Kimberly X My skin has changed but when it was oily I would use a moisturizing primer and then a matte foundation to help balance it and it worked well.
I noticed when I use primer very sparingly, and just in the oiliest areas, it works better. I used to slather it on, and my face turned in to a slip and slide. Seriously. You could slip and slide down my face.
I LOVE Laura Lee, but I thought I'd mention 3 things that work for me. 1) using oil on oily skin is great. Oil dissolves oil (the like dissolves like theory) and also it keeps your skin from thinking it needs to produce more. I have oily skin and do not use skin care labeled for oily skin. 2) Sunscreen is needed every day!!!! It's the everyday rays (that DO penetrate your car/home windows) that cause the dreaded aging of skin not to mention cancer. Even if you're not noticing the effects now, believe me when you're my age you will. 3) I do not use primers for oily skin. Things that prevent oil usually do the opposite because your skin thinks it needs to produce oil because you are robbing it of moisture. I saw several comments mentioning those primers make things worse and that's why. My favorite is the It Cosmetics Bye Bye Pores primer. Second would be the Hourglass Mineral Veil. I do realize products work different for people, but I thought I'd throw it out there. I spent many years in the cosmetic/skin care industry. Wayne Goss and Angie from Hot & Flashy have great sunscreen videos if anyone is interested.
Thank you for this! I have been having a hell of a time trying to get foundation to look smooth on my skin, I'll have to take all of this in to consideration!
It might be dehydrated. Drink lots of water, eat fruits and vegetables, cut down on salty foods, caffeine, alcohol and nicotine (if you smoke). Don't over exfoliate, avoid alcohol and harsh ingredients like sulfates in your skincare products, use a gel moisturizer during the day and a nighttime moisturizer with hyaluronic acid (or pure hyaluronic acid). Derma E is a really good brand and it's what I use. Also an organic oil like hemp seed oil can help. I know you might be like "Nooo I don't want to put oils on my face!" but it won't make you oily lol. Some people don't get that if you spend all day try to get rid of your natural oils you have to replenish your skin at night. Otherwise your skin is going to go crazy and produce more oils to compensate.
Everyone is talking about how she says "ole" instead of oil but is no one gonna talk about how in the beginning of the video she said howing instead of how
I have this exact problem :( It's too dry in winter, and too oily in summer. But I think cos I've been moving around in different countries a few times for the past 10 yrs, its really affected my skin. That really breaks out a lot :( and can't get used to the weather until a year has gone.
Means your skin is Combination, which is the most common type. It means there are random patched etc or changes. You have to change it up to accommodate the climate change. So you might need to do a different routine in winter than you do in summer. Of course no matter what always drink lots of water (in dryer months up your intake), get adequate sleep, always wear SPF, and most of all don't drink alcohol or smoke! Literally those are the trades to flawless beautiful skin, I always tell People if you don't do anything else do that! =)
Laura!! Neutrogena makes an oil free suncreen, SPF 30, specifically for face!! The focus is not to make you breakout and I LOVE it. After it sinks into my skin I can't feel it's there at all. You don't have to accept a greasy day in order to protect your skin!!
ideenfee very correct I mean they look so different without it it's insane. It cost $150 it's an app. Wayne goss shows the effects of it he goes from looking 40 years old and tired 😴 to 29 and flawless. This technology is disgusting.
I'm so confused on my skin type! My skin is super dry after washing my face but then it gets super greasy throughout the day. So I'm guessing I'm a combination type?
Try different things and see if it works out. Philoderm makes face wash for oily and dry skin using PH and Earth Science Naturals uses the same idea. Time of the year, hormones, and climate make a difference. Moved away from a cold and dry environment (face was oily) to a cool humid climate (face was dry) then back after 5yrs to cold/dry to find makeup regime had to go back for oily skin again x_x Gah! (Artificial heat is bad as much as artificial cooling)
Aliya Charles some oils are good for your face if you use them right -_- do research Argan-oil, jojoba oil, vitamin E oil, and grape seed oil are all great. Some are not even oils it’s hard to explain just research and welcome the worlds natural moisturizers that work
Totally agree with Rachael. I went to the dermatologist and told them the problems i had like urs. They said the face wash that dries out ur skin if u have oily skin will actually trigger something in ur skin that makes u produce even more oils since ur taking those oils out from the face wash. I use the cetaphil face wash for gentle skin and it doesn't dry out my skin but cleanses the excess oils in my face while leaving the good oils (: it works wonders. Also if u have acne and are using a cream that dries out ur acne then that also a factor to excess oil. Anyways. Just some tips from a girl with oily skin
Amanda Howard Exactly! If your skin is oily and you don't use a moisturizer/ hydrate it, it'll only make it worse! Your body will compensate for the lack of hydration by producing even MORE oil!
