Oh thank you so much!

I could listen to you all day. Your voice, the tone of your voice, your accent , the way you express yourself. Ugh so satisfying.

La Mer is my fav! When I wear it, I feel the most confident. I do the same throughout the day with it and look in the mirror thinking, “ooh, my skin looks good!” I also will get compliments if I’m around people. La Mer also has the best skincare which exists in their foundation as well.

Well done!!!! Watched until the end and it was sooooo relaxing and informative- love it ❤

Just what I needed ❤️ thank you, Charlotte 😊

You are the best! Thank you for sharing with your shade colors both winter and summer for reference; those really help, we have similar skin tone.

Yes, you do still have it! Thank you for bringing us up to speed on your favourites.

I'm so stressed over grad school applications right now that I put this on in the background for comfort. Your humor really helps lighten my mood, thank you for what you do!

Yay!🎉🎉🎉🎉I have been looking forward to this one!!!😂😂😂

Love Le Mar foundation! It’s always in my rotation.when they first launched their foundation it was rubbish. That was years ago but I love this one. I’m older, with combo skin, spend a lot of time in a humid climate in the US and refuse to wear primer and I’ll use my hands or sponge to apply foundations. I too like the TF stick and don’t love stick. Great video.

Love your makeup look in this video, Charlotte! ❤. CT Beautiful Skin has been in my top drawer for a couple of years, but never quite #1. It has really only been in the past year where I have realized how wonderfully this product works with my skin and undertones, now holding top spot and my most used foundation ever. Full stop. I am in my early 60’s and have a straight forward complexion, no major issues like to wear foundation sparingly only on areas where I need a little help. Yes, this one was a creeper, took me awhile to appreciate its perfect simplicity. So glad you have rediscovered! ❤

Great presentation and I think we look for similar qualities in a foundation. Completely agree with you on La Mer as I have tried 3 shades and am still needing to try another soon. I find the Natural shade a bit too pink for my neutral warm complexion. I just got the Louboutin liquid foundation and I think it’s so similar to double wear that I may not keep it. It’s just slightly thinner in my skin which is nice. I really like your upbeat videos!

girly we need a tour of these drawers, I feel like your love for base products speaks to me. would love to see what else you have kept on hand

Love your channel and your humor! 😘

You make me HAPPY!

Dior, haus labs, Shiseido synchro skin, EL futurist and PML are some of my tops 😊great ranking video Charlotte 💕

Beautiful look today-looks like I’ll have to dig out Mothership X and bite the bullet and get that LE mascara. Such a gorgeous look, with the lovely lip and cheeks. ❤

Haus Labs, NARS Light Reflecting & the Hourglass depending on the situation. Haven’t tried the Lisa Eldridge because the shade card for my skin range has been out of stock for awhile. BTW your eye look is STUNNING, the crease shade is especially flattering ❤️

Yes, she’s still got it! 💕

I kinda knew some of your order. I love the way you went into detail on each foundation. You look beautiful. Thanks for sharing.👍✔️❗

No Cle de Peau radiant My absolute fave

I love the La mer foundation, it's beautiful

The Nars is my favourite, although not tried the others. Thanks for writing your shades, I have a lot of same shades as you so it’s really helpful. The Haus labs one is what I plan on buying next as everyone seems to like that one.

We love a ranking!!!

You just make me smile 😊

Hi dear Charlotte, loved this very good ranking video!!!🤩🤩🤩🤩TF has the lavender oil, which i cannot handle, hope they ever leave it out of the ingredients, but there is so much more! My forever no. 1 foundation is the older Suqqu foundation in the black jar, have 2 back ups in shade 220, as they have another one now, still have to try the new one, want to give it a chance, but this is my most loved foundation! Super to hear yours, Charlotte!!! The La Mer and the Chanel also gave irritation on my skin, but from Chanel i do love the Sublimage foundation, especially in winter! Hourglass was to cakey on me, the Nars one, i forgot how beautiful it is, thanks! The Haus Labs i purchased, gonna try soon, Prada, a maybe, not now, still have so much. Louboutin i think a no. CT, really don't know, every foundation i tried from her was a disaster, but maybe this one is an exeption? Loved this!!!! Thanks, enjoy your day!!!😘😘😘😘

I love the Suqqu the foundation.. Medium coverage, skin like... perfection

I love the NARS Light reflecting and DM Yummy Skin Tint it’s sooooo natural it’s my favorite!!! Thanks!!!! 🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍

lol...I HATED the Nars reflecting foundation... my daughter tried it and hated it too. Crazy how people can feel so differently about a product. I usually mix foundations to get exactly what I want anyway. For example, I love to mix the Dior with a small amount of futurist.

