![]() ![]() Michelle is an artist turned nurse and a long-time beauty addict who created her blog to help anyone in their beauty endeavors by sharing swatches, comparing products, writing reviews of makeup, hair care, skin care & niche fragrances Top to Bottom-Kjaer Weis M220 Just Sheer, M224 Polished, Surratt Dew Drop 6, Cle de Peau Radiant Fluid O30, Charlotte Tilbury Light Wonder 6, Armani Neo Nude 4.5: It’s a little warm in tone and I could look for a more neutral shade but I’m not attempting that until they change the packaging. At first I started off with Polished but that was way too dark so I grabbed Just Sheer which worked fine for me. The frosted glass bottle is nice and luxe it just needs a pump. An example of bad packaging, great product. I hope they can take the feedback and repackage this one day as every person I know who’s used this says the same thing-the dropper is terrible. It’s a shame to as the foundation inside is utterly gorgeous. It’s super annoying and honestly I gave up on the foundation because the dropper just irritated me so much to use it. Overall it takes me about 8 times to try to dispense enough foundation. It barely gets 1-2 drops at a time, or sometimes it picks up nothing. So I absolutely adore the finish of the foundation, but the packaging meaning the dropper is absolutely terrible. And for $48 it’s not bad for the brand, you do have to buy the cap on the side for $30 (if you even want it, I skipped it). It just gives a nice natural glow and color to the skin. It’s hydrating without being too greasy or heavy, it doesn’t separate on my either during the day nor cling to any type of areas. It might be too hydrating for say more oily skin types, but everyone else should like it. This one has a natural dewy finish with light to medium coverage. The Invisible Touch Foundation which is a lightweight, dewy serum style foundation. So Kjaer Weis also launched a new foundation which sounded right up my alley. ![]() Top to Bottom-Soft, Serene, Calm, Thoughtful, Serene with Soft under top half, Calm with Soft under top half, Thoughtful with Soft under top half: Now if I could get the Soft color in the lipstick formula I would buy it and refill it until I died. It’s pretty creamy and not drying like many so it can be used as a lipstick but I do have to wear a gloss or balm over to keep my lips from drying out. Sadly the next shade in the range Genuine is quite dark and berry which is not my style. ![]() So I tried really hard to make the lipsticks work for me but they ended up being a pass for me due to the pale nature of the shades. Plus I’m lazy, I like a one and done lipstick versus having to apply lip liner then a lipstick on top. I’m not a huge lip liner fan as they tend to dry my already dry lips out more. It’s a pinky nude with the perfect amount of depth for me. The color is actually just what I was looking for. The only way I could get them to work for me was wear them over lip liner. I’m usually the deepest light medium or lightest medium and all of these are too pale for my tastes as nudes. They all have the same depth there’s no real differences between them. While it looks like there’s a good different in swatches on my arm, on the lips the differences are negligible and they all almost look the same on. I grabbed Calm, Thoughtful & Serene.Ĭalm is the peachy nude, Thoughtful is the coral nude and Serene is the cooler nude pink. The shades are all cream shades, no shimmer. The formula is creamy, hydrating and pretty pigmented. The lipstick cases are gorgeous and refillable. I ended up grabbing three lipstick shades as I was trying to find my best match. I was excited to see this launch of the Nude, Naturally Collection with lipsticks and lipliners. I have a hard time finding shades I like in their product range, that tends to be my downfall with them. Plus it’s also refillable which is nice when you have purchased that expensive case you don’t have to accrue the cost again. I love the luxe weighty packaging as it’s just so stunningly beautiful. I have a love hate relationship with Kjaer Weis. ![]()
