Review: Make Up For Ever HD Primer "1 (Green)"

[MrBlettarosa]

You have a lovely complextion, alabaster.

[maomei]

your skin is flawless

[PinkBarbieSixTeen]

omg i hated this so much! it didnt help my redness at all i hated the feeling on my skin and made my makeup come off faster i returned it! DO NOT RECOMEND THIS AT ALL

[ShaeMcBrayer]

I know this question has probably been asked many times but I was wondering if this primer has silica in it and if it has that really smooth feel that most primers give off when applied. That is one of the main things I look for in primers and I dont really have a way of testing the product out before I buy. Thank you!!

[tanni]

So, which would you say is best? This, or the tri-colored Stila primer? I'm kind of leaning towards the MUFE, but I kind of got the impression Stila's primer is more moisturizing... I'm mainly trying to battle the red in my skin, though, but I would appreciate moisture. Should I go with the Stila instead? Thanks :D

[pinkiecharm]

@tanni It really just depends on what you need. The MUFE is better for diminishing redness because it's completely green but doesn't keep face makeup lasting longer. The Stila is okay at diminishing redness but also works to keep foundation lasting, brighten and diminish any sallow tones. The Stila isn't so much more moisturizing but it is thicker and leaves a layer on the skin that the MUFE doesn't.

[xxflirtywinks]

Can u do the Blue Primer?

thanks :)

[BlushingVioletta]

How would you compare this to Stila's one step correct in terms of its ability to tone down redness?

[assley95]

do u put it everywhere? or just red spots

[pinkiecharm]

@assley95 You can apply it all over your face. I usually apply to it my red areas and blend it out from there.

[jirowang110]

I would also love it if you compared this with the loreal green primer as well. Also i was wondering does this work well with tinted moisturizers as well like does the redness look with reduced. lol one more question does this cover pores well I have large pores would this smooth my skin out before applying my foundation?

[pinkiecharm]

@jirowang110 I'm am planning to review the L'Oreal green primer very soon. And yes, these primers work wonderfully with tinted moisturizers. I use tinted moisturizers 99% of the time and I haven't had any problems. Also, I don't have large looking pores so I can't say whether or not this would make them look smaller, but I don't think so.

[WinnieKongg]

Do you have the loreal green primer? Is good for it's purpose?

[Beeneelicious]

I saw in a newer video you also have the loreal green primer. Does it compare to the mufe one? Thanks

[tif4life2222]

Did you dye your hair darker like a brown? In the other videos its like redish

[pinkiecharm]

@tif4life2222 For a while I had darker pieces in the front so it looked darker brown/red but I don't have that any more.  The videos where my hair's all red are the more recent ones.

[tumamasoyyo]

HI

I BOUGHT A POT THAT IS CALLED CAMOUFLAGE CREAM FROM MAKEUP FOREVER AND I PUT IT ON BEFORE MY FOUNDATION, its green color, and i tap it on with a brush .. is it the same as this product??

and i have another question: are high beam and girl meets pearls (benefit) kind of the same product?? i have the second one.

thank you!!!!!

[bonvivant371]

Have you ever tried the Physicians Formula Green Correcting Powder or liquid?

[katastr0phi3]

what would your favorite tinted moisturizer be? i happen to like the laura mercier one.

[pinkiecharm]

@katastr0phi3 It's a toss-up between a couple, Laura Mercier's and Jouer's.

[LostWondr]

I use the Smashbox green because it seems to work well for me, and I love the silky smooth finish it leaves on my skin. How would you compare the feel of the MUFE and the Smashbox versions?

[pinkiecharm]

@LostWondr I disliked the Smashbox green primer. I think the MUFE has a better consistency and leaves my skin feeling more smooth and not so weighed down.

[nekoteya]

Thank you for this video. I've been curious about this product for a while. I also suffer from redness as I'm very pale as well. I'll definitely check it out. :)

[cryiingroses]

would you review the NYX orange under-eye concealer? i'm skeptical about the outcome. :)

[dancingqueencdt]

can you do a reveiw on the philosophy peppermint bark duo??? Thanks!

[makeupjunkie72]

Thanks for the review. I have a lot of redness on my cheeks, so I will definitely consider this product on my next trip to Sephora. If at all possible, could you please do a review on the Make Up Forever HD Microfinish Powder? I would really appreciate it. Thanks :)

[zebraprint22000]

can you review NYX's new HD foundation, thank you : )

[carlylivelovebeauty]

is this really worth the money??

[hottfry98]

sorry this is off topic.

but can u do a video on how to get smooth lips?

because wen i apply lipstick my lips are really chapped and it looks

horrible. and the color looks really bad.

