Hey Destiny, A question; I use black opal liquid foundation. But always after 3 to 4 hours or more, my face gets really greasy and when i try to retouch it with a blot powder the foundation comes off at some spots and makes my face looks really bad :S
and I just feel like removing all the make-up :(. cuz its looks soo bad.
what do u think is the problem?should I change foundation perhaps or is it because my face is extremely oily? I also always use MAC Prep and Prime SPF 50 primer before...
Your video sound effects cracked me up - LOL. Question: my neck and body are lighter than my face (don't ask me why :O) - do I still match the foundation to my neck still and use the lighter shade on my (darker) face?
i have d same prob as last week comment,my skin is lighter than yours with my chest clearer than my face i have blemishes acne scars like holes, and with all the concealer it doesn't help, pls need ur advice
...During track season last year I was getting tan...but now the foundation I use is too dark so it's like I'm wearing a mask. >_< Thank you for the tips. Choosing a color is hard for me...I tend to think I'm darker than I really I am.
My neck is darker than the rest of my body, I have this weird discoloration there that makes me wear full coverage makeup. Where else can I test the color for foundation?
I have problem finding the right foundation becuase my face and neck are real sunburned because where I live I'm more exposed to the sun, so my face/neck section are darker than the rest of my skin, which is pretty light, In this case would I use foundation that is a bit lighter than my face? Thank you :)
this was very informative thanks! i think i will purchase the Makeup Forever HD foundation when i run out of my current one.. i've heard so much good things!
I think you should match your foundation to the shade of your chest area especially if it's on show so your chest, neck and face are all one uniformed colour. That's just my personnel preference but I will say you can go a shade darker on your face or lighter to make yourself appear as if the skin tone is more even than it actually is.
@rebeccajanelove :) sooo many ways in sooo many different situations... it can be hard... I willl be updating this with more options! Thanks for your input! :)
How would it work if my neck is darker than the skin on my face?.. I know it sounds weird! But I'm Hispanic and when you are over weight like me the color of your neck tends to be darker than your face!.. It's so hard trying to find a good shade-_-
again disagree with you on the pink and yellow foundation thing,thats completly wrong. Some people are yellow toned which is light but with alot of splotches of pink. Ive seen many clients who are light/yellow but certain foundations made them look like "jaundice/yellow" they complained.The right combo of pink and yellow made them soo bright and radiant. Its all on personal preference,thats all.Our skin is very diverse.

