CoverGirl$12.99- “I think if you're not quite sure about the Chanel, this will give you the idea of the Chanel. It is a very similar product”▶ 15:48
- “The Simply Ageless has more coverage similar to the complexion touch, but it dries down and does look more noticeable”▶ 16:02

Kylie Cosmetics$34.00Skin Tint Blurring Elixir Foundationshade · 1 WN- “This is a very thin, fluidy texture. It has a great spread to it”▶ 20:12

MAKE UP FOR EVER$23.00- “I could actually see the Super Boost being really great for those of you that lean slightly more combo and you still want a freshness”▶ 24:09

Milk Makeup$38.00- “It goes on very similar to the Hydro Grip primer”▶ 32:31

- “It's very weightless on the skin”▶ 42:50

beautyblender$29.00- “This is one of those products that lasts forever and it just looks beautiful”▶ 45:52
- “If you are into that really blurred finish that the Kylie skin tint and the Fenty Eavesdrop has. This to me is like the dry skin friendly version of those two products”▶ 45:59
