The Chanel water fresh tint is truly magic!! I am almost out of my first one and I will definitely be repurchasing. It’s truly undetectable, and even though it is so sheer, it absolutely evens out my tone and makes my skin look nicer
Absolutely. It always makes me feel really good about my skin haha it’s the ultimate “my skin but better” product
I love the fenty skin tint. The finish is beautiful. It’s so easy to apply like zero streaks etc
agreed, a lovely everyday product!!
The Prada one is absolutely amazing!!! Obsessed
It looks delightful!!! Can’t wait to try it out
Ugh love this kind of video, just a lil collection exploration!!
So fun! I love watching these types of videos too
Shiseido self refreshing foundation in my absolute favorite! I just picked up the Ciele skin tint and am so excited to try it!
Please keep me posted on how you like the Ciele! Super curious about it too
This is such a good video thank you for blessing us with your knowledge! The fenty skin tint is on my wish list for sure. I have bought 3 foundations this year and excited about all of them. I got the dior face and body again, the mufe reboot which I love the feeling of, and the Mac face and body as well. I am on a foundation ban till I finish the super old fenty pro filter hydrating foundation which isn't my favourite but I am determined to say adios to this year. I love to mix my matte ones with a dewy primer so they don't lose their radiance. I am really wanting to get into more skin tints but am content to just work with what I have right now. Oh and the Armani Neo nude is gorgeous as well. That one is probably the one I want to focus on once I finish my fenty.
Love that you’re happy and excited about your foundation purchases this year. It’s such a good feeling finding products that work 😃 thank you for sharing!
Love your foundation round up! Right now I'm using byterry serum foundation and sheer expert!❤
By Terry sheer expert was such a fave of mine!!
Thank your for the foundation roundup, so interesting to see different preferences. I am combination as well and during this summer oilier than ever before. My go to's were the Chantecaille anti aging tint for an easy daily look on top of my Hydropeptide sunscreen, for more perfection the KGD Moisture Foundation, CdP Radiant Cream Foundation and Sensai Luminous Sheer tint (amazing). I just reordered my OG / HG KGD Acqua Foundation - this took the spot of the luminous Silk foundation as a "healthy" option without alcohol and perfumes. Come fall, i will reach out to my LaPrairie Foundation, so luxurious and perfecting. My no buy ended and with my small budget until YE I purchased the Prada Foundation.... The color is off (way too light) with LN25 on my light to medium skintone. The undertone leans peachy which is very good. Not so sure I like the finish as everyone is raving about it.... It slips and slides on top of sunscreen. I will have to test it with primers to see how it works. Not giving up just yet, as fall/winter is yet to come and my skin will get lighter eventually. 😂
Thank you for sharing your favorites and your experience with the Prada! LN25 and MN45 were the shades I was trying to decide between. I hope you’re able to get it to work with the right base prep - although it’s frustrating when you get a new foundation and it just doesn’t work on top of your usual routine. It ends up making you reach for it less because it’s fussy! the KGD Acqua has been on my wishlist for years I think once I use up my current bottle of Luminous Silk I will finally buy and try that one
There isn't really a foundation on my radar right now which is surprising. I am completely in love with the Muf foundation though. It's so perfect!!! I pulled out my Merit foundation stick you reminded me so thank you!
It’s a good thing that you’re not tempted by anything new and you’re enjoying what you currently have ❤️
I'm a fellow foundation enthusiast (and hoarder 😅), and I've loved your videos for years ! I'm so tempted by the new Prada foundation, Kackie raved about it and now it's on my wishlist. Currently, I'm rotating between the Nars Light Reflecting, the Nars Tinted moisturizer and the Dior Backstage (I'm using it sparingly though because I'm weary of the reformulation 🧐).
The Prada foundation looked SO good on Kackie!!
Loved this video Sandra. My go to foundation at the minute is the Hourglass veil tint along with the merit foundation stick. Glossier’s new foundation is on my wish list. I had a look at the prada foundation online but think it’s going to be too hard to shade match. They could provide better shade descriptions…
Absolutely - and the photos are hard to tell from online. The lighting is odd
Fave everyday right now is Dior Skin Correct concealer on center of face as foundation. Wishlist is Westman stick foundation, have never pulled the trigger!
