I feel like Meredith must be sponsored by all the foundation industry. You would go through a bottle a week! I will stick to the more natural look. 🙃

Great, honest review. Thank you. I’m a professional SFX make up artist, who is trained in all genres. I can absolutely tell you that anyone who says this is a viable make up application, is either getting paid to do so through sponsorship, or exposure. I tried it, even though I knew it was going to be a disaster. The only reason that it turns out somewhat on camera, is due to lighting and filters, Meredith also blots the heck of it out with her fresh, absorbent sponge. Absolute waste of money, settles in your lines of your face, and in real life looks like you could scrape it off with a trowel. Please don’t waste your money on this ridiculous trend. The only place I would wear this is on a stage… maybe.

I used to wear my makeup this heavy EVERY SINGLE DAY. In high school and my early 20s. I’m 28 now and now I wear no makeup any day lol and surprisingly, I have more confidence now!

I wish someone would challenge Meredith to use 5 pumps and see if she gets the same results. Also I would like to see her squeeze her beauty blender after she's done.

Make up by Mario did her full face with half a pump and it still looked amazing 😂

My face broke out just imagining having this much product on 😂

When I learned that I was gonna need 5-6 pumps of my IT foundation with SPF 50 to get the SPF 50 protection, I IMMEDIATELY started looking for a light weight, stand alone, SPF. There is NO way I could tolerate having 5-6 pumps of foundation on my face, much less 10!! I commend you for making it as long as you did.

This looks like the look we had back in the '80's and I was in Theater.

Back in the OLDEN days we used to wear a makeup called “ Pan Stick”….. it’s only now after your 10 pumps that I realize what we used to look like- yikes!

This was truly entertaining. The most enjoyable aspect was the sense of relief I felt for you once your skin was back to clean & dewy. I know your skin couldn’t breathe! Thanks for trying this look & sharing! 🥰

I think we all knew by the title “10 pumps” there was no way this would end good🤣

In the mid 90s, I had a photo shoot at Glamour Shots. When you said the makeup felt like a mask, that is exactly how I felt!!! My husband thought I looked gorgeous, but it was SOO heavy!!! We went out to eat after the shoot and I really felt that everyone was staring at me because it was sooo much!!! The pictures turned out really great, but I COULDN’T WAIT until that makeup was off!!! Sooo glad I was able to do that for my hubby but sooo miserable wearing that much makeup!!! Btw, you looked amazing looked GORGEOUS and ready for your own Glamour Shots!!!! Thank you for doing this!!

Great example because I felt the same when I had a photo shoot with Glamour Shots! I wish I could say that the makeup looked good, but sadly it looked and felt extremely heavy. I could not wait to wash my face afterwards!! Honestly, this viral makeup routine of Meredith’s I feel only proves that she uses a filter on her videos. There is not one single person who tried the routine that looked like her.

Was there anyone that didn't get glamour shots back in the mid 90s? I remember saying that's way too much makeup and MUA said you need it under lights or look washed out. Well...got retakes because of the purple blush stripes on my face lol. The retakes were better but still way too "glamorous" 😂

I love your commitment to 'trusting the process.' You always have such a positive attitude, seeing your video brightens my day!

I so appreciate your honesty And the lighting visibility afterwards

I didn’t see the texture that you saw but the makeup did come across very heavy. Reminds me of theatre or stage makeup. I would be concerned about transferring onto other things if I wore this everyday. Thanks for experimenting with us!

I honestly find it funny how this became a big trend simply because of Meredith. This is how "heavy" makeup has been applied for years, in movies, TV, theater, model photoshoots, portraits, etc. for decades. It's not how most people wear foundation every day. I think it became more popular recently because on camera, in certain light and camera quality, it makes you look flawless without using a filter. I've seen some women wear their makeup like this in college every day, as well as a lot of older women with a lot of money to spend on makeup trying to hide their "flaws" with just a crap ton of makeup, also a lot of waitresses I've seen wear it like this. Basically it's how you wear your makeup when you feel you need to have a completely blank slate and hide every flaw and blemish, most of us don't care enough to wear it like this, but in some professions and situations when you feel the need to look this flawless for a short amount of time, it's the best method.

You really did an amazing job at making it look flawless! Thank God that you’re beautiful enough without it and don’t need it!😊

I'll bet that beauty sponge has about 5 pumps of the 10 pumps you used lol.

I love this real review, especially in all different lighting.

I agree it's for photos, I enjoyed watching you and glad you were brave enough

That's TV makeup. I have a friend who is on the news and I've watched her get this process done. But when she's on air it doesn't look anything like it does in person. It looked pretty on you.

As my daddy used to say, ‘makeup slapped on’, in belfast Norn Iron (Northern Ireland) Looks lovely on you, but ‘could scrape it off with a trowel’😆. For anyone that wears that much, thats some work you give yourself. Your barely there makeup is the most beautiful ❤️

Beautiful with any makeup or without !

