At 40, this is my go to foundation. Makes my skin look so flawless. I dread the day when this no longer works for me! I mean, I know our skin changes with time. For example, in my early 30s I could get away with wearing a foundation without moisturizer underneath it! Can you imagine? I can’t even fathom that now.

I can't begin to tel you how much I appreciate all the close up pictures of your skin with the products you test. You have no idea how much money you are saving me. I have all the same issues with kin and foundations.

I actually like this foundation because it is one of the few foundations that has yellow undertones from the drugstore. I get oily regardless so I just embrace my youthful glow lol.

I am 52 and have worn this for years. It does not bother me that there’s no dropper. Never even thought about it. I use a sponge for application. I get tons of compliments. It has never faded from my skin but I set with powder. 12 hours and it doesn’t move.

I love when you review foundations for women over 50.

Looks lovely. It lasts much longer and looks smoother with the Fit Me powder.

The coverage is full if you Don't use a beauty blender. If you use a brush you get full coverage.

You probably need to do an update and review this one again.

I think this is the most thorough review I've ever seen on a foundation , and very helpful !! I agree 100%, thank u!

I'm 43. I absolutely loved the way this looks at first but was also disappointed with the longevity. Great review as always, so in depth and articulate. I will continue to play around with it just because I really like it and want to make it work. Thanks Angie!

That is such an interesting video. I absolutely LOVE this foundation I am mid 50’s with normal skin. I use the smash box primer and setting spray and this makes my skin FLAWLESS alllllll day. Just goes to show you how different products work on different people.

Hi Angie. I am 62, have combination skin and wrinkles mostly around my mouth. In the winter I use Revlon Colorstay 24 Hour liquid foundation in combination/oily. It is OK in hiding pores, but has fabulous staying power. In the summer I use Covergirl Ready Set Gorgeous, which is oil free. It is better at hiding pores and lasts and lasts. I have tried everything and these are the only ones that work for my particular skin.

Angie, your eyes really stood out throughout this video. They are certainly not as hooded as they once were. Whatever you are doing, keep it up. They make you look younger and more attractive. Thank you for talking about how this foundation did in heat and outdoor. Looking forward to the rest of your reviews.

My mother in law uses this and LOVES it. She was nothing but Estée Lauder for years and she said this is as good or better in her opinion!! And believe me she is a gorgeous lady I've known for 39 years .. She is now 81 and looks incredible!! She is one that does not go out without her makeup at all!! I myself have not tried it because I'm still working now through my loreal and my Milani cream to powder which I'm really liking right now!! But we all are different and what works for one may not someone else!! For example .. The cereve sunscreen for face you said was to white .. Worked great on me... And just want to say thanks for the recommendation of cereve products .. Just some input!! Thanks!! Carol

Hello great review! I tried this foundation a few years ago and returned it. It was to matte for my liking. I prefer a more radiant/dewy finish as I think it is more youthful looking (I am48) I purchased the dewy finish but I think its the wrong color. I do like how it goes on, its very smoothing and evens out your skin tone. I wanted to share that I have tried several face primers and I just don't care for them. I have been using a finishing spray instead and I love it! Your makeup is set for all day wear and does not budge! I use Hard Candy (I think it is a brand exclusive to Walmart) sheer envy. I absolutely love it! I really hope they never discontinue it!

I love this foundation. Perfect for oily skin and priceworthy.

Thank you Angie. I've been watching you for about 3 months and have learned a ton of info. I'm 63 and re-discovering my love of makeup. You are solo helpful.

As always, love your honesty. This is probably one of my fav drug store foundation besides cover girl. I do agree it's not for long wear. Love that yourw doing this

Hey Angie, awesome series and thanks! Just wanted to let you know that I purchased the Timeless Vit C serum and its wonderful. I use it liberally on my face, neck, hands, and forearms. 9 days ago, I burned arm w/ a clipless curling iron and after applying the vit c serum daily its healed and didn't leave a scar and I always scar. Wow!!! Just wow!!!

Gosh it really looks amazing on your skin when you first apply it! Love that lipstick color on you by the way!

Truly appreciate these videos. Thank you for trying the many makeup products available and showing the results on mature skin.

Great List of foundations tested in Description box!! Hope you list it once in awhile on new posts, rather than having people ask about ones already done. Thanks for all your hard work and attention to detail, other analytical minds love it!

