What powder did you use to set your concealer? I’m so glad you did a flash test with just the foundation and after when your makeup was done! :) I’m trying to find products that doesn’t cause flashback.
You are usually someone shiny in your t-zone by the end of your foundation reviews, but your skin looks perf at the end with this specific one! I'm so curious to try now
I bought the NYX foundation after watching your review and I love it!! I have super oily skin and after a 12hr shift, no touch ups, I'm so happy with it!! My face has always been darker than my neck but I just need to drag it down. And I don't use a primer just loads of moisturizer and SPF.
Your foundation reviews are always so helpful! In particular, I really appreciated this observation you made- You’re not gonna get the: “What skincare do you use?” compliment. You’re gonna get the: “What Foundation do you use?” compliment. Thanks for keepin it real girl! 👍🏼👍🏼
I am super late but...personally (usually combination skin)...the nyx is way more matte. Personally i feel like with the superstay your oils will come through at the end of the day. But the full coverage is way more homogenous/flawless. To get the same coverage everywhere with the nyx i need to put more AND you have to put it by sections bc of how fast it dries. The Nyx will dry your soul and heart out. And i am an oily person. Both look like you have foundation on. Full coverage. Id personally say the perfect balance would be a mix of both. Superstay for the flawless coverage and the nyx for the mattifying side. The nyx is extremely drying and sets in 10 seconds. I feel powders don't blend great afterwards bc of how drying it is. I'd say it's more of a summer foundation.
Personally I liked this better. It's very matte, very full coverage, I have combo skin and I found when I moisturized really well and used a moisturizing primer it looked really nice, and it worked better with a sponge for me.
On me maybelline superstay is not oil-controlling at all...it has a matte finish but feels & ends up oily and heavy compared to other matte foundations I tried(maybelline matte&poreless, EL DW)
I have the exact color (we are foundation twinsies!) and the undertone is actually very olive. If you put it on a white paper it’s almost green. I prefer it to a foundation that’s too orange or too pink but I agree, it’s a little too dark for us.
My friend is an NC42 in the MAC studio fix fluid foundation and she got the same color u're wearing (#11 beige) & it looked great on her. Any way I got this in the next shade up #12. I love it cause I'm super oily. Keeps me matte 8+ hrs!!! However, the primer didn't work out for me so I returned it.
Does anyone know what lipstick she’s wearing? That’s all I kept looking at when she was talking about the end of the day wear test lol. It’s a perfect nude shade and I want it 😩
This foundation lasted so well on you, it looks absolutely stunning after such a long period of time. Gorgeous! Also, which lipstick are you wearing? Such a nice nude!
I saw this at Ulta, and found my shade and the coverage looked pretty good when I swatched it. I always want to try matte foundations, but my skin gets textured easily. I will try this, because the coverage seemed great. One of the foundations I have been using is the Flower Beauty Light Illusion foundation. Probably my new favorite one. It's not matte, but it is lovely :)
@saaammage I am the same exact shade as u girly... now I just wait until u post ur foundation shade... although true beige matched me better it did show a little light but soon when it oxidized it became true to my color idk if u want to try true beige??
I love this foundation but the shades are driving me crazy right now hahah! I thought beige, then maybe medium olive, true beige. Ended up getting neutral buff and it still looks too yellow! I’m the same way and usually get foundations that are more yellow but this one... 🤔
I thought I was the only one experiencing this issue! I can’t find a shade for me. Everything either seems to dark or too light?! Did some oxidize on you?? I ended up getting buff🤷🏽♀️
@@meowyellen Yesss!! I tried many on my hand and all the yellow/peach undertone one's oxidized :ccc I love the foundation because it doesn't crease on me and I love the coverage but girrrlll i look orange asffff
Sam you’re the real mvp of beauty!!! You cut to the chase and I LOVE IT! I’m getting really tired of other youtuber who made a review into a story time video 😑
I bought this today and tried this out! We’re the same shade lol I thought it was very yellow when I applied it but once it started to set in, it went away!
yasss! ive been waiting for this lol Im deff gonna give this a try it seems like it will stay matte for a while and I need something that will keep me from looking greasy
Finally, someone who is actually really oily is reviewing the foundation & primer combo!!! The primer made a noticeable difference IMO. I had the hardest time trying to figure out my shade too! The Ulta/NYX website said one thing, while the Ulta display had all the shades marked with the wrong undertones 😡. I'm hoping I chose the right shade because other reviews seemed to say it dried down darker or oxidized. Did anyone else experience this?
elmariamgibson in Alissa Ashley’s demo video, she said that it would darken as you blended it in. I had a hard time choosing my shade too; based on the descriptions on Ulta’s website, I thought I would be the 5th shade, but once I went into the store and swatched them, I ended up with the 11th shade!
So, I'm older and have somewhat enlarged pores. Do you feel like this foundation would work for me? I'm actually seeing a lessening of the 'crater' appearance, so what I guess I'm asking is do you feel like this foundation would camoflage the slightly enlarged pores issue? Anyone can answer, please
You're correct, the brand name is Nyx---named after the goddess of the night (daughter of Chaos, sister of Gaia, mother of Aether and Hypnos)...it's definitely not N. Y. X., as if it were an acronym. Thank you for your reviews and wear tests. They are always comprehensive and quite helpful.
I flatter myself that I know my Greek mythology, but you just blew me out of the water! Thank you for this learning opportunity! ~Anastacia in Cleveland
Your comment went straight into my teacher's heart, Anastacia, thank you! Nyx is not one of the best known, but once you start exploring her familial lines, you'll recognize a lot of names. Also, in linguistics, you'll find the root nic/nox/noct in words related to "night" ("nocturnal" and "noctambulant" in English, "pernoctar" [to spend the night] in Spanish...) Cheers!
Awww! I'm always up for learning new things. For example, I love documentaries that bore other people to tears, LOL! I have to give the credit to my dear parents (of beloved memory); they made us watch a lot of PBS and encouraged us to read. All the Best to You!
Girrrlll as soon as I heard the name of this foundation I thought of Young Gunz "Can't Stop Won't Stop" 😂 So glad to finally hear your opinions and how it wore on u. I'll be running to Ulta tomorrow to get that bogo deal and try 2 shades 😉
Am from India and searching best foundation for my wedding day, I have subscribed ur channel because ur videos are very useful for every girls, please tell me this shade number
I say NYX as a word too, not each letter. I usually do it because there a nymph in mythology called Nyx, I always assumed that’s who they were named after. :p
It could very well be that they named the brand after this nymph's name. I flatter myself that I know a fair amount of Greek.mythology, but I didn't know there was a nymph named Nyx! Thank you for this learning opportunity! ~Anastacia in Cleveland
Yes, Nyx is the ancient Greek goddess of the night and from what I understood, that is what the makeup brand is named after. It drives me nuts to hear people say it N-Y-X.
Picked up this up today in shade Beige..I kept debating between Beige and Medium Olive. The drug store that carrys this line has very very limited shades...thanks for the review I was waiting for your review
I ordered online and the shade was my summer shade for real so I went to Ulta and got a better chance shade. I have at least 4 possible matches so I’m amazed
SIP YO DRINK OR EAT A BITE OF YO SNACK --- EVERY TIME I SAY "UNDERTONE". Happy Friday Struggle Bus Squad!!!!
P.S I didn't go searching for the lighter shades since this seemed to match by the end of the day.
What powder did you use to set your concealer? I’m so glad you did a flash test with just the foundation and after when your makeup was done! :) I’m trying to find products that doesn’t cause flashback.
I had tried the true beige and it was super yellow too
We’re usually foundation twins and I picked up medium olive it’s almost perfect. For the other twins out there maybe look at medium olive.
I'm a foundation twin and I used medium olive as well :)
You are usually someone shiny in your t-zone by the end of your foundation reviews, but your skin looks perf at the end with this specific one! I'm so curious to try now
I keep hearing it is very make-upE, so I am more interested in the mattifying primer. Didn't know they released a primer with this foundation.
I was thinking the same thing!
I bought the NYX foundation after watching your review and I love it!! I have super oily skin and after a 12hr shift, no touch ups, I'm so happy with it!! My face has always been darker than my neck but I just need to drag it down. And I don't use a primer just loads of moisturizer and SPF.