Even for my Ballroom Competitions they don't use that much foundation. It's very heavy makeup with lashes even rhinstones. Never that much base!!! Even for my stage makeup for Nutcracker. I was truly worried at first, but honestly you can pull anything off and still look beautiful. Obviously, I Love how you normally do your base.😊💝💝

Looks good once it was done ❤ when you took your hairband off I was laughing 😂 really it looks great! Love your channel ❤🇨🇦💕💕💕👍🏻

I hate wearing foundation anyway, so this would be unbearable for me!

I’m late to this video but wanted to add, she did a q&a & to no one’s surprise she was a business/ marketing major. It’s a schtick, it’s made her popular & noticed, made her money & probably somewhat famous. All that being said, I seriously doubt that she goes out like this daily or at all. Her skin is flawless before makeup & I don’t think that would be maintained if this were her daily wear makeup. It’s camera makeup.

It actually looks beautiful! But you can make any makeup look beautiful ❤️

Wow!! That's an insane amount of foundation, really everything! I agree with the comment someone else said that it's like you're in the theatre and you need to have very dramatic make up from the stage so everyone can see you in the audience! Wow it's gonna take you a long time to clean all those brushes and sponges, etc...

I started watching this again and you have so much makeup on their you don't need 😄

Your expression when you moved your headband back was simply priceless, I had a true LOL moment!😀🤣😂

I love it ❤

You’re very brave. I can’t imagine!

I want you to do Meredith's technique using high end foundations its almost like you picked the worst foundation and powder possible for this and it still looked beautiful. Maybe try the estee Lauder double wear and Laura Mercier powder. Or Lancome teint idole and prism libre. Either way you looked gorgeous. ❤

🤣🤣🤣 Thank you so much for making me laugh this evening! x

WOW! You did a good job but I do not know how you made it through the day with all that on your face . I would be washing my face after about 10 minutes but I like how brave you are to try new things..Love you and your Sweet family🥰

I used to wear Revlon Colorstay, heavy, maybe 3/4 pumps. 10 is nuts.

You are so brave to do this for us, and amazingly it looked great. I can’t tolerate heavy make up so I might do 4 pumps tops and give it a whirl just for fun 😘

I think it looks pretty good 👍 Flawless!

10 pumps yasss❤ I love a full coverage foundation 🙌🏽

Your eye look was fantastic.

10 pumps is way too much, no one needs that much! I agree with Andrey that the makeup manufacturers would love us all to! It would cost a fortune! But your eyes looked stunning Milana. You do lots of lovely eye looks 🥰

I tried this when I was bored on a rainy afternoon - I never got it blended decently, and it took forever to get all that foundation off. I think I washed my face five or six times.

The way you looked at all your makeup getting dirty from the sheer quantity of foundation all over your hands and face..! I felt that in my soul! 🤣🤣🤣

Oh my gosh! You're a good sport, Milana, for trying this out. 10 pumps is ridiculous; I completely believe you were able to scrape it off! Just ick! I don't know how you stood it for as long as you did. I wouldn't have lasted 5 minutes! 😂

Really love your videos. This makeup application made me soooo uncomfortable I cringed 😬 but you look great in everything

OMG when you pulled the headband back, your face! Priceless 😂

Andre was right! The make up companies love this application process. What a waste of make up. This is what film or stage make up should be, not daily. I love the way you do your makeup. This is just too much. Lol

How brave to wear white for this feat.❤ when cost and time are not an issue. Just Crazy all day. Thank you for showing this process even if I would never do it. Intriguing 😊

Can you please do a day and night skincare routine?

You are so incredibly beautiful this seemed to age you tho I much prefer that beautiful glow that you go for xx

On one of Meredith Duxbury's video she uses 17 pumps in total 10 of one brand and 7 of another!

I do it and i blend with the damp blender but also use a prep spray as well in between. Also take into consideration what foundations youre combining. If its oil or water based and what finish they are. Which amuses me with so many influencers trying this challenge. There is some science behind this. Also creme contour. Cream bronzer. Cream blush. And dont over bake people. Light powder. Its all about blending and using products that will not cancel out. Oil ans water dont mix. Remember that.

Also- she does use a filter, and it might look good on camera, but I can not imagine what it looks like in person. She's so gorgeous without makeup.

Omgggg what lip product u used in 12:38? I want ittttttt so baddd

I think it matters quite a bit what foundation you use. This doesn’t work with thin, very oily or serum foundations. Meredith uses a matte foundation and as someone who has always used their hands and matte foundation myself (not 10 pumps though) … the consistency plays a huge role in the final result! Fun to watch though ❤

O lord that’s a lot of makeup,but got to say it looked better than I expected,just the thought of all that makeup makes my skin crawl 😮😂❤❤❤

All day wear test!!! This is a real review!!! Well not all day...a few hours, but close enough 😊

Omg. I died when you pulled up your headband 😂

Ok... so, maybe I'm nuts, but you actually made this style look good.