Amanda Howard Yea I finally found out I have severe dehydrated skin but super oily 😒 I cant figure out what products to use. I cant bake because I have tons of texture! Wtf is wrong with me 😕
Truly Yours I am exactly the same, very oily but very dehydrated- especially on my cheeks. After a lot of trial and error I think I'm finally balancing out. Marula oil has helped my skin and NYX hydratouch primer is good for those dry textured places.
Just tried all these tips today for school and I noticed such a huge difference! My face looked sooo much better by the time I got home. Thanks a bunch!
I'm glad she still looks the same. No fillers or injections. She's one of the few UA-camrs who hasn't gone nuts with injections. She's a natural beauty.
Angie M what mattifying primer do you recommend . I have samples of the becca one , dr brant, and I used the MUFE step 1 but I see my foundation cling and look darker wherever it's applied :(
AshleyrCoello for some reason I read our comment totally wrong and thought all the primers you listed didn't work for your skin😂 but yeah I really like the becca one because it's mattifying and it literally is poreless. It reminds me of the benefit porefessional but not powdery and better at concealing pores !
AshleyrCoello I've actually been using th sample of the MUFE step 1 primer and so far it's okay. I used a pea-sized amount just on my tzone and I don't have that foundation clinging problem 😧 i also use the benefit porefessional matte rescue primer. Nyx angel veil when I'm not really wanting to stay matte for a long time.
I have combination, occasionally dry skin, oily has not been a problem for me yet this far in life, but I still have to watch this video because Laura is life.
I'm so happy you made this video. I used these tips last night and my face looked less oily than it usually does! I did have to blot twice but overall I was very happy! I switched to gel moisturizer and my skin has never been so happy with a moisturizer lol. And I'm learning that less is definitely more.
i use it too!!! its literally life changing for my oily skin, its called cetaphil oil control moisturizer-acne prone skin my dermatologist recommended it to me
Klaudia M The wonders of blurring filters and studio lighting. NO ONE has truly flawless skin... everyone has some sort of imperfections as adults - pores, acne, scars, texture, dry patches, redness, hyper pigmentation. EVERYONE, even Laura.
I know she has the whole package of amplifiers but it's no secret that her skin is actually in a phenomenal state. See her snapchats. I haven't seen her have a single pimple for as long as I've been subscribed.
Hydro boost by neutrogena is a wonderful drug store gel cream! It's $25 Canadian, still a little pricey but a lot cheaper than the ones at sephora and it works beautifully. Also you can get a pack of two at Costco for a lot cheaper!
I love Clinique's gel moisturizer, Dramatically Different. I HATED the lotion version of it, but the gel is really good stuff. Sinks in quick, feels hydrating, some days I don't even use primer, because it's a bit primer like, but not slick and greasy. I get the 4.2 ounce bottle, and it lasts forever and is only $26. I think my last bottle lasted close to a year.
Brenda M you definitely have to use a good primer and a good setting spray. I personally haven't found a great drugstore primer, but a good drugstore setting spray is the Maybelline Master Fix. Hope this helps!😁
My skin is super oily i also moved from the midwest to Arizona...took notes and hoping this helps! New subscriber of LauraLee. Loving the vids so far and appreciate the focus on affordable alternatives as well.
Omg!!! You are my lifesaver, I feel like you are the 1st makeup artist that has showed how to apply makeup on my oily skin! 🙌🏻😭 ily bby girl thanks for the tips💕
When the notification for this video popped up I got super fucking excited because oil was in the title and I know you're going to be saying oil million times and I love the way you say oil and I cannot wait to watch this video 😂😂😂
ugh. no matter what i do, i still get oily as a bacon strip. my face skin is soooo bumpy... well. i'm poor... that;s that, can't buy anything that could help. i have maybelline fit me mat poreless, my sister got me on xmas, but it's too dark for me ;//// *cryingoil*
I have the Fit Me and I don't like it... I actually found that it looks better once the oil starts coming through a little bit, after about 4-5 hours of wear.
skin care is the first thing to combating oily skin! no makeup product will help. cleanse regularly, exfoliate regularly (to unclog pores, which will stop trapping all the oil in there that leads to those bumps), and use a great moisturizer. heck even use oil to moisturize!