Lovely video Charlotte!! Your sense of humor is the best 😂 im adding a few of your recommendations to my shopping list for the year. I really want to try the Nars one and Tom Ford 😊. Another one i want to try is the Lancome teint idole matte. My favorite right now is from Too Faced and is their Born this way matte foundation. But it's very hydrating but stays matte..i don't know how they do it 😅

Great video - foundations are my absolute favourite makeup product, and I try almost every new launch that comes to market. I am surprised that Lisa Eldridge has been knocked out of your top 10, and that Shiseido Revitalessence didnt make it , but I agree on almost every one thats in the top 10 of yours, except for the TF Stick, I tried it many years ago and found it to be too oily (even when I have dry skin) and gave it a go again this winter, but its still same for me - way to oily, it just slides around on my face :-) I think my current line-up of most loved ones are (in random order) Haus Labs, Cle de Peau Radiant Fluid and Cle de Peau Cream, Kevyn Aucoin Etherealist, Orce Come Closer, Kosas Revealer, Makeup By Mario, Glossier Stretch, Laura Mercier Real Flawless Weightless, Succu The Cream and Shiseido Revitalessence. Ops, that 11 :-D I will very much like to try TF Shade & Illuminate, but is it ever on sale at Selfridges? We only have it in one special store here in Norway and its never on sale, even for Black Friday sadly. Wish you a lovely weekend, you are my favourite youtuber :-)

Totally agree on Tom Ford ones :)

Another top video Charlotte! My top is the Prada, followed by YSL All Hours then HG Skin tint providing its used with the haus labs concealor for a bit of coverage. Unfortunately the CT Beautiful Skin didn’t do anything for me, broke up on my skin and was a bit of a disappointment. X

I was surprised the Lisa Eldridge and Shisedo didn’t sneak in there! I love my LE, but I’m almost out and was thinking I might try the Prada. Loved the video!

Yes I want to try the Shiseido too. I love Lisa but her foundation didn’t work for me, too heavy.

NARS Light Reflecting is my holy grail! If they ever stop making it I have no idea what I’ll do. It’s the only foundation where I have an absolute perfect shade for when I’m self tanned and when I’m not. And mixed together, they make perfect shades as my tan fades.

I agree with using tools for foundation instead of fingers. I prefer a brush to a sponge even.

Here are my top picks this week!! Haus Labs (now that I have the right shade), Sisley Phyto Tint oil free foundation, , Gee Beauty( new...no make up look) Primet or Stick Foundation, TF Stick Foundation(Saks sale). Not in any order..waiting to try Prada in store!!! Ty I Love this!!!😂

Louboutin foundation is my HG, and traceless soft matte fluid (with the stick version around the muzzle zone) is my second favourite

You are so stunning! Your skin is soooooooo gorgeous

You told me last year about the Hourglass Veil Tint and when it would be on sale. I bought it & I love it.

I love Lancome care and glow, Haus, TF, Nars light reflecting . I have been using the Giveanchy concealer so I'd like to try their foundation and Nikki LRs foundation roundup gave me ideas on a few more like Valentino she said is a sleeper. As is the KVD. I need new eye pallettes and since there haven't been many I need or like I've been buying lipsticks 😅

Armani luminous silk is really my favorite I think of the bunch…. It’s very similar to the HAUS labs and the Dior I can’t really tell the difference on my skin… all beautiful foundations.

I value your opinions on makeup 😊

I like the use a glowy setting spray with foundations that are more matte to help give me the glazed donut look I crave!! Iconic London and Urban Decay each have a product.

