I just got my order of Il Makiage foundation, primer and concealer. I have problem skin because of Lupus so it's tricky for me to get the color right the first try but it came very close. I did contact the company though, to ask if on my next order i could try a little lighter shade and was shocked when they told me they would send it out and I could keep the first one at no extra charge. Customer service for this company is amazing and the foundation is the best. I am 52 with only a few fine wrinkles but foundations are a nightmare on older skin because they usually show wrinkles worse if you're not careful. This makeup made me look 10 years younger, covered a ton of skin damage from lupus and evened out the redness from my Mylar rash. I am blown away and no, they didn't pay me to say this lol. I just watched your video and figured I'll let you know about my experience with getting a new color. If you think it's slightly off, contact them! They will send you a new color no problem!
Oh man thats exactly my issue. I have lupus and have a rash too. I was skeptical with trying it but seeing your comment made me order it. Hope I have the same experience as you,Thanks!
I definitely saw the difference on the skin. It had flawless, even coverage and surprisingly looked completely natural. I can't believe that it stayed 5 hours while cleaning and sweating.
Soooo I clicked on this video because I have been looking through reviews of this foundation but I cannot get past your hair.... it is STUNNING! OMG! Like actual magic 🤩
I’m 55 and just tried it and the concealer. I’ve always had very dark eyes. I too was amazed how accurate the color choice was. With older skin, I find foundation makes me look older because it settles into lines and just doesn’t work well with my older skin. I don’t use a ton of products. I barely wear makeup. I wanted some product for special occasion or date night. I thought my results were too good to be true and found your review doing additional research. I’ve subscribed because you’re honesty was so refreshing. Plus, like so many others, your hair is gorgeous! Thank you for the great review.
Did it cover fine lines? Fine lines on my forehead drive me crazy and my skin is dry so foundation and concealer settle on the surface and I end up patchy by the afternoon.
I believe it covered my fine lines really well. I’ve been having issues sleeping, so I had deeper lines by my eyes. It did pretty well with those. I noticed a little patchiness by end of day, but I don’t use primer, so maybe that would help. It could be a need to replace my current face moisturizer. I have to by a facial soap, because it takes more than water to get it off. I haven’t worn a foundation like that in a long time. But, I’m really happy with it, especially with my older skin.
I used the primer, foundation and concealer and each time my forehead lines are so pronounced and make me look terrible. The color was great… but after trying everything, I went back to my drug store products because this expense stuff is only for young skin.
Love your reaction! It looks wonderful on you. I got mine (#35) a few weeks ago. Straight up the first makeup that has ever matched my super pink pale skin. No itching, no breakouts. And I am 61! That’s a darn long time waiting for Prince Charming Foundation to come along. I love it. I have also tried their primer, concealer, setting spray, infinity lip and lip slip color, eye liner pencil and the free gift eye liner ink pen. Love it all. 💜
i also have a pale pink tone. (redhead) this was fhe best matxh ive ever had and it was online.. i held up my foundation ive been using i was like omg i thought that was a good shade.. and it was to orange/yellow. this made me look bare faced. i may return the primer.
I'm 67yrs old with dry skin. I took quiz, I got #35. I primed and apply foundation with the brush (they gave for free) I also bought the concealer, #35. (However, I could not get it opened.. I pulled, twisted, it just would not, come off) I contacted Customer service and they sent me a new one, I didn't have to send the other back) Well, I applied with the brush, and it's a perfect match! I love it!! The concealer perfect!!! I'm very impressed and happy!!
I tested a #35 too. I’m 70,so I am concerned that this won’t work for me. I haven’t worn foundation for years but I’d like to try it again just for the fun of it. I may go to Sephora or Ulta and get a more personalized experience though. If Il Makiage would allow me to purchase a sample with no strings attached I’d definitely do that,I just don’t like the idea of having to return it (Im too forgetful) or exchange it for a different shade-what if I decide I just don’t want to use it at all-will they refund my purchase price INCLUDING shipping-or is it strictly exchanging? I also don’t like the idea of giving my cc info…..
@@marianneodell7637. They send you a replacement choice and you don’t need to send back the original. Or they will send you double the amount to spend in their store if you don’t want a replacement oh and they send a lot of freebies 😅
I just received my foundation. Put primer on as I have dry skin. BAM 2 and half pumps and it looked like skin. Not cakey or doll like. I put finishing spray on to hold it all. Midnight coming home it all looked the same. Gorgeous foundation.
Great review really helped, but I found myself waiting to the end to see if you took the hairband off so I could see what your beautiful curls looked like down 😂 your curls are stunning
When my foundation arrived, the color was way off. They literally gave me $50...no joke...to let me spend on any of their products. Wasn't a fan of the foundation but they were awesome for doing that😄
Me too but everything I want it out of stock. I wanted to get some of their lip liners because they’re supposed to be amazing but all the colors I want are out. The eyeshadow quads as well. So I’m just hanging out...with $50.
@@nekograce7914 I'd suggest checking out the company 100% pure, see if there are any shades you like. They don't have lipliners, but do have eyeshadows. I ordered a couple of lip colors, bright red and berry (Cabaret). A bit pricey, but I personally feel worth it since the ingredients are more natural....and no castor oil! I'm allergic and have a very unpleasant reaction when putting anything containing it on my lips (most lipsticks contain it, it seems). Itching, burning, oozing...nope.
