Swatch model liked shade 27N on me, I liked 29N best (forehead)… which shade do you think is the best fit?

[cesarmonroe]

Dear Maryam, actually this foundation there is a specific way to put it on. Look up on the web. When applying you really need to sheer down the most possible tapping the cushion on the lead that opens. It will deposit there the excess before putting on your skin. And dont press too hard in foundation to avoid also excess product. You put too much of product on your skin and this is way it shows more texture/pores. Really try to apply with cushion in a very smooth and thin layer. I have it and this is how it gives the most beautiful result, no cakey. No mask. Xoo

even though a bajillion people got sent all 40 shades, I haven't come across any single one of them posting all the swatches together EXCEPT YOU! it was much needed, thank you!!

It took me several tries to find a shade that worked. I’m a neutral undertone as well, but I found that the warm undertone worked best for me. Their neutral is not a true neutral imo! I like the cushion application best because it gave me a smoother application. I found there to be a learning curve to using this foundation. It works best if you start with a lesser amount and really press it into the skin. The first time I pressed the cushion in I ended up with a “mask”, but when I lightly dabbed it and worked it into the complexion in smaller sections I felt I got a more realistic look while giving me an airbrushed effect with long lasting results.

Thanks for the review. The brand's cushion makeup was viral in Japan long before it became so here. I don't have a shade because there are very few warm yellow shades (as you mentioned), and none with olive undertones. I bought two sample sets with six of each of the darker shades and still could not find a match. By the way, 'Mask Fit' means it won't rub off on face masks. Robert Welsh's video is the best I've seen using a light application technique.

Hi Maryam, I like the 29N on you. It happens to be the same one I use the most. As someone on here said, there is a specific way that it is supposed to be applied if using the cushion it comes with. Personally I find it better using a brush. Seems to be lighter coverage when doing that. Overall I find it does stay on all day. The colors are a little hard to find the right one. I actually purchased a few of these. Recently purchased the silver one and really like that on my mature skin it is better. Thank you so much for doing such a thorough review. Your hubby/partner did a great job helping. He seems to know the terminology. 😂❤

🙋🏻‍♀️ shade twin 😘 One of the reasons I started watching your channel is to get the best representation of how colors would look on me. I stayed because you didn’t promote every single product you got in PR!
I wish I’d waited to see your review before blind buying this… I had the EXACT same application experience. 😮 Still haven’t gone back to try to make it work.

[meghanamehta]

Haven’t used this or another cushion foundation before but I’ve seen a couple of videos that describe the right application method which is leaving some of the product off on the pallet (the bit you open to the side to access the cushion) before you press the cushion to your face. Hope it helps but it seems that’s what gives you a slightly more natural application.

[truewants]

Appreciate you being able to swatch all..loving the staying power especially on combo skin in humid climate!!

[amandalarson]

Shade twin right here- I am half Asian and can pretty much trust that if a shade works for you, it will work for me!

[aja.m.lareau]

Great video as always! I feel like they did a pretty good job when it came to listening to concerns with the shade range of the OG red. They started with like 20 and have since added 20 more shades, which is huge for K Beauty lol. There should be a more even amount though between the different skin tones. I would hope they’ll be extending the range with the other 2 foundations as well

[ejj]

Can I just say how much I love the "swatch model" 💗💗 so impressive 🥰. I've been curious about this product, however I tend to pass on a product when I have a hard time finding my shade. And I've heard mixed reviews. I think it looks nice on you. But I still think I'm gonna pass. Thanks for your always thoughtful and thorough reviews 😘

[RaelNikolaidis]

Frankly, I don’t like coverage this heavy over all my face. It’s aging, IMO. That is a personal choice, of course. It just isn’t my preferred aesthetic. I’m not a skin twin, I watch because your honest opinion is one I trust.

[marilynace]

Eh! I felt this was hard to apply. Everyone kept saying I was applying wrong but for as many foundations are on the market I’ll skip. Thanks for your honest review!

[b.k]

The viral campaign was intense. And effective. But this is the only review I trust. Excited to hear your thoughts

[shaheennaser]

Really helpful! I had almost brought this watching other reviews where influencers swore this evened out textured skin. Not touching this anytime soon!

[sanasinnersanctum]

First thing I noticed was that there wasn't any warm shades available in the medium category, which was super disappointing. But I imagine they'll continue to expand and will eventually include more warm shades. For example there's a 29c now so I imagine 29w is inevitable. 29n was recommended for me, and I have ordered the sample packets (available on YesStyle), but I'm doubtful it'll be a match and will likely wait until they have warm shades available. I did see some people complain that the neutral shades were leaning yellow, but luckily for me someone posted a picture of 29N compared to Estée Lauder's 4N1 shell beige and it's definitely a neutral, which doesn't help me. Also, many people have mentioned the shade oxidizes darker so maybe getting a shade slightly lighter than your exact skin is better, like how your swatch model liked 27n on you. But it's hard to tell from my end watching it on screen and you didn't mention oxidation so maybe it wasn't an issue for you? As far as texture, others have already pointed out the recommended application process and TirTir offers a milky toner that's recommended before applying the foundation. Despite all the quirks and challenges though, I can't wait for them to come out with more warm shades because there seems to be a lot of pros and given the price point, I'm really interested in seeing if I can make it work for me. And as you pointed out, they have other formulations for people preferring something more dewy or more matte. If I can find a shade that works for me, I'll definitely play with the other formulations once their shade ranges expand as well.

[patkat]

You are applying way too much. You literally need to see a few tiny specs on the sponge to cover most of the face.

[TamaraCanham]

I think your review is the most accurate that I have watched because that is exactly what I thought when I wore the foundation. I actually thought, no, this is a fake because the reviews I watched made it seem like it smooths your skin and leaves a glass finish even though it's matte.I don't think it's a good foundation for the dry skin gallies but it wears really great. I think I wanna try the dewy version.

[teresalehtonen]

TOSS the sponge. Use a great brush and aplication. You shall love it.
