It doesn't matter if you're the last review on this product or not - you've given one of the most valuable insights on this overexposed foundation, getting into extremely honest nitty gritty details. In some ways the hype is real, but there are big caution signs (which has been the general consensus of most other reviewers I've seen); however, thank you for taking the time to lay out all the nuts and bolts regarding the shade, specific wear, etc - also, thank you for calling out the Basma stick as a contrast for texture, because that's great for me to know.

I tried it on my 73 years young skin & loved it I apply it with a brush or wet beauty blender & it looks great in this hot humid weather & the longevity unbeatable it has a learning curve the less you apply the better it looks

Thank you for this video! Love all the helpful suggestions in how best to use and apply this product 😊❤

Excellent review. I am so tired of reviews that are not reviews, they are jump on the wagon reviews. Love your channel!

I purchased 3 of the lightest shades in the mini's and I ended up with 15C as a perfect match. 13C and 13N I use as highlights under my eyes and on my eyelids when they get red. The negative reviews are from those who don't like the sheer to medium coverage which is the main purpose the Asian makeup market. Less is more!

Always in for a review of anything by you!!

This was so helpful. I have watched several videos but wasn't sure if it would be a good choice for me. I have very dry skin and I know you do too so I appreciate your foundation reviews. Your skin does look great!

Glad you gave such a good review… I love my TirTir❤ Not my “everyday” foundation… but, love it for a more made up, going out kinda vibe. Good to know the wear length you got out of it… especially in our TN summer heat! I use it with my beauty blender (just because I’m more familiar with my blender rather than their little puff), and I do dip my finger into the foundation and apply it to my more pigment prone area and blend out from there❤ I just love it!!!

The silver compact is semi glow and you might like that one better as the red is semi matte. Also, yes style has a 3$ sampler pack of like 6 colors to test before hand if you need.

Looks beautiful on you!

It looks absolutely amazing on you Shelbey. Gorgeous 🎉

they have one for dry skin! It is in a black compact and I LOVE it! ❤️

Bought it 2 weeks ago in 24W, 23N, and 21W for my NC 25 skin tone. I found that 24W oxidized two full shades darker, 23N oxidized to a shade darker, and 21W oxidized to half a shade lighter. I have tried it with both sponge and brush: with sponge, it was difficult to not overdo it. With brush it was easy to control the amount. I don't know if I'm putting too much moisturizer on but my foundation slipped around all day. Without moisturizer, this foundation is the most transfer proof of all foundations I've tried. In fact I use it on my neck and almost nothing comes off onto my white collar shirts. It does have great staying power like you noted. And I have only gotten light to medium coverage if I don't want creasing and caking.

I bought this before it went viral and have loved it since day 1! It does looks beautiful on you Shelbey! The coverage is absolutely real on this one and does so well in this crazy heat we’ve been having! I got 21 neutral and it’s perfect on me…Love your reviews!!

Great, thorough review!!! Thank you!!!

I second your review! I usually wear a 23 in Korean cushion foundations, but because I read the reviews that it oxidized and might be too peachy/orange, I went with 21W, which is fair-light yellow. On me, it goes on light, but once it dries down, it starts to match my skin pretty well. I agree, you need a very light hand with this. If you press the cushion in too hard, you can pat some off on the back of the cushion lid. I think it does tend to oxidize more if you’re applying a thicker first layer, so I apply sparingly at first and build a little where needed. Great review, thank you!

Thank you for the review! Literally just tried shade 21 N today but I’m also about a shade lighter than you. Definitely full coverage, I used it sparingly. It does set nicely, I’m excited to use it in this Texas heat/humidity because not much withstands it 😂

I tried this foundation and absolutely love it! I am upper 40s with cystic acne prone oily skin with a few scars. I use 21n because it does oxidize a bit. It’s a little light on me but know it will darken slightly. I also use 2N1 in double wear for example. Light skin tone that leans pink / neutral. I do have to set with powder and touch up halfway through out the day. The only thing I didn’t like was the puff. Mine disintegrated 3 days in :-( I have been using a soft-ish kabuki brush to apply and it works well, too. I may have to see if it is offered in a liquid pump style container - that would be perfection!

Thanks for the review. I’m going to try a cooler shade on your suggestion.

You're the only one I trust. We have similar skin tones and similar taste in general ! I might give it a go 😊

I am 75 with oily skin and I love it.

Your reviews are always so informative! I agree with most of what you said. I have normal to dry skin and yes, it's a satin finish unless you over-apply (which I don't recommend). It did oxidize the first time I applied but it didn't surprise me. I think this was developed with Asian skin in mind and they tend to have more yellow undertones. One thing that was different for me, is that it takes a very long time to dry down and stays tacky if I don't set it. But that may also be because it is SOOO humid in Florida right now. It's not my favorite foundation but I do like it. I may order it in a lighter color next time (I got 23N too). Happy 4th of July! Arlene

I use the red compact and use a wet beauty blender to apply it which sheers it out to more of a skin tint. 65 and dry Retin A skin here.👌🏼💕

I’m 60 years old with very dry, rosacea, prone, skin with some acne scarring on my cheeks… I’ve been using this for about a week straight and with proper moisturizer underneath unbelievable… You must keep it light by gently, patting it into the skin and giving it a chance to dry down I’m a personal trainer and it stays put all day long in the gym. My newest holy Grail… And I must admit I tried it with a very skeptical attitude, but have been pleasantly surprised.

