TESTING IL MAKIAGE FOUNDATION.. I took the foundation quiz.. My honest thoughts

but I'm a little confused, it's the same

foundation

that smells quite strongly of paint, so this is where things started to go downhill, well it's about time I reviewed this

foundation

. I don't know if it's just me and maybe the kind of thing I search and google but I've had an ad for this foundation maybe every day for the last few months, this is a brand I've never heard of before, it's called ill machiage new york and the way they advertise. This thing on my Snapchat ads and my Instagram ads and on Facebook is that you take a test and it's supposed to tailor the foundation to you specifically, so I went ahead and

took

the test and chose my foundation and today I'm going to test it and how to put it on. test all day long, maybe a full 10 hours.

I actually have the foundation on my face right now. Let me know below how long you think it's been on my face. Leave me your guesses. because I'll be interested to see what this looks like too, if you've also tried this foundation let me know what you think below and if they got your color matched correctly because I'm curious, I haven't done that as a review of the foundation tests inside for a while so I'm really excited about this one I hope you enjoy it so just a little breakdown of this base and the ads I got the main ads I get on my Snapchat are those damn headphones some like the sun. the kissy face serum and ill

makiage

foundation, as you know, I'm pretty sure I may have screen taped it, so when I got the ad, I swiped up and it says, take the

quiz

, Take our power matching

quiz

to find your perfect shade, then give it a try.

It's risk-free for 60 days, here's what happens with the quiz. I'm going to guide you now. I screen recorded myself when I was ordering this so you know I can show you my exact results so the first question I think is a little weird it asks you about your skin type dry oily mixed or balanced so obviously I put oily and then it says What type of coverage are you looking for? I put medium to full but they only sell one foundation on their website. I'm pretty sure so I'm a little confused why it asks you about your skin type what coverage are you looking for what finish are you looking for matte natural luminous or babes I have no idea so I answered oily and then natural finishes, then it shows you a series of photos and tells you asks you to choose which one is closest to your skin tone.

They have a good range of shades. I'll give you that and then you choose the images you think of. I look more like your skin tone right now, so that's what I did and then it says, let's try to figure out your undertone, so I put that I have a neutral tone because I'm pretty sure that when I look at my veins, I have both blue and green during this time of year. Does your skin tone tend to lighten or darken? My skin doesn't really tend to lighten or darken because one I wear sunscreen all the time and two because I fake tan, not real so I never get the natural tan I used to have but now I decided to do it fake so as not to damage My skin.

Do you know how you normally apply it with a beauty blender? brush with my fingers and then I ask you all these questions that I don't really understand how you prepare your skin beforehand, like why does it need to know that when they only sell one foundation, I'm really confused about how many days a week. Do you use foundation? What brand are you currently using? How long have you been using your current foundation? Does this only collect information about you? I'm a little confused so I'm going to ask you what your biggest skin concerns are, what your age group is and then it finds your match and then it asks you to pin your email which is a little annoying because I don't want to subscribe to the newsletters, I get enough of them already, so a job like this is perfect for me. space foundation which weighs in at £36 in the UK which is an expensive foundation so it was definitely on the higher end of things and is supposedly my perfect match, it matched me in shade 60.

It comes in 50 shades which It's pretty good, so I tried it now, add it to your cart. I checked it to verify. I paid it. I think I got in. I think I randomly typed "Welcome 10" just to see if it worked because I've tried it on many websites like. write welcome 10 many times it will give you a 10 discount, but then you will have to pay for delivery. I actually ordered this, I think four days ago, and it arrived today and then it's like, do you want to try the concealer? No, because that's another 24 pounds no thanks so you go to pay this is what's confusing in an advert it says you can try it for 14 days and if you don't like it you get your money back when you go to pay it says it has a money back guarantee of 60 days money and then when it arrives you say where for a full week to determine if it's perfect for you, so is it one week, is it two weeks, is it 60 days?

I'm not really sure I know what. I'm going to go over all that again. I won't force you to go through the entire process. I'll try the quiz again and see if anything different comes up. Maybe they have other foundations because at the beginning. At the end of the day, if they only sell a foundation, they don't need to know what kind of coverage you like or what skin type you are or how you prep your face or how old you are or what your skin concerns are because they will always guide you to the only one. base, all they need to determine is what shade you are.

I'm probably going to dry it off. I'm going to put a light coverage. I'm going to put it. I want a bright one. No. I'm going to put a light covering on you. Pon, I want a matte finish. I'm also putting it at 50 and up just because I'm really curious so this time they recommended the exact same foundation. I woke up like this flawless foundation foundation. It's the same base. So the whole questionnaire. Which I think is just to make you feel a little better by saying, "Oh, this foundation suits my skin, but it's actually not the same, just a different shade.

