I really appreciate how quickly you start your videos. No long, loud, boring, useless intro with flash . .. . And it’s really pretty with all the colors.
Thanks, Dawn! I try to get right into it - and for foundation reviews, I do them all in the same sequence/format so once you know what order I go in, you can skip right to whatever you want because they're basically all the same. Intro/description, swatches, application, finished makeup look and chat about what I'm wearing as makeup that day, daylight check-in outdoors, then conclusion.

Physicians Formula was first developed by a physician for his wife who was allergic to many typical ingredients including fragrance. The entire line used to be completely fragrance free. It's easy to tell that they were bought out some time ago as almost everything now is heavily laden with it. I'm loving the Maybelline Sky High mascara, it's my current fave! Would love to watch a vlog from you Shelly! :) The foundation shade looks good and your nails match your hair nicely! :) Please stay safe from the impending ice storm.
I know! I had read that. It baffles me that it has so much fragrance! I have sensitive skin and have always wondered , why? The background story does not fit!
I was so happy to hear that you sometimes have to tap out settling in lines a few times (I assume with other foundations as well?)! I find there is really no foundation I use that has zero settling into my various lines... finest, medium and deep. The key is .... does it eventually stop, and how quickly. Sometimes it’s exhausting with this age 64 1/2 skin. 🥵
As you said you have mascaras for different styles/looks, I would LOVE to see a video of you curating all of the mascaras you use for different purposes. It would be cool to see if you have different application methods or combos of primer & mascaras. I LOVE mascara and application techniques. I save my brushes from the mascaras I love and try them with different formulas to see what effect the combo of brush and formula have. This kind of video would probably take a while to compile , so sorry to suggest you do a lot more work! Your just so enjoyable. Take care & thanks for sharing your gifts!
Thank you for this. I will be skipping due to fragrance. I can't do Cover Girl foundation the same reason. And the last thing I need on my face is more oil.
I have to say that I thought the close up of this foundation looked great on your skin. I really saw some great smoothing and coverage without heaviness
Ziva is a beautiful girl!! I am so glad that you reviewed this foundation!! I am even happier that you like it! I have normal /dry skin. My forehead and between my brows is where it is dry. There are times that I skip foundation on my forehead because I don't even want to be bothered. When I had bangs it was super easy...LOL I have the same mascara but haven't broken it out yet. Still loving my current mascara!
This is currently one of my favorite foundations! I'm in love with it... That means they will probably discontinue it lol. I do set it with just a small amount of powder and I get less settling. I also use a setting spray! It wears so good! I have fairly normal skin.... I might be slightly oily. I don't use any primer at all with it. I haven't tried the primer that goes it. Thanks again for reviewing it. I just couldn't wait to try it lol ❤️❤️
Love when cat makes a cameo, can’t help but look at her cuteness! and it was funny when you were talking about the mascara and I could hear her in the background scratching on something lol 😂 also I saw many other reviews who said they hated the primer. I honestly never buy anything from PF cause they’re kind of expensive for drugstore
Used to use a lot of PF in my younger years, haven't really used anything from them in a while. Not bad. Loving this mascara. Tip it vertically & push up the lashes, after separating horizontally. My eyelashes haven't looked so good. I have the non~water proof & still no flaking. Knew I had to try after my indie makeup group recommended. Those girls know and don't talk a lot about main stream brands. Thanks for the post & testing!
I love your foundation reviews! Funny enough the first time I used the Sky High mascara I didn’t like it at all. I had to use it a few times before it really did its thing!
Great review, thank you! The product looked great on your skin, despite the initial rocky start (patting out lines, etc). I'm a foundation junkie, though, and always tempted by new ones. It's very gratifying to be able to make better decisions based on thorough reviews like yours--so, again, thank you for that. The fragrance alone is enough to steer me away from this one... And wow--bonus camera time for Ziva!
Btw, I LOVE your eye makeup today! It looks gorgeous on you and I love that color! And I like the highlighter on you. Oh and I have the new Sky High mascara but haven't tried it yet.
So happy you loved this foundation! I’ve looked high and low for a replacement of Physician’s Formula’s Health Foundation for over a year. I’m excited to try the Butter Believe It! I hope it’s my new holy grail.
I Was just at Walmart yesterday and they do still sell the healthy foundation, it was fully stocked right there in the section so you might want to check it out!
Every time somebody tells me to pet Ziva for them, I do 😹 maybe that's why she loves when I'm filming so much. She has somehow figured out that it gets here more petting!