Thought Cle De Peau would be somewhere in there. I must revisit my Charlotte Tilbury foundation. Haven’t used it for months. As I recall it sits in my fine lines. I’ll give it another outing! Great video ❤

I like the Charlotte tilbury and Tom ford foundations, as well as Haus and a few others. My favorite one currently is the new Suqqu foundation. I know your summer colour would be close to my winter colour- 40.

My favourite since last year is the reformulated Lancome teinte idole ultra wear foundation. It even did well in the humid Fiji weather last October. Plus, I found the perfect shade for most of the year (a little pale for summer but I can make it work with bronzer). I only liked Charlotte tilbury beautiful skin until I got to the New Zealand summer and then it wouldn’t stay on my face either outside or at the gym. Plus her shades are a bit too yellow even in the N shades. Btw, Runway royalty lipstick is my perfect nude shade! That and Dior addict nude look, and Chanel Adrienne.

Thank you as always ❤

Current (and new!) favorite foundation for me is Dior Backstage Face and Body...she looks *devine* on my skin ❤

Awww thank you!

We have such similar tastes in foundation that it breaks my heart to not be able to try the Tom Ford foundation. I am so allergic to zinc oxide and it's frighteningly high on the list. I too pray for an SPF free version, but I have a feeling that the zinc oxide adds to the glorious finish of the foundation. Looks STUNNING on you!

I blindly trust your recommendations Happy to have you as an honest person, i bought some of these for myself and my mom exclusively relying on you You never disappoint charlotte ♥️

Yeah....i jusr ordered the Haus Labs. I did have trouble picking out the color so i hope i picked right! Oh by the way i am reading a great book.....The Whisper Man!!!!

no one does glam makeup like you! now i have to find someone who is as good as u with drugstore!

I like the Charlotte Tilbury beautiful skin but IT Cosmetics CC cream is a similar kind of foundation and i prefer it as i think it wears better and it has better coverage without looking cake-face. So many on your list i haven't tried. Recently got the Bobbi Brown serum foundation which im still trying out. Thanks for the video x

What a great video! I love La Mer until I couldn’t stand the perfume/smell. It never went away throughout the day. It is a gorgeous foundation throughout the day. I am tan buff if that helps Charlotte and I think I might be your summer shade?

I am so SO obsessed with the Prada foundation. I have a perfect shade match (which can be hard for fair skin with warm undertones) and I just find it so blurring and perfecting. It makes me feel like a doll whenever I wear it! Getting married in 2025 and it's the number 1 choice for wedding foundation. Btw thanks for the video, excellent as always! 😊

Hey Charlotte..u d my fav ❤nd urs favs are my fav🥰❤️nd m enjoying my hourglass foundation a lot😘

U are so funny, u always make the day better. I had my eye on a few of these but to tell u the truth im just a skintint girl . I love the TF shade and illuminate but it breaks me out bought it last summer and i am so bummed and i really want the new primer but scared that is going to do the same. I think its the SPF my skin doesnt agree with sof filters unless they are korean for some reason. I am not normal i don't want 1 of anything 😂im always wanting more .

My favourite at the moment is the Chanel SUBLIMAGE L'ESSENCE DE TEINT Ultimate Radiance-Generating Serum Foundation - with a dash of Givenchy Prisme Libre Loose Powder in voile rose

At first I wasn’t into the ct beautiful skin, and now it’s 100% my fave with the Dior forever skin glow

Hi Charlotte yes my favourite too but chanel number 1 is second , but no its got to be Tom Ford its beautiful ! in fact i use it every day these days . because my skin looks so good.

I had to leave my favorite Chanel foundations due to the heavy perfume scent they all have now. Just found Chanticaille Future Skin Gel Foundation - light to medium coverage, fragrance free, looks lovely on the skin but PRICEY. By the way, love your humor (humour) and your British accent - I could listen to you all day. XO from the US

I enjoy your videos - your skin looks so beautiful! What are your feelings about the Dior Forever Skin Glo or Forever Matte formulations? I try many foundations, but I return to these every time. They wear all day so faithfully. Also Nars Sheer Glow? Shiseido Radiant Lifting? Charlotte Tilbury Beautiful Skin was always beautiful for a couple of hours, but then wore off too much on me. Anyway, we have options, thankfully!