I love all your drugstore foundation reviews. they are so realistic and well-tested with real life situations. As an almost-40 something, I have found my skin has changed a lot in the past year. What once looked really good no longer sits well on my skin. It was on your recommendation that I tried the Neutrogena healthy skin foundation and I have to say, it's the best one I've tried. My budget only supports drugstore foundation b/c I go thru them so quickly and the Neutrogena actually helps my skin look better than it really is. Thanks!!! keep these reviews coming!

The close up pictures you take are the best on youtube! I don't know anyone who does review the way you do. Just great! Great work!

Hi Angie your voice is so calm and relaxing to listen to. And great review, very helpful. Thanks a lotz please keep doing these videos

Writing in my daughters comment box. Just wanted to say that I really like your videos, your very informative. I’m 52 myself and I no how hard it is to find a good foundation. Sometimes I wish you were a little more heavy handed with your initial application but you still show us all the pros and cons, thanks👍😊

I also use the dewy smooth in the Fit Me, it's not very dewy, but it looks a lot better than the matte and I use a small about of powder under it. yeah, under it :)

Love your foundation Fridays!! Thanks Angie for experimenting for the rest of us.

Your reviews are the best I've seen.....very thorough. Thank you for the work you do. You are a pleasure to watch!

Love this foundation series your doing , I can never find one that looks good , I tend to have to wear tinted moisturiser and lots of concealer ! Looking forward to the next video xxxx

This is fabulous. Thank you so much for doing this series with such thoroughness. I'd love to see your thoughts on Revlon ColorStay foundation, as so many people seem to love it. However I am concerned with how it works on mature skin! Thanks again!!

I LOVE their new smooth and dewy, much better for older skin

I really love the format and theme of this series! I'm only 22 but unfortunately have deep forehead lines, under-eye wrinkles, and very large pores around my nose. Because of this I look to a lot of your videos for face products. This foundation has been on my list because so many you-tubers talk about it and I was intrigued by the "matte and pore-less" part. I think I'll be ditching it from the list. Another I've been wanting to try are Covergirl Outlast Stay Fabulous 3-in-1. I like the Revlon Colorstay and L'Oreal Pro-Matte but still haven't found my holy grail. Love the video and looking forward to more in the series! Thank you!

The best foundation that I have found is the Revlon's Colorstay. It never breaks down, looks great all day.

My heavens, by looking at the links of your previously tested foundations, I am wondering if there are any left that you haven't tested yet! Thank you so much for these foundation videos. You're saving us mature skinned ladies time and money... you're a lovely guinea pig!

Ive been using that foundation since it came out and I cant wear it for more than 5-6 hours before it starts spreading and looking blotchy and dotty on my oily/ combo aging skin..... I still use it though it's a great skin tone match and it has a pink undertone which I desperately have to have. It looks beautiful until it starts to go and that's with or without a primer. Always use the beauty blender with it..I won't repurchase but I will use it up.... My holy grail is makeup forever matte velvet plus.......perfect for aging skin does not accentuate fine lines and wrinkles.. flawless beautiful all day and all night!

Hi Angie. I have been watching you since your first month on KZfaq! You are a lovely and very bright, and so very informative! I have seen lots of great reviews on Rimmel 25 hrs foundation. I am a nurse, and I work in an OR setting. You can only imagine the challenges that brings with hot flashes,steam under a mask, and the dreaded transfer issues. Kimmel is on to something here...with a good skin prep and Laura Mercier primer..this little drugstore gem is holding its own as one of my all time best foundations...give it a try and let's see if it passes our holy trail status!

I use the Maybelline Fit Me (I'm 125 too) but for dry skin and this formula wears well for me. It's one of my go-to's. So I would recommend this foundation for anyone who has dry skin.

Hi Angie. I just discovered your channel. I am 55 and I started my YT channel about 2 years ago. I'm so glad to see that there are women in their 50's with beauty vlogs here on KZfaq. I debated for a while about starting a channel because of my age and kind of felt like I had to compete with so many of these young women with beauty channels. But, as of now I have to say that the KZfaq community has been amazing to me. You look amazing. Thanks for this great review.

Love love love your foundation reviews! Even though I've tried this (and returned it) I enjoyed hearing your test results. I'm very oily so it didn't last well on my skin either. It looks so pretty when first applied though! I've actually heard really good things about the regular one so I may try that some day. Thanks Angie!

So informative and thorough! Thank you!