I know exactly what the commentator said..thats why I clcoked them! you cant say "white people makeup" any better! thats just straight buffoonery!
Its annoying, white ppl make up is too light for me, and their products look weird on me. But blk ppl make up is too dark. I have yellow undertones. I have found foundations by covergirl (natureluxe 365) and (clean 165 tawny), and a la colors that match my skin really great. I also found a concealer(maybelline 30 cafe) for darker skin complexions!
@YurrahAlHadi Wow, yorue very ignorant. There is no such thing as "white people makeup". Whites dont own light skin. There are non whites who use very light foundations because they are already light to begin with. Ive seen biracials and light skin blacks for example wear light foundations! Just like dark foundations arent for "Black people". There are Indians/etc who may use darker foundations. Theyre for darker skintones in general! if you dont like it. find what you like than.
@markee871 Wow, you're very judgmental and rude. By white makeup, I meant any1 that has fair skin, the same thing with black makeup, but for darker skin. I am very aware that there's a variety of skin colors in each racial group. However, some make-ups are designed for specific racial groups and complexions. Most foundations I find in stores are for fair and darker skinned ppl, I fall in the middle. I also had a few brands in mind when I wrote that comment such as Imani's cosmetics.
@YurrahAlHadi And you are IGNORANT! there is NO such thing as "white people makeup", whites dont own light skin! Ive seen fair skinned mixed people and African Americans for example. I have also seen dark skinned Indians. So you saying "white makeup/black makeup" is ignorant and tacky. Each inidvidual is different and wants something different. If you like Imani's line..than buy it! but dont sit and talk shit about light foundation being ONLY for whites, I dont delve into it with dumb folks.
@jaxband2011 Take your tacky dumbass out of here. You make no sense. Youre most likely a sock puppet account for the other ignorant ass simpleton! I love how I used the term ignoorant and you reverse it! What you said makes no sense! so why do you bother! take whatever pieces of dignity that lay scattered and exit this video before I lay into you for real. Im the one who told that inbred that there is no such thing as white people foundation! whites dont own light skin! doy!
@markee871 Sir or miss, Whatever you are. Whites have been trademarked as having lighter skin. That's all. You just are mad because you had a bad day looking for foundation. And it's okay but who are you? Noone is trynna pick a fight, they're trying to avoid hotheads like you. Attempting to look cute by cussin your way through video comments. Don't take offense to something if you find it ignorant. Especially it just makes you look ignorant too. Take a breath and have a good day.
@jaxband2011 Shut the fuck up with your fake ass account! Whites dont own light skin! There are people wodlwide lighter than,near as light,or as light as them! I do profesional makeup,unliek your low budget ass! you know nothing of foundations. SO I suggest you close that funky orifice of yours! Im good at spotting out writing patterns. Im sure that your acount is FAKE! I dont "try" to look anything, Im not you! youre not even on my level. Go amuse yourself elsewhere you low budget bitch!
@markee871 Are you okay? You seem kinda mad at something sir or ma'am. I still haven;t looked you up yet sorry. But yeah noone is saying that whites own light colored skin. I never typed. So idk why you are huffin and puffin through youtube attacks. Aha Don't have an anxiety attack, the whole point is that you are trying just a little too hard to prove your point over someone elses. It's just a comment. Aha
@jaxband2011 You wish you had the power to anger me! Simpletons dont anger me! youre worth absolutely nothing. I was under the impression that "have a good day" means you wont be responding. But with stupid folks, they always have to get their dumb comments in! youre like a roach that keeps getting stepped on! why the hel do you keep writing "AHA", does that mean something in your Native language of "DUMBASS"? I dont deal with stupid folks like you! you need to stop HUFFIN/PUFFIN that weed
@markee871 when i saw this comment I thought you were talking to some bigot. But you aren't. You are overreacting to a girl who said that make up designed for white people looks funny on her and make up designed for black people is too dark. It makes sense. I know a lot of women, especially women who are lighter skinned with heavy yellow undertones, who have a hard time finding foundations that match them. It's no big deal.
@YurrahAlHadi try the revlon colorstay foundations... they have a very wide range of colors. I have a caramel skin tone which has always been hard for me to match with drug store foundations, and revlon has foundations with yellow undertones which is perfect for me. Also I find it funny that you match the original covergirl foundation lines. I always find them too pink, since the tradition covergirl market is designed for white people. the queen collection is pretty good though.