You should try medium buff!! It's a hint lighter and more golden peachy undertone than yellow.
I just love your personality. The fact that you do great reviews is just a bonus. Keep up the light-hearted attitude my dear. Great job.
I need that foundation finally a yellow under toned foundation.
Can you do a comparison of this foundation vs the maybelline super stay foundation??? Which one do you prefer???
I am super late but...personally (usually combination skin)...the nyx is way more matte. Personally i feel like with the superstay your oils will come through at the end of the day. But the full coverage is way more homogenous/flawless. To get the same coverage everywhere with the nyx i need to put more AND you have to put it by sections bc of how fast it dries.
The Nyx will dry your soul and heart out. And i am an oily person.
Both look like you have foundation on. Full coverage. Id personally say the perfect balance would be a mix of both. Superstay for the flawless coverage and the nyx for the mattifying side.
The nyx is extremely drying and sets in 10 seconds. I feel powders don't blend great afterwards bc of how drying it is. I'd say it's more of a summer foundation.
@@alexiaipaz thanks
so happy how you acknowledge many of your subscribers are your shade!! always great to know what shade you are using, very helpful !!
I tried the nyx stay matte but not flat and it was so oily and never dried but this looks promising. Debating on this or Maybelline superstay
Girl what lip color are you wearing in this video?
I guess we will never know 😭
I think it might be the Nyx Lip Lingerie Push Up Lipstick in the shade Push Up.
How does this compare to the mabeline super stay matte foundation?
Yasss I just commented the same thing !!!
Personally I liked this better. It's very matte, very full coverage, I have combo skin and I found when I moisturized really well and used a moisturizing primer it looked really nice, and it worked better with a sponge for me.
Nancy Gonzalez yes girl im trying to find out because my skin is really oily if you find out let me know ❤
On me maybelline superstay is not oil-controlling at all...it has a matte finish but feels & ends up oily and heavy compared to other matte foundations I tried(maybelline matte&poreless, EL DW)
Super stay is trash
Breaks u out
What’s that lip product you’re wearing? it’s beautiful!!
I have the exact color (we are foundation twinsies!) and the undertone is actually very olive. If you put it on a white paper it’s almost green. I prefer it to a foundation that’s too orange or too pink but I agree, it’s a little too dark for us.
Cat i love your blush/highlight! Such a pretty glow omg
Lisa Chen thanks girl! I don’t remember the blush but prettt sure the highlight was Becca opal 😊
Jessiepink1028 ahh you’re a life saver thanks!!
Im a twinsie too and very late but got true beige. Its perfect. Initially looks too yellow but after few mins its great x
Honestly thank god for your foundation reviews. I would be so lost without them! 🙏
I'm using buff and I think it might be a better shade match for you
Between that foundation and cover fx, which one do you prefer?
the foundation and shade match looks so good in your before and after pictures!
yay you are my foundation twin i was so waiting for this
Can you list of items/makeup u used on your face/lips/eyes?
Thank you
MY husband bought me this foundation at Ulta and it WORKS GREATTTT!!! I adore it!! Looks pretty on you!!
Can you update us on your skincare routine at the moment? The products you're trying out and the frequency etc. (like the retinol)
My friend is an NC42 in the MAC studio fix fluid foundation and she got the same color u're wearing (#11 beige) & it looked great on her. Any way I got this in the next shade up #12. I love it cause I'm super oily. Keeps me matte 8+ hrs!!! However, the primer didn't work out for me so I returned it.
Hi girl. Good review. Can you please mention your nailpolish
Can you use the primer with other foundation and tell us your thoughts?
Does anyone know what lipstick she’s wearing? That’s all I kept looking at when she was talking about the end of the day wear test lol. It’s a perfect nude shade and I want it 😩