Lately I've been complaining blaming my skin for all the things you just mentioned in this video thank u so much for all this info I'm definitely going shopping quick!!!

I watch your channel religiously and I have yet to be disappointed. Looks like you have saved me the cost of foundation, a good primer (the new Smashbox Hydrating Primer, the IT Poreless Powder (I know a lot of people will say, I already had those, but you had to bust out the "big dogs" in your last attempt, so it must be factored in the total net cost!

Hi Angie, I have recently subbed as I really like what I read. I am 84yrs young and still feel the need to look pretty. What would be a good foundation for me I have combo normal/ oily T. Thank you.

Love this series! I am so glad you are doing this!

I got this about 2 weeks ago and I love it. I was in a rush this morning and I put on my primer..Loreal revitalift miracle blur oil free..Maybalene fit me matt and poreless 115 ivory..all with my fingers..I may go darker next purchase. Went on quick and easy. Finished with blush..Elf pressed mineral blush..and last my Rimmel stay matt 001 translucent. Its now 9 39 pm and I have only lightly dabbed my t zone once. I look the same as when I lft this morning.I may go for the matt powder with ths line next also to see if its better than Rimmel. You looked great on camera at the end of the day.

Loving your tutorials and reviews!

I have tried the fit me and did not like it. I have only recently started using foundation, since age 51. I am having such a hard time finding one I like, keep buying them and then giving away. I have lines around my lips and eyes and these all seem heightened by foundation. The one I have found most flattering is the revlon photoready. Although it has very fine sparkly bits in they dont make you look sparkly, just give a nice luminosity. It also diminished the sign of my wrinkles. Your tutorials are really in depth and so truthful it very helpful, thank you for sharing and therefore saving me money.

Timely review, I had been thinking of giving this one a try. You saved me money, thank you. I am probably in the minority on here, but I don't like wearing primer under my foundation. Most of the time I feel like it makes my foundation move around instead of staying put.

I love your reviews. Specially up close photos! I really appreciate your effort. X

I'm in my 40's and I have used the fit me foundation, yes I always have to put primer and powder with spray to set as well, didn't like it, so I went back to using my Marykay foundation. The foundation always stay on longer.

Forgot to mention how I use the Covergirl ready set gorgeous.... I use the smash box primer water, then I apply it with a damp Beatty blender ( takes very little to get amazing coverage). Then a light dusting of sephora mineral powder and then finally elf setting spray. That lasts on my 45 year old very oily skin about 12 hrs . It even lasts through my horrendous hot flashes ( more like meltdowns lol) . Any way, I'm loving your foundation reviews and am looking forward to seeing the rest in this series .

Great video. I now look forward to Fridays to see your reviews on foundations for mature skin. Wonderful job.

Love this series. I also ordered the Timeless Vit C per your suggestion and I love it! Thank you, Angie!

Would love to hear your thoughts on BECCA ultimate coverage foundation, By Terry terribly densiliss foundation and Tom Ford long wear foundation. Keep up the good work!

Great review! I have this foundation and completely agree with your assessment. Love your thoroughness with the different applications and pictures as well as sharing some of your day :-) ♥ Elle

I am so happy to see someone making this kind of Vlog as I too have been searching for the "Holy Grail" foundation at age 58. I recently started using Lorac Natural Performance Foundation and LOVE IT! I would love to see what you think of this foundation.

Hey Angie......thank you so much for this review. The no pump is a deal breaker for me right away. Love this shade of yellow on you......wishing you an awesome week-end :)

Thank you so much for doing a drugstore brand. I have tried Fit as well which I did like several years back but as i am now postmenopausal it does not look good on my skin at all. Thank you again for drugstore brands:)

Angie, you look just beautiful today! All of your colors suit you so well. I am interested in all the foundations you review, even though I know some of them I would never try (like this one!). Still, very good info & you are so thorough. Thank you for doing these & have a great weekend - Becky

I used this foundation four different times... and looked like crap within hours, lol. I was disgusted and threw it away. Great review as usual, Angie! I'd like to see reviews on setting powders. Translucent, oil blotting but leaves a nice finish for mature skin.

I just gave two bottles of this makeup to my great niece hoping that it would wear better on young skin. I will have to ask her after maybe a couple weeks to see what she says. Very nice review. Blessings.

I really didn't like the matte and poreless one, but had much better luck with the dewy and smooth one, and I'm not one for dewy anything. Give that one a try too!