How much foundation does you have left of the back of your hand and in the brush?

This how we did stage makeup back in the day. I am 50. I could feel this video.

I think the bronzer is what makes it look so unmatched with your hairline. Great job blending it in though, I always get it on my hair lol

Used to do this back in the day with Revlon colorstay (back when it was great, the reformulation is not good now) When you're a teenager it works, but as an adult I assume it would awful 😂

How do I choose the right shade of foundation?

It ages you and reminds me of all 80 ‘s Soap Opera stars.

Wow!! You had the face of a movie star. I laughed so hard in the beginning. You are a hoot girlfriend😂I enjoyed watching❤️

🤣🤣🤣 That was awesome! In the beginning it was so freaky looking! hahahah But ended up pretty. I seriously would die having that much makeup on my face! I bet cleaning was cathartic!!

OMG! That’s so much foundation! Did you feel like.. I shouldn’t even see my skin.. my skin shouldn’t be seen! 🤣 Your beautiful without all this makeup! ❤

Did you touch up the lips at all or powder? It does look a little oily, to me .

I believe the chin texture problem is caused by the foundation I recommend using other foundations like estee lauder or Huda beauty, I have the same problem with the normal use its a waste of product most of it is wasted on your hands and the beauty blender

Kudos to you for even trying this! What's the point of putting 10 pumps of foundation only to buff of 60% of it with the damp beauty blender? Clearly Meredith did this on a whim and it went viral.

I used makeup remover towel to clean foundation on my hands. Work better than using soap.

Yeah you definitely going to need a deep cleanse after that make up. I have never wore make up that heavy but in the right lighting it looks fabulous.

Can you please try rms beauty 😍🙌

Perfect colour top to wear when doing this challenge too haha 😂👍....can't stand the feel of foundation on my face...I barely use a pump also....the least amount the better for me

I laughed so hard at your reaction to moving your headband😂 it was priceless! You are a gorgeous young lady!

Funeral makeup. Like, this cannot look good up close, but nobody expected a corpse to look alive.

Where did your channel name come from? Just curious.

I agree with you, even half of the pumps can work for an event. Meredith does everything for views.

Does she actually wear 10 pumps? Or does she wipe most of it off for the finished product?

Wow ! 10 pumps is insane 🤣. You totally don’t need foundation. You’ve got the most gorgeous skin ! Love your channel! Thanks for all you do 🥰 PS . You should do a skincare video. You probably do . I should have looked before I said that❤

I mean....you had to know there would be a big fat line when you moved the headband lol... Had me dying watching you rub all that foundation in with your hands! lmao

I also tried this. With the same results.

First off, very pretty...but you are right, great look for an event and/or pro headshot for professional work/job only. Second of all, it seems to be a huge waste of product. I think you could probably get the same look with less. This was a great tutorial. Thank you for showing us. Love following as per usual!!! Have a great weekend sans heavy foundation, LOL!!!

This looks like something a Drag Queen makeup routine would be !!!

I honestly thought you were going to hyperventilate a time or two during filming! You really took one for the team, today, thank you for doing so. You are just lovely and look amazing in every video; however, this ten-pump method didn't do you justice. Awesome video, though!

10 pumps! I could never. You look awesome though.

So the trend is “a mixture of two different foundations of our choice”(which must add up to 10 pumps)? One of the foundations should be a very light coverage then I would think.

God you are sooo pretty! With and without makeup 💄 ✨️ 😌 😍

Could not imagine how many makeup wipes you have used if not for cloth

First 🎉🙊, grettings from México 🇲🇽

When you moved your headband I couldn’t stop laughing. I remember Wayne Goss doing something similar to this a while ago, it was funny then.

I wanted to try this method for sh*ts and giggles but I didn't want to waste product and feel yucky, and scare the heck out of my parents and bf lol. Now I don't have to because you tried it with my favorite foundation!

My thoughts are exactly what yr husband said. This feels like a trend to make you spend all your money on makeup in the middle of an ugly period of massive inflation. People have probably had to cut back on makeup for things like food so they had to put this trend out there. I, personally cannot do this type of makeup. The money and the yuck.

If I try this look on my combination oily skin, it will be impossible to not be totally ruined after half an hour only (with the timer beginning since the moment foundation is being put on) 😂 Unless I am going for a "full of glow ✨" look 💅🏻😎👑

I have no idea who Meredith is and I know nothing about makeup. But, wouldn’t all that blending actually just be taking off all the excess foundation that you/she just put on?? Is that the reason it works??

Hahahahaha 😂 that was a great joke! Maybe should've used a Mattifying foundation! I loved that good laugh. Thank you
