    While watching your video and looking at comments it occurred to me that older women past menopause face a real foundation dilemma. Some of us have wrinkles, dry skin, uneven skin texture and discoloration. Dewy moisturizing foundations tend to emphasize texture and they may not provide needed coverage. Yet most foundations with great coverage tend to make skin look dryer and emphasize wrinkles. Maybe you can address this issue sometime to help us older women make the best foundation choices. Thank you.

      I found the regular L’Oréal Tru match in the pump bottle (not the Nude serum) gives me the best of both. Good satin coverage that can be built to medium full , lightweight, and blends on like a dream.
      There’s a good reason why it’s been around so long and liked by so many and good especially mid life thru mature skins.

    Hey Nikki! Great uncut as usual. I’m wondering if you might be open to doing a once-a-month model video. Like one month you have someone with mature textured skin, another month someone with 30’s blemish-prone skin, etc. Just to give us a relatable, realistic expectation of what proper skin-prep and makeup can look like on everyday people. Yes, yes, your skin is TOO beautiful for many of us to relate to 😂 just a thought ❤

I’m relearning who I am and learning self-care. I have been diagnosed with a rare serious spinal disease called Adhesive Arachnoiditis. I mention it because a) I have to depend on family and now suddenly after being so active in my life having to apply for disability. b) to raise awareness of this disease for women who have had any injuries, spinal surgeries, epidurals, injections. In saying all of that, I feel the need to try to practice some self-care. You and I have a similar skin tone and style. I so appreciate your knowledge and efforts to educate us on makeup, techniques and options. Idk if I’ve missed it, but could you please do a video on ur skincare routine and/or options. Personally, I have dry skin that is just starting to become mature leaning. I have been given a Groupon gift for a chemical peel, microdermabrasion, or other skincare treatment-anyone in the community who can offer a suggestion on which one would be best. In Nashville, Tn area. Love to all and Blessings to you, Mitch and yours, Nikki. Thank you again so much!!! ❤️✊🏽🌟🙏🏼💋

    Thank you for this video! In my pre-kid days, I used to not think twice about buying high-end and I would run through bottles Armani luminous silk foundation. I’m excited to try the L’Oreal alternative that’s much more mom budget- friendly! Love that you give us your honest thoughts on beauty products on both ends of the spectrum!

    The problem with drugstore foundations is the shades. In the L’Oréal tru match there isn’t a shade close to my shade at all. I’m a light cool/neutral. Yet somehow there isn’t a shade.

    • @Ourjourneytohealth
      @Ourjourneytohealth 2 місяці тому +7

      Yes! I have this problem as well. I’m a light neutral undertone. The drugstore foundations are either too pink or too orange for me even if they say neutral. I used to buy multiple shades just to mix. I don’t do this anymore with high end foundations.

    • @MichaellaSapphire
      @MichaellaSapphire 2 місяці тому +3

      Same. I'm looking for a good foundation for special events and I just never have good experience with shade matching drugstore foundations. They either make me look grey or orange 😂 I'm looking to higher end foundations to be assisted in shade matching.

    • @victorias3625
      @victorias3625 2 місяці тому +2

    Loved the video! I usually wear my high-end foundations for going out to events or church or going with friends and my drugstore foundations to places like the grocery store, doctor, or😮 shopping. Having alternatives that are less expensive are necessary in my book. I'm always looking for new drugstore foundations. This was perfect!
    Nikki, you have to try the Maybelline sky high primer with the E.L.F. Big Mood mascara! Gives dramatic lashes to my nonexistent short sparse lashes!

    I did buy the true nude after wearing tinted moisturizers for years. It is awesome. I have large pores that looked a slight bit more prominent with this foundation but a blurring primer in those small areas fixed it right up. Yes, it is messy, but I am in LOVE with the True Nude. Gorgeous!

    I really appreciate videos like this from an expert like you. I mostly buy drugstore makeup. I’m in my 70s with dry winter skin and more combo summer skin. I alternate between the L’Oréal True Match Skin Foundation, the Nude Serum and Revlon’s Illuminance. Dior Forever Matte is my favorite foundation for special occasions. If it’s really humid or warm I’ll use Estée Lauder Doublewear. I recently learned that adding a bit of Dbl Wear to lighter or more moisturizing foundations helps to bump up their coverage & longevity. FYI, I replace makeup bottle droppers with cheap pumps I get on Amazon. However pumps can put out too much product & be messy. I prefer wands.