@sweetcandyzin I could care less for what you think. When I go into people for making ignorant comments, I go hard. The comment she made about "white people makeup" IS IGNORANT! you can try to argue it until youre blue in the face! its still ignorant! there is no such thing as black people makeuup or white people makeup! I dont know why yorue bringing up your story. I could care less. Not everyone is like you or relates to you.I dont see your comment as necessary
@sweetcandyzin again disagree with you on the pink and yellow foundation thing,thats completly wrong. Some people are yellow toned which is light but with alot of splotches of pink. Ive seen many clients who are light/yellow but certain foundations made them look like "jaundice/yellow" they complained.The right combo of pink and yellow made them soo bright and radiant. Its all on personal preference,thats all.Our skin is very diverse. African American women ESPECIALLY
@sweetcandyzin Just because youre black, and you dislike how it looks on you..that doesnt mean that other black women agree with you! and it doesnt mean that line is for white people! Asians are very fair even fairer than whites..but they use Covergirl! there are many people who are not from the white race but can wear their shades..so stop this "white people foundation" its ignorant as hell! and only shows how dumb you are! is MAC FOR BLACKS OR WHITES? ignorant ppl are messy
@markee871 the point is when she said 'white people foundation' she didn't mean it's meant for just white people, but that there are mainly light shades with pink tones that didn't look good on her. I know women who call certain brands 'white people make up' because they don't have darker shades, or olive and yellow tones that work on women of color, not just black women, but asian and hispanic women as well.
@sweetcandyzin Saying "White people foundation" only means one thing. I wont delve into it with ignorant folks. Plus many do take offense to "Women of color" because whites can also be colored too..seeing as people worldwide can be light as,near as light,or lighter than them! Italians are white but there are people whiter than them. Many light skinned black/mixed folks even take offense to that term,read its history! thats neither here nor there, u have some stupid friends to call things by race
Your editing had me lolin', thanks for the tip because everytime I try to look for one that fits, I find myself looking at colors that seem to be on the right street, right end of the street, but the wrong side of Foundation Street!!
I was surfing and found your channel. Ok, the info about using the tone of the inside of the arm to match concealer was golden!! I am subbing right now! Thanks, btw your face is glowing!
I love how you inspire and do dark skin woc tuts and reviews....We are exactly the same skin tone macnw47 STANDUP!! you go girl....and oh yeah youre very informational and professional, you just got yourself a subscriber...I'm working on my channel and i hope you visit soon!!
thanx this video was very helpful...ive tried mac, drug stores brands and makeup forever matte plus which i like alot but it tends to get orange on me. Maybe it's because im using the wrong shade. I normally wear shade 35 and wasn't sure of if i should try shade 30. I am a pale hispanic and I have yellow undertones . Also I love full coverage foundations
You are the first person I have come across that addresses having two tones in the face...THANK YOU! And the concelor tip was great. Definitely subbing. Thanks MakeupD0ll for sending me!
Thanx so MUCH for ur advise,,, I'm gonna try this I hope it works because I always grab the wrong foundation and like u said inside doors it looks like u have the perfect makeup but when u go outside it turns that u look like a clown I don't want to look like that .
What should I do? I tend to tan ALOT in the summer time, and in the winter, I'm pale! I don't want to spend too much money on foundation! What should I do?
Thanks for this update I have tried the Mac studio fix and it made me look red too!!! Omg I thought I was the only one and then I tried to take it back and they told me it was the right one for me *blank stare* umm no I will go to lancome to try there products
I can't relate to what you say specifically to darker skin women (I'm chinese with very fair skin) but I love watching you speak and listening to your opinions and advice. What you say makes a lot of sense! I usually wear the second or third lightest colors and always considered myself to have cool undertones until I noticed that I can use both yellow and pink based shades in my color...looks like I've got a mix of both undertones!
Hi! thanks for the info.! i was just wondering which is better..Liquid Foundation or Powder Foundation.? I've heard that powder foundation makes your skin look "cakey" and since i'm a newbie with makeup i want something that'll make my face look clean and natural. any suggestions?(:
thanks for the tutorial really helpful...u r so beautiful...could i request you lose the nose ring...u have so much beauty the rest is just distracting...sorry i just think the nose ring is turn off in the video