I just got Woke up like this 120 and a brush (which was free for signing up for auto ship, which can be adjusted based on my needs) and just tried it. It looked a bit orange at first but has toned down as it set. Finish looks better than any other product I have tried. I am 63, it's pretty nice to see my face look even and younger. Thought it was a scam but am very pleased. Found your video searching for how to apply it. Thanks for sharing.
Absolutely Beautiful match..They are an AMAZING Company who 100% backs up their product and Yes! their customer Service is the Best I've ever dealt with, Ever!!
I was a total skeptic myself...until I applied it! I was matched with the same shade as you and I gotta say... I'm pleasantly surprised! It's definitely my go-to now!
I’m a oily skin girl. I tested this foundation out at the beginning of quarantine and LOVE it!! I’ve been using Lancôme for the last 4 years (still my fave) but this is a close second for sure!
I used It as well before switching to Il Makiage. I have used Il Makiage for over a year now. I had to change my shade a little because I'm already a little tanner than normal due to working on my backyard. I'm using 75 now. Lol!! It's not a dark as it sounds. The coverage is great and lasts all day.
Thanks for the review! I just got mine and I also think it was a perfect match. Their trial period is indeed 14 days. The only thing I don’t love is that I have rosacea and this foundation made my skin itch a tiny bit. I usually use La Roche Posay foundation that was recommended by my dermatologist and that is actually the best for me.
Was going to get some but now nervous as lots of products make me itchy. What I also find with most foundations is they'll feel ok but after a week or two of use I get blind spots brewing. Most recently tried IT, after a wk or two my skin erupted.
Nice job with your video. I tried FK I am flawless concealer. I just love it. When I bought it I was like no way this ain't going to work. But the consistency just melts into your skin. I only use it to cover my little under eye darkness more like highlighting. That was a little powder and I'm good to go. I'm 54 African American woman. And you use color 14.5. I think it makes the skin of your healthier not creepy and the skin looks great even after washing my face. Kind of healthier looking. I have found the customer services absolutely excellent and they do give you bonuses. Nothing like a little surprise now and then. I highly recommend and if you don't like they'll take it back.
OK -- sold! The comments also reinforce the company is behind a perfect match or they will exchange/refund without any hassle. AND I've got to ask about your lashes! Extensions? Strips? (If so, which?) They're perfect (along with your hair)! 🤗
I got this foundation and the colour wasn‘t a perfect match. I got a refund without any fuss and no drama sending it back. So still great experience for me!
You are absolutely Goooorgeous with and without the make up! The make up looks super natural on you. I took the quiz but wanted confirmation on the product and came directly to your video. Say no more, I'm sold! I will be ordering my foundation now ☝🏾😊 Thank you for 🙏🏾
I’m excited now for my foundation to arrive! That color looks so good on you.... of course everything I’ll bet looks good on you. Hopefully it will look just as good on my mature skin, as your young beautiful skin.
Honestly thank you for doing this video because i have seen other videos on UA-cam saying that IL Makiage foundation wasn't as good as the adds say and it was low key cakie so thank you for an honest review. I also heard that this foundation caused acne for some people. So the honest review is nice. I am seriously considering buying this foundation and the concealer especially because I have moles on my face.
I also love love this foundation. I won't use anything else. I have redness and broken capillaries in my cheeks it covers like to other. While bot feeling heavy or caked on. It last all day abd jight perfectly when I paid with their No filter poreless primer. I have tried so many foundations and I am a forever customer of il makiage
I just found you today, completely randomly. I clicked because of your hair! LOL I subscribed for every other reason I loved about you & this video! I saw a TON of comments on your beautiful curls so I will just say "Ditto!" about that! Why has no one mentioned your engagement/ wedding ring??!!! Gurl they can see that from outer space!! It's enviably gorgeous!!🤩😍 I may have to try this foundation now that I've seen your review and read a lot of great comments about it and their customer service!! Glad I found you! Great video & review! I already noticed you have a curl routine/ tutorial vid. Sadly mine is not as curly😭 Curly, yes, but not even close to yours. I'm still going to watch your video!!!😁😘😃
ah, this was legit the exact same reaction I had! Hahaha I couldn’t believe it!!! I have some pigmentation and eczema and this foundation was amazing for coverage and felt so light weight, didn’t even irritate my skin! Just. Shook!
I got the concealer & find it a great match didn’t settle into creases or accentuate driness, nice medium coverage of my circles. I’m over 50 but have not used many concealers so can’t compair.
It can only be as good as your answers to the quiz. I did the quiz, and they recommended shade 40, which looks rather darker than Fenty 200! In fact, 40 looked darker than your 60 does here! I am slightly darker and cool toned than you. So I remain unconvinced. It's REALLY hard for me to get a foundation match...
Same! I am going back and forth in trying this. I normally have to mix 3 or 4 foundations to get decently close. I have cystic acne and alot of redness so it's also hard to find something that actually covers :(
I have been matched with the same shade oily and dry skin and I do not like the makeup, I prefer IT Cosmetics 100% im returning mine which I will give the company props for their return policy
Hello from Australia🌞🌻 I’ve been interested in the ‘Il Maqiage’ foundation for quite a while & have watched several other videos. It was good to see how beautiful it looked on you so I went to their website & did the test. I was also matched to #35..!!! I haven’t ordered it yet as makeup/cosmetics in general are very expensive here compared to the U.S. BUT I’ll probably get it when finally give in & can’t resist any longer 🌸💗🌸
The match was perfect which was shocking. Good coverage and held up. I have really really dry skin. It didn’t dry me out, didn’t crack on the skin. I’ve worn it two days and so far. So good.