I was waiting for your review on this! LOL. I always find myself coming back to your channel anytime I want to look up a review on a foundation, to see if you’ve reviewed it. My shade match is typically identical to all of yours, so I find that helpful as well as hearing your thoughts on the “dry/maturing skin” end. I find it SO extremely helpful!!! 😇
Thanks, Kayla!! Here's the master list if you haven't stumbled upon it yet - I find it easier to search than UA-cam's search (and each one has a link to the review) - geekoutofwater.com/foundation-fest/ =D
I just can't get into foundations that claim the whole "concealer" thing. I like my concealers to be concealers and my foundations to just be foundations and not a combination of both! So so glad you reviewed the Sky High mascara! It's been on my radar for quite some time and I just haven't seen anything on it to make me wanna purchase it - until now! So, thanks for that! I'm on a mascara kick lately and really do need to purchase a bunch of news ones! HUUUUGE Zeva fan right here!! LOL - Just too adorable!! A "B" is not a bad grade at all!! I may have to check this one out! As usual, terrific review!!
Is your sky high mascara the water-proof one? Because that one is 1000% different than the regular non water-proof one. I bought both, and I WAAAAYYYY prefer the regular one. The water proof version is very hard to build up.
I love the thumbnail 😂 I knew you were gonna try this one. I was curious too. An yeah Ulta’s shades suck anymore. I had to laugh when you did swatches the missha blended right into your skin. It looked like you had a gap between the swatches.
There’s a new technique outside, you should try to mix it with the Advanced night repair from Estée Lauder and then, put on your face. It supposed to be more natural and less dry. I will try that for sure. Thank you for this review.
It definitely does not clump on me! My only complaint is that it is REALLY hard to wash off. I've used it a half dozen times or so and it's so hard to remove that I might stop wearing it. I don't like to have to rub or tug at my eyes that much, and even when I take my fingernails and try to scrape remnants off my lashes, I'll have some that's still stuck on some lashes 2 days later and that's with washing my face twice a day!
Hahahaha Ziva in the thumbnail...LOVE it!! ❤️ I didn't think this one was going to end up as nice as it did! The L'Oreal lip you showed was giving me vibes of the Lancome L'Absolu Lacquer wondering if they're the same?? I'll have to check it out. Have a fantastic weekend Shelly! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I’m glad you mentioned the sky high. All the hype behind it has made me want it so bad but, like you I have 20 mascaras! I couldn’t go through them all before they went bad if I used them 2x a day or more lol I get them in all my subscription boxes. I just got the fenty in a boxycharm and it’s nothing spectacular.
Sounds like I'll be sticking with my Age Perfect, still nothing from the drugstore beats it so far. I love when you review foundations I have my eye on bc your skin is the most like mine out of everyone I watch. I have that Sky High mascara too and I LOVE it, like you said it separates and coats every lash. It does give me great length though. I love Ziva hanging around in the background all the time. Thank you Shelly!
Thanks for another great review! Physicians Formula is one of those brands that I want to love buuuut...I just can never fully get on board with. Good ideas, but always kinda misses the mark. I think I might just like their packaging lol 😂 May I suggest a review of the newly reformulated NYX Total Control Pro Drop foundation? Really interested in that and haven't seen many reviews yet. Tbh, I'm getting to a point where it's hard for me to even consider a foundation seriously until I've seen you review it 🤍
Can always count on you to cover the foundations I’m excited about! Definitely thought it was going to flunk the test after catching the dry patches 😩 I have a patch of eczema in the middle of my forehead that comes and goes....probably because I’m always trying out new skincare 🤪
Hi Jessica! I'll add that to the list! Generally once I found the MAC Paint Pot I stopped using most other eyeshadow primers, because it works so well for what I need (anti-creasing, shadow longevity, and coverage of the blood vessels and red spots that you can see on/through my eyelids). The Alter Ego eyeshadow primer is pretty much a straight up dupe for the Urban Decay Primer Potion so I sometimes use that. But I prefer the Paint Pot for its coverage. If you don't need coverage, check out the Alter Ego. Unfortunately I don't really have any others to recommend because I don't buy them! They stopped making my old favorite Maybelline primer.
Hi, if you are referring to the healthy skin foundation, I just saw it yesterday the shelves were totally stocked with it so maybe it came back or they never discontinued it I don’t know but you might want to check Walmart out that’s where I saw it, just an FYI. 😀
Could you try the putty primer without skincare under? I know I'm suppose to do my skin care everyday 🙈 but I haven't gotten back into the habit just yet and sometimes I need to put on makeup in a rush so I'm hoping this would be good to use on on those occasions.