Lovely choices thank you for sharing 😍
That was great, thank you Sandra.❤My every day base is Fenty- thanks to you😉, realy like it. I like Make up Forever and Shiseido Synchro Skin Self-refreshing tint. I had the founddation from Shiseido but the tint works better for me. After watching this round up I would like to try Merit stick🤔
Ooh need to look into the shiseido synchro skin tint! I keep forgetting about it. They’re launching a new “Revitalessence Skin Glow” foundation too that seems interesting but perhaps geared more towards drier skin
Finally bought the Chantecaille Future Skin after looking at it in stores for years. I never bought it because I didn't like using a foundation I had to scoop out with a spatula. I finally succumbed to all the good things I heard about it. Alas, I realized that everytime I wore it, a big hard pimple would appear in 24-48 hours even though I have generally good skin and am way past menopause. With some help from some skincare sleuths on an old style skincare bulletin board, I came to the conclusion that an algae, lamanira saccharina it contains is what is causing the breakouts. Wish I had figured this out when I was still in the window where i could return it. By the way, I liked the finish but I have other sheer to medium coverage foundations I like just as well. Lately, I've been wearing Surratt Dew Drops almost non-stop.
Great that you found the culprit for the breakouts!!
You should try the Caliray skin tint!!
My go to foundation is the Haus Labs foundation…you definitely need to try it!
I really do. It looks wonderful!
Hi Sandra my favorite finish on s foundation is Armani Luminous Silk. As I have combo skin it works better for me in cooler months. Danessa Myricks balm works well for me in the summer. On my wishlist is Danessa Myricks skin tint and the new MAC Radiance Serum foundation. The reviews I've watched so far habe been pretty good. Have a great weekend.
Thanks for watching and sharing your faves!!
Hello Sandra. My all time favorite foundation is discontinued and it is the Physician formula the healthy foundation.. It does not smell or act weard so I sill use it and I have a backup of it. Otherwise, my top five are : NARS Light reflecting, Shiseido Synchro skin, Dior forever skin glow, Merit stick foundation and my full proof summer in Tuscany 40 celcius degree and up is Erborian BB cream mixed with the Chanel water tint. I have on my wish list the Glossier Strech foundation, Koh gen do aqua foundation, Jane Iredale powder foundation. Voilà! Thank you for the video.
Love this thank you for sharing!!
We tend to wear similar foundation shades besides the Armani. I wear 5.75!!! Now I’m going to check out your shade .
3.5 is a newer shade addition so it hasn’t always been in the lineup. Hope it works for you too!
My fav foundation is the Luminous Silk and I'm also a 3.5! Right now I've been mixing it with MUFE HD skin, but I'm actually doing that b/c I don't love the MUFE on its own. I do like mixing LS with random other foundations b/c I feel like it always makes any other foundation look more skin like! And I've just never seen a better foundation that looks so good up close and in sunlight.
I've heard good things about the Fenty skin tint but I'm a little worried it will be too light of coverage for me. I've always wanted to try the Armani cushion but alas, not available. Have you tried the Pat Mcgrath Sublime Perfection?? That's prob the one I'm eyeing the most after watching Karima Mckimmie talk about it.
i agree luminous silk is so good for mixing with stuff! i tried the PMG foundation but it didn't wow me to be honest. i used it up but it wasn't amazing enough for me to repurchase it.
The Chanel water fresh tint is the ONLY foundation I have right now. I love love love it. I don't even want to try anything else at the moment. Interesting tidbit on products for travel. Earlier this summer I flew in Canada a number of times and each time the security person told me that my cream products (like a stick concealer) are considered liquid. I had too many liquids as a result. I asked what changed since I've traveled with solid concealers (and foundations in the past) with no problem. They told me the definition has expanded to "spreadable". No issues with TSA in the US with the same products.
That’s so interesting!! I’ve recently flown within Canada too and have had zero problems with creams/sticks, they barely even looked at my ziploc bag of liquids.