Miranda therapy honestly most of them have combination. Meaning it's dry in some areas oily in others, though some might sway to one or the other side. Combination is also 50% of the population. It's the most common skin type. Oily is the best to have, it ages slower, since the oils create a barrier of protection and lubrication. It's a common misconception that just because your skin is oily you'll break out. Dry skin does too, as the dead cells clog the follicles creating infection because there is no drainage. You have 4 Main skin types Combination, Oily, Dry, and Normal(technically once you hit puberty normal skin doesn't actually exists, only in babies and kids, this means your pH is perfectly balanced at a 7.5 which is the pH of most pure water, its not too alkaline(or base) its not too acidic it's just right to to speak) typically if you're drier you're more alkaline, if youre oily you're more acidic. So combination means it varies. So of course through diet and proper skin care you can bring yourself up to or around a 6 or down to and 8 but no adult is ever a perfect 7. Nextly, you have skin subtypes, these are usually other factors that may or may not be correlated with your skin type. These are typically Acne prone (which is also a skin condition), Sensitive or Aged. These are usually caused by environment factors, that add complications into the mix of things, but are treatable and can even be solved through treatments and diet. Then lastly you have actual conditions some are treatable some aren't. Which can be caused by various factors, genetics, hormones, environmental, etc. These are things like your Rosacea, Psoriasis, Telangiectasia, Tinea, the list goes on. Whatever it is there's ways to treat and manage it! The best option is to see an Aesthetician and a dermatologist to find what works best for you, then it's soo much easier to find EXACTLY what you want/need.
I am SUPER oily and I do live in a very hot climate (Texas) I began using the Becca primer and I definitely saw A HUGE difference as I used the Estee Lauder Double Wear foundation as well and yes although I wouldn't get as oily I still did UNTIL I did the loose powder all over my face (after primer and foundation) and dipped my face in Cold war and patted my face dry... it definitely works
Also Clinique Moisture Surge is the BEST moisturzer of all time I have incredibly dry skin and it saves me during the winter. I'm in college and I still buy it every year - it's worth it.
all first aid beauty products from sephora, not sure if ulta has it I'm in Canada and that's the only store that sells it. I just had training on it and I was blown away (I work at sephora)
This helped sooo much! By watching this video I literally realised I'm doing everything wrong!!! My skin is soo oily mainly my nose, I use a wet beauty blender to blend foundation, I use a cream moisturiser that has oil in it, I do clean my brushes just not as often as I should, so I'm changing it all thanks to you🙏🏼 Life saver🙌🏽❤
Laura if you read this, have you ever tried Tarte's Amazonian clay 12-hour full coverage foundation? Literally breaks apart on my skin as I apply it... so frustrating!
that happened to me too!!! it patched up on me almost like it was too dry, i tried using a hydrating primer under (hangover RX) then used a damp sponge and it made it alittle better
Lily Sanchez I use a foundation for normal to dry skin and then use translucent powder to set and setting spray and that works best for me because I have dry skin at first then get oily.
Wait...do you have oily skin or not? I would rather get advice from someone who has oily skin all year round and has actually tested different techniques and products. Some of the products you used actually make me more oily. 😑
really really helped me , i needed help with distinguishing the foundation and the primer and all , and the order . You also helped me for a natural oil free look , tysm !
I use the Clinique foundation everyday and it starts out matte and I will get shiney relatively quickly. but I also don't do all these steps before and if you just powder it's manageable in my opinion and the affect foundation gives I love it!
OMG this is my first time looking at one of your videos!! I've got to say hands down one of the best UA-cam personalities I've seen in a while. you had me laughing the whole time
OILY FAM WHERE YOU AT??
Molly Anderson 🙋🏽😩
Molly Anderson 😷👌
Molly Anderson 🙆Present
ayyyyy we here yall
Molly Anderson RIGHT HERE
Yes but like...... school kind of had its own atmosphere and makes my skin oily no matter how much powder I be puttin on my face
Zoey Garcia I can relate
this is the most accurate thing i’ve read
Zoey Garcia omggg samee gurll!!
Zoey Garcia sammmme
Honestly thought i was the only one 💀
does anyone else get twice as oily when you use an oil control primer!?!?
Carrot Bread sometimes if you try becoming so matte your skin tries to produce more oils because it feels so dried out.
Yeah! Some times you are best to go for moisturisers and dewy foundations to balance your skin out!
Kimberly X My skin has changed but when it was oily I would use a moisturizing primer and then a matte foundation to help balance it and it worked well.