I tried it once more with only moisturizer and no sunscreen. It didn't pill up when I applied it but as soon as I put foundation over it, it pilled up. There's something weird with how it turns to oil on the skin. I don't think I can recommend it unless you buy it somewhere that takes returns if it doesn't work out.
How long should skincare soak in before doing makeup? I think I do too many steps too close together and get pilling. I can not make the Good Molecules caffeine eye patches not to pill up.
I usually go for absolute minimum of 15 minutes primarily so that my sunscreen has time to set down. I don't want to disturb it and end up with patchy sun exposure.
The scent of the butter bronzer was a major irritant as was something in the ingredient deck. This is a pass for me, thank-you for reviewing it, Shelly. 💜
I agree with your movement lines on your forehead! They were obvious. Otherwise....thank you for your review! Take care a you and have a great weekend ✌🏼😘🤘🏼
Bought it. I have mature, dry skin. I kinda like it, not the best. You have to use very little. It also oxidized a bit. I do really like the putty primer. I tap on the putty primer. I tried rubbing it on and it pilled up a bit.
I love your assistant makeup artist! I think the foundation looks nice, but like you, I don't think it's useful for an under eye concealer for someone with dry skin. The shade matches. No go on the primer. If it pills up, not sure who it would be suitable for. My nails are always naked. Shelly, have you gotten around to the foundation from Shein? Mine arrived, just haven't used it yet. Apparently they have a whole line of makeup, that's supposed to be good. Stay warm and dry. I've seen enough snow and ice for 2 winters! Enjoy your weekend. 💓💓
She did! About 10 years ago, I had 3 cats, all named after Top Gun characters. 2 of them died, and Merlin was the only one left (who passed a few months ago). But when the 2 died within a year or so of each other (they were brothers), Merlin was alone, and I wanted to get a cat buddy for Merlin. But I couldn't bring myself to do more Top Gun names (somehow I felt like I was replacing my old buddies Maverick and Goose). So I was going to eventually get 2 cats, a boy and a girl, and name them Ziva and DiNozzo. I got Ziva, but then the next cat I got was female (rescue situation) and so the whole DiNozzo thing went out the window. And then I ended up keeping the shelter names of my 2 rescues because they came from a rescue that had 200k followers already familiar with their names... so now I have Ziva, Daffy, and Polly 😹 and I named my fish Top Gun names, Iceman, Jester, and Viper.
How does this compare to the PF Healthy Foundation? That was my holy grail drugstore foundation & I was so bummed when they discontinued it (it seemed to me it wasn't even on the market all that long to just cancel it). I'm okay for now, since I found some backup bottles on Amazon but I want to be prepared.
Both got a B- grade from me. I had to buy multiple shades of the Healthy foundation to find one that didn't turn orange on me, so the original review was an F. It's really quite comical how orange I got - here's the review: ua-cam.com/video/87v1LLprquI/v-deo.html - but I'd call it a B- if it didn't oxidize.
Just an FYI, I was at Walmart yesterday and I saw the shelves were fully loaded with the healthy skin foundation so either they brought it back or they did not discontinue it but check your local Walmart if you still want to get it. Just thought I would let you know. 😊
@@belindafischer2920 That's really thoughtful, thank you. I actually stocked up when Amazon had some so I'm good for now, but if they really brought it back or changed their minds about discontinuing it, that's great news as it's a foundation I would recommend for a lot of people.
@@sleepystrugglz4586 np, sure they had a lot right at my local Walmart. Have you tried their new foundation it’s called the butter believe it foundation, it’s pretty decent. A nice every day foundation that you might want to check out.m
No, I hadn't noticed that about Ulta because I don't usually buy my foundations from Ulta but that sucks. That is a great idea with the guitar pick. I don't know that I would have ever thought of it. I don't think "Hot Mess" is your middle name hon! I busted out laughing when you said that. Btw, I would love to know what's on your sweatshirt. It looks interesting from what I can see from the top. Take care and big hugs, Kara
I’ve tried the physicians formula primer without skincare and it does work but it is very annoying if I wear ANYTHING under it. Even moisturizer. It more if I’m running out the door and don’t have skincare on and need to hydrate some dry patches.
