I used to cake on THICK HEAVY MATTE foundation because that’s all I ever saw influencers doing. I thought that more coverage = better. The best thing I’ve ever done for my makeup routine is switch to a light coverage skin tint and spot conceal.

Me too!! Just bought the neutragena (Sp?) hydrating one I think it is called (I found it on Shelby’s video) and I’m obsessed!!! I’m 38 and super dry and I was trying to make full cover, even medium coverage foundations work on me but they exaggerate everything texture wise and look heavy. I have pretty skin and it finally dawned on me that i don’t need to cover it! I’m so happy I found her videos!

I am a medium to heavy texture kind of girl but I also need hydration. I don’t have acne scarring but I do have rosacea and that does require some pigment to cover it up. I found Tarte Foundcealer and it’s Creaseless Concealer to be really good for me. You’ll find that you use less foundation if you apply it with a brush otherwise the sponge kind of sucks it up. One thing about the Christmas concealer is that you use very little of it. It’s very pigmented and gives a radiant finish under the eyes which is where I use it because it has murmuru oil in it.

Shelby, have you ever thought about doing different models on camera with different skin types - dry, oily, combo, texture etc.? It’s hard to find anything like that on here... I think people would really enjoy seeing you do your magic on others with their skin types. It would be a great series.

Mark & Lisa - thanks heaps. I'm fifty, and was used to just thinking of everyone as a little sister or brother - now I've had to realize I'm actually old enough to be their mother 😳

I can't thank you enough for addressing and recommending foundations for we over 60 women! I'm a fan of cushion foundation AND I had a conversation with the MUA who did the makeup for my daughter, her bridesmaids and me last weekend (for the daughter's wedding) I told her about your KZread channel and the MAC Face and Body. She validated everything you said so I was thrilled that I made the purchase. Honestly, you are young enough to be my youngest child and I look to you for guidance on makeup. I've gotten some great tips from you and have purchased many now HG products on your recommendation. Thanks again!

Incredibly refreshing to have mature skin included in your videos. So many don’t bother because it’s not their demographic. Thank you for great info and inclusivity!

Holy Goodness. This video was amazing. You are so descriptive, non bias, articulate beyond belief, knowledgeable, and you find a way to offer your opinions without offending. I really appreciate you taking the time to share with us.

I like primer more than setting spray. Tbh I've noticed zero difference using setting spray or not. I've tried several. I guess maybe if it was misting or something out, maybe thered be some more protection from environmental elements??? But as far as making it last on my face it does nothing for me...primer can help a bit.

My oily skin just eats through foundation, even the most hyped for oily skin. Then I watched a video by Zabrena recommending the Soap & Glory Kick-Ass foundation. I tried it, and haven't used another since. It covers all of my sun spots and lasts all day. I also live in Florida so it holds up well in a humid climate as well.

Mature women have more disposable income. Ignore us at your peril.

You mentioned there's a powder foundation formula for everyone. Would love to see a similar video on picking the right powder formula since there truly are so many to choose from. :-)

I feel like I could never thank you enough, Shelbey. I've learned a lot from your videos, and this one is especially helpful since I'm currently contemplating which foundation to get for my mom's mature skin. Thank you, Shelbey!

I love a master class! Thank you for the amazing content!!

Thank you Shelby! You have helped a almost 67 year old man with skin discoloration the right products and method to apply coverage for my areas, that look natural!

Thank you so much Shelby for the introduction. I love that you point out our imperfections and flaws :-). So I have a lot of texture (acne scars) large pores and some melasma. Today I am using the Maybelline Fit Me Matte and Poreless foundation and applied with the Real Techniques brush. I did use a buffing motion but I can see why the pressing method would work best. Thank you! You are an angel :-)

I'd love to see a tutorial of this look! BarePro is my holy grail, but I'd love to see how you apply it to get that slight luminosity you have in this video!

I think you read my mind. Honestly. I have been gathering info as to what foundation I want to try out as my skin is aging and becoming drier. It’s sensitive, discolored, and a little more textured. Thank you for guiding me in the right direction! I love your informative videos! 💕

This was incredibly incredibly incredibly thought out, informative, and educational! Thank you!

One of the best videos I’ve seen on foundation. Thank you.

Thank you for your honesty concerning filters. Wayne Goss had a great video where he showed how he really looked without the filter. It was amazing.

Yes! I needed this video! Ty shelby!

I’m 32- and my faves are a plenty lol. I love Dior f&b, mac f&b, nars sheer glow and Clinique even better glow. I have oily skin also

I love this video. I have just gotten into wearing foundation within the past few months and this is the first video that I've found really helped me to understand why the different foundations that I've tried haven't worked for my face. I have dry/combination skin I've tried IT cosmetics cc creams, kat von d lock it, and covergirl healthy elixir foundation along with multiple primers and this video helped to realize the texture that I need to look for now! Thank you!

You’re so beautiful and informative. It’s mid year and you’re still the classiest artist on You Tube.

Simply amazing as always!! I can't stress enough how helpful a true... And because I'm aging, it's helpful to know the foundation I once loved no longer looks good on me. The foundation hasn't changed, my skin has. I'm going to try a couple that you suggest.

Thank you! This is so beneficial to me. I’ve been watching you since the bare minerals video when you had red hair! ❤️

Thank you Shelby I always enjoy all your videos and find them so informative. What I’ve been liking to do with my foundation is using something super light like a Mac face and body, skin tint or tinted moisturizer and then going in with my trusty shape tape and only adding coverage where I need it.

I thoroughly enjoyed this video! So informative! Wish I knew this info so many years ago. I have mature combo skin, use a medium texture, and press with my brush to get my best coverage. I also love the dewy setting sprays to give a fresh look to my skin. Please do more videos like this with others products, love to learn about how to use them properly. Thanks!