Really? Ive been debating whether to buy the shade True Beige, Medium Buff, or Beige? Does it oxidize a lot?
I am a foundation twinzie and True Beige is the perfect match on this foundation.
Daaaaaang i ordered the true beige coz the true beige lady's skin tone matched mine... But when i saw a picture of the foundation it looked so pale..😢
Always love your foundation review. It's definitely one of the best one on UA-cam!
The lip you're wearing in your starting point photos is GORGEOUS! Pleeeeease share details!
Twinsies!! What’s on your cheeks? Love your vids
I love this foundation but the shades are driving me crazy right now hahah! I thought beige, then maybe medium olive, true beige. Ended up getting neutral buff and it still looks too yellow! I’m the same way and usually get foundations that are more yellow but this one... 🤔
michelllea same!! I've tried 5 shades and exchanged 3! I'm over it!
I thought I was the only one experiencing this issue! I can’t find a shade for me. Everything either seems to dark or too light?! Did some oxidize on you?? I ended up getting buff🤷🏽♀️
@@meowyellen Yesss!! I tried many on my hand and all the yellow/peach undertone one's oxidized :ccc I love the foundation because it doesn't crease on me and I love the coverage but girrrlll i look orange asffff
Can you please tell us what shade you are in Too Faced Born This Way foundation and Urban Decay All Nighter foundation for comparison? Thank you!
What eyeliner are you using with your lash extensions?