Love this

this was only the 2nd foundation that made me go wow at myself (the first was the la mer one) in 30+ years of wearing foundations. some favourites are great but it’s rare to catch myself in the mirror hours after application & still go wow. that said, i 100% agree that it can be very tricky to apply & a minimal amount is all you need. to combat texture, what i do is to tap the sponge upwards while doing my cheeks to make sure that the product is evenly distributed in my pores. this is the reason people like buffing or stippling brushes because they do exactly that - push product right into the skin. on my combination skin in humid tropical asia, it is a satin finish that i still prefer to powder over. that said, it is also the only foundation that allows me to use a beautifully light and soft loose powder that is simply too airy & soft to combat shine with all my other foundations. in my experience i have not encountered oxidation, and i’m starting to think, based on reviews so far, that maybe it oxidises when paired with an oil based layer underneath. the tatcha water cream is also one of my moisturisers, on top of which i wear the supergoop unseen screen before the tirtir. the other spf worn on top of a different oil based moisturiser was bioré uv perfect face milk which is again water based. these are the only 2 spfs i have worn under the tirtir & have had no issues. sidenote - i love the eyeliner !! 💗

When I looked it up everything on their Amazon shop says that the Red package is for Combo to Oily Skin. They have a chart on there to show coverage and finish etc. I found it very informative. I am planning on trying the lighter coverage one that better suits normal to dry skin.

Im light skinned like you!!! I purposely got 21C because reviews said it oxidized and it has matched me so far! But I use very sparingly just to even out my skin…I actually use it as a concealer under my eyes too…not sure if im suppose to do that but it doesn’t look drying or cakey under my eyes at all..I have normal to dry skin. It looks so good on you!

21N with a damp beauty blender is my HG

I would love to know the lip combination you are wearing in this video! Its beautiful!

You look similar to my skin tone and i use 21n. It's perfect, no yellow at all.

Hi! I tried this foundation in the shade 24N and I am much darker than you and I didn’t like how yellow and oxidized looked on me. My skin looked flawless! But I don’t want to risk having to buy another shade that wouldn’t work for me😢 I prefer getting a sample from double wear or the new UD foundation

I’m a neutral and went for the cool. It matches perfectly and looks skin like on my 55 year old normal skin.

I love your eyeliners :) It pulls darker on me on my second half of my cycle because my skin produce more oils naturally after my ovulation. So maybe that’s what happened to you. They have a trial kit at $1 to test multiple colors and match yourself before making your final choice, I highly recommend it. If you have oily skin it will tend to oxidize more so also test it in the oily zone of your face.

How does it sit under the eyes?

Although others review it there NOT U Period , your reviews is what brings me here ! Thank you 😊 for this post ! ❤

Do you think it could be used as concealer? I really want to review it as well 😊 😻💖💖💖💖💖😘😘

I’m curious if this would be good for a body foundation? I have dark spots on my arms from picking at my KP. I’m always self conscious of my arms and looking for something to even out the discoloration I might give it a try.

Did you say Basma foundation for textured skin. Looked at transcript and it says that. If not what is the stick called

Feel the same very yellow. Asian skin is that way so makes sense that it would not be a true neutral or cool. Sent it back.

it is amazing on my scared skin. It doesn't you know get rid of it but it doesn't highlight it. I have very bad exteme red skin all ove and nothing hids it this does completely so I can actually use blush and bronzer i have como skin and it gets oily for me but if you just press it down it looks amazing again

Great video Sister

Hello beautiful Shelbey 😍

Would you say that this foundation settles into fine lines throughout the day? I know you said it dries down easily.

I disagree I don’t think it dries down at all. In fact I have to powder which I never do since I have normal to dry skin.

I have very cool pink skin . I tried before it was viral color was terrible

Shelby I am fair with neutral undertones. Are you? Trying to find a shade match ❤

I love this foundation (oily skin, pores, 57yo). This foundation likely works great in Korea & Japan/Asia--It is VERY HOT over there and VERY humid in a way that we do not have here in the US--not Savannah GA, New Orleans, LA or Florida. I think this foundation was created with their conditions in mind - weather/culture. This looks so good on me the ladies at the Chanel counter in Nordstrom asked what I was wearing as I was buying the Les Beiges Water Fresh Tint!!! THAT says it all!!

Am i the only one who HATES shopping online for foundation? It makes a world of difference to do swatch comparisons IRL... Any one have any tips?

I tried this product and it absolutely didn’t work on my skin…looked awful!

Hey Shelbey! Interested to hear your opinion on this one…

I went down a shade and bought 21n

The name Mask Fit Red Cushion doesn't mean it gives a Mask look kind of finish. The reason it's name is Mask Fit because the Cushion was released during COVID and it claims to resist smudging from wearing your mask. That's the reason for the name.

Try a mauve color corrector base when things oxidize and the shade goes too deep. At least give it a try. Jerome Alexander used to make a wheel of different colors.

The Tir Tir settled into my pores looked terrible! I’ll stick with my Double Wear!

Dang, I'm usually about a 13 in korean foundations. There are just too many to choose from. Don't want to take a chance.

Wait you did a double cleanse and it was still on your face ? Did I misunderstand you?

Great review! This is def a skip for me. Good looking out!

Holy grail. Less is more!

Why do you call the foundation "she"?

This is so strange -- that shade of foundation and lipstick looks exactly the same colour as the mortician put on my dead grandmother - when laid out in the funeral home
