Speaker 1: Hey Beauty, It's Jamie Joe and Jesse Massou and welcome
Speaker 1: to Skinfluence, a podcast dedicated to beauty, fashion and self love,
Speaker 1: turning your weakness into your uniqueness. Before we get started,
Speaker 1: we'd like to acknowledge the custodians of the land on
Speaker 1: which we record the gallicill people of the Urination. In
Speaker 1: today's episode, we are going to be chatting through our
Speaker 1: top five favorite foundations for any occasion. Everyday, formal events.
Speaker 1: We've got you covered, so let's hop into it.
Speaker 2: So, when me and Jamie were growing up, we actually
Speaker 2: never used to wear foundation up until the age of
Speaker 2: Probably how old were you when you started wearing foundation,
Speaker 2: Probably not till I was twenty one. Yeah, I've probably
Speaker 2: started wearing foundation a bit more since I was just
Speaker 2: twenty Yeah, actually probably since nineteen when I was having
Speaker 2: problematic skin and I was a bit self conscious as well.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: So there are a bunch of different reasons why people
Speaker 2: do wear foundation.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I think for me, I really had beautiful, baby smooth
Speaker 1: skin for a long time, and I only started to
Speaker 1: wear foundation once I realized that it makes your whole
Speaker 1: entire look much more.
Speaker 3: Get seamless, and even every day.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 1: I used to just pop on a little bit of
Speaker 1: concealer blush and muscara, but now it just doesn't have
Speaker 1: the same effect. As my sin gets a little bit older,
Speaker 1: I just need something to even out the tone.
Speaker 2: So you're struggling with like pigmentation or like just discoloration.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and you want to soaven it out. Yeah, as
Speaker 1: someone with tan skin, my body is so much darker
Speaker 1: than my face. I don't know what it is, but
Speaker 1: my face is always much more ghastly and white. So
Speaker 1: even if I have nice skin, I need to just
Speaker 1: even it out with like a little bit of a
Speaker 1: tint on an everyday basis. Otherwise I really look sick.
Speaker 1: I don't know what's going on. It's winter, probably do.
Speaker 1: So what's your go to skin tint? Because I know
Speaker 1: I have one that's different to yours. Yeah, well, my
Speaker 1: favorite one is the Summer Friday's Skin tint. It is
Speaker 1: so good. I did get it in PR and I thought,
Speaker 1: what's this tiny little bottle? It's tiny, Like it looks
Speaker 1: so thin and small, but it actually has thirty meals
Speaker 1: of products, so it's a decent amount of product in there. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and it is just a beautiful tint. What I mean
Speaker 1: by a tint is this really doesn't have any coverage
Speaker 1: at all, but it does just have a little bit
Speaker 1: of color and bronzeness that it's going to add to
Speaker 1: the face. And I use a tint quite a bit
Speaker 1: darker than my actual skin color itself, and it really
Speaker 1: blends so beautifully.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I think when you like put it in your hand,
Speaker 2: it looks so much darker than it's gonna be. But
Speaker 2: then once you because it's so light coverage, it like
Speaker 2: seamlessly blends into your natural exactly.
Speaker 1: Well, what I do is I actually just put moisturizer
Speaker 1: all over my face and then I just add a
Speaker 1: few drops into my hands. After of the tint, I
Speaker 1: rub it and then I literally just buff it into
Speaker 1: my face with my fingers. Yeah, And it just creates
Speaker 1: a really seamless application and it looks beautiful for every day.
Speaker 1: It looks like skin like almost like I have nothing on,
Speaker 1: but now my face matches my body.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: And I've actually seen people pump it into their moisturiza themselves,
Speaker 2: like and then mix it into their moisturize and then
Speaker 2: put it on their face. Also for that that even
Speaker 2: apple location, so you could even try that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, especially if you like go to a school where
Speaker 1: you're not allowed to wear makeup.
Speaker 3: But they won't want a little something.
Speaker 1: This is the perfect kind of product for that. Or
Speaker 1: it's really great for like retail just anything every day
Speaker 1: where you don't want to put a lot of effort in.
Speaker 1: You rab it in. It's like done so easy. But
Speaker 1: it is a little bit expensive.