Shelby, I just recently found you. You have great advice and I love that you’re not buying everything on the market, and that you talked about how product is often just repackaged. Never could figure out how everyone could afford every new product that comes on the market. I’m 76...mature, combo-dry patches with “fine lines and wrinkles “. Would like to find a foundation that gives a healthy glow without looking dry and or made up to much. Will be trying some of your suggestions. Gotta go now....I’m going to find more of your tutorials to watch! Thank you for a common sense way of making me look the best I can, I do like makeup and don’t go out of the house without it or fixing my hair.

Thank you Shelbey. Great material👏

Thank you so much for your recommendations it’s really help me My favorite foundation is from YSL touché eclat Le cushion foundation , it really amazing on the skin gives light and sheer coverage but you can build it to medium .

Love this video, very informative! Love your look today. Thank you for clean, tactful videos. That is much appreciated 💞

Thank you for taking the time to explain all of this. I enjoy your videos.

Shelley, this is SO good! Everyone talks about coverage (pigment) but no one ever talks about texture. I have found just through experimenting that thinner, watery textured foundation works better on my normal/dry skin that has some texture and pores on my cheeks. I have never been able to get a foundation brush to not look streaky but I do have that RT brush so I might have to try that!

Finally! Thank you so much! So helpful! I have mature & very dry skin and kept trying to go to fuller coverage foundation... did NOT work.

This was incredibly helpful, thank you! Very well done, professional video.

After many trials and errors/fails I’ve finally found the right basics of my makeup, the right foundation, concealer, contour, blush, powder, and brows, all working together flawlessly. The other frustrating issue I was having was staying power and I’ve resolved that too by taking an extra step after using my setting spray, I lightly go over with my sponge then using a brush add another light dusting of finishing powder on my entire face including eyeshadow, brows and contour/blush. It really locks everything in place extremely well without any touch ups after 7 hours at work. I’m so thrilled! Now I want to explore and have some fun with eyeshadows (gel and powder) for some fun new looks for the summer. I’m starting my own trend with some blue shadows as I’m tired of seeing so many mauves and peachy warm color combinations that I just can’t seem to get on board with. Anyway, I hope this will help someone else have success. P. S. I absolutely love your channel Shelbey, you’re articulate and such a genuine sweet soul! 💖✨

Love that the first 2 you mentioned are my 2 go-to’s!! Wet and Wild cushion and MAC F&B. I’ve tried tons, from high $$$ to low $, and these are so great for mature/dry skin. The W&W cushion is better than high end and a quick, fast option for day. I kind of stipple it on w/the IT cosmetics heavenly lux brush, then a little buffing. Very quick. MAC F&B perfect for all other times.. especially when you get the hang of how it morphs when applied with hands. For a little more coverage but still a lovely thin texture, Tom Ford stick lightly stippled on. Only took me 62 yrs to find what works ! Thank you for all of your tips. You’re a delight.

So helpful! Thank you!

Nice, I want a video explaining sticks, mousse, liquid, creams, powders, cushion, mineral among others foundation

After watching your videos I have converted to cream shadows and trying to find my best match on stick foundations. You make me rethink every technique I thought I knew about makeup. 😉 thanks for all the good info. Keep it up!! Love your videos 🥰

Such a great and well thought out video !! Thank you for all the time and effort ! ❤️ One trick I learned the hard way is some things don't work together.. I was using a silicone primer with a water based foundation .. what.. a ..mess 😂

Thank you for this video! Very informative and you explain your points so well -

I never liked how foundation looked on my combo/oily skin until I discovered wet n' wild cushion foundation and then tried L'Oreal True Match original which is now my favorite. Natural finish foundations look best on me and I used to always choose matte until I realized it. Also I always use a buffing or flat top brush, the thicker the formula, the denser the brush I need. For the two I mentioned I use a very non dense flat top brush and it works great. I've also used Kosas tinted face oil with the same brush.

As always, great and useful information. Thank you!

You are a breath of fresh air! I am a mature woman and I have watched about 6 of your videos tonight. I have subscribed and will be back often.

Such a treat to listen to! Thanks!

Thank you so much for making this video. I bought bare minerals barepro foundation and hated how it looked so much. I was going to throw out the whole thing until I saw your video and finally realized I had been applying it all wrong which was why it was coming out so streaky and cakey. I finally applied it with the pressing method and it looks amazing!

I'm so happy I found you!! All of your videos are educational and interesting, while being soothing and beautiful to watch. It's pretty amazing 💖 New subscriber!

I found this video super helpful, thank you so much! I am finding it hard though to pick the best primer for my skin. I have enlarged pores but I'm also oily, so I'm always back and forth with pore filling primers and matte primers. I can't seem to find that perfect balance. I'm also struggling with separation in the creases of my nose and I can't figure out what I'm doing to encourage that separation. I use powder and a setting spray. Btw, I'm newer to your channel and I've found your videos just so intriguing and educational at the same time. Thank you so much!

Very helpful information! I definitely agree that there's a powder foundation for every skin type. I've always had dry skin, and now I have lines too, and I still use loose powder foundation every day. I find liquids and creams don't work well for me, even though they are usually suggested for dryer skin types.

This is really helpful. Thank you!!!!

Thank you for making such practically helpful videos! I always laugh when I see people talk about how a foundation isn’t very good because it’s clinging to dry patches and looking dry... many whom do not even moisturize well! ANY makeup complexion product will not conceal or fix skin texture issues particular to roughness or dryness. As you’ve said, some formulas are more forgiving than others, but skincare is so important for makeup prep and SKIN HEALTH. I don’t actually wear foundation, but still love watching this and gleaning the information!
