$11.99 FOUNDATION VS. $40 FOUNDATION: Who Wins ???

Hello guys, it's me Nikki and welcome back to winter wonder week. We have arrived. We have stumbled upon day number 3 Welcome. So for day 3 today, I'm flying in heaven. I'm high up in the sky. That backdrop is so blue I feel like I'm in the sky right now and I haven't even had breakfast yet. Woohoo So for day 3 of a winter wonder week, I wanted to compare my holy grail foundation Foundation to a brand new Drugstore foundation this huda beauty faux filter foundation as you know, I did a video on it is my holy grail foundation It gives me full coverage dreams It gives me everything that my makeup addict soul needs and wants and desires This I don't know what it does This is the Maybelline superstay 24-hour full coverage foundation, and I've heard really good things about it So I was like why not compare a high-end? Really full coverage long-lasting foundation with a low-end really long for my foundation So I'm gonna be testing it on my face to see how it applies to see how it blends to see how it works into The skin and then we're gonna go over top with bronzer highlighter and all that good stuff To see how it holds up after a big beating of makeup. So if you're excited, I am excited I'm always excited. It's day three and let's go All right, so here we have my bare face and This is what it looks like today The redness is down because it's cold in my room and when it's cold in the room, I don't get red So this is what it looks like and I was thinking maybe I can do a skincare routine Slash my skincare secrets in winter wonder week as well. So if you want to see that, let me know Down below let me know. So the first product I'm gonna go in with I'm gonna treat both foundations like they are the same So I'm gonna prime the same way I'm gonna treat my skin the same way leading up to the foundation application So the first product I'm gonna go in with is you're getting sick and tired of me using this, huh? This is amazing cosmetics illuminate primary highlighter in glow. This stuff is just I love this I can't get enough of it. It's so nice I'm just gonna work this into my skin with a brush on both sides Treat it equally, baby All right So I'll be starting off with the hood of beauty faux filter foundation because I have used this on camera before and we all know What it does for me and what to expect from it So it's easier to just get that on and then compare how the Maybelline does in comparison Okay, so here we go put a beauty as you can see it's a full coverage dream It just applies so rich so intense and it covers up anything It covers up your past it covers up the future it covers up the present and my favorite thing about it is that as you're doing it your skin still looks like skin but photoshopped and perfect and Flawless, this one is a hard one to beat because ever since I got this I haven't used a different foundation This has been on my face ever since All right. So that is hood of beauty faux filter foundation on the left side of my face Like you almost don't need any additional concealer. This is a must-have in your kit. Trust me Now, let's move on to the Maybelline 24-hour super stay foundation and online It says experience the superpower of makeup the high pigment foundation Combats the clock for transforming 24-hour wear Alright, so this is what it looks like it comes with a pump and I am in the color 110 porcelain Picking that up on my sponge and here we go baby, oh I see Oh My god Damn all right. This Maybelline foundation obviously is not here to play. This is full coverage So as I'm applying it to my forehead, let me give you my initial thoughts. It feels and applies a little drier Than the hood of beauty faux filter. It applies a little bit less smooth I have to work it in a tiny bit more. I think both sides have about the same coverage Although on the hood aside, it just looks a little bit more natural So if you're looking for full coverage like all the way but still natural I think hood of beauty if you're looking for full coverage and a little bit more plasticky It's Maybelline when I look at my skin really up close I see that well, of course how the beauty has dried in a little bit so far But Maybelline almost looks identical and that hasn't dried in yet So that tells me that the Maybelline Superstay is a little bit drier than the faux filter by hood And I have dry skin so that wears me a tiny bit, but it's nothing like Fenty Beauty Fenty Beauty made me look like a desert other than that. I definitely see that it minimized the appearance of pores It's not exaggerating any fine lines. It's just looking like a veil of Beautifulness on both sides So now let's blend in concealer over top to see if it blends nicely if it just works together Nicely and let's see how it does on both sides are gonna be using the NARS soft matte complete conceal Concealer and I am light to vanilla See and not every concealer blends with every foundation out there It truly is a test for some concealers to blend in nicely with the foundation underneath But I don't know how it will do on the Maybelline side I will say after doing that natural makeup challenge. It feels so good to take it on As you can see that blended in perfectly and Tracelessly now, let's do the Maybelline side So far it's going Perfectly I almost feel like I'm using the same foundation Although again, the Maybelline one is a little bit more dry But other than that, it feels like I'm using the same foundation all over my face concealer is blending in Tracelessly concealer is going perfectly and if I didn't tell you that I'm wearing two foundations at once right now You wouldn't be able to