it's the best thing ever. Like it even better than the IT Cosmetics CC cream. Similar coverage, similar great skincare ingredients, similar SPF and like half the price. Biggest challenge is that it's a Korean beauty brand, so obviously they are only interested in colors for their demographic. So nothing for people with dark skin tones. Amazon is also GREAT with beauty returns, so if you want to try a shade and don't like it, they will do returns/exchanges so easily.
Yeah. Been waiting for this one. Glued to the screen.
I use the hourglass vanish foundation with my sigma f80- works awesome. if my skin is super dry I spray the brush with a hydrating mist
Taylor Palmer...I do the same thing. But I use the Morphe m439 & spray it w/ fix+. But that brush works perfectly. I also have normal/dry skin.
The flower beauty stick foundation from Walmart is similar to the hourglass , I also love the elf and It cosmetics CCs
Try Sand Beige in the Revlon Colorstay. Also, I love the covergirl clean matte bb cream from the drugstore as well as the garnier bb for combo/oily skin.
I don't know if you have tried the NYX BB cream, but it's my personal favorite. It does a very good job of neutralizing my redness on light makeup days. 😄
I thought this was a great declutter. It shows you've been thoughtful about the foundations you add to your collection to begin with! I remember watching an old foundation declutter of yours and you didn't feel super positive about many of them it's great to see you grow into knowing what you truly want in makeup. Also you were awesome about keeping things for good reason. Foundation is tough because when you find something *right* it's a big deal but you still need to cover your bases as far as coverage levels and seasons etc. where as say blush is easier to let go over because 10 other brands make basically the same one. No two foundations are the same.
I'm sure I've said it before, but I love my L'Oréal Pro Matte and Pro Glow (especially when I mix the 2 together!). I really need to channel Jessica's decluttering skills for my eyeshadows... WAY TOO MANY!
I mix Buff 150 & Sand Beige 180 in Revlon Colorstay. In the winter I do mostly Buff with a dot of Sand Beige and in the Summer I'm just Sand Beige and 50/50 the rest of the time.
I too struggle decluttering my foundations. I think it's our skin changes soooo much with the seasonal changes...The struggle is real, Gurl!
your content just keeps getting better and better!
in the Revlon colorstay I'm near your skin tone & I have 220 & it matches perfectly
I just discovered the L'Oréal lift and blur less than a month ago but it's amazing on me. I have textured skin from severe acne in my teen years and this just works so well for me. So many foundations draw attention to my uneven texture and this just makes the best out of a crappy skin situation. Nothing will ever make my skin smooth outside so laser treatments or something. I loved it so much I ran out and bought more because it was half price at my Rite Aid.
I am so obsessed with these declutter videos.
I have very oily skin but I watch ALL your declutter videos because you actually get rid of a good amount and it prevents me from becoming a hoarder 😅💕
Thank you for mentioning how quickly the cushion foundation runs out! I felt like a crazy person because no one was mentioning that and were just raving about it.
Also the L'Oréal pro glow in Creamy Natural would probably work well for you. It oxidizes on me to be a little darker than my skin tone, but if I blend it on my neck it just makes me look tan.
NYX makes white foundation mixer that makes foundations lighter when you mix it. It works GREAT!
Clinique foundations are actually pretty affordable. The silk one is $25 and some of the drugstore ones are not far off! I do love the silk foundation though! Wish they would've sent you a different color!
You NEED to try the Garner BB Cream, it's amazing gives you a natural glow and a medium ish coverage! Love you x
I love these! You give so much information as to why and why not. You talk about everything in these videos, I can't get enough! Thank you for sharing!
I wear shade 220 in revlon colorstay. It is one of my favorite foundations
Thank you for taking the time to swatch on a declutter video. We have similar skin tones and it is very helpful. I checked out the Boots No 7 foundation after you recommended it in a recent video. Idk about all locations but my local Target had it on clearance. I was hesitant to try something I possibly couldn't repurchase. I have been on the hunt for about a year to find something I really love. Still looking. This was helpful. Thank you!
My favorite drugstore bb cream is the Burt's bees one. Great coverage and stays all day. I love you decluttering videos, they always inspire me to go through my own collection
Don't be too hard on yourself. You don't have to be cut throat all of the time :) Feel good in knowing that you're holding on to things that you truly love and work for you. Hey, if you find yourself not using a couple in the upcoming months you can always re-evaluate your decision and let it go then. The fact that you're pairing down in the first place is an awesome thing for any of us makeup lovers to be able to do. You definitely always do way better than I can even aspire to do.
I also used to wear 150 in revlon colorstay because of the greyish undertone you mentioned, I now wear 180 and I think it's perfect! You might like it also!
