I love your reviews but i have no idea why you struggled so much with this Hourglass foundation. I love this foundation. I find it does none of the things on me it does on you! I do think the colour mismatch does not help. I doubt anything, even the Chanel Velvet would look god when the colour is this off. With the correct colour match, I literally need the 3 dots plus maybe a couple of extra dots using a concealer brush on spots. It lasts brilliantly and looks so, so natural. I apply with a buffing type of brush and it blends beautifully. I bought it before I saw your review but after maybe 3-4 other reviewers who all loved it. I think maybe some products don’t like some skins.

Angie,

Have you ever tried Jane Iredale Smooth Affair Facial Primer and Brightener? Its supposed to prepare the skin so makeup goes on easier and makes it last longer. It also smooths and brightens the skin and minimizes pores.

Thank you for through review of both the good and bad products in your videos. Your work really is helpful. I have a very practical problem for you that concerns the height of a make up mirror. I bought a great 3 way mirror with adjustable lighting and regular and magnification settings that I am happy with. Currently I have it on top of a higher table, but I still look down on it from my chair. Should the mirror be straight ahead height when sitting? Also, have you ever reviewed make up mirrors? I tried about 3 before picking my current mirror, and even my mirror is fairly small. I am happy that I moved out of the bathroom and into an area of my bedroom with natural light. Any info really appreciated.

  I prefer to look straight into my makeup mirror, but I’d imagine it’s personal preference. In order to get my mirror to the right height I have it on top of a box to lift it up more… I really don’t like looking down into my mirror. I did do a post on mirrors a while ago but the ones I featured are still my faves! Here’s the link: http://www.hotandflashy50.com/mirror-mirror-help-see/

Hi Angie,

Thank you so much as always for your wisdom. I couldn’t agree more “Life is too short to be wearing bad makeup”.

Have a safe trip!

I actually like this foundation! I find it easy to apply (I like the convenience of the stick format) and I find it pretty creamy and easy to blend on my face. That being said I do use a primer to keep it from moving/separating and I had a brush similar to the one hourglass recommends for application. I’m 25 and low maintenance when it comes to makeup so I really just use it on my red areas, chin, nose, and under the eyes to even out my skin. But absolutely right about the price, pretty steep!

What a disappointing product! It just makes you wonder: Did Hourglass test this at all? How could they have and still make the claims they have made for this foundation? Yikes!