tell now. I'm going to bake my under eye using the fit me loose powder by Maybelline This is my favorite powder to bake with and I know that the hood aside goes really well with it And it's a Maybelline product Maybelline a Maybelline. It probably goes really well, too Stunning goes really well and now using some Cody airspun and a damp sponge I press the powder in all over my face for the longest lasting base of life Yeah, this foundation is handling the powder really really well. It's not shifting it's not moving around it's taking the powder and Working it. The only thing I'm noticing now that I'm looking in the monitor. Is that the Maybelline side is Eyeing a little bit darker than the hood of beauty side So that tells me that the Maybelline side has oxidized a little teensy bit much more than the hood of beauty side But there's nothing a little bit of bronzer can't fix Alright now I'm gonna do my eye makeup and my brows and I'll be back to see if bronzer applies Beautifully over top of this as well and blush and highlighter and everything. So I'll be right back Yeah, we go. You know one in a two in a three Right So brows and eyes are applied and as you can see it did oxidize even though I powdered a little bit more So now we can see that this side is a little bit darker than this side Although this side did oxidize as well This basically always happens to me and what I do to fix it is apply bronzer to my neck using this right here this is a Mac next to nothing powder in medium dark and I use this to sort of bronze up my face and sort of tie everything together and The bronzer is applying Seamlessly it's going on like butter. The Maybelline is standing strong and not letting it mess around with This is really really good so far for the hood of beauty side I mean If you watch any of my videos, you know that it applies Really nicely over it because I wear this foundation in pretty much every video. Yeah, and I have to fix this mess up Wrong bra then I contour and I apply my contour in soft circular motions and sometimes if you are wearing the wrong base for example the RCMA cream color base That for me when I go in with a swirling motion like this and apply my contour like that It Totally moves it starts ruining everything. It starts totally messing it up and leaving holes and marks and streaks and with this It is just gliding over top Contouring the good stuff and leaving the good stuff in place Oh now comes another really really important one nose Contouring if I'm not wearing the right base underneath and I do my nose contour you will see streaks redness marks I'll see a messed up nose and Lately, I've been really trying my nose contour to like really step it up because the hood of beauty Foundation is the only one so far that doesn't budge as soon as I go in with this brush on my nose So, let's see if the Maybelline side does the same first. I go underneath Nothing to like mess up here, but this is where we start bridge The bridge Put a beauty side traces perfect I can contour with it Maybelline side Traces beautiful I can contour with it another tricky step blush This causes for a lot of friction on the skin and you need a tough Hardcore base that will sit it through and look flawless in the end. So I'm gonna go in with this brush right here It's a nice and glowy one. I'm picking some up on my brush tap-tap and Here we go. So I'm Applying it in nice circular swirling motions to get that warmth on my cheek And it's looking very very good. I Don't know if it's because Christmas was yesterday, but I'm having such a good makeup day Okay, so now I'm gonna carve out underneath my cheek to define the contour a little bit more I'm so sorry British people. I will never do that again The test of all tests a wet highlighter on top of powdered skin is probably the biggest test you can give any foundation out there because With most wet highlighters on top of a powdered skin. It's gonna move the base. It's gonna create redness It's gonna it's gonna make things look really really messy So today I'm going in with the first Solly jelly beam I'm gonna dip my finger into the first Solly jelly beam Tap it on the skin pray to God that it doesn't move around the base too much and then set it with a reflective eyeshadow Hello All right and to tie the look together I want to keep everything in the very gold Bronzy tones as you can see by everything on my face right now So I'm gonna go in with this smash box always on liquid lipstick in the color carrot stick And of course some setting spray All right guys, so what is our end conclusion when I look at both foundations I think they're both very very similar. They both guarantee for amazing full high-coverage Plastic fantasticness. They both work. Well, I might dry combination skin Although with one side note that the Maybelline is a smidgen more dry So if you're a little bit on the oilier side, I think the Maybelline is more fit for you. Also color range They are super super close angel food and 110 porcelain are almost a dead-on match The only side note I have for the Maybelline one is that it oxidizes a tiny bit more but there's nothing a little bit of bronzer It can't fix so quality wise and application wise and everything you put over top wise They are almost identical. Now. There is one major difference between the two and that is Pricing hood a beauty faux filter retails for $40. That's a hefty price for a foundation this right here $11.99 that is a huge difference for two foundations that are basically almost the same And if you ask me, I might even go as far as saying that I think these two are each other's perfect dupes So definitely let me know what you think.