Julian Jackson Thats a good shout! Might give that a bash myself. Oily skin is the bane of my life hahaha!
I noticed when I use primer very sparingly, and just in the oiliest areas, it works better. I used to slather it on, and my face turned in to a slip and slide. Seriously. You could slip and slide down my face.
OLE FREE
at first i didn't really like her, but after watching a couple of her videos she has really grown on me!

crazymnky99 why didn't you like her

I’m in that process then. Because her voice is very screechy and it’s making me go insane but herself as a person doesn’t seem too bad
How do you make your highlight last all day bc my fades away in like an hour???🤔🤔
Vicky Monterroza what highlight do you use?
Vicky Monterroza
SAME
aleeh maidenn Tarte pro glow
Vicky Monterroza I use a damp beauty blender to make it last all day! Makes it a little more blinding too 💁🏼✨
make sure you are setting your face hun, I personally use a brush from morphe I'm not sure what the name is but a fan brush never works for me

Carey C so what your telling me is to stay away from any face primers that are mattifying or anything that has to do with controlling your oils
Thank you for this! I have been having a hell of a time trying to get foundation to look smooth on my skin, I'll have to take all of this in to consideration!
Carey Coconut oil, aloe and apple cider vinegar took away my bumpy red skin and oily foundation. C: I love my grocery store haha
Thank you. I’m going to try some of these tips. Makes perfect sense
you should do best oily and dryskin moisturizers
Fuck Flux she actually has said she gets dry at times:)
Fuck Flux chances are she knows someone that has set skin
bruh check out a Clinique counter. Their products are amazing and can really be specialized to your personal skin type!
What I don’t understand is my nose gets dry and peels but it’s oily as heck at the same exact time. Wtf is wrong with my face
It might be dehydrated. Drink lots of water, eat fruits and vegetables, cut down on salty foods, caffeine, alcohol and nicotine (if you smoke).

Hi Laura 💕
hey girly pop
Laura Lee baby girl what mascara are you wearing?
hiiii laura!
I get oily no matter wtf I use lol... NOTHING helps
Nessa H Same
Nessa H drink more water! That saved me! Also baking!!! And you can use oil sheets too.
Nessa H same, no powder,foundation,primer, setting spray keeps me matte lmao primer makes me the mostt oily!
Try changing your diet!!
Bunny Snow maybe she is eating right you don't know ! Stop being rude .
Water and oil don't mix... a damp beauty blender won't make you oily. And oily skin can still be dehydrated. Hydrated skin produces less oil.
Amanda Howard Exactly! If your skin is oily and you don't use a moisturizer/ hydrate it, it'll only make it worse! Your body will compensate for the lack of hydration by producing even MORE oil!
Amanda Howard Yea I finally found out I have severe dehydrated skin but super oily 😒 I cant figure out what products to use. I cant bake because I have tons of texture! Wtf is wrong with me 😕
guys clinique makes a really good gel moisturizer I also have super oily skin, I highly recommend it :) I been using it for like 2 years
Truly Yours I am exactly the same, very oily but very dehydrated- especially on my cheeks. After a lot of trial and error I think I'm finally balancing out. Marula oil has helped my skin and NYX hydratouch primer is good for those dry textured places.

i love lauras tutorials because i go for warm, bronze, nude, burgundy colors

Primer and baking. Mattifying products. My makeup stays on 12+ hours at work. I blot 1-2x using the toilet seat covers 😂
Angie M what mattifying primer do you recommend . I have samples of the becca one , dr brant, and I used the MUFE step 1 but I see my foundation cling and look darker wherever it's applied :(
AshleyrCoello aw I love the becca one, that's the one I would've recommended to you!

SnapChat most certainly DOES have filters.

I use the Clinique gel moisturizer too. Love that stuff!
right now at Shoppers they have the jar of hydro boost and a tube with SPF 15 in it for $20!!!! 😍😍😍😘
Girl you don't even need foundation your skin is so perfect tf 😭
Some of us girls need to pack on that coverage
Love your humor just for that I subscribed. Thank you for keeping things light makeup is nerve wrecking enough.
my skin is dry as the sahara desert yet I'm still here cause it's Laura 😂❤️️
Is it just me or does the maybeline fit me matte + poreless doesn't help much with oily skin :(
Brenda M I have to use a good primer with it. Loreal pro matte works best for me.