Speaker 3: It's quite expensive. Everything's expensive in my opinion these days.
Speaker 1: Yeah, when you look at beauty these days, like the
Speaker 1: prices are skyrocketing. But it is a beautiful product. So
Speaker 1: it is seventy dollars and it's lasted me at least
Speaker 1: six months now, and it's still heaps of product less
Speaker 1: because a little goes like.
Speaker 2: A really long way with this product. Yeah, you don't
Speaker 2: need to like this product on my skin tone. I
Speaker 2: just I felt like it was too orange on me.
Speaker 2: But you have a different complexion, so I probably just
Speaker 2: need a different shade.
Speaker 1: I think you just need a different shade. Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: quite warm. It's a quite warm color that I use,
Speaker 1: but I really love it. So you can just buy
Speaker 1: that at Mecha. It's also easy to like keep in
Speaker 1: your car and your emergency kicks.
Speaker 3: So it's so tiny it is.
Speaker 1: I love the packaging. Its keep packaging.
Speaker 2: Can we compare it to it's like the laroche pose
Speaker 2: sunscreen packaging the Drunk Elephant Oh no, it's more like
Speaker 2: the drunk Elephant drops.
Speaker 3: Yeah, those brunzing drops exactly.
Speaker 1: Okay, what's your favorite one?
Speaker 3: Hey, mine's actually pretty new.
Speaker 2: I've only been using it for three weeks because you've
Speaker 2: got center in pr but it's the Ilia Super Serum
Speaker 2: skin tint. But it's also an SBF forty as well,
Speaker 2: so I think because of that added product into it,
Speaker 2: it's a bit thicker, which I like because I do
Speaker 2: sometimes have like breakouts here and there. So just like
Speaker 2: the extra coverage that I think that this product have.
Speaker 2: It's still really nice for a skin tint, and the
Speaker 2: fact that it has SBF is great for everyone that
Speaker 2: like obviously in Australia we need to be covering our
Speaker 2: skin even in the winter.
Speaker 1: It's just easy to use too that you don't have
Speaker 1: to use two separate products. You don't need SBF and
Speaker 1: a skin tint. It's just all in one.
Speaker 3: And I think the sunscreen adds to the glow of
Speaker 3: the product.
Speaker 2: Definitely, start looks supernatural super glowy, but it does give
Speaker 2: you a bit more coverage than the.
Speaker 3: Summer Friday's tint. Would you're wearing it today, I'm wearing it.
Speaker 1: I'm wearing the summer Fridays today.
Speaker 3: Yeah. And like Jamie, I this in with my hands
Speaker 3: most of the time.
Speaker 2: If that's not working that day for some reason my
Speaker 2: makeup doesn't want to work every day, I can just
Speaker 2: buff it out with the brush if it looks a
Speaker 2: bit patchy as well. This one is eighty dollars and
Speaker 2: it's also thirty meals.
Speaker 3: So, like we said, it's expensive skin tints.
Speaker 2: These prices are looking quite expensive, but because you're only
Speaker 2: using a little bit of the product, it can last
Speaker 2: a long time. But still it's a little bit of
Speaker 2: an investment, it really is.
Speaker 1: But this brand is so beautiful. It's actually new to mecha.
Speaker 1: It's got some stunning products, like they have blush stick.
Speaker 3: Their liquid products.
Speaker 2: Are beautiful and like when you use them in conjunction altogether.
Speaker 2: I use their conceal and they're blush today as well,
Speaker 2: And just like the overall look is always so beautiful,
Speaker 2: so beautiful.
Speaker 1: What can I describe the brand as? It's very like clean,
Speaker 1: it's seamless. It does give that clean girl kind of esthetic,
Speaker 1: but in a very nice Australian way. I just really
Speaker 1: think it's such a.
Speaker 3: Beautiful brand and glow as well.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the packaging is gorgeous. Child.
Speaker 3: Now let's move on to more of like fuller average foundations.
Speaker 1: But we do have an affordable option for you guys,
Speaker 1: because we know these are like ridiculous prices, but it's
Speaker 1: affordable to an extent. Even drugs all these days, their
Speaker 1: prices are quite high and.