I think over the years all physicians formula heard was how much people loved the smell of their butter bronzer... And well.... They ran with it and put that fragrance in everything!!! Lol
"a cat= Ziva" 😂😂... yes, we love Ziva, and sorry Shelly but she stole the show today 😆... well I tried this foundation a few times and it didn't work for me, it'd settled into my pores, smile lines, wrinkles, crinkles 😬 it'd feel hydrating for a few hours but then it'd feel a bit drying, I tried it with different primers and without primer but nope, I just couldn't make it work 🤷 ... hugzzz ❤️

Hello Shelley, I would love a video on eye shadow primers.
Hi Jessica! I'll add that to the list! Generally once I found the MAC Paint Pot I stopped using most other eyeshadow primers, because it works so well for what I need (anti-creasing, shadow longevity, and coverage of the blood vessels and red spots that you can see on/through my eyelids). The Alter Ego eyeshadow primer is pretty much a straight up dupe for the Urban Decay Primer Potion so I sometimes use that. But I prefer the Paint Pot for its coverage. If you don't need coverage, check out the Alter Ego. Unfortunately I don't really have any others to recommend because I don't buy them! They stopped making my old favorite Maybelline primer.
Love the look, gorgeous! Hi Zeva!💕
Also hello kitty cameo!
I loved the old PF they took off the market. For dry 65 year old skin. Praying this is the same for us older skin.
Hi, if you are referring to the healthy skin foundation, I just saw it yesterday the shelves were totally stocked with it so maybe it came back or they never discontinued it I don’t know but you might want to check Walmart out that’s where I saw it, just an FYI. 😀
Looks pretty good. I can’t use this one, the fragrance won’t work for me. I think it ended up warming up quite a lot on you.
I just got this foundation yesterday and tried it this morning, I cannot smell any fragrance at all whatsoever.
Could you try the putty primer without skincare under? I know I'm suppose to do my skin care everyday 🙈 but I haven't gotten back into the habit just yet and sometimes I need to put on makeup in a rush so I'm hoping this would be good to use on on those occasions.
I tried it once more with only moisturizer and no sunscreen. It didn't pill up when I applied it but as soon as I put foundation over it, it pilled up. There's something weird with how it turns to oil on the skin. I don't think I can recommend it unless you buy it somewhere that takes returns if it doesn't work out.
@@goow bummer but good to know. Thanks for trying it again.
That L’Oréal lip is new! It just has similar packaging to what they already released. It’s the glossy version to the older matte version!
OOOOOH that's even better!!!
Your kitty wants to be your co-host!! So pretty!!
Your voice is calming 😊 are you a teacher? Just wondering when you said you had some grading to do
Yes I teach web development at James Madison University :)
How long should skincare soak in before doing makeup? I think I do too many steps too close together and get pilling. I can not make the Good Molecules caffeine eye patches not to pill up.
I usually go for absolute minimum of 15 minutes primarily so that my sunscreen has time to set down. I don't want to disturb it and end up with patchy sun exposure.
The scent of the butter bronzer was a major irritant as was something in the ingredient deck. This is a pass for me, thank-you for reviewing it, Shelly. 💜
I agree with your movement lines on your forehead! They were obvious. Otherwise....thank you for your review! Take care a you and have a great weekend ✌🏼😘🤘🏼
You too, Leigh!!! =D
Bought it. I have mature, dry skin. I kinda like it, not the best. You have to use very little. It also oxidized a bit. I do really like the putty primer. I tap on the putty primer. I tried rubbing it on and it pilled up a bit.
I had the same as you with settling into and actually making lines on my face that werent there before lol..it was awful for me.
I love your assistant makeup artist!
I think the foundation looks nice, but like you, I don't think it's useful for an under eye concealer for someone with dry skin. The shade matches.
No go on the primer. If it pills up, not sure who it would be suitable for.
My nails are always naked.
Shelly, have you gotten around to the foundation from Shein? Mine arrived, just haven't used it yet. Apparently they have a whole line of makeup, that's supposed to be good.
Stay warm and dry. I've seen enough snow and ice for 2 winters!
Enjoy your weekend. 💓💓
Hi Shell Belle👋, good to see you again and thanks for this review! I've been looking for a wispy mascara so I can't wait to try the Sky High.
Have you heard of the new clean, black owned brand at Sephora? LYS looks lovely!!!
I haven't but I will check them out!!
I've found that using a dry Real Technique orange makeup sponge works great for applying a putty primer.
Whoa I need to try that!!
That’s a cute kitty 🐈⬛ girl💕
She was stealing the show today! 😹
You may have already answered this question in a past video.
Did Ziva get her name from the NCIS character Ziva David?