Thanks for doing these reviews -- my big pores and wrinkles appreciate it!

I've been watching you on YT for not very long time now, and already watched most of your foundation videos. Your reviews are perfection! So detailed and reliable. I also love your calming voice and personality. I greatly appreciate your UV protection videos, the best ones on the Internet I suppose, great content. :) I like and share your attitude towards skin care. I myself have issues with my complexion like enlarged pores, redness and wrinkles, and I'm 35. Thus, I'm always on the hunt for a skin base that would make me look simply better, but still natural. Of course, I haven't found the Grail so far, but certain foundations suit me better in different times of the year, when the needs of my skin are changing. If I may suggest you some foundations to try out, that would be of Clarins - Everlasting, Guerlain Lingerie de Peau, Givenchy Photoperfexion and the one from the No Surgetics line. I also find the Smashbox Halo Liquid as a good one - doesn't get into pores, doesn't accentuate them and any lines, however I wouldn't call it a classic foundation, but sth more of a tinted cream. Yet I'm not sure if they are available in your country at the moment, some of them are not new. I live in Poland, so there are significant differences among the cosmetics on offer. The one I haven't tried out so far, happens to be the one of your bests, Invisible Fluid Makeup, Estee Lauder. It's on my short list to test :) It's a pleasure to watch and to listen to you:)

Totally agree. For me it went on beautifully but after a few hrs. I looked not so good, Lol Great video!!! Thanks xo

I love your video reviews,I feel you are extremely fair and do your comparisons in the exact same light, closeness and all to show the results you have gotten. I am as you over 50, and am presently watching the over 50 foundations, yes,it is certainly a challenge. My question is which maybe 5 or less do you love and use,maybe I have missed that video, you may have already covered that? I will be purchasing the Tart primer and I believe that you like the Elfe setting spray, can you give me a little help on the foundations, thank you, Maggie

Angie,please try the Diorskin Forever...I love it,it´s my favourite and I have very oily skin and big pores.I always use a damp brush to apply it,because it dries fast, and don´t use too much, because it´s high coverage!

I look forward to your Friday foundation videos, what a great idea! as always very informative and very helpful! thank you

what wrinkles? you have a gorgeous complexion..i am not enjoying this aging prosess. i remember putting my makeup with no concerns about making myself appearing older..honestly i think im about to rock the skin care all naural look.... it looks better than when i put on makeup

Amazing review ❤️👍🏻

Another great review, Angie! I was always curious about this foundation, but now I know it wouldn't work for my aging skin either...I'm older, older!!! You looked beautiful as always even if that foundation was a big flop. I have watched all of your skincare and makeup reviews and you have helped me so much in making better choices in both areas! Have a wonderful week enjoying the warm weather, and I'm looking forward to your next installment! You are the best!

Love, love, love this series -- thank you! I'm pushing 50 and have yet to find a foundation that doesn't look mask-y on me or breaks up or highlights my very large pores. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that you find a holy grail foundation ... I'll be the first to run out and try it!

Great video and series. Very thorough as always. Foundation ideas: 1. Bourjois Healthy Mix or the Serum Foundation and 2. Cover Girl 3-in-1 the newest one. Thanks a bunch for the work and detail you always deliver. :)

I love your reviews!! you are my favorite KZfaqr, I am only 25 but I really enjoy watching you!!! Take care!! you so beautiful!! =)

Great review Angie. I've only used this foundation once or twice. My skin is more dry than oily so I figured it would work better for me in hotter weather. I also have the Fit Me powder, it's pretty nice. It's so frustrating to find the perfect foundation for older skin since our skin changes almost everyday. What worked yesterday looks blah on the face today! And especially hard to find anything to hold up all day long without having issues. I like your "Foundation Fridays" series. xoDebbie

I love this new series.

Love your comparison videos. I am also on the search for the holy grail foundation so I am very excited that you are doing the research for over 50. I bought the Tarte creaseless eye primer that won your test and I love it so I can't wait to see which foundation wins.

Nice to see you in a foundation Friday 5 years ago, and how you looked back then which I think is GREAT🤗 I'm not so sure the foundation received a fair shake though, since it has now lasted for years and there must be a lot more good points than bad From women of all ages. Just saw 2 more reviews from this year (2020) this week by women our age who gave it big thumbs up, keeping in mind it is a drugstore foundation. Anyway, where did the time go? 2015 seems like YESTERDAY to me!! You looked SO GOOD!!👍🌹

I have been loving Rimmel 25 hour with comfort serum. Ily your reviews!