Givenchy prisme Libre + their concealer and Chanel water tint are my top picks at the moment, but I’m also trying to go through a million tinted moisturizers and concealers that I keep purchasing.
I love the Givenchy Prisme Libre concealer so much, now I’m thinking if I should try the foundation too at some point 😄
@@ttsandraI bought the Prisme Libre concealer based off your recommendations. I actually bought a green color corrector as I am an olive like you and I find that it just blends in nicely ☺️ I am excited to try it as an all over foundation!
This was a very helpful video.
Glad it was helpful!
Loving the Danessa Myricks Yummy Skin Tint these days! Looks great all day with my dehydrated oily skin. Super curious about the Prada foundation & its finish, some have said it’s matte while others say it’s skin like (which I’d prefer!). Like you, not sure on a shade … LN25 or maybe the fist medium one but would be afraid it’s too dark. 🤞 it’s in stores before next year!
Really want to try the Danessa Myricks now! what shade do you use? And yes I’m thinking between LN25 and MN45 in the Prada but hoping to see it in person if I can
@@ttsandra I’m in 4 and it’s a pretty good match - shade match said 5 but was definitely too dark. Yep - what I’m debating between too! So hard to pick online. Have a great week Sandra ❤️
I learned a lot from this video. I’m going to do a sheer foundation. What concealer would you use to conceal pigment
The Givenchy Prisme Libre concealer is my current favorite! also love the NARS soft matte complete concealer
I tried the Blunder foundation balm & it was very heavy... I much prefer the Salt New York sneaky balm, it feels very light.
Yeah it’s def not the right kind of product for me and my skin type 😄😄 that’s what I get for making an impulsive purchase
Hi Sandra, the Lisa E. foundation in shade 9 is also my perfect shade, but same as you I could not make it work for me. I wish Lisa would release a lighter coverage/skin tint in the same shade range 😊 My current base fave is the Givenchy Prisme Libre concealer that I use all over 👌 I have dry skin so I would be curious about the new Danessa Myricks Yummy Skin Tint. Thanks for a great and useful video as always ❤
The Givenchy Prisme Libre concealer is so so good as a base!! I love using it too. I’m very curious about what kinds of products Lisa will launch next in the complexion range, we will have to wait and see 🥰
@tinanatechannel, I also have dry skin and just got the Givenchy color correctors and concealer, then put the YummySkin on top. Magical! Give it a whirl, I’m amazed at how great my skin looks with this combo. 😊
@@MaryintheCLE love the sound of that!! so happy that you found a set of products that work well for you and make you feel your best. that's what it's all about!
I’m so curious about Glossier as well and if it compares to Chantecaille since they are both gel, I’d love to save money on Chante-high💸💸🤑. Lol. For every day, Westman and the new reformulated Dior Backstage are my GOATs.
to me it looks like Glossier might have a touch more coverage but in a nice way! plus the pump packaging makes it a lot more convenient than the jar... Chante-high LOL you made me laugh with that one. so true though!!
Ageing formerly oily now probably normal (summer) to dehydrated skin, like light to maximally medium coverage: spent the summer with Westman Atelier stick and skin tint foundations (depending on weather and occasion), love both and will repurchase, just bought Hourglass veil skin tint and have been using out most days, love, also in collection, old faves Nars Tinted Moisturiser and Laura Mercier oil free TM, but I think they are both trumped by the Hourglass, Charlotte Tilbury Beautiful skin: in the end too makeup-ey, Lisa Eldridge: too full coverage, even with all her sample cards I bought two and neither is ever my shade (mixed race skin with great shade variation between summer and winter), hated Chanel water fresh tint (probably they don't have a shade for me either LOL). Am not eyeing anything, so happy with Hourglass and WA!!!
Love that you found new staples that work for you!! it’s the best feeling. thank you for sharing your faves ❤️
I know you love your high-end foundations (totally get it; I'm dying to try a few!), but you know how it is with parent companies and the formulas between that of said parent companies and the high-end brands... minor tweaks. All that being said, I wanted to recommend you try the L'Oreal Infallible 24Hr. Fresh Wear in the shade 425 Linen. We're pretty much shade twins; I may have slightly more olive to my skin. Light to medium coverage, imo, but buildable, natural finish.