She did! About 10 years ago, I had 3 cats, all named after Top Gun characters. 2 of them died, and Merlin was the only one left (who passed a few months ago). But when the 2 died within a year or so of each other (they were brothers), Merlin was alone, and I wanted to get a cat buddy for Merlin. But I couldn't bring myself to do more Top Gun names (somehow I felt like I was replacing my old buddies Maverick and Goose). So I was going to eventually get 2 cats, a boy and a girl, and name them Ziva and DiNozzo. I got Ziva, but then the next cat I got was female (rescue situation) and so the whole DiNozzo thing went out the window. And then I ended up keeping the shelter names of my 2 rescues because they came from a rescue that had 200k followers already familiar with their names... so now I have Ziva, Daffy, and Polly 😹 and I named my fish Top Gun names, Iceman, Jester, and Viper.
@@goow Love it❤️
Thank you for the response!
That Sky High mascara is sold out in every single Shopper's Drug Mart in Toronto 😧
Wow!! My only complaint with it is that it's really hard to wash off. I'm having no luck with cleansing balms, cleansing oils, or cleansers.
How does this compare to the PF Healthy Foundation? That was my holy grail drugstore foundation & I was so bummed when they discontinued it (it seemed to me it wasn't even on the market all that long to just cancel it). I'm okay for now, since I found some backup bottles on Amazon but I want to be prepared.
Both got a B- grade from me. I had to buy multiple shades of the Healthy foundation to find one that didn't turn orange on me, so the original review was an F. It's really quite comical how orange I got - here's the review: ua-cam.com/video/87v1LLprquI/v-deo.html - but I'd call it a B- if it didn't oxidize.
Just an FYI, I was at Walmart yesterday and I saw the shelves were fully loaded with the healthy skin foundation so either they brought it back or they did not discontinue it but check your local Walmart if you still want to get it. Just thought I would let you know. 😊
@@belindafischer2920 That's really thoughtful, thank you. I actually stocked up when Amazon had some so I'm good for now, but if they really brought it back or changed their minds about discontinuing it, that's great news as it's a foundation I would recommend for a lot of people.
@@sleepystrugglz4586 np, sure they had a lot right at my local Walmart. Have you tried their new foundation it’s called the butter believe it foundation, it’s pretty decent. A nice every day foundation that you might want to check out.m
No, I hadn't noticed that about Ulta because I don't usually buy my foundations from Ulta but that sucks. That is a great idea with the guitar pick. I don't know that I would have ever thought of it. I don't think "Hot Mess" is your middle name hon! I busted out laughing when you said that. Btw, I would love to know what's on your sweatshirt. It looks interesting from what I can see from the top.
Take care and big hugs, Kara
This shirt is a "peace - love - Color Street" shirt! =D
@@goowthanks for letting me know. It looked pretty cool from the top so I figured it was a neat shirt.
That looked beautiful on you. 👍
Love the cat shot haha
She's getting her 5 minutes of fame 😹
.... Dry Gal - check.... over 40 - check.... why am I just now finding your channel??? Subscribe?- Check..... 😆
Welcome, Suzie!!
Oh yeah, I think the foundation looks good on you! Just my opinion
I’ve tried the physicians formula primer without skincare and it does work but it is very annoying if I wear ANYTHING under it. Even moisturizer. It more if I’m running out the door and don’t have skincare on and need to hydrate some dry patches.
I love your videos but the cat... 💙💙 super adorable
I thought I was the only one who used my guitar picks for putty haha 🤣
I'm terrible. I rarely use primer. Just Aveno Positively Radiant cream or Neutrogena Hydro Boost
I found the lightest shade to be more neutral while the next shade up seemed yellow lol
That strong scent is a deal breaker for me. When will they realize fragrances are are not good in skin products?! Thats like dermatology 101...
I think over the years all physicians formula heard was how much people loved the smell of their butter bronzer... And well.... They ran with it and put that fragrance in everything!!! Lol
I can’t smell a thing when I use this butter foundation, nada.
You have very nice natural nails
Thanks, Poppy! My mom does too so I think it came from her side :)
"a cat= Ziva" 😂😂... yes, we love Ziva, and sorry Shelly but she stole the show today 😆... well I tried this foundation a few times and it didn't work for me, it'd settled into my pores, smile lines, wrinkles, crinkles 😬 it'd feel hydrating for a few hours but then it'd feel a bit drying, I tried it with different primers and without primer but nope, I just couldn't make it work 🤷 ... hugzzz ❤️
Ziva has been getting her 5 minutes of fame lately!!! 😹