Hey destiny, u sed nw 47 made ur skin look redd i use nc 45 in mac nd i have yellow indian skin. Dont give up on mac foundationn guys! Most of the time the mua there gives the wrong color. Smh. If u have asian yellow skin maybellines honey beige, caramel nd golden r GREATT!
@HajisSaya Have you tried Shisheido, Nars or Chanel? I know that's on the high end of make up but they do very good yellow undertone formulas. I'm asian so I feel your pain... a lot of drugstores go more with the beige/pink undertones and it makes me look awful. Or try Revlon, a few of their formulas have some yellow based foundations. Hope that helps xx
@HajisSaya Makeup Forever has a WIDE range of colours. Why not go to your nearest Sephora and ask for samples that are close to your skin tone? Try them for a few days and decide which works best for you.
@shibbikitteh if you are yellow and use only yellow foundation than you will appear more flat( which is great if thats what you like) but addingpink makes you look rosier and many people love that.there are fair skinned yellow people with pink undertones.The right combo of pink and yellow made them soo bright and radiant. Its all on personal preference when it comes to this, thats all.Our skin is very diverse
hi, im an asian (filipino) i think i have combination undertones coz i have green and blue veins, anyway.. i always buy warm foundations but it always ends up looking so yellow or more of orange even if its a light shade. i buy MAC. Wuts the best foundation for Asian people? brand? color? specially in my case?
I feel like it's super hard to find the right color foundation sometimes,especially for use girls with SUPER light or dark skin.Gosh makeup brands MAKE MORE COLORS!. lol Anyway I subbed,loved the video. :D
Thanks this video makes me feel a lot better because I went to the Mac counter in macys and they gave me a really dark powder and I never use it....now im trying to get a foundation but the Mary Kay person gave me 4 different foundations to try and they are also very dark compared to the foundation a different rep gave me that I have been using.
My neck is darker than my face. What is your solution? I usually open the foundation in Walgreen's or Walmart and apply it on my face using the shade closest to my complexion. For example in the drug store brands like Revlon Photo ready I am cappuccino . Mocha is very dark on my skin . So I narrow it down to Cappuccino and Caramel . Tis Cappuccino blends perfectly .
Your beauty is very close to Viola Davis. I think she is stunning so I don't give that compliment to everyone. But I have to hand it to you. You're a doll. And your personality matches your outside!
thx so much this was so helpful! I'm really pale but i could never seem to get the right shade, even when i went to sephora and a girl that worked there did a test. maybe it was becuz she tested it on my cheeks... anyway! thx ^_^
I had a similar experience with MUFE that you had with MAC. I thought I looked so cute, but I went to the bathroom in my residence hall and it looked like I had red war paint on. I was so blown especially since I paid so much for it.
@pinkysux you can at walmart rite aid target and cvs.. in this case go to a high end retailer get a tester bring it to the drugstore and match it based on your tester :) xoxo...
GREAT GREAT VIDEO, INFORMATIVE AS USUAL. You should be a presenter or something on TV, you know when to smile and you do not ramble, please keep it up...thank you so much...
"OH MY GOODNESS" that part had me cracking up!! On a serious note i would like to thank you for ur make up tutorials. i am turning 25 this yr and still dont kno how to apply make up. I found ur videos today and i kno the beginners tutorials will help a lot. Thank you so much!
everyone says that to get your foundation to be a perfect match test it on your neck. but i cant do that because my neck is SOOOOOOOOOO many shades lighter than my face so id walk around looking pasty :/
@MissBriiSocialite I see where you are coming from,Many people like that "pasty"/bright/pale/pinup look like dita von teese or others, some like darker bronzey looks... its all Personal preference :)
Need your help....i do my foundation routine using the black opal stick foundation or sometimes the the Iman stick foundation. My foundation seem to look wrong and my pores seem large under the foundation. I'm in Guyana soi'm kinda limited with obtaining testers. Both foundations were bought outside of Guyana. Im currently using the Iman primer. any advice to help eliminate my "grainy" look?
@AbiolaSful You def have to exfoliate.. your pores may be clogged or expanded due to oil retention. I would exfoliate 3 times a week and use a matte lotion or primer to alleviate the look of large pores.. after time pore will become more refined... this also happens when/if your skin is "thick"... exfoliation is a great thing!
Thank you, thank you, thank you for suggesting the Lancome's Teint Idole. I watched this video 2/26 and 2/27 I was at the Lancome counter. I have applied this foundation every day since. Simply flawless!! Yes, I know it's only been 3 days but I NEVER apply makeup 3 days in a row. Teint Idole Ultra Suede 0 is my new love!
Extremely HELPFUL!! Thanks for sharing. =D

