I absolutely love how you show us real clips from regular life. With your kids, in the morning, at nap time, with your hair in a messy bun. I love it. I’m not a mum yet, but this is so relatable and aspirational for me ♥️ Great makeup content with a lifestyle connection, but you haven’t gone to “lifestyle” content. I appreciate it so much

This is my favorite summer foundation. I use the Baked Balance and Glow, which really does glisten. I brush a little on with a fluffy brush, then follow with a tinted sunscreen. Applying a little powder foundation first helps the sunscreen to stick better. Then I follow with a regular application of the powder with a kabuki brush. I love it because I really want a dewy look, but it doesn't melt off my face in the summer. Plus, LG stuff is often on sale.

I use the CT Hollywood flawless filter with some spot concealer. I might have to give this a go. I also purchased the UD Dewy liquid blush the other day.

I remember getting a mini size of the Baked Balance and Brighten foundation powder many years ago and loving it, and actually using it up… You made me go and look up if it is still sold here in Europe and I can’t find it, Feelunique used to stock it but it seems to have stopped… dang it. Ordering from their website, plus shipping and customs, it’s almost 60€ for a foundation (with 30% off!). I’ll sit and hope that some retailer picks the brand back up. For foundations with less coverage that last well on my oily-combo skin, I love Dior Backstage. It does last really well on its own, but if paired with a gripping primer like the Elf or Milk ones and some powder it just basically lasts until I take it off…

Hi Kat. Nice to see you exploring powder foundation. I've been using powder foundation, various brands for at least the last 15 years or so. My favourite is from Australian brand, Vani T. It is a loose powder but, a little bit goes a long way. I also am using Inika, also an Australian brand, in their pressed powder(less glowy). Also Jane Iredale pressed. These are all great for coverage and longevity.

@KitschSnitch Жыл бұрын

Thanks Sara! Don’t get me wrong, I’ve been using power foundation for years but they just haven’t been my main type of foundation. I think I have 2 or 3 in my drawer at the moment, I just haven’t loved many of the ones I’ve tried (they can look powdery and cakey and wear off patchy). When I do find one I like it tends to get discontinued haha. I have tried Inika and Jane Iredale ones, but I haven’t heard of Vani T before. Thanks for the suggestions 😊

@sarasizer2894 Жыл бұрын

@Kat / kitschsnitch VaniT is my favourite! I just wish it came in a pressed version. I do spray with rosewater or similar to get rid of any cakeyness, as my skin isn't as young as yours. But I love it and it doesn't make me itch or break me out. A very dense brush will give more coverage. I love how these powders cover spots and redness.

I've been able to get the Laura Geller baked products on Amazon, most recently on Prime Day. Luckily, I don't get email from them. The products do look lovely on my face, but I find it's easy to over apply and get a made-up look that I'm trying to avoid. Their bronzer is nice and it comes in light, medium and dark shades and the lighterst is very neutral, which is good on my skin.

My favourite fast foundation was the Pur powder foundation that in Australia I bought from TVSN. I applied it with a real techniques expert face brush. Occasionally it would look powdery but a spray of Mac Fix+ solves that. It looks better the longer it’s on the skin. It’s great but I haven’t bought it in a while so hopefully it hasn’t had a reformulation.

I always loved Laura Geller blushes, they used to be available at Ulta Beauty here in the US but I believe their parent company filed for bankruptcy a few years ago and they were pulled shortly after. However, Laura Geller has been consistently sold on US home shopping channel, QVC, for a number of years. I have had the same experience with their online store… not a fan of their spammy emails, either.

You always convince me to buy things LOL. I just bought some of the non-glowy powder foundation from Laura Geller - they had a "sale" of 44% off today when I purchased. The "sale" was only for 15 mins - but of course when the 15 min timer elapsed - the "sale" didnt finish - it just came up "extended". :Eyeroll: Their website is very irritating with constant "talk to our consultant" boxes and "surveys". I did use an email I rarely check so I wouldn't be irritated by their spam.

I had a coworker in her sixties who smoked a lot, and she wore Balance n Brighten. It didn't look like makeup, just healthy skin. It's still too shiny for me now, but when I reach her age I'm going to try it. It's an extra step, but for longevity I use a skin tint under my powder foundation. Otherwise they are very handy for touch-ups.

Have you tried BareMinerals base products? Laura Gellar sucks (in my opinion) they look super powdery on the skin and if you have any lines or blemishes, it's like having a neon sign pointing at them. BareMinerals has several products you might like. The original powder foundation matte version. The Complexion Rescue in the original or matte formula is beautiful and might be exactly what you're looking for. Finally, Barepro powder foundation comes in tons of shades and it's an excellent product. These are all excellent and look like skin but I really think Complexion Rescue could be a game changer for you! Best of luck! 😚💜🤟🏻

@KitschSnitch Жыл бұрын

Unfortunately the bare pro power was horrible on my skin. Probably the worst powder foundation I have ever tried (horrible undertones - made me look grey, applied heavy and super patchy, and got oily fast!) their blemish rescue version was really nice but they’ve annoyingly discontinued it. I did buy a couple when they were being discounted, but I haven’t opened them yet. They have more coverage than this one, but on a no makeup day I prefer the look and ease of LG… but for more coverage, I’d definitely reach for the BM blemish rescue powder (I’ll never touch the bare pro again 😅) It’s interesting how makeup is so subjective haha

I think $21 shipping to Australia is pretty realistic, I just don’t like paying for shipping 😅 I’ve sent things to the US and it’s cost upwards of $50 for postage.