Just ordered my foundation but chose to not get the concealer. Thank you for the video. I watched it before I confirmed my foundation order. My Boxers reacted to the sound of your dog also..
@@fareeharahman3563 the foundation was too orange so I had to ship it back. They sent me a new shade and it was perfect. I’m probably going to switch to a BB tinted cream from Ulta. I watched this video so I’m going to try some of her mom’s routine. ua-cam.com/video/1Ru2Kr6QOeY/v-deo.html
@@Gamerchix_Kelly oh okay thanks for letting me know. I'm just asking because I just purchased what I thought was a free sample of their foundation but just realized that if I keep the product for more then 14 days then I get charged the full price which unfortunately I cannot afford, so I'm thinking of taking some out in a little bottle loll and then returning it the same day I get it. So I just wanted to know if the return process was easy or not.
You are gorgeous! I Kept waiting the whole video for you to take off your foundation because your skin is so good I thought you had a full face of make up on before you started lol. You look like Gretchen from mean girls so beautiful
I just got this a few days ago myself and I’m a super oily skin lady. Normally all foundations make me super shiny in about 30 minutes. Except MAC foundation powder. This actually held up all day and stayed pretty matte on my super oily pale skin. It did settle into my smile lines but I’m going to try to put it on a bit more sparingly around my mouth next time to see if that helps. Thanks for the video!
So I bought this like two days ago and since then, I've thought I should probably have researched it before I signed up. I currently use IT Cosmetics BB cream and Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer blended together because the former looks really dry and settles deep in my wrinkles and the latter doesn't cover up all my skin discoloration. Mixing them together provides better coverage that isn't as cakey. I watched two other women review this before I found you. The first gal didn't like it and she does closeups of her skin and I could see why she wasn't crazy about it. It looked very matte and she had a couple of blemishes that it was really cakey around. She checked back a couple of times in the day and would run her finger down the bridge of her nose and you could see where her finger had streaked through the foundation. Then she'd show her fine and you could see the foundation on it. The second woman said it was just sitting on top of her face. She used the beauty blender for the left side and brush for the right. She said the makeup didn't mix well with water in the blender and was splotchy. When she used the brush, she said it was literally sitting on top of her skin, as opposed to blending in with it. She also does very close up shots but u couldn't see what she was talking about. I thought he skin looked great. I'm in my late 40s and have skin discoloration from Rosacea, sun (age?) spots, fine lines and wrinkles, especially around the corners of my lips and underneath my eyes on the inside corners my skin is crepe-y. Also, my skin is dull. I drink massive amounts of water, but that hasn't improved the quality of my skin. I have purchased a ton of hydrating products here in the last week and am applying them religiously morning and night, but so far it hasn't changed the what the foundations i currently use look on my skin. Out of curiosity, I'd like to ask your age/range. The first woman I saw was probably in her early 40s. The second woman was older than me, I think. But you seem quite young. I'm wondering if that could be a contributing factor to why the makeup looked so good on you. Honestly, you're beautiful and your skin without foundation is amazing! So maybe that contributed to your success as well. Thanks for posting your review. Now I'm going to worry until the stuff finally gets here: will it work? I'm really almost desperate to find a foundation that fill lines and hide discoloration. 🤞
@Kristina I don't know about collagen or silica, but I'm using a serum with vitamins c & e with ferulic acid, hyaluronic acid from CeraVe, plus the CeraVe night moisturizer and their overnight moisturizer. Are there makeups with collagen and silica, or are those supplements I should be taking? I used to burn so easy outside and didn't really care until I got a bad case of sun poisoning that made it impossible for me to expose any skin to the sun without breaking out in the most itchy, burning bumps. That went on for about 10 years, maybe a little more. While that doesn't happen anymore, even if I swim in sunscreen, I burn but thank goodness the bumps don't come back. My skin wasn't even really a big deal to me until just recently. I'd say I started becoming more aware of how it looks, how is deteriorating and want to do something to stop it if I absolutely can't reverse it.
@Kristina thank you! You've been so helpful. Thank you for sharing these links as well. I'm going to look up this information you gave me and incorporate it into my beauty routine. Thanks again.
@@greeneyedgal5648 You need to add a gentle chemical exfoliator to your skincare to help with dullness. I would recommend AHA's (Lactic acid and glycolic acid are great for aging skin, a MUST). Make sure your skin is damp when applying anything with Hyaluronic Acid because it will pull moisture from the skin if not. Hope this helps! -Esthetician-
@@le4905 thank you for the suggestions. I don't use and AHAs, so I'll give it a try. I do make sure my skin is damp when I put on my hyaluronic acid. It's one of the first things I learned (from Dr. Dray,I think) when I first stared watching UA-cam videos and paying attention to my skin. I honestly haven't noticed the HA song anything positive to my skin and I've been using it since maybe Thanksgiving, not really sure but it's been a while. I keep using it though in the hopes that maybe it will help with the aging process going forward!
Thanks for an honest review. I like everyone have been seeing this everywhere so I wondered what all the fuss was about. Looks great on your skin. Good makeup starts out with great skincare. Can you tell us about the glowing primer? I have seen it advertised too. 😊🙂👍🏾🙌🏽😏🙌🏽
I have lupus and pcos. But I've managed to transform my skin to awesomeness (imo). I was hoping for something light weight but elegant in formula. I hated it immediately 😂 I'm sorry. I tried and wanted to like this so much 😪 but it was just sadness for me. It felt super heavy and oily. Also, less coverage than I was expecting. Especially considering that the only foundation I've used over the last 3 years is the Maybelline fit me.