Brenda M you definitely have to use a good primer and a good setting spray. I personally haven't found a great drugstore primer, but a good drugstore setting spray is the Maybelline Master Fix. Hope this helps!😁
Brenda M the infallible foundations by L'Oréal is a great foundation for oily skin
Brenda M use Milani primer and setting spray. Works like magic ❤️❤️🦋👑
It didn't stay on very well for me either.
you should do a video or something on how you prevent your foundation from settling into your smile lines :)
Yeah, it's surprising that I'm only 17 but it already happens. Help me Laura.

thank you! like every youtuber has dry skin! I get so frustrated
mirandatherapy lol I feel like every youtuber has oily skin😂
Miranda therapy honestly most of them have combination. Meaning it's dry in some areas oily in others, though some might sway to one or the other side. Combination is also 50% of the population. It's the most common skin type. Oily is the best to have, it ages slower, since the oils create a barrier of protection and lubrication. It's a common misconception that just because your skin is oily you'll break out. Dry skin does too, as the dead cells clog the follicles creating infection because there is no drainage. You have 4 Main skin types Combination, Oily, Dry, and Normal(technically once you hit puberty normal skin doesn't actually exists, only in babies and kids, this means your pH is perfectly balanced at a 7.5 which is the pH of most pure water, its not too alkaline(or base) its not too acidic it's just right to to speak) typically if you're drier you're more alkaline, if youre oily you're more acidic. So combination means it varies. So of course through diet and proper skin care you can bring yourself up to or around a 6 or down to and 8 but no adult is ever a perfect 7. Nextly, you have skin subtypes, these are usually other factors that may or may not be correlated with your skin type. These are typically Acne prone (which is also a skin condition), Sensitive or Aged. These are usually caused by environment factors, that add complications into the mix of things, but are treatable and can even be solved through treatments and diet. Then lastly you have actual conditions some are treatable some aren't. Which can be caused by various factors, genetics, hormones, environmental, etc. These are things like your Rosacea, Psoriasis, Telangiectasia, Tinea, the list goes on. Whatever it is there's ways to treat and manage it! The best option is to see an Aesthetician and a dermatologist to find what works best for you, then it's soo much easier to find EXACTLY what you want/need.
My skin type is very dry but I watched this anyway because I love you Laura and I can't skip one video to watch that you post 😂😂
Inside and out Beauty
mine too! I suppose that we would be under combination skin lol.
I am SUPER oily and I do live in a very hot climate (Texas) I began using the Becca primer and I definitely saw A HUGE difference as I used the Estee Lauder Double Wear foundation as well and yes although I wouldn't get as oily I still did UNTIL I did the loose powder all over my face (after primer and foundation) and dipped my face in Cold war and patted my face dry... it definitely works
HOW DOES SHE KNOW WHAT I NEED IN MY LIFE , girl i love you
She's so over dramatic about everything and it kind of drives me crazy but on the same time she's really helpful
Can you do products good for dry skin
KathleenLights is the queen of dry skin products if you haven't checked her out!!!
Also Clinique Moisture Surge is the BEST moisturzer of all time I have incredibly dry skin and it saves me during the winter. I'm in college and I still buy it every year - it's worth it.
Fuck Flux she actually does get dry often she says.
Ayesha K ive heard that the hangover fx is good
all first aid beauty products from sephora, not sure if ulta has it I'm in Canada and that's the only store that sells it. I just had training on it and I was blown away (I work at sephora)
her natural skin is so beautiful
I have never heard someone in the south say oil like that ....
Kara Wimbs well now you have
Me either and I'm in Texas
Mari Curls I'm from Texas too, but this is more in the Alabama/Mississippi area
Also, watch Cars 3. Even Tow Mater says OHL.
I'm from South Carolina and everyone here says ole. No one says oil here. Maybe it's not just a southern thing but a state thing too...
This helped sooo much! By watching this video I literally realised I'm doing everything wrong!!! My skin is soo oily mainly my nose, I use a wet beauty blender to blend foundation, I use a cream moisturiser that has oil in it, I do clean my brushes just not as often as I should, so I'm changing it all thanks to you🙏🏼 Life saver🙌🏽❤
Where all my southern girls at?!?!
nina31601 Present! I say oil the same way as she does too. I have to think about saying it right lol
Sarah Walker 🙋🏼🙋🏼🙋🏼🙋🏼 I say oil the same way she does too!
nina31601 🙋🏼🙋🏼🙋🏼
🙋🏼🙋🏼🙋🏼
Taylin McNeely lol!!! I think it's just the southern way!

Jennifer Davila
This video has changed my life. Omg you've answered so many of my questions! Thank you!