I always recommend people bring their current perfect match foundation from home in their purse to the drugstore, and then compare foundations side by side to get the perfect shade match. I think Linen is your shade regardless. It has been my favourite since it released.
I pump some to the back of my hand and swipe a bit onto forehead first, each cheek, nose and chin, then apply with a dampened sponge (that's also been further squeezed out in a towel) for a more sheer coverage. I often even dilute it 50% with something like a moisturizing "primer" (which is really just a moisturizer- it's handy because it's in a tube). I'm not camp primer for most people; I believe in good skin prep.
You may be a convert, Sandra... ;)
I loved the L’Oréal infallible pro matte foundation for years so I’m definitely curious!! especially knowing that you found a decent shade match so thank you for the suggestion 😍😍
Your comparison between the LisaEldridge foundation and the toxic ex-boyfriend that calls you in the middle of the night was so funny 😂 I am finnishing my Nars tinted moisturizer at the moment, and I am interested in the new hourglass skin tint to replace it. I would love to try Merit but it is hard to get here. Those stick foundations look so nice.
The hourglass tint looks lovely you’ll have to let me know how you like it once you end up trying it 🥰
Currently trying the new formulation of Dior backstage- it’s been a while since I tried the original but this one steers more satin-matte than a truly satin skin like finish. Honestly it’s been great in humid Houston. Also feeling the desire to try the new glossier foundation but none of their skin products truly were light medium olive. So they lack of a correct shade might be enough to keep me away…
Ok yeah a friend did a try on yesterday with the light olive shade and it pulled quite yellow on her still. Would Definitely wait to see the glossier shades in person once they’re stocked at sephora. What shade do you use in the Dior? So far from feedback I’ve gotten, most people say the reformulated version is more luminous than the original!
@@ttsandra I’m currently wearing 2WO and it’s not a perfect match but it’s pretty close. I have dry to very dehydrated skin so it’s possible that for my skin type it’s just pulling more matte than something I need 😅 Finally a reformulation that I want to wear 😭
I always enjoy your complexion videos so so much!
Full disclaimer: I start freelancing for the Mall of America Chanel Fragrance and Beauty Boutique this weekend but I do NOT earn commission so I’m sharing my take on items of which I’ve been trying samples to inform my product knowledge so that I may best help folks.
My favorites (that I’ve tried thus far): 1) ULTRA LE TEINT Ultrawear All-Day Comfort Flawless Finish Foundation (great natural matte finish and long wear on my combo/oily skin, especially on humid summer days or under stress if I sweat).
2) N°1 DE CHANEL REVITALIZING FOUNDATION (My go-to in fall and winter this past year - light-medium skin-like coverage with a touch of dew.)
I applied to work at Chanel because their foundations are the only ones I’ve found that consistently don’t pool in the pores on my nose. A very specific litmus test but it’s my North Star and I’m just happy to have confidence as a consumer finally!
Your two Chanel pics are on my to-try list and I’m excited to play. ❤
Yay can’t wait to chat more Chanel beauty with you going forward!!!
@@ttsandra Same! 💞
Good luck with your new job! 🎉
@@sheebs74 Thank you! 💞
This summer I have pretty much using the Tower 28 Sunny days tinted SPF, Dr. Jart BB Premium balm and Estee Lauder Double wear sheer. I also love Dior sheer glow and the matte formula. I'm looking for a good stick foundation that's good on normal skin with an oily T-zone. Any suggestions? Isn't there a new Laura Mercier foundation? Anyway, thanks for the roundup and the issues you had with the formula's. Very helpful.
the merit stick would be good to try! I also hear really good things about the Basma stick foundation but I haven’t tried it yet. another suggestion would be the Lancome teint Idole stick foundation if you’re looking for more coverage
Thanks for your suggestions. I've already had the Lancome stick twice in different shades and can't seem to get the perfect shade. I've been curious about the Basma too. I want a medium coverage.@@ttsandra
Are you going to try the new Fenty stick version of Eaze Drop?