It really didnt work for my delicate skin either, I would recommend Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua , is very light and makes you feel you are not wearing anything but leaves your skin velvety perfect :)
100% Perfect match! Crazy! None of my other foundations I have gotten in person have been a match like this! Mine came with a brush & a liquid liner (which is also amazing!) I mixed mine with my Pink Madison Collagen Cream, and the finish was less matte, and looked BEAUTIFUL 😍 Hands down the prettiest foundation I have EVER tried (I used IT Cosmetics, too) and I am 54 and tried a LOT of foundations and wasted a LOT of $$$ over the years! Until now! ❤ Il Makiage ❤
I got mine today and at first it looked way too orange. But then i went to use the bathroom and glanved in the mirror after about 20 minutes and it looks waaayyyyy better. It actually looks really good! But my sisters was too light.
I am so glad I watch this video. I literally got my foundation today a little on the orange side but I’m glad you read the directions because I sure didn’t I already Printed out the return label so I guess I’m going to have to try it for a week and see I love the feel of it and the look
Hello! 🇨🇦🇨🇦. I found your channel 30 mins ago, looking for reviews on il makiage. For reviews like this, I always look at the person's whole channel to make sure they are legit and not a one time video created by the item's company. I am very impressed with your channel, and will be checking out your content! Thank you for your review! I am liking my shade match so far. I subscribed to their auto refill to get a cheaper price, but the most number of months they have is 4 months….I’m positive I won’t use up the bottle in just 4 months. We'll see what their customer service says about this.
I just got mine today and it was way too orange and was disappointed.☹ i took a pic outside and it didnt look good. Then i looked at it like 20 min later and it looks AWESOME! So seriously, wait a bit before judging the match.
Hi, First off I wanted to say that your videos are really great and very helpful when evaluating products. I also wanted to say that I to find IL Makiage to be a great company with an amazing foundation. I also find the color match to be uncannily accurate and the coverage is flawless. Their customer service is also amazing-I will be a loyal customer from now on.
IL MAKIAGE tutorial said not to use sponges with their foundations because it soaks up the liquid & your wasting product. Instead use a foundation brush. IL MAKIAGE has the best foundation brushes
I paid just over $120 for my No Filter primer, Woke Up Like This foundation, F*ck I'm Fabulous concealer. Just got it!! Oooh!! I can't wait!!! Thanx for the vid.
Here is another question: Did you get any on your clothes, or on a mask, perhaps? If so, did it wash out with just regular detergent? I haven't worn makeup in over a year but now I am thinking perhaps I will start again. Sometimes I do have to put on a mask quickly but I don't want to ruin them/stain them. Thanks!
That is the same shade they recommended for me. I'm glad I watched you. You are very cute but we have different complexions so I may need to retake the test. I have more reddish undertones than you . You have pretty skin, even before the makeup. I love your hair too
Does anyone know if it's waterproof? It's a must in South Florida. Thank you for your review on this product. Nice job! And P.S. As a stylist, I just want to say, I love your hair! Makes me want to get a perm. Yours is natural, of course... So jealous...
I just tried all 3 concealer and primer with it and I live it. Spot on. Concealer may be a touch close to the actual foundation. Not sure. Bit what I do know is I have another Concealer and it didn't go on as nice as this did with my usual products. It actually was alot smoother and blended better with all three products it has. Full coverage and I only did 2 full face applications of taht and I also blended my neck area due to sun damage on one side. I also have a circle of sun damage the side of my baby finger on one side NY my ear and I can't even see it at all. No other make up has been able to clear that ever. I have enough creases in my eyes or my face and u usually do from alot of make up types. Just did a quick night time application m I will add teh rest if my products and eyelashes tom see how she looks. I do not like the bright red lipstick although it applied nicely. It's very pigmented water proof and it's not sticky taht I'm aware of. I don't usually like those types of lipsticks but be nice to have one that actually stayed on my lips for more than a sip of coffee . I 2as also charged full rice plus extra and 7 rater than 5 delivery. I was charged 185 for all 3 items so I don't get the 14 day received testers even tho they said they just held it and it will be let go back to my account and hold will be taken off for that price they said they just tested to see for fraud reasons lol promised 1 to 4 days it be in my account. It's bow been 7m they told me they can't lift it it's computer generated which goes agent's what they advertise and I'll need to call my bank. It was nkt a hold they a really took the finds as it says purchase beside all 3 transactions. Oh ya I bought the lipstick separate and was charged a delivery for it as well even tho it went into the dame delivery box and I was given two separate transaction tracking numbers
Loved this video review! I also was matched with shade 60. My skin tends to be dry, and I have yellow undertones! It was a perfect match though! Stays on very well, even with wearing a mask during covid! Of course some came off on my mask...but I expected that. Over all it looks like I will be keeping it. I have been putting mine on with a brush. Could you explain the difference between using a brush or a sponge for me. Thanks!

I ordered a couple of lip colors, bright red and berry (Cabaret). A bit pricey, but I personally feel worth it since the ingredients are more natural....and no castor oil! I'm allergic and have a very unpleasant reaction when putting anything containing it on my lips (most lipsticks contain it, it seems). Itching, burning, oozing...nope.