HELP!

[MegaMakeup12]

@hottfry98 Try the chapstick moisturizer lip balm. It works really well on my chapped lips. I use it under lipstick and just wearing it by itself. It really helps especially because my lips sometimes bleed because they can get very dry especially in the winter. Try the chapstick moisturizer though you won't regret it.

[danni1211]

About how much does it take to prime your face? I tried this once, and maybe the reason I didn't like it was because I used too much..

[pinkiecharm]

@danni1211 I use very very little of this because I don't need a lot to achieve the effect I want. I'd say I have half a pump per section of my face.

[MegaMakeup12]

Primer seems like a waste of money. I just put my makeup right on my face and it lasts all day. I think that makeup companies just want you to spend more money on products you don't need.

[pinkiecharm]

@MegaMakeup12 I agree and disagree with that. I think color correcting primers are fantastic and work well for my skin. Foundation primers I'm still a bit on the fence about because I don't think they all work at keeping my face products lasting longer or looking better throughout the day. I do like Stila's Hydrating Primer because it keeps my skin more hydrated all day, and Revlon's Natural Primer and Korres Anti-Aging Primer because I think they do work well.

[MegaMakeup12]

@pinkiecharm Can you feel primer on your face? I am just wondering. I don't like when you can feel products on your face. I may try the Revlon Natural Primer just to see how it works.

[pinkiecharm]

@MegaMakeup12 It depends on the primer. Some of them feel heavier than others. I've found that the silicone-based primers feel more weighty than non-silicone primers, but it isn't so heavy that it bothers me.

[nolly9]

you have really nice clear skin! :)

[rwwar]

looool i love your timing. i was just about to request you to review this product.

[CalicoCatMissPeachs]

Hi, Do you know if the Revlon one has silicone in it? I bought this green one and I am so fair I thought it made me sort of ashy looking. I had to take it back. Maybe I need to try it again. I still have redness and just use an extra layer of foundation and some concealer.

[pinkiecharm]

@CalicoCatMissPeachs Yes, I believe the Revlon has silicone in it. Most foundation primers do.

[swtnsoursora]

i really love your reviews Irene :) I dont really leave comments on videos but I do watch all of your reviews and I really appreciate that you take your time making these videos :) Thank you so much and have a wonderful holidays<3

[AmyJayn]

I'd just like to point out that "Don't like it? Don't watch it" makes no sense, to figure out if you like it, to form an opinion, you'd have to watch it. You can't unwatch something. Just sayin'.

[TheKittyLover91]

lol @i am not google

[dashawtyuwish4]

Can u do a review on the too faced enchanted glamourland palette ?

[iluvbleach212]

How does the L'Oreal Studio Secrets Primer in Green compare to the Make Up For Ever HD Green Primer?

[mariimiimii]

hello !

first of all, i wish toy a merry christmas ! you tottaly deserve it !

Your reviews are the one I trust the more, so I wanted to ask you if you coul review the new one by one mascara from tge volume express collection i believe from maybelinne. thank you ! :)

[thepamperroom]

Great review! This product sounds great for me. It is a shame that I can't buy Makeup Forever on their website any more!! Have to get a friend in one of the big cities to send it to me. Merry Christmas!

[tulsan2]

A great dupe for this is the L'Oreal studio secrets primer in green :)

[pinkiecharm]

@tulsan2 Yes it is.

[glamcandy2]

i was wondering about this product and the smash box one too thank you

[MusicByJenny]

Great reveiw!!

[LotsofLove06]

YOUR REVIEWS ARE THE BEST! <3

[nanimo8]

Haha your phone rings i like, every video :P

[Ashley04missy]

Could you please review some of the products from the JK line its only at target i think its called jsomething kidd

[tulsan2]

@Ashley04missy Jemma Kidd and yes please ;)

[nunu1388]

Happy Birthday! (Sorry if I got the day wrong, I just remember it's around Christmas!)

[mexbettyboop]

I love your reviews!

How does this one compare to L'Oreal Studio Secrets Anti-Redness Primer?

Merry Christmas!

[SmiLeLoVeDaNce1732]

Could you please do a review on the new HD Foundation from NYX??

[MsLaylaBug]

pur minerals has a green primer also...have you ever tried that one?

[justxaxlittlexlost]

thanks ive been thinking of getting this

[Mizzanon163]

Could you please do a review on the SLEEK palettes as I really want to get them and am wondering if they are good quality.

[Cathee45]

Would this work with powder foundation? Or only with liquid/creams?

[ginger15]

have you ever tried the monistat chafing gel that is supposed to work like a primer? i heard that its cheap and its sold at drug stores.