Speaker 2: Going up, like compared to when we were younger, Like
Speaker 2: looking at these prices and like, hmm inflation.
Speaker 1: Literally so true. Okay, it's the Mabeline Super Stay twenty
Speaker 1: four hour skin tint. We have mentioned this before, but
Speaker 1: this is a staple. We use this all the time,
Speaker 1: and I would say this is the next level up.
Speaker 1: So even though it does say it's a skin tint.
Speaker 2: It actually has a lot more. It has way more
Speaker 2: coverage and it's a foundation. To me, I think it's
Speaker 2: a coverage foundation exactly.
Speaker 1: I definitely put it in the foundation like space. It's
Speaker 1: not a skin tint at all. This is going to
Speaker 1: even at your skin, make you look really smooth, pawless,
Speaker 1: it's built glowy, like you.
Speaker 2: Can use a tiny amount and like it would be
Speaker 2: considered a skin tint, but if you put a normal
Speaker 2: amount for like as you would a foundation, it's really buildable.
Speaker 1: I would say it's a medium coverage medium coverage, and
Speaker 1: then you can definitely build it up to full coverage.
Speaker 1: But the thing with this is this Mabeling product is
Speaker 1: literally just as good as any high end product I've
Speaker 1: ever used.
Speaker 3: Yeah, honestly, it lasts all day.
Speaker 2: When I've got like a big day of work or
Speaker 2: like events and stuff and I'm going from X to y,
Speaker 2: like from morning to night, this one actually does last
Speaker 2: all day.
Speaker 3: The only thing I'll do is like powder up a
Speaker 3: bit before the night event because it's quite a really good. Yeah,
Speaker 3: you can like kind of get the sweaty.
Speaker 1: Book, but it's such a beautiful foundation. And as I said,
Speaker 1: this is kind of that in between. It's not super
Speaker 1: full coverage, but it's definitely not a skin tin. So
Speaker 1: this is something that if you like more coverage, if
Speaker 1: you've got acne on your skin, if you have rasatia,
Speaker 1: if you have discolouration.
Speaker 3: This will pretty much covery.
Speaker 1: It really does, like even at the skin so beautifully.
Speaker 1: I don't know what maybe Ly put in that bottle,
Speaker 1: but it's so good. Okay, So you can really get
Speaker 1: this for twenty to thirty dollars.
Speaker 3: But you can probably get it on a deal half off.
Speaker 1: Well that's what i'd say. It's around twenty dollars when
Speaker 1: it's on sale, yeah, but if you're gonna get it
Speaker 1: not on a sale, it's around thirty bucks. So it's
Speaker 1: pretty good. And it's thirty meals of product as.
Speaker 3: Well, which is also a good amount.
Speaker 1: So it's a good amount. It's going to last you
Speaker 1: quite a while. It's just a really really staple. And
Speaker 1: I would say the color range is actually really good
Speaker 1: for skills.
Speaker 3: Good colour range.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the undertones are quite beautiful, like this one Jesse uses.
Speaker 1: It is honestly my favorite.
Speaker 3: I think he ever puts on color match for me
Speaker 3: that I found.
Speaker 1: And with someone with like teniin like an interesting undertone,
Speaker 1: it looks beautiful exactly. Yeah, it's so good. I love it.
Speaker 2: Okay, let's move on to like the higher rand full
Speaker 2: coverage like luxury foundations that we love and swear by.
Speaker 1: Okay, we have two. Now, I've got one that I
Speaker 1: use every time I have an audition every time I
Speaker 1: go on stage, and I will never stray from this product.
Speaker 1: It is the best of the best for stage makeup
Speaker 1: and really just any formal event, really.
Speaker 3: Long lasting foundation.
Speaker 1: It's so gorgeous. It's the do your face and body foundation,
Speaker 1: and it really is designed to work for runway models
Speaker 1: for photo shoots. That's why it's so good for stage makeup.
Speaker 1: And it's eighty dollars from door. But but fifty meals exactly,
Speaker 1: this is fifty meals. Every other thing we've mentioned is
Speaker 1: only thirds. So when you put it in comparison, fifty
Speaker 1: meal for a high end lasting to your foundation is crazy.