The whole time I have just been watching your amazing hair . When I came here to watch the review on the makeup. Love your hair
I just got Woke up like this 120 and a brush (which was free for signing up for auto ship, which can be adjusted based on my needs) and just tried it. It looked a bit orange at first but has toned down as it set. Finish looks better than any other product I have tried. I am 63, it's pretty nice to see my face look even and younger. Thought it was a scam but am very pleased.
Found your video searching for how to apply it. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for reviewing this!! I've been wanting to try this foundation!!!
DAMN...your hair is freakn BEAUTIFUL!
Absolutely Beautiful match..They are an AMAZING Company who 100% backs up their product and Yes! their customer Service is the Best I've ever dealt with, Ever!!
Your reaction 😆❤️ love it! I’ve been skeptical on trying this foundation, so thank you for the video!
Of course! So glad it was helpful!
I was a total skeptic myself...until I applied it! I was matched with the same shade as you and I gotta say... I'm pleasantly surprised! It's definitely my go-to now!
Just tried it. It's fantastic. Dry skin ut i have a matte glow after the foundation. Lasts all day
I'm going for it! At 60 And battling with wrinkles, this product sounds great! If it works as well as the tutorial I'm a life long customer
How’s it go Amber??
I’m a oily skin girl. I tested this foundation out at the beginning of quarantine and LOVE it!! I’ve been using Lancôme for the last 4 years (still my fave) but this is a close second for sure!
Thank you for letting me know! I was so curious about what a different skin type thought about it! Glad to know it works well all around!
I'm so surprised as I've seen so many oily skin types saying it's awful
Lancome is my favorite. This foundation is ok
What Lancome product do you use? I have oily skin as well
Hey’ what Lancôme shade/ product do you use?
I used It as well before switching to Il Makiage. I have used Il Makiage for over a year now. I had to change my shade a little because I'm already a little tanner than normal due to working on my backyard. I'm using 75 now. Lol!! It's not a dark as it sounds. The coverage is great and lasts all day.
Ohh those lashes! Please share how to get them like that/what extensions, products etc. They are gorgeous!
Your whole look is mesmerising. Your eyes pull me in which is accentuated by your beautiful blonde curls and brown roots and brows. You're Gorgey!
This foundation and their costumer service are outstanding! I’m 62 and very hard to please
I love this comment!
Thanks for the review! I just got mine and I also think it was a perfect match. Their trial period is indeed 14 days. The only thing I don’t love is that I have rosacea and this foundation made my skin itch a tiny bit. I usually use La Roche Posay foundation that was recommended by my dermatologist and that is actually the best for me.
How’d you like the color matching and feel of the LRP foundation?
I have rosacea too. Oh so hoping this works!
Was going to get some but now nervous as lots of products make me itchy. What I also find with most foundations is they'll feel ok but after a week or two of use I get blind spots brewing. Most recently tried IT, after a wk or two my skin erupted.
I have also rosacée. Which one you use from la roche posay?
Nice job with your video. I tried FK I am flawless concealer. I just love it. When I bought it I was like no way this ain't going to work. But the consistency just melts into your skin. I only use it to cover my little under eye darkness more like highlighting. That was a little powder and I'm good to go. I'm 54 African American woman. And you use color 14.5. I think it makes the skin of your healthier not creepy and the skin looks great even after washing my face. Kind of healthier looking. I have found the customer services absolutely excellent and they do give you bonuses. Nothing like a little surprise now and then. I highly recommend and if you don't like they'll take it back.
OK -- sold!
The comments also reinforce the company is behind a perfect match or they will exchange/refund without any hassle.
AND I've got to ask about your lashes!
Extensions? Strips? (If so, which?) They're perfect (along with your hair)! 🤗
I got this foundation and the colour wasn‘t a perfect match. I got a refund without any fuss and no drama sending it back. So still great experience for me!
Do you have to send everything back? Including the brush and the gift?
@@ldv02 Not sure about a brush and gift, but I didn‘t have to send the foundation back
Starts at 10:29
That was my set back, video is too, long before the review
HAIR 👏 TUTORIAL 👏 PLEASE!!! 👏👏👏
You are absolutely Goooorgeous with and without the make up! The make up looks super natural on you. I took the quiz but wanted confirmation on the product and came directly to your video. Say no more, I'm sold! I will be ordering my foundation now ☝🏾😊 Thank you for 🙏🏾
I’m mid-trial and I’m in love. You really need to try their mascara!!! It’s sooo good!
the Iconic mascara is so nice your lashes will look beautiful and full
I’m excited now for my foundation to arrive! That color looks so good on you.... of course everything I’ll bet looks good on you. Hopefully it will look just as good on my mature skin, as your young beautiful skin.
Honestly thank you for doing this video because i have seen other videos on UA-cam saying that IL Makiage foundation wasn't as good as the adds say and it was low key cakie so thank you for an honest review. I also heard that this foundation caused acne for some people. So the honest review is nice. I am seriously considering buying this foundation and the concealer especially because I have moles on my face.