Would love to know what's on your lips💄and what's on your nails💅🏻!?
Sam you’re the real mvp of beauty!!! You cut to the chase and I LOVE IT! I’m getting really tired of other youtuber who made a review into a story time video 😑
The end product really matched! Looks so much better when everything was put together. Thank you for another review❤️

I have acne and oily skin , you think I can use it without breakout my face?

I bought this today and tried this out! We’re the same shade lol I thought it was very yellow when I applied it but once it started to set in, it went away!

What lipstick is she wearing ?!?😍
yasss! ive been waiting for this lol Im deff gonna give this a try it seems like it will stay matte for a while and I need something that will keep me from looking greasy
Please tell us your lip color
Trying to choose my shade in this was a struggle that I am not use to 🙌. So glad you did this review cant wait to try this!
Wow, I'm so impressed with this foundation! Definitely going to try it!

This what I was WAITING FOR!!!!! I haven't seen as many reviews of this foundation as I though, surprisingly. Glad you did this review ❤️
It’s at cvs. So I don’t think it’s exclusively sold at ulta.
I chose the color buff I think we have similar skin tones it’s more neutral than golden
I need to try this... What shape are your nails loving them.😍
Brenda Sanchez n
Thanks for the review, my foundation twin! It was really helpful. Also, please tell us what your lip color you’re wearing! It’s so pretty on you.

Can u do a comparison on the new drugstore foundations? ❤
Another foundation review knocked out of park!!
And I thought of mileys song lol

The color match looks nice this looks like a good summer foundation might withstand this AZ heat
I’m having such a hard time shade matching myself with this foundation but I do like the formula!

I love your nail polish!
I definitely bought 2. Ended up needing to mix.
Can’t wait. Eating my pizza and watching my fav UA-camr 👌🏼😍

I'm definitely a shade of two darker than you but still so confused! I'm going to need to stop by Ulta and pick up a few!! ❣ your reviews!!

Same here!!!
OKAY buying this foundation 😊 please let us know what lip color you’re wearing!!!
NYX’s website mentioned the skin types this foundation is suitable with and dry is not listed.
Yaaaas nyx is coming thru!!!! Gotta hit up ulta asap.
Am from India and searching best foundation for my wedding day, I have subscribed ur channel because ur videos are very useful for every girls, please tell me this shade number
Girl try the shade "true beige" . It works for me . I have your skin tone .
What is your nails shape?
I say NYX as a word too, not each letter. I usually do it because there a nymph in mythology called Nyx, I always assumed that’s who they were named after. :p

Yes, Nyx is the ancient Greek goddess of the night and from what I understood, that is what the makeup brand is named after. It drives me nuts to hear people say it N-Y-X.
lol yea why would anyone not pronounce it that way...
I think it is because Nyx is usually spelled in all capital letters. We tend to pronounce groupings of all capital letters as the individual.letters.
Yes it is, my friends dog name is Nyx after the mythology goddess of night and this was even before the nyx( the make up brand) got popular lol
Picked up this up today in shade Beige..I kept debating between Beige and Medium Olive. The drug store that carrys this line has very very limited shades...thanks for the review I was waiting for your review
Well, after finally trying this...I am not yellow...I mean Beige...
What color are you in the concealer? :)
Yay! Glad you did this Sam! It looks really beautiful on! Im defo picking this one up girl 💙💙
It looks so good,after so long ❤️
Bought this foundation after watching Jackie Aina's review. I LOVE IT SO MUCH
I ordered online and the shade was my summer shade for real so I went to Ulta and got a better chance shade. I have at least 4 possible matches so I’m amazed
I hope this releases in the uk soon ♡
Yaaaaaassss! I've been waiting for this review! ❤️