I'm already loving this video 30 seconds in because I love how she says "oil" !! xxx
Laura if you read this, have you ever tried Tarte's Amazonian clay 12-hour full coverage foundation? Literally breaks apart on my skin as I apply it... so frustrating!
TabithaAdamMUA I have problems with that one too!! It never completely dries down on me for some reason
mady isnt here same here! For a while I hated Shape tape because I thought it was the problem until I realized it was the foundation. Come on tarte!!
TabithaAdamMUA I have it too and it does the same for me! That and the too faced born this way just don't work at all for me.
that happened to me too!!! it patched up on me almost like it was too dry, i tried using a hydrating primer under (hangover RX) then used a damp sponge and it made it alittle better
I really like that foundation but it's sooo thick
What if you have combination skin? I get dry patches after baking and oily skin after a couple of hours.
Lily Sanchez I use a foundation for normal to dry skin and then use translucent powder to set and setting spray and that works best for me because I have dry skin at first then get oily.
Julian Jackson thank you so much!
Lily Sanchez I find that if I look 'dry' after baking , using a setting spray helps it look less dry and hydrated . Just a tip :)
AshleyrCoello Thank you! ☺️
this happens to me too and it got patchy after baking try the RCMA no color powder its good for dry skin when baking and is affordable
Slay
Laura is so funny and adorable. She's always making me laugh! Most definitely my favorite makeup guru on UA-cam. I always take her advice on makeup!
You're freckles are amazing! And I love your channel! My new addiction to watch!
Can you this video but with drugstore products please please please.
i set my makeup with a ton of powder and within the next hour my face is tacky again
1:45 you'll thank me later....
Ty @lauralee I love how to videos! Reviews are fun but when you can't get your canvas right nothing else matters!
your natural skin is amazing!
Girl I say oil the same way 😂 #SouthernRaised
You are sooo beautiful like if you agree x
I would love if you could check out my channel!!
Oley skin I'm dead
Thank you!!! There are some UA-cam gals that need to watch you spitting truth!
I love how in-depth this is
My lil southern belle
Olly Murs
Wait...do you have oily skin or not? I would rather get advice from someone who has oily skin all year round and has actually tested different techniques and products. Some of the products you used actually make me more oily. 😑
I LITERALLY JUST FOUND YOUR CHANNEL AND I ALREADY LOVE YOU SO MUCH OMG HOW COME I STUMBLED UPON YOU JUST NOW
Legit first person that made this so easy. Thank you so much
your teeth are looking awesome!!
My nose,forehead,chin,and cheeks (basically my whole face) gets SUPER oily 😭😭help meh
😂😂😂😂😂. We southern girls don't talk funny. Everyone else does!
oil.... oyl...
uh...
I say oil and I was raised in the south😂
As soon as I heard how she said "oil" I knew she was southern! Same way I say it lol
really really helped me , i needed help with distinguishing the foundation and the primer and all , and the order . You also helped me for a natural oil free look , tysm !
I use the Clinique foundation everyday and it starts out matte and I will get shiney relatively quickly. but I also don't do all these steps before and if you just powder it's manageable in my opinion and the affect foundation gives I love it!
I really like her, but her voice is grating.
앙 앙 you get used to it trust me! 😂 I used to despise her voice but now I'm used to it and I even think it's cute! lol
Fashioň wøRľd no fuck off
앙 앙 fuck offf
whenever i use the make up forever stick foundation i get twice as oily
I'm from Texas and we all say oil the same way! ❤️
Shaun Allen i wish people in my town said it that way! i'm the only one and i always get made fun of for it
Texas is pretty big tho in Dallas and Austin we don't say it like that
Well I’m from East Texas about 3 hours from Dallas
I say it like that and I'm west of Dallas lol
Im from Texas. I don't say it like that.
This is the first time I'm watching any of your videos and I just fell in love ❤️💙
First helpful foundation video I've ever watched!
I'm a chemistry teacher born and raised in Savannah, Ga and my students had to teach me how to properly pronounce IRON. 😂😂
I love the way she says oil😂
1000 people just can't tame their oily face.
I use magnesium milk after my moisturizer and let it dry and it completely works for me and it makes my foundation last all day ! You should try it
YOUR LASHES ARE GOALS! I LOVE IT!
every time you say oily in this video I think of Karen's (iluvsarahii) dog Ollie lol
Can u make a video explaining the difference between foundation bb cream cc cream etc.?
dreamer02 go to Mia's channel... (Beauty from within) formerly (Asian Beauty Secrets)