I think it would make a lot more sense if they were offered as a mate". foundation a natural radiant foundation and a glowing foundation, so it arrived in this elegant box when you open it it says untraditional, uncompromising, undeniably extra, it comes with this little card that says over 75 women make mistakes with foundation, get the yours well, apply two pumps to your entire face, jaw and neckline, blend with a brush or sponge, not with your hand, wait five minutes for the foundation to set before checking that the shade does not match your neck or doll, they are a different tone than your face, finish your face with concealer. blush and bronzer and use it for a full week to determine if it's perfect for you, then the packaging itself is quite stylish, it comes in a cute little magnetic box, however to recycle this box I will have to tear off the magnets.

Because you can't like just throwing a magnet on recycled cardboard, I mean it's fun to play with, so here are the claims: smoothes and evens skin, minimizes the appearance of shadows and pores, improves complexion and Creates a flawless natural matte finish. The cutting-edge formula offers a unique combination of medium to high coverage a super comfortable lightweight feel is ultra fluid and easy to blend the texture applies effortlessly allows for buildable coverage that fits all needs for long-lasting wear pair it with a foundation or a setting spray which you get 30ml which is the standard for foundation it comes in a nice frosted glass bottle which I think is quite pretty it comes with a cap and it also comes with a pump which is great because I thought maybe I'd like to pour it. and I don't want to thank you, so I applied this earlier in the day just because I had a meeting and I wanted to continue it as long as possible, but I didn't have time to film the whole video. and everything so I'm going to insert my clips of me applying this foundation now so I have a meeting in 20 minutes on zoom and I want to do her makeup and I also want to try this foundation every time.

The day is actually 208pm however I usually stay out until about one in the morning and two in the morning so this will be on for a few hours so this is the time right now moment, so like I probably already said. It was paired with the shade zero sixty so I'm going to give it a shake it's like a frosted glass bottle I have no idea if this is going to match me It looks a little dark judging by the packaging I'm obviously going to match my fake tan it's so my face is currently a little lighter, but obviously I want to blend my face with the rest of my body.

I like that it has a pump because I was a little worried that it wouldn't. I just made about a pump and a half, it smells pretty strong like paint. I think I'm going to do this side with a sponge. I probably put a little less on this side. You know, it seems like a pretty good color combination. and then on the other side, I'm going to go ahead and use a brush. I think it rusts a little because this side looks a little darker. It looks pretty good with both the brush and sponge to be

honest

, but I think for me I would like a little more coverage than this so I think I'm going to add another coat and see if it can be built up.

I think with the second layer I'm going to use my beauty blender, you know what? Guys, I'm impressed with that. In-camera color matching. I think my lights lighten me up a little bit and make me look a little clearer. Let me see if I can fix that temporarily. Looking at the tube I was worried that this would be too dark. I actually think it's a pretty good color combination. I would say it's medium coverage and the finish is definitely not matte, but it's not super dewy either. I'd say it's somewhere in between. Oh, and I also forgot to mention that everything I did.

My skin was normal, so I already put on my primer. I think it looks good. I think it looks pretty smooth. It doesn't feel too heavy. I don't think it looks too doughy. I think it looks pretty natural. Nice, it hasn't made me look super flawless because I wouldn't say it's full coverage as I need to put concealer on my blemishes and obviously under my eyes, but so far so good so I'll go ahead and finish it. the rest of my makeup, oh my god, I have 15 minutes until I'm eating, so I'm using my two-sided concealer born this way in the shade almond, you know, I mean in the last five minutes it's almost dried a little bit more to be a little bit more matte, I mean it's obviously not matte, but it's a little bit less shiny than it was when applied, yeah, everyday, I don't usually go for things like that. a full coverage foundation anyway I usually wear more medium and then add my concealer and I'm pretty good too oh my gosh while I was filming this video I found out about an hour ago that Taylor Swift is releasing a new album tomorrow. at five in the morning and I feel that she has put me in a very good mood.

I haven't put on lipstick but I have to wait, so this is me with the rest of my makeup done. I think it looks pretty good so far. Well, I'll get back to you in a few hours, so it's 2:28. I would finish laying this foundation at 2:15, so I'll get back to you later. So this is me in natural light an hour later. I just have to say that I have to spend the last hour in a meeting smiling, like I smile super big, but that has meant that the foundation is definitely starting to sink into the lines of my smile just because I've been doing this for the last hour and In fact, I have another meeting in another 15 minutes and I'm sure I'll probably end up smiling in that one too, so that's the only problem today, but this is my skin in the natural light of my window, I think it's really see. nice actually just a little bit closer and obviously the natural light is a little bit more helpful so it's now 3:45 um and I'll get back to you in a moment.

