- “It just feels like perfection”▶ 3:33
- “It's got some pearl reflex in it that keeps it looking like skin, but it just has the most incredible wear time while keeping all of that pearl reflection”▶ 3:36
- “It sets down so well and it feels thinner actually than the L'Oreal to me as well”▶ 3:47

- “It really really smooths out my skin”▶ 5:07
- “This is really nice for somebody who really wants their skin to look like their foundation really is skinlike”▶ 5:09
- “This color is just so peach. They have no neutral olive undertones whatsoever in that line. So, that's kind of a con for me for sure”▶ 5:16
L'Oreal Paris$9.99True Match Super-Blendable Foundationshade · N1
L'Oreal Paris$13.99Lumi Le Glow Tint Liquid Skin Tintshade · 100- “This is really beautiful, but it is more of like a Charlotte Tilbury with a little more coverage than I would say it is like true skin tint”▶ 7:29
- “This has a lot of pearl reflex in it and it is very very shiny”▶ 7:41
- “It's also very thin, so it's really great for putting on underneath something that you want a little more glow to peek through and it's not going to feel heavy”▶ 7:56
Maybelline$15.99- “It is the most waterlike, lightweight, doesn't settle into fine lines, doesn't get dry and crackly matte foundation ever”▶ 8:42

- “It is kind of shimmery. They are kind of brick toned but they are so rich and beautiful in pigment”▶ 17:03

Maybelline$9.99Lifter Stix Multi-Use Face Makeup Stickshade · 45- “It seems like it blends out really nice. It has a good hold on the skin”

- “They're very pigmented, but they make your cheek look oh so beautiful”▶ 20:05

Maybelline$13.99- “This did not do well when it came out, and I was one of those people that said, 'I hate this.'”▶ 25:15

- “This is not my favorite complexion product at all. In fact, it's one of my least favorites. I cannot stand this stuff”▶ 25:56
- “It looks okay for about 3 seconds and then it'll start to like crease and not wear well throughout the day. I don't care for it. It makes me angry”▶ 26:07
L'Oreal Paris$16.99True Match Radiant Serum Concealershade · Light and 2
Maybelline$10.99- “This is probably my favorite setting powder. I mean, unless we're going to spend like $700 on a setting powder that is like I love the Hourglass powder, but for instance, if we're not spending that much money, literally, this is my favorite setting powder on the market, period”▶ 28:06

- “That was so smooth. It's so brightening in here. Well done, Maybelline”▶ 32:51
- “I like the way the L'Oreal feels, but that Fit Me is so blurring right here and on my chin. I can't I like I can't get over it. And it's so brightening in here. So, for me, that's my personal fave”▶ 33:50
L'Oreal Paris$14.99Infallible 24H Fresh Wear Foundation In A Powdershade · Porcelain- “This is again a very, very nice powder. This one does feel even in the pan like a tad more luxurious. It's got a little bit of moisture in it”▶ 33:25