I also love love this foundation. I won't use anything else. I have redness and broken capillaries in my cheeks it covers like to other. While bot feeling heavy or caked on. It last all day abd jight perfectly when I paid with their No filter poreless primer. I have tried so many foundations and I am a forever customer of il makiage
I bought this foundation in December and love it! I too thought I was going to get scammed LOL
I just found you today, completely randomly. I clicked because of your hair! LOL I subscribed for every other reason I loved about you & this video! I saw a TON of comments on your beautiful curls so I will just say "Ditto!" about that! Why has no one mentioned your engagement/ wedding ring??!!! Gurl they can see that from outer space!! It's enviably gorgeous!!🤩😍 I may have to try this foundation now that I've seen your review and read a lot of great comments about it and their customer service!! Glad I found you! Great video & review! I already noticed you have a curl routine/ tutorial vid. Sadly mine is not as curly😭 Curly, yes, but not even close to yours. I'm still going to watch your video!!!😁😘😃
Your skin is absolute perfection! Do you even need foundation?! jealous!
15:48 is when she actually tries the make up...OUT OF A 19:48 long videosmh
Wuuuut thank god I found this comment at 4 mins shew.
ah, this was legit the exact same reaction I had! Hahaha I couldn’t believe it!!! I have some pigmentation and eczema and this foundation was amazing for coverage and felt so light weight, didn’t even irritate my skin! Just. Shook!
U talk too much
Lmao. Funny how so many have said diff about this makeup brand.
Was about to order but the cost has gone up a lot since this video. 74.99 is what they’re now charging. 😢
I got the concealer & find it a great match didn’t settle into creases or accentuate driness, nice medium coverage of my circles. I’m over 50 but have not used many concealers so can’t compair.
It can only be as good as your answers to the quiz. I did the quiz, and they recommended shade 40, which looks rather darker than Fenty 200! In fact, 40 looked darker than your 60 does here! I am slightly darker and cool toned than you. So I remain unconvinced. It's REALLY hard for me to get a foundation match...
Same! I am going back and forth in trying this. I normally have to mix 3 or 4 foundations to get decently close. I have cystic acne and alot of redness so it's also hard to find something that actually covers :(
Guys, try it. They honor their refund policy. Zero risk.
I have been matched with the same shade oily and dry skin and I do not like the makeup, I prefer IT Cosmetics 100% im returning mine which I will give the company props for their return policy
Your hair is SO beautiful!
Hello from Australia🌞🌻
I’ve been interested in the ‘Il Maqiage’ foundation for quite a while & have watched several other videos. It was good to see how beautiful it looked on you so I went to their website &
did the test. I was also matched to #35..!!! I haven’t ordered it yet as makeup/cosmetics in general are very expensive here compared to the U.S. BUT I’ll probably get it when finally give in & can’t resist any longer 🌸💗🌸
Il Makiage*
I was too busy looking at you’re beautiful hair
The match was perfect which was shocking. Good coverage and held up. I have really really dry skin. It didn’t dry me out, didn’t crack on the skin. I’ve worn it two days and so far. So good.
Just ordered my foundation but chose to not get the concealer. Thank you for the video. I watched it before I confirmed my foundation order. My Boxers reacted to the sound of your dog also..
Hi. Did u end up getting your foundation and keeping it? Or did you return it?
@@fareeharahman3563 the foundation was too orange so I had to ship it back. They sent me a new shade and it was perfect. I’m probably going to switch to a BB tinted cream from Ulta. I watched this video so I’m going to try some of her mom’s routine. ua-cam.com/video/1Ru2Kr6QOeY/v-deo.html
@@Gamerchix_Kelly oh okay thanks for letting me know. I'm just asking because I just purchased what I thought was a free sample of their foundation but just realized that if I keep the product for more then 14 days then I get charged the full price which unfortunately I cannot afford, so I'm thinking of taking some out in a little bottle loll and then returning it the same day I get it. So I just wanted to know if the return process was easy or not.
You are gorgeous! I Kept waiting the whole video for you to take off your foundation because your skin is so good I thought you had a full face of make up on before you started lol. You look like Gretchen from mean girls so beautiful
I just got this a few days ago myself and I’m a super oily skin lady. Normally all foundations make me super shiny in about 30 minutes. Except MAC foundation powder. This actually held up all day and stayed pretty matte on my super oily pale skin. It did settle into my smile lines but I’m going to try to put it on a bit more sparingly around my mouth next time to see if that helps. Thanks for the video!
So I bought this like two days ago and since then, I've thought I should probably have researched it before I signed up. I currently use IT Cosmetics BB cream and Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer blended together because the former looks really dry and settles deep in my wrinkles and the latter doesn't cover up all my skin discoloration. Mixing them together provides better coverage that isn't as cakey.
I watched two other women review this before I found you. The first gal didn't like it and she does closeups of her skin and I could see why she wasn't crazy about it. It looked very matte and she had a couple of blemishes that it was really cakey around. She checked back a couple of times in the day and would run her finger down the bridge of her nose and you could see where her finger had streaked through the foundation. Then she'd show her fine and you could see the foundation on it.
The second woman said it was just sitting on top of her face. She used the beauty blender for the left side and brush for the right. She said the makeup didn't mix well with water in the blender and was splotchy. When she used the brush, she said it was literally sitting on top of her skin, as opposed to blending in with it. She also does very close up shots but u couldn't see what she was talking about. I thought he skin looked great.
I'm in my late 40s and have skin discoloration from Rosacea, sun (age?) spots, fine lines and wrinkles, especially around the corners of my lips and underneath my eyes on the inside corners my skin is crepe-y. Also, my skin is dull. I drink massive amounts of water, but that hasn't improved the quality of my skin.
I have purchased a ton of hydrating products here in the last week and am applying them religiously morning and night, but so far it hasn't changed the what the foundations i currently use look on my skin.