It is currently 6:45. I really need to charge my phone I think I put this on like 2 15. so it's been on for four and a half hours. I also want to say that I didn't read that piece of paper like I didn't realize there was something on The other side, before you apply foundation, it recommends that you do two applications and obviously I ended up doing two applications um in terms of the Claims that it smoothes pores and gives you a natural matte finish, yes, like I said. It seemed to dry after about five minutes, so they were right about how well it lasted.

Four and a half hours have passed. In fact, I still think it looks pretty good for two hours of my day today. I have had a big smile on my face and that is why it has sunken quite a bit into my smile lines. I get it a lot with the basics if you've been on my channel for a while. um, I just have a pretty deep smile. I set smile lines, I might eventually fill them in because that's really annoying on the rest of my face, to be

honest

it looks great around my nose, it looks really soft and I have pretty big paws, yeah I don't think that's the case .

I erased any fine lines or anything because I look a little wrinkled here. In fact, I'll also show you some natural light in a second. I think it looks pretty decent for four and a half hours like it's starting to get a little bit brighter around my nose and generally on my face and stuff, this one here obviouslyIt's my highlighter, but I mean, so far it still looks really soft, other than around my smile lines, I guess everything looks pretty soft around it. The pores on my nose think that when I'm that close it makes me look excessively bright because I have like three very bright studio lights, but let me take you to my window and now we're just dealing with natural lighting.

The sun is actually behind the clouds right now and, yes, this is what my skin looks like in normal daylight. I don't use any softening filters in my videos or anything, that's what my skin looks like, but it's time. 6 53 and I'll update you in a few hours I guess I'll see if there are a lot of changes so this is where things started to go downhill so it's actually now 10 and 24 minutes so this has been on my face for eight. hours now because I put it like 2 15. I don't think it looks that bad from where I'm sitting right now, but if I get a little closer and lower the brightness, I'm definitely like greasy now um but the main thing I've noticed is that a lot of my other bases don't, but this one does.

Oh, by the way, I changed my lipstick because I was filming some snaps around my mouth, it kind of started to separate and form these weird almost clump-like types. I don't really know how to describe it, you know what I mean? Like on my chin and around my mouth, it has a really weird texture, the other foundation I find. Is this my Marc Jacobs notable foundation? um, but a lot of my other ones don't really do this weird thing, it almost seems like it sticks to dry patches, but I don't have any dry patches around my mouth on the rest of my face.

It looks good though, like on my forehead, well, I mean, obviously, when I say it looks good, it's obviously quite oily and I can't show you a natural light anymore because it's gone, but yeah, I mean it's been on for eight hours. It's still there so do what you want, so now it's 11:25 at night. I think this will be my last checkup because I've had this on my face for nine hours and I'm probably going to go and take off my makeup and get into bed. um, yeah, it doesn't look very good. Oh, I just realized.

I think my nose is itchy or something, so it looks quite oily, as you can see, and it's definitely like breaking. my mouth, which is, I don't know, it's a little weird, I haven't really had that with a lot of foundations breaking around my mouth, usually the first place I break is around my nose, but So I've been talking a lot today , I think the rest of my face looks decent due to the fact that I haven't put powder or anything on in nine hours, but I definitely want to say it doesn't look the best, we definitely look very oily. but yeah, it's just a little, I would really probably like to use this foundation again because I really like the color combination and I really liked the finish, but I would definitely use it with a setting spray next time and maybe with powder afterwards. four or five hours just to make it last, I'm sure if it did it would be totally fine, so that's the end of this video.

I guess I'll find the question of the day if you guys have any more questions, leave them below with the hashtag question of the day and I might respond in my next video. Today's question comes from Holly Humphries and she said awesome as always so thank you very much question of the day if you only had to. Listen to an artist for the rest of your life who would that be and then put brackets I'm betting money on Taylor Swift. It's funny, you should say that because while I'm filming this video, Taylor Swift's new album drops in like six hours and Yeah, you're absolutely right, I think if I could only choose one artist to listen to for the rest of my life, I would choose Taylor Swift so I hope they are good, I hope you enjoyed this little review if there are any other similar viral types. of makeup products you want me to try and give you my honest opinion, let me know because I can definitely do it.