My no. 1 foundation is the La Prairie Foundation. Buildable coverage, lightweight and super natural and refining.

Try the Estee Lauder in a tube and Very Valentino, YSL All Hours or Pat McGrath Sublime Foundation, Giorgio Armani Foundation, or Dior Forever Glow Foundation.

I bought your #1 Foundation today!! The whole first half of the video I kept thinking WOW Charlottes skin looks so flawless and youthful and just brilliant! I even looked to see what you were wearing. Then at the end of the video you explained your experience with the TF foundation. So…when I found it for 50% off today, I bought it. For Americans, check your local CCS, shades were limited.

Try Surratt Due drop foundation. It kicked out the Tom Ford shade and illuminate foundation from the first spot for me. Even better finish and does not have SPF!

I like make-up that has squalane in it. My favourites are Ilia and ANNEMARIE BÖRLIND Anti-Aging Make-up. Both totally in my price range and on top of that they organic!

My Lisa Eldridge items are arriving today!

I love foundation videos 🙂💝

If you need a full coverage matte then try Lancome Teint Idole 24 hr. For more hydrating the Lancome care and glow foundation serum.

The Urban Decay HydroManiac Stay Naked Foundation is BEAUTIFUL. Great natural looking coverage and a healthy glow. I’d love to hear your thoughts on it. ❤

As you can tell i don't like SPF in my foundation i love to put my own on. I would love it if ND came out with a foundation this year, if it's anything like the concealer, it will be fantastic. Prada foundation is on my wishlist. It's been on my list for about 6 months now, and i still haven't purchased it, but i will 😊

Hi charlotte you should try makeup forever he hydrating foundation and you would like it

My favourite foundation is the Lisa Eldridge one, I wonder where it goes on your rankings ❤

I'm sure you've tried it before (so I'm sorry if this is a silly recommendation), but you might give the Armani Luminous Silk (the classic not the newer finish/formulations) a shot in the shade 3.5--I'm also olive in undertone, but I'm fairer than you, and I find the 3.5 is a bit too tan for me most of the year, even when it's very blended out. Summer, though, it's pretty close on. Given that, I'm guessing it might be right (or at least close) for a winter shade for you. It's a lovely formula, so definitely one to try if you haven't!

I'm combo/oily and live in a very humid climate also mature skin and it's a real struggle to be presentable all day, working mother and only Double Wear but also Lancome teint idole, Chanel ultra wear 😅, my face have to be dry, non sticky... But i absolutely love Chanel water fresh tint and for only special occasions Les beiges 😅❤️

La Mer is one of the top foundations ever! My top 3 are Lisa Eldridge, Chanel Ultra Le Teint and La Mer. It's far better than Louboutin and Prada in my opinion. I do not like the smell of Prada foundation and I find Louboutin patchy and not long-lasting. I will try to finish Prada and Louboutin to come back to my top 3. But again, I love it for my mixt zone and pores and aging skin with a warm, golden tone.

What are your thoughts concerning Valentino foundation? It’s one of my favourite. Most of your favourite foundations are also my favourite excluding TF and Charlotte Tilbury foundation. I prefer more natural finish foundations than radiant ones. For some reason I don’t get along with the TF foundations. The stick foundation I can use but the shade and illuminate has never worked for me. I wish I could make it work because it was so expensive.

I feel the "I found perfection except...." reaction, and the overpriced elements too. My favorite foundation is Sisley Nude, I like the coverage it wears off naturally, looks like skin and most importantly is a perfect match for my skin (works with or without tan and is the only foundation I've found with a perfect undertone). Aside from price, which isn't a huge factor given how seldomly I use foundation, my only issue is the fragrance. If another version came along without fragrance I'd be happy to drop it and that's the only factor that keeps me on the lookout for a better alternative.

Hi wonderful Charlotte! Happy you put the CT beautiful skin foundation in your top 5 again (where she belongs!). I’ve recently discovered the Givenchy Prisme Libre skin-caring glow. I know, it’s not new, but it feels on the skin like Chanel n.1, but it doesn’t oxidise, so I dare say it’s even better. I’d love to listen to your opinion 🥰Thanks for your reviews!
