    I just came across this foundation so I started looking for reviews on it and yours was the forst I came across. I LOVED everything about your makeup. Beautiful. I am definitely going to be pushing your page on my Facebook.

    I’ve been using this foundation for over 10 years now. Absolute best. Btw, same shade. Lol. It doesn’t break me out. I have very acne prone skin and I’m oily but dry at the same time...just what you said. And this foundation really works for me. ❤️

    • @katelilit
      @katelilit 4 роки тому +1

      nadiazpjm it’s not full coverage, but buildable and it’s very skin like, which is nice. Doesn’t look cakey. It works for my type of acne, but I would say if you have severe acne and dark spots, might not be the best option. If you want to try it, without purchasing, you can go to Macy’s or any other department store that sells Clinique, and they can shade match you and apply it on your face, to see how you like it. 😊

      Do you use a primer with this foundation?

    • @katelilit
      @katelilit 4 роки тому

      Maria Melnic personally I don’t use a primer. I just use a lotion before applying the foundation and then I set it with a powder. Works beautifully for me without the primer (but my acne and dark spots are moderate, not severe). Either way, a good foundation to try for a more natural look.

    So pretty on you!! I like Clinique makeup. It's great for ppl with allergies.
    Applying makeup the most hygenic and budget-friendly way is with your fingertips but if you prefer a brush or Sponge, beautyblender,, You can dab dots of the foundation on your face then go to work connecting the foundation dots with the brush or sponge.
    Stephanie Marie has a channel and does lot of reviews & out of the clear blue she bought some of that Clinique acne Foundation that only comes in 4 colors which you referenced, and she is wild about it .
    She thinks it makes your skin look lovely and she's 45 now and she no longer has any acne but she still thinks it really makes one skin look good.
    If I can get it to the stores I'm going to try a sample of that, because I'm OK with a Tinted Moisturizer or BB cream as well but I think the foundation you have there right now has the prettiest finish of all of Clinique foundations.
    You look great in it👍🏼😎yesI know this video is an older one, but I had to watch Clinique centered videos, because I need to buy some of that foundation.
    So, I have to find somebody wearing it to find out which colors ppl (who are fair to medium) are wearing , to order. I need to find out what's the name of the shade you have there..
    Loved the video, thank you.

      Steph Leyba it's a really good eyeliner look for hooded eyes! (Works for eyes that aren't hooded too) definitely one of the "easier" winged eyeliner looks imo since it doesn't go all the way across the lid of the eye if that makes sense

I'm sorry but I've had every blender they make and high end/nice brushes, but nothing works better than fingers!

    Frankincense essential oil is the BEST thing that kills my my pimples. Only discovered it at age 40, unfortunately. If I dab it on as soon as I feel a sensitive spot (especially if I re-dab later), the pimple dies away. Thanks for your review on this foundation -- I wanted to see it used before I bought it. Just want to see if the "glow" version is dewier & better for older skin, so we'll see!

      It was also a day that I heavily moisturized but usually I still have to wait for the acne to run its course. It COULD have been a fluke but it shrunk and vanished in less than a day. I will try it again if I have a breakout and report back, lol.

    Which undertone do you have? I wanna buy the foundation but I'm not sure about which color I want. I know I need the lightest color but the undertone is always a big problem for me because I have a more yellow undertone. My skin is way worse than yours, so do you think it will still work well? Thanks for making this video it already helped me❤️ hopefully you will see my comment even though it's a half year later.

    • @madelinekatherine2803
      @madelinekatherine2803  6 років тому +3

      Ann-Cristin Wriggers hi darling ❤️ I totally understand finding your undertone is hard I'm still trying to figure it out sometimes (lol) definitely why I went and got matched by one of the Clinique employees since they have a really accurate chart they use. As far as undertones you may be like me! The reason I struggled figuring mine out was because apparently I'm actually a mix of warm and cool so what they call "neutral" so I can get things in medium or light as long as they're neutral and depending on how tan I am or not. I've discovered neutrals give me the best coverage and don't end up looking "orange" or "yellow" on my skin throughout the day. Hopefully that helps! 💋

    • @madelinekatherine2803
      @madelinekatherine2803  6 років тому +2

      Ann-Cristin Wriggers as far as coverage I do think it works very well. My Dermablend is my HG for acne coverage but this is a nice lighter and more breathable option.

      Have you ever gone to the Clinique counter to get matched?? Honestly that was the best decision I made because I didn't want to risk it and they matched me PERFECTLY. Which is nice because now if I try any other of their foundations they all have the same name for colors and shades so I always know which one I need.

    I think I would enjoy your videos a lot, but that you tend to ramble prevents me from fully enjoying them. I really like your personality, but I think you could funnel it more effectively. I usually critique people, if at all, for being too formulaic, but I think you could benefit from more structure to your videos. I rarely watch videos sped up, but I felt the need to watch this one at 1.5.