Thanks Angie for this review on Fit Me poreless-matt foundation. I use #235 along with primer, setting powder and setting spray and really like it. I am also trying WetnWild Photofinish to see how that works out - I hope it is better!

Another great review. I have tried the smooth & dewy and the mat. Both do not last long or wear well on me either. I was wondering about if I used it with a "higher end" primer and setting powder/spray etc... Well, you've answered those questions. Thank you for doing this series.

Your skin looks beautiful in this video. Yellow is your colour Angie.

Your skin looks great! Thanks for this series.

You can purchase a pump for that, and many other drugstore foundations at MP Beauty!

I am watching Dr. Oz and they just showed your picture when talking about retinol! *****

Try also the Maybelline Age Rewind foundation, the Super Stay Better Skin Foundation, and the Dream Liquid Mousse foundation. They introduced another Dream formula in a tube... but I can't find the product name now, it was just introduced and has a promotion at CVS if you get that coupon in your computerized coupons.

thank you for doing this series! I'm really loving Covergirl ready, set, gorgeous foundation and the powder foundation on top. I use the NYX hd concealer. These are working really well for me, dare I say HG? I've been trying other foundations (Lancome, Nars, Tarte...) and nothing has beat it yet. I'm 49 with combo/oily skin.

You should try Bobbi Brown's Intensive Skin Supplement Foundation. It's derived from the Serum. They also launched their new corrector and concealer from this same line formulas. It's a treatment foundation and concealer and targets all the key signs of aging. Everyone I put this on over 40 has looked fantastic.

Great review Angie and Thank you . Can you do a review in loreal true match please not the lumi.

I haven't use a liquid foundation on my problem pore area in years. I just have not found a liquid foundation that does not accentuate the pores. I usually use a translucent powder on the area (my nose) and then apply Bare Minerals Bisque. Then I apply some more translucent powder. Sometimes I use the BE mineral veil or the IT Bye Bye Pores as powder. Using the powder first kind of invisibly fills in the pores so that when I use the Bisque it doesn't fill the pores and make them more obvious. Another coat of translucent powder does a little more camouflage and I'm done. Thankfully, it is just the tip of my nose I have to do this to. If my whole face ever fills up with pores I am in big trouble. I prefer liquid foundation but have yet to find one that can stand up to pores. Wayne Goss has a video on how to use liquid foundation on pores but for me it only lasts a couple of hours and then that area is a mess again. Would love to find a foundation that really worked well with pores.

HI ANGIE....GREAT FABULOUS REVIEW!!!!!!!! I have DRY skin & YES....WRINKLES.....GRRRR!!!!! THANKYOU SOOOOOOO MUCH FOR SHARING YOUR INFORMATIVE VIDEOS....LOOKING FORWARD TO MORE!!!!!!!!!! 😊😊😊😊😇😇😇😇☝👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍💐💐💐💐💐💐💐

Hi Angie, Firstly I just want to say I discovered your site last year and love your approach. You're also looking better and better, ageing and beautifying with such grace!! I am approaching my late 40s and have a slightly oily t-zone but often dryish cheeks. Am very interested to see your review on the new Bobbi Brown Intensive Skin Serum foundation spf 40. The Laura Mercier Photo edition (non spf) Hydrating Silk Creme foundation is so tempting too! Thanks again for all your fabulous sharing!

Angie, I LOOOOVE your reviews, to me they are, by far, the most accurate and genuine. Thanks for doing that. Also, I have a question: do you use a wet or dry sponge to apply the foundation?

You should opt for silicone/gel based foundations

I'd like to see Dior Forever & Star, Laura Mercier Smooth Flawless & the oil free Silk one, L'Oreal Infallible.

I have been REALLY wanting to try this foundation for quite a while! I have just been holding off because I already have 19 FAIL FOUNDATIONS in my drawer. I pretty much have normal skin, but recently had 2 small dry patches that are annoying enough to make me just want to dump everything in the trash! - lol! I just recently started using a facial oil (only for about a week) and in can really see many differences that I was not aware of to start with! As always, your wonderful & best regards! - - Donna

Great review as always...I swear you have saved me a ton of moolah! Thanks for being so thorough...I really appreciate it! Cheers!xo

Loving this series!!

This color looks great on you.