The it cosmetics CC+ cream (regular formula) is amazing on oily skin! I use it as a daily foundation and it doesnt make me breakout.
I really enjoy the covergirl bb cream. It's light coverage but I like it because it has spf and it lasts all day. It's more for a natural look. I use it on days that I'm in a rush and don't have time to pat in foundation.
I was just sent an IT cosmetics collection (QVC) that included the IT cushion foundation. It is INCREDIBLE!!! I use a brush instead of the puff that comes with it around my nose and eyes. It looks like I don't even have makeup on, and it feels like my SKiN! For more coverage (or matte look) I use my Laura Geller powder foundation on top. (I also have a terrible time finding my color at Cliniique)
Patricia Barber is
Missha beauty can be purchased at target online in the states! Not sure if it's in stores but I'd love an in-depth review if it is really great!!
I'm loving the IT Cosmetics CC cream too! Right now I'm trying out the Smashbox BB and Tarte's Rainforest of the Sea. I think we're pretty similar in skintone, and I wear the shade 200 nude in the Revlon Colorstay. When you finish your IT CC Illuminator, if you want that same touch of glow, mix something like Becca's Shimmering Skin Perfector with the regular CC. That's what I did today, and I really liked it.
I use the real techniques stippling brush with the hourglass foundation and it works reallly well at least for me
I feel like getting rid of less means that you're also getting better and knowing what you like and buying what you like. Which is a good thing!
Has she ever tried the la girl foundation?
Britney i would like to know this also
Britney mee too
I think she'll like it because they have white mixer too to make a perfect shade for her fair skin
I use Almay Smart Shade for my BB/ CC Cream for the summer. I use 200- Light /Medium. It has a SPF 20 in it & it's so light but covers Great & I have rosacea on my cheeks. I love it!!!
The IT Cosmetics CC Cream works great on oily skin! It lasts about 14-16 hours and does not break down!
204 in the pro glow has that grayish tone, think it would be a good shade match. I use that in summer, 203 in winter, which is more yellow, but with that grey. both would probably work for you!
Great to see you loving my favorite Korean brands - both Missha and Dr.Jart :) I love their products but they sell it more expensive in the States so I end up stocking up on my "necessities" whenever I visit Korea.
Also a little tip when using cushion foundations (anything in cushion in general) the sponges do soak up products but if you keep pouncing on your face even if you think you have put all the product you initially got on the sponge on your face, you will still see something coming out. Those sponges are designed that way (at least as far as I know) so you actually don't need to keep putting the sponge back to the cushion.
Just got the IT CC cream today. I already really like it, and a woman only put it on to see how it would look on me. That combined with the Poreless Pressed Powder, and my face looks really good! I've been really into minimal beauty lately, so this is a repurchase! IT CC is my foundation, anti aging, primer, and sunscreen all in one!
Taylor Williams I agree. I can't spend a lot of money on makeup but I make an exception for the IT Cosmetics CC cream and the Bye Bye pores powder. I buy everything else from the drugstore.....like the ELF eyeshadows.
ill have to check into Elf eyeshadow more, I'm very picky with eyeshadows, but eventually when I'm on my own, I know I cant afford everything midrange. unless I buy it all now while I'm still at home, or save up once I'm on my own.
also, Meekas Momma, would you say the SPF in the It CC is enough to wear on its on?
Taylor Williams Yes, for me it is because I don't spend much time outdoors. I'm indoors most of the time.
I thought it said SPF 50?
I also love the IT cosmetics CC+ cream and just recently bought their tsv on QVC. It had a brand new foundation, confidence in a compact. OMG, I love it even more than the CC cream.
I use revlon in buff and it's a little on the paler side of the yellow undertone and I tend to use a darker blush to help balance
I have the hourglass foundation as well and I use it with the elf ultimate blending brush and I love how it applies ! I definitely recommend giving it a shot :)
They now have the 7 brand at Walgreens !!!! Huge display too.Ohhh if you have a squeeze tube with pump and you want to get the last bit out of an expensive brand just use a pair of scissors and cut a part of the bottom corner and you can end up squeezing a ton out .... Ohhhh use a Q-tip to keep everything sterilized.
by far my favorite videos of yours- I don't know why but your declutters are my favorite
Covergirl clean matte bb cream is absolutely amazing, it got me off going through bottles and bottles of fit me, and its got amazing coverage. Highly suggest.
morphe g8, technically its blush brush, but i have used it with the MUF stick foundation forever, tried it with the hourglass foundation and it looks amazing
I really like the e.l.f foundation but my favorite is the it cosmetics cc+! I know it has those glitters in it but it really works with my extremely dry skin the best.
It's only a bit cheaper, but the Tarte bamboo foundation brush works very nicely with the Hourglass stick foundation. :)