Speaker 1: And this, I mean, I know makeup expires, guys, but
Speaker 1: sometimes we don't stick to those rules. I've been using
Speaker 1: the same bottle through three professional productions.
Speaker 3: And how many is how many is that?
Speaker 1: That's been over like two years?
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't get anyone, No, I don't think,
Speaker 2: so you still got more and it still looks just.
Speaker 1: As it's so good. I literally used it through Hamilton,
Speaker 1: through like a little indie show I did, and through
Speaker 1: West Side Story. I was outside in the rain dancing
Speaker 1: and I would come off and I had a full
Speaker 1: beat on and all the other poor girls like their
Speaker 1: makeup and.
Speaker 3: Yeah it was off, it's sliding around.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So they have a beautiful skin rate, like skin
Speaker 1: color range and this how can I describe it? It
Speaker 1: feels like nothing on your face. It's so weightless because
Speaker 1: it's just that thin consistency, yet it's still coverage.
Speaker 2: I use this my formal and I had just come
Speaker 2: back from like school is and my face was peeling
Speaker 2: because it was summertime. Yeah, and I was like, how
Speaker 2: am I going to look good? Like how is this
Speaker 2: going to work? And you know, to your your face
Speaker 2: and body to the rescue.
Speaker 1: They came in clutch. It's such a good product and
Speaker 1: because of that, you know extra twenty meals that you get.
Speaker 1: It's it's so worth it. This is something that you
Speaker 1: really should have in your draw especially if you are
Speaker 1: a performer, if you're an athlete, if you are someone
Speaker 1: who is really active and always wearing.
Speaker 3: Foundation like this is a really good one to invest in.
Speaker 1: It's so good.
Speaker 2: Go do your Okay, now we're going like that next
Speaker 2: step up, especially in price point, but we've got the
Speaker 2: Jogio Omani Foundation at one hundred and five dollars for
Speaker 2: thirty minutes, which is crazy. But why did we include
Speaker 2: this one in the mixture?
Speaker 1: Okay, Well, the luminous silk is very iconic, and I
Speaker 1: would say that this is something that's beautiful and special.
Speaker 1: So when you have very special occasions, this is the one, like.
Speaker 3: Think your wedding day, engage.
Speaker 1: Agements, you know, being a bridesmaid. This is something that
Speaker 1: feels luxurious. It's just a beautiful product as well. It
Speaker 1: looks absolutely incredible, It's going to last for a long time,
Speaker 1: incredible shade range. But obviously you know it's got a
Speaker 1: high price point. But this is something that it feels
Speaker 1: special and it's going to be like something that you
Speaker 1: kind of keep and remember for those type of events.
Speaker 1: I really like to use this when we have weddings
Speaker 1: or we've got like red carpet events. It's such a
Speaker 1: gorgeous product.
Speaker 2: So if you have a year like full of different
Speaker 2: special events, like maybe this is the one you want
Speaker 2: to look at.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's exactly right. If you have like graduations, I
Speaker 1: don't know, birthday to buy graduate it's like a nice
Speaker 1: little treat that you can give yourself that you know
Speaker 1: it's going to perform and just look like really beautiful,
Speaker 1: and it's kind of adds to that whole experience. When
Speaker 1: you think of luxury, it's about the experience as well
Speaker 1: as the product. So when you're doing your makeup, it
Speaker 1: feels special exactly. Yeah, And I mean it's just iconic,
Speaker 1: like this is. If you're a beauty lover and you
Speaker 1: haven't tried this, it's just one of those staple foundations
Speaker 1: that no one can keep, Like, no one can keep
Speaker 1: out of their kids, especially professional makeup arts.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they're going to have this one.
Speaker 1: They're gonna have it because it's just I don't know,
Speaker 1: it's just just good. Yeah. Yeah, when you think of
Speaker 1: top three yet, if you think of like top tier foundations,
Speaker 1: this is always.
Speaker 3: Going to be always going to make the list exactly.
Speaker 1: Those are our favorite five foundations for different occasions. Now
Speaker 1: as you can see, you can use them all like
Speaker 1: in different ways themselves, but having a few own rotation
Speaker 1: for different events is really really fun.
