  • “Coverage looks like a natural medium”17:19–17:21

  • “There's no issues sticking to my nose, which can happen a lot”18:03–18:11

4.9Variant: 222N SunstoneHD Skin Balancing and Perfecting Natural Finish Longwear Foundation
  • “When I tell you that I have worn this exclusively for filming and just anytime I'm doing my makeup and I'm not testing other products, it has really replaced all of my other foundations”2:45–2:55

  • “It wears so well. It feels lightweight. Truly an incredible formula”3:27–3:35
  • “I think it's the perfect middle of the road because it's not matte to where it's dry, but it's also not radiant. So, it's not too much for oily skin. I truly believe that anybody would love this formula”3:32–3:40

4.8HD Skin Balancing and Perfecting Natural Finish Longwear Foundation
  • “This is a really unique foundation because they market it as like a do-it-all foundation”1:22–1:26

  • “It looks like skin on me, like a perfected skin”1:56–2:03
  • “It blurs over my pores and smooths everything, but it's not like truly matte matte, so it still looks very skin-like”2:14–2:21
  • “I think it has great wear and it melts into the skin really nicely”2:24–2:30
  • “I think it's a little bit more perfecting than their original HD Skin Foundation, and honestly, I think I like it a little bit more”2:28–2:35
  • “I just think it looks fabulous on camera”2:40–2:45
  • “I find it's very flexible with movement throughout the day”2:52–2:58

  • “This is truly a skin balancing foundation. So pretty much all skin types can wear it”1:40–1:50
  • “It has a lightweight breathable feel that corrects redness and uneven texture and this too has a soft matte finish that doesn't look dry or cakey”2:03–2:08
  • “As someone with oily skin, this one does not last quite as long as this one. They're both excellent though”2:25–2:31

  • “It's a really nice shade match though”4:37–4:40
  • “the issue that I have with this, okay, is that for all of its claims on being long-wearing, high-performance, medium coverage, whatever, we have a classic case of not drying down”5:15–5:21
  • “it stays sludgy and sticky on me”6:11–6:16
  • “It looks glorious from where you're sitting, but much like the Natasha Denona foundation, the Hy-Glam foundation that I don't really like, the issue is the feeling of it because you feel like it's just going everywhere”
  • “if I reach up and just scratch, like it it it peels off. Like if I even touch my face at all, just like it comes off so easily”6:41–6:47
  • “At 8:00 p.m., I have dry skin. This stuff should not be molten lava 8 hours after I put it on”7:41–7:49

  • “It also doesn't settle into my fine lines, pores, or texture”2:43–2:47
  • “Without a primer, I can go around seven or eight hours before I start getting shiny”2:47–2:51

Brand note

MAKE UP FOR EVER is a pro-oriented brand whose Artist Color Pencil Extreme Smudge-Proof Lip Liner is the clear anchor — a multi-use matte pencil creators use on lips, eyes, and even cheeks, praised for its versatility, pigmentation, and unique cool-toned brown shades that are hard to find elsewhere. The Super Boost Lip Gloss gets mixed feedback: some love the juicy, non-sticky finish, while others find it thin, fragranced, and underwhelming in product amount. Overall, the brand delivers reliable, no-fuss color products that work across features, but the gloss formula may not suit everyone.