I might at some point but I’m not in a hurry! I need to go see it in store in person first I think 👀
I went to Lisa Eldridge shop and got shade cards with samples on. I tried everything to get them to look good, I felt like I had kaolin white mask on my face, I prepped my skin to the heavens, not fit me, my favourite of all time is Cle De Peau liquid radiant, it is expensive but you use do little and at 66 I can honestly say it takes years off, skin is beautiful
Thanks for sharing - the cle de Peau radiant is also on my never ending wishlist haha I had the cushion version of it before and loved it. Sad to hear the Lisa Eldridge didn’t work for you either!!
There are a lot of people it doesn’t work for, if you keep your eye on look fantastic they sometimes have money off
,I bought 3 different t colours before I got it right. I will sell the ones I have still in boxes
Have you tried missha bb cream? If so, did you like it? :) And what about bareminerals original powder foundation? So curious 🤔Love your videos 🔥
I’ve tried both loose and pressed bare minerals powder foundations! the loose one gave me hives, the pressed was lovely but i didn’t reach for it often as I prefer liquid foundations. Tried the missha years ago and I remember the shade pulling really grey on me. Not sure if they have more shades now, I probably ordered the wrong one lol
@@ttsandra thank you! I believe missha still has 5 shades though... 🙈
I can’t get my Armani creme foundation anywhere in US. If I do find it somewhere there are only very dark shades available. Haven’t found a substitute any suggestions? Only product that covers redness without looking heavy
Which crème foundation do you mean? The power fabric balm?
@@ttsandra the one I loved was not a cushion it came in a jar. Not the same as you showed in video. Sorry for the confusion
@ttsandra, help me please! What would you recommend as a substitute for the old formula Dior Backstage Face and Body foundation? The new one is not that good for oily skin, sadly :(
I am SO upset about the reformulation of Dior Backstage. Makeup Forever HD Skin is what I’m using instead but the shade range skews a bit yellow - the finish is the same though, satin skin-like finish, and the longevity is great. I’m also curious about trying the new reformulation of Dior forever matte - it’s more coverage than Dior backstage but I’m thinking that if used in a small amount and sheered out it can do a similar thing
@@ttsandra Thanks for the recommendation, I’ll go for the MFE HD skin then :)
I was actually eyeing the Givenchy Prisme Libre Matte foundation, but that one seems really full coverage to me, based on the reviews. Have you tried that one?
@@Szeszmongoose I haven’t tried it!! it does seem to have a bit more coverage but again you can easily just do 1 pump and sheer it out for a more subtle look. it looks really good and I’d love to try it next at some point (I also want to try the Prada foundation which again has more coverage than our beloved old Dior but it looks very promising)
@@ttsandra thanks again, Sandra! Now I’ll have to try the Givenchy one - will get back to you on the feel/wear/look of it :)
Will go for the sheer look, for sure!
I see that YesStyle carries the Armani to. Go compact and refill in 5 shades… for around $89 😢
Yes it’s very expensive! When I first bought the full compact in 2019 in Canada I remember it was $75 CAD and now it has gone up in price a lot.
How would you say the Chanel water tint compares to any other tinted spf?
There’s no spf in it at all. It’s like a hydrating water-based serum with a pinch of pigment! way more thin and watery in texture
Oh sorry, I meant how it looks on the skin - does it give a different look to what the ULTA MD tinted spf or skinceuticals tinted would give? Very tempted to purchase this but trying to figure out if its different to my collection@@ttsandra
@@Aaizamurad i haven't tried the elta md tinted SPF but compared to skinceuticals tinted physical fusion SPF it gives a bit more of a luminous blurred effect on the skin. theyre really beautiful layered together. the skinceuticals tinted SPF is really neutral and perfect for my skin tone, and then when i do the chanel water fresh tint in "medium" on top it gives a hint of sunkissed warmth to the skin but it still looks like i'm not really wearing anything, just my skin but better!
❤❤❤
🥰