Out of curiosity, I'd like to ask your age/range. The first woman I saw was probably in her early 40s. The second woman was older than me, I think. But you seem quite young. I'm wondering if that could be a contributing factor to why the makeup looked so good on you. Honestly, you're beautiful and your skin without foundation is amazing! So maybe that contributed to your success as well.
Thanks for posting your review. Now I'm going to worry until the stuff finally gets here: will it work? I'm really almost desperate to find a foundation that fill lines and hide discoloration. 🤞
@Kristina I don't know about collagen or silica, but I'm using a serum with vitamins c & e with ferulic acid, hyaluronic acid from CeraVe, plus the CeraVe night moisturizer and their overnight moisturizer. Are there makeups with collagen and silica, or are those supplements I should be taking?
I used to burn so easy outside and didn't really care until I got a bad case of sun poisoning that made it impossible for me to expose any skin to the sun without breaking out in the most itchy, burning bumps. That went on for about 10 years, maybe a little more. While that doesn't happen anymore, even if I swim in sunscreen, I burn but thank goodness the bumps don't come back.
My skin wasn't even really a big deal to me until just recently. I'd say I started becoming more aware of how it looks, how is deteriorating and want to do something to stop it if I absolutely can't reverse it.
@Kristina thank you! You've been so helpful. Thank you for sharing these links as well. I'm going to look up this information you gave me and incorporate it into my beauty routine. Thanks again.
@Kristina DMT?
@@greeneyedgal5648 You need to add a gentle chemical exfoliator to your skincare to help with dullness. I would recommend AHA's (Lactic acid and glycolic acid are great for aging skin, a MUST). Make sure your skin is damp when applying anything with Hyaluronic Acid because it will pull moisture from the skin if not.
Hope this helps!
-Esthetician-
@@le4905 thank you for the suggestions. I don't use and AHAs, so I'll give it a try. I do make sure my skin is damp when I put on my hyaluronic acid. It's one of the first things I learned (from Dr. Dray,I think) when I first stared watching UA-cam videos and paying attention to my skin. I honestly haven't noticed the HA song anything positive to my skin and I've been using it since maybe Thanksgiving, not really sure but it's been a while. I keep using it though in the hopes that maybe it will help with the aging process going forward!
Thanks for an honest review. I like everyone have been seeing this everywhere so I wondered what all the fuss was about. Looks great on your skin. Good makeup starts out with great skincare. Can you tell us about the glowing primer? I have seen it advertised too. 😊🙂👍🏾🙌🏽😏🙌🏽
I have lupus and pcos. But I've managed to transform my skin to awesomeness (imo). I was hoping for something light weight but elegant in formula. I hated it immediately 😂 I'm sorry. I tried and wanted to like this so much 😪 but it was just sadness for me. It felt super heavy and oily. Also, less coverage than I was expecting. Especially considering that the only foundation I've used over the last 3 years is the Maybelline fit me.
It really didnt work for my delicate skin either, I would recommend Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua , is very light and makes you feel you are not wearing anything but leaves your skin velvety perfect :)
100% Perfect match! Crazy! None of my other foundations I have gotten in person have been a match like this! Mine came with a brush & a liquid liner (which is also amazing!) I mixed mine with my Pink Madison Collagen Cream, and the finish was less matte, and looked BEAUTIFUL 😍 Hands down the prettiest foundation I have EVER tried (I used IT Cosmetics, too) and I am 54 and tried a LOT of foundations and wasted a LOT of $$$ over the years! Until now! ❤ Il Makiage ❤
They stopped selling my foundation from Makeup Forever in the US and I’ve been traumatized. My girl loves this one and she keeps telling me to try it.
it looks like you already have make up on before you started
Nope, no makeup before
Where did you get them curles from. GORGEOUS
Honestly ? I am not a makeup pro, but absolutely OBSESSED with their products. but I guess that´s proof that opinions differ ;)
I really enjoy the foundation! So I think we have the same opinion 💕
@@Frizzandfrillzz ahh okay I got it wrong then - sorry !!
Your makeup looks great! I am intrigued!
I got mine today and at first it looked way too orange. But then i went to use the bathroom and glanved in the mirror after about 20 minutes and it looks waaayyyyy better. It actually looks really good! But my sisters was too light.
At 47 w combo skin I won’t touch anything but Il Makiage now.
I am so glad I watch this video. I literally got my foundation today a little on the orange side but I’m glad you read the directions because I sure didn’t I already Printed out the return label so I guess I’m going to have to try it for a week and see I love the feel of it and the look
Can anyone recommend what they use to remove this makeup - as specific as possible - Thank you in advance! ❤
Neutragena face wash…
Hello! 🇨🇦🇨🇦. I found your channel 30 mins ago, looking for reviews on il makiage. For reviews like this, I always look at the person's whole channel to make sure they are legit and not a one time video created by the item's company. I am very impressed with your channel, and will be checking out your content! Thank you for your review! I am liking my shade match so far. I subscribed to their auto refill to get a cheaper price, but the most number of months they have is 4 months….I’m positive I won’t use up the bottle in just 4 months. We'll see what their customer service says about this.
Omg just found your channel and you are the cutest!!! Can’t wait to watch more videos! ❤🎉
It’s best to color match to your chest.
I love their foundations. Also, the customer service is awesome
I just ordered “ Woke up like this in #60. Stoked to try it!
I just got mine today and it was way too orange and was disappointed.☹ i took a pic outside and it didnt look good. Then i looked at it like 20 min later and it looks AWESOME! So seriously, wait a bit before judging the match.