[kellyshmellly]

I know Loreal has a relatively new line of concealers, including an orange and green tinted concealer. Could you possibly review on the green one to see if the Loreal concealer is a good lower cost alternative?

[loka78910]

@kellyshmellly the loreal one is great I have a lot of redness in my skin and it covers that really good

and yes is less expensive. also has a little bit of shimer but nothing to worry about

ciao

xoxo

[XxdrknssXx]

besides the revlon primer, what other drugstore primers have u tried?

thanks, and great video :)

[Sli114]

Have you tried L'oreal's studio secrets anti-redness primer?Would you mind tell me the difference between these two?

[julial1114]

I have been using this primer for a long time and I love it :). It retails for $37 in Canada. It's super expensive, but it lasts a long time because a little goes a long way. :)

[candycanefaery]

I was wondering I know you tried the L'Oreal Studio Secret brightness one I believe but have you tried their redness correcting one and did that work for you? Any possibility of a review/comparison?

[TheFashionSpaz]

you look so young, your skin is so pretty! :)

[moshimoshiumeboshi]

The Fusion Beauty green primer is also really good, I feel, though it's even more expensive than the HD one D:

[TheSickman1977]

excellent job. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

[lifesizebarbie27]

What foundation do you like to wear with this primer?

[DreamsiclesMeltAway]

@lifesizebarbie27 She prefers tinted moisturizer

[lifesizebarbie27]

@DreamsiclesMeltAway I know, I heard her say that but I was just wondering if she had any foundation reccomendations. Thanks though!

[DreamsiclesMeltAway]

@lifesizebarbie27 She recommends Napolean Peredis China Doll and Maybelline Superstay 24Hour. Also, the Revlon One Step Complexion and the L'Oreal Matte Morphose.

[xoleahdaniellexo]

can you do a review on laura mercier tinted moisturizer?

[Dest0o]

Would you say it's better than the l'oreal green primer as well?

[ButRachaelsays21]

im so frustrated i want a green primer should i get makeup forever or smash box

[Popstheglock]

would you say it can be comparable to the loreal paris studio secrets (in the green one). I own the Loreal Paris studio secrets primer in No. 2 and it is to brighten the skin and I find it to work pretty well. Just a recommendation if you would like to try out the Loreal one for a fourth of the price-- although it is 0.68 ounces. Plus it has a pump! :D

[pinkiecharm]

@Popstheglock I do think they're comparable, although I like the consistency of the MUFE more than the L'Oreal. I have reviews coming up for the L'Oreal green and brightening primers soon. I just didn't have the L'Oreal green primer when I did this review.

[gjcheng]

@pinkiecharm I was going to ask you about the L'Oreal green one too! excited for that review in comparison to the MUFE one! 

[Ashley04missy]

Would it be okay to wear just the primer without foundation over it?

[ButRachaelsays21]

@Ashley04missy never thought of that 

[elhouceima]

Hmmm not all the text i wrote was displayed. Anyway if someone wants to know how it cinpares to loreals green primer just ask ;)

Siham

[elhouceima]

This way my formerly pinkish/orangy unused foundations get to be used and they last longer and better on my face. I also get a slighty natural mattifying effect from it.

[elhouceima]

I have been using the MUFE green primer for a few months now and still have more than half of the product. Initially i used it for my red cheeks and chin. But because my redness had faded i found a great other way to use this product. I have a very yellow undertone, and way too much pinkish foundations in my stash. So my new routine is to mix a bit of this primer with my foundation and i can see the color changingna tiny bit lighter and way less pink/red/orange. This has been working si great f

[CielleRavyncatt]

Is it easy being green? I couldn't resist.

[MissGlamophonic]

i like your old intro, its sassy and funny. hahaha thanks for doing all the review, have a great christmas :)

[allthatjazz54]

PLEASEPLEASEPLEASE do a review on the laura mercier silk creme foundation in depth by itself! :)

[Tanguay1]

Have you tried the Korres primer?

[mandaxleslie]

thanks for the video this really helped. =]

[loveryou001]

i already have this primer & i got it for the same reason cause i have reddness around my nose & cheeks but whenever i put it on it seems to be moisturizing at first but when it's about all rubbed in it gets tacky and harder to rub. i tried the normal white one at sephora & that one rubs in really nicely more like a gel.

i've been keep trying it on & off but it always makes my whole face look green.

[iluvgarbear]

i bought this about a month ago and i feel the same way totally. i suffer from roseacea and broken blood vessels in my cheeks and I too feel it is worth the $. I was joking with the girls at sephora that I might end up bringing it back if I ended up looking like the incredible hulk! Love this primer would recommend it to anyone who suffers from alot of redness to where using concealor is jus too much of a bother because of being such a large areas to cover.