@jaxband2011 Shut the fuck up with your fake ass account! Whites dont own light skin! There are people wodlwide lighter than,near as light,or as light as them! I do profesional makeup,unliek your low budget ass! you know nothing of foundations. SO I suggest you close that funky orifice of yours! Im good at spotting out writing patterns. Im sure that your acount is FAKE! I dont "try" to look anything, Im not you! youre not even on my level. Go amuse yourself elsewhere you low budget bitch!

@markee871 Are you okay? You seem kinda mad at something sir or ma'am. I still haven;t looked you up yet sorry. But yeah noone is saying that whites own light colored skin. I never typed. So idk why you are huffin and puffin through youtube attacks. Aha Don't have an anxiety attack, the whole point is that you are trying just a little too hard to prove your point over someone elses.

@markee871 when i saw this comment I thought you were talking to some bigot. But you aren't. You are overreacting to a girl who said that make up designed for white people looks funny on her and make up designed for black people is too dark. It makes sense. I know a lot of women, especially women who are lighter skinned with heavy yellow undertones, who have a hard time finding foundations that match them. It's no big deal.

@YurrahAlHadi try the revlon colorstay foundations... they have a very wide range of colors. I have a caramel skin tone which has always been hard for me to match with drug store foundations, and revlon has foundations with yellow undertones which is perfect for me. Also I find it funny that you match the original covergirl foundation lines. I always find them too pink, since the tradition covergirl market is designed for white people. the queen collection is pretty good though.

@sweetcandyzin I could care less for what you think. When I go into people for making ignorant comments, I go hard. The comment she made about "white people makeup" IS IGNORANT! you can try to argue it until youre blue in the face! its still ignorant! there is no such thing as black people makeuup or white people makeup! I dont know why yorue bringing up your story. I could care less. Not everyone is like you or relates to you.I dont see your comment as necessary

@sweetcandyzin again disagree with you on the pink and yellow foundation thing,thats completly wrong. Some people are yellow toned which is light but with alot of splotches of pink. Ive seen many clients who are light/yellow but certain foundations made them look like "jaundice/yellow" they complained.The right combo of pink and yellow made them soo bright and radiant. Its all on personal preference,thats all.Our skin is very diverse. African American women ESPECIALLY

@sweetcandyzin Just because youre black, and you dislike how it looks on you..that doesnt mean that other black women agree with you! and it doesnt mean that line is for white people! Asians are very fair even fairer than whites..but they use Covergirl! there are many people who are not from the white race but can wear their shades..so stop this "white people foundation" its ignorant as hell! and only shows how dumb you are! is MAC FOR BLACKS OR WHITES? ignorant ppl are messy

@markee871 the point is when she said 'white people foundation' she didn't mean it's meant for just white people, but that there are mainly light shades with pink tones that didn't look good on her. I know women who call certain brands 'white people make up' because they don't have darker shades, or olive and yellow tones that work on women of color, not just black women, but asian and hispanic women as well.

@sweetcandyzin Saying "White people foundation" only means one thing. I wont delve into it with ignorant folks. Plus many do take offense to "Women of color" because whites can also be colored too..seeing as people worldwide can be light as,near as light,or lighter than them! Italians are white but there are people whiter than them. Many light skinned black/mixed folks even take offense to that term,read its history! thats neither here nor there, u have some stupid friends to call things by race

My neck is darker than my face. What is your solution? I usually open the foundation in Walgreen's or Walmart and apply it on my face using the shade closest to my complexion. For example in the drug store brands like Revlon Photo ready I am cappuccino . Mocha is very dark on my skin . So I narrow it down to Cappuccino and Caramel . Tis Cappuccino blends perfectly .

Need your help....i do my foundation routine using the black opal stick foundation or sometimes the the Iman stick foundation. My foundation seem to look wrong and my pores seem large under the foundation. I'm in Guyana soi'm kinda limited with obtaining testers. Both foundations were bought outside of Guyana. Im currently using the Iman primer. any advice to help eliminate my "grainy" look?
AbiolaSful 1 year ago
@AbiolaSful You def have to exfoliate.. your pores may be clogged or expanded due to oil retention. I would exfoliate 3 times a week and use a matte lotion or primer to alleviate the look of large pores.. after time pore will become more refined... this also happens when/if your skin is "thick"... exfoliation is a great thing!