I ran the video to the middle and SHE STILL HAD NOT TRY THE MAKE UP ....UUGGHH!
Don't you hate that? I already know not to listen to anything until I FAST FORWARD and see some action.
Love your curls too... Share your hair routine please for the curly hair girls
Hi, First off I wanted to say that your videos are really great and very helpful when evaluating products. I also wanted to say that I to find IL Makiage to be a great company with an amazing foundation. I also find the color match to be uncannily accurate and the coverage is flawless. Their customer service is also amazing-I will be a loyal customer from now on.
I really love this foundation!
IL MAKIAGE tutorial said not to use sponges with their foundations because it soaks up the liquid & your wasting product. Instead use a foundation brush. IL MAKIAGE has the best foundation brushes
They just want you to buy their products . Of course they would say that
I got a free brush by signing up for auto ship which can be cancelled if you don't like it or dates for orders can be adjusted to suit your needs.
My goshhh...I love your hair!!!Im waiting for my il Makiage foundation to come in the mail.First time for me!!
I loved your video! Could you please tell me what kind of lipstick/gloss you used? I couldn’t find it in your list. Thank you so much
I too would like the info on your lips! Beautiful!
Me 3 lol.. Love it and ty
Me as well!
Any issues with oxidation??? I order years ago. It started great… then hour or so later gets super orange.
Did you receive compensation, in ANY form, for making this review? I am very curious
Thanks for the review your video was the only recent one!!
I paid just over $120 for my No Filter primer, Woke Up Like This foundation, F*ck I'm Fabulous concealer. Just got it!!
Oooh!! I can't wait!!! Thanx for the vid.
It sucked for me, made my skin dry and hated the color match, I looked yellow, won’t be buying anymore…
It came out beautiful
Here is another question: Did you get any on your clothes, or on a mask, perhaps? If so, did it wash out with just regular detergent? I haven't worn makeup in over a year but now I am thinking perhaps I will start again. Sometimes I do have to put on a mask quickly but I don't want to ruin them/stain them. Thanks!
Yours looks so good! I just got my bottle last night. I’m hoping for the same experience!
Yay! Hope you love!
That is the same shade they recommended for me. I'm glad I watched you. You are very cute but we have different complexions so I may need to retake the test. I have more reddish undertones than you . You have pretty skin, even before the makeup. I love your hair too
What SPF do you recommend I wear under this foundation
Those eyelashes....how are they so long, thick and curl like that? What do you do?
I think they are lash extensions😍
False eyelashes
10:25 she starts applying it.
We have similar complexion, eye color and hair. Was also matched 60.
My friend ordered this and her card was flagged for fraud because this company tried getting two transactions from her that was over $500
Does anyone know if it's waterproof? It's a must in South Florida. Thank you for your review on this product.
Nice job!
And P.S. As a stylist, I just want to say, I love your hair! Makes me want to get a perm. Yours is natural, of course... So jealous...
Hurry up! Cut to the chase.
It goes into creases so bad. Plus it makes my eyes burn like ive been maced or something. I sent mine back.
Loved the color match but thats it!!
I was given the exact same shade as you, but my skintone is olive, so I don't know if "yellow" would be good or not.
I am olive and the same shade, was a good match 👌
I use IT too. Thinking of switching. Love your hair!
I use It cosmetics...did you ever try this IL Makiage? If so, how did you like it compared to It cosmetics?
@@deannadd1985 I mix the two for great coverage.
What amount of coverage did you choose on the quiz?
Nach der zweiten Bestellung war es die perfekte Farbe! Ich finde die Firma klasse
I just tried all 3 concealer and primer with it and I live it. Spot on. Concealer may be a touch close to the actual foundation. Not sure. Bit what I do know is I have another Concealer and it didn't go on as nice as this did with my usual products. It actually was alot smoother and blended better with all three products it has. Full coverage and I only did 2 full face applications of taht and I also blended my neck area due to sun damage on one side. I also have a circle of sun damage the side of my baby finger on one side NY my ear and I can't even see it at all. No other make up has been able to clear that ever. I have enough creases in my eyes or my face and u usually do from alot of make up types. Just did a quick night time application m I will add teh rest if my products and eyelashes tom see how she looks. I do not like the bright red lipstick although it applied nicely. It's very pigmented water proof and it's not sticky taht I'm aware of. I don't usually like those types of lipsticks but be nice to have one that actually stayed on my lips for more than a sip of coffee . I 2as also charged full rice plus extra and 7 rater than 5 delivery. I was charged 185 for all 3 items so I don't get the 14 day received testers even tho they said they just held it and it will be let go back to my account and hold will be taken off for that price they said they just tested to see for fraud reasons lol promised 1 to 4 days it be in my account. It's bow been 7m they told me they can't lift it it's computer generated which goes agent's what they advertise and I'll need to call my bank. It was nkt a hold they a really took the finds as it says purchase beside all 3 transactions. Oh ya I bought the lipstick separate and was charged a delivery for it as well even tho it went into the dame delivery box and I was given two separate transaction tracking numbers
Loved this video review! I also was matched with shade 60. My skin tends to be dry, and I have yellow undertones! It was a perfect match though! Stays on very well, even with wearing a mask during covid! Of course some came off on my mask...but I expected that. Over all it looks like I will be keeping it. I have been putting mine on with a brush. Could you explain the difference between using a brush or a sponge for me. Thanks!