[skarletyeah]

Awesome!!!

[LeslieGoddess]

Do you think it would be a bad idea to use this with another primer too? I use the hour glass primer but I would try anything that will get rid of the redness on my face and not be noticeable. Thanks

[pinkiecharm]

@LeslieGoddess No, not at all! I often use tinted primers with regular clear primers and I haven't had any problems.

[undercoverXXlove]

could you review tarina tarintino's pearl glow primer please? <3

[gymnast725]

Happy Birthday Irene! :)

[yengbren]

have you done a review on the revlon primer yet? if not, can you do one please?

[ssaemblog]

@yengbren I think she's done a review.

[0hpalpitations]

so happy 4 this review! i bought this primer over a year ago, but i found that it accentuated the uneven texture on my cheeks due to keratosis pilaris. anyway, i'm going to try it again by mixing it with my moisturizer and applying it that way. i rarely use liquid foundation (if i do, i use mac f&b), i mainly use mac msf natural or laura mercier mineral powder. unfortunately i recall a green tint to my face when i apply this primer, but do you think these powders will be enough to cover that up?

[anniixa]

Im glad you got rid of this intro... it makes me sad haha.

[BurnInMaLight]

HOW DO YOU HAVE SOOO MUCH MAKEUP AND SHIT???!

[makeupbybethjune]

@BurnInMaLight She buys it. =]

[BurnInMaLight]

@makeupbybethjune yeaah lol, shes rich 

[pinkiecharm]

@BurnInMaLight I don't recall ever saying that, but okay....

[LetsMakeUp21]

@BurnInMaLight That's a bit rude isn't it!? I don't know how you were raised, but my mum brought me up not to question how someone can afford what they have. As long as she's not stealing it (which im pretty sure she's not!) it's none of our damn business. God.. what a stupid comment. Seasons greetings eh? ..

[BurnInMaLight]

@LetsMakeUp21 WOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW dont get your panties in a twist, calm the fuck down its just a question, to me thats not rude i grew up where we didnt have much stuff it just amazes me, im just amazed she has a lot, im admiring not being rude, and i know its none of my buisness on how she gets it, jeeeeez

[LetsMakeUp21]

@BurnInMaLight Haha chill out love, i just get pissed off when people are saying that ALL the time on the internet.. and omg "panties" haha that made me laugh.. im guessing you're american :) Anyways, i grew up with money and without.. (its complicated) and i was ALWAYS told that asking anything about peoples financial situations was wrong.. which i think is right? Infact i know it is, especially on the internet.. haha JEEEEEEEEZ :p

[BurnInMaLight]

@LetsMakeUp21 ahaha sorry i didnt know that it was rude to ask, well i guess i know now, thanks, and yes i am american lol

[rmkim86]

yayeyayeyaye ive been waiting for this review. THANK YOU SO MUCH! love your channel-- i always come here to check up on products i want to buy. im def gonna pick this up!

[tinaluvsbunny]

what is the point of disablingg comment rating ???

[pinkiecharm]

@tinaluvsbunny The point is because I want to, and there must be a point if Youtube created the option. ;)

[NYCfeline]

I miss this intro!!!

[condiment42]

About how long would you say a bottle lasts you?

Thanks.

[pinkiecharm]

@condiment42 Of course it depends on how often and how much you use, but I think my bottle lasted about four months. That was using it every other day to every day.

[summerlovin72]

Does this add a greeny tinge to your face though?

[pinkiecharm]

@summerlovin72 I covered this in the video.

[KrazGrl200]

@pinkiecharm can you do a makeup collection

[stairwy2heven]

@summerlovin72 no

[iheartmac2010]

merry christmas or happy holiday. have a good new years... :) nice review.

[rmbb10]

Good review.

[HarajukuEthan]

i love the hd primer!

[MakeupCoutureTV]

@HarajukuEthan I love it too! I feel like you can't even see the red mark when I use it. And it doesn't get dry and flaky like some products on pimples, etc.

[OrngePeel]

Thanks for doing this review! I was wondering if it was worth the money. My sister has rosacea so I'll have to tell her about this.

[oneworld24]

why cant i like any comments??

[TheCutie123pie]

@oneworld24 i know right. i cant either!

[ssaemblog]

@TheCutie123pie She disabled comment rating.

[Somantha21]

@oneworld24 I was going to like your comment.. but can't! lol :(

[lipstick816]

i am currently using this, it's kidds of great, no steaky and quite comfortable with enough coverage

[funfun0909]

Irene, you are doing such a fabulous job! Keep up the great work! <3

[hollybee43]
