jeour cosmetics essential high coverage créme foundation - ⭐⭐½ I got this for free from sephora and reviews were mixed. Unfortunately, I didn't love this. But first the good. There are a lot of shades and they sent a good sized sample with a lot of shades to choose from so I was able to determine ivory matched my pale skin perfectly. It's a small size bottle but currently on sale at Sephora for $27. It was more liquidy than I expected, but applied fine and since it's for oily skin it's not heavy. Finally I have sensitive skin and this didn't irritate it. Now the not so good. A lot of people complained that this showed all pores, imperfections and I have to agree. I made sure I put on moisturizer and let it fully sink in, then put on my favorite urbandecay all ...

But it settles in places I didn't even know were a problem! I had a video meeting, and this actually wasn't the full coverage it describes, so I applied my colourpop hyaluronic acid tinted moisturizer over and sorted it out, but obviously not a foundation I'd purchase....

let me tell y’all something, this is the best foundation in the world… cus i have literally tried every foundation on this planet. As someone who grew up having oily skin and really bad acne, i was constantly searching for the best foundation it seemed that every one i would try would fall short in one way or another which got really frustrating. for a while, i was using the tarte shape tape concealer as a foundation bc i couldn’t find anything better… until i found THIS. let me tell y’all what JOUER has done here is magic. The consistency of this foundation is so thin blendable, yet SO high coverage!! there are so many shades so finding a shade that was perfect to my skin was easy— they even let me exchange it when the first color i picked wasn’t right💖 i could go ...

If I was rating coverage alone I would give 5 stars, plus a little really does go a long way. However, this was the weirdest foundation I have ever used. I have never experienced anything like this. Do not, and I repeat DO NOT use a damp beauty blender to apply this foundation. If you do, the product will somehow separate on your face mid way through application and not cover anything. You will just have big streaks all over. This foundation has a terrible reaction to any amount of water, even just a drop. So if you plan to cry that day, do not use this foundation. It will separate on your face and you will have streaks that you can’t fix without taking off and reapplying. If it might rain that day, don’t wear this because your foundation will separate if you get ... MoreIf I was rating coverage alone I would give 5 stars, plus a little really does go a long way.

BUT if none of the above happens, your face will look nice. I tried this product for a week. I used a Jouer foundation brush, a damp beauty blender, and my finger to see which application process would work best - brush was best, but the above issues still applied. I also have extremely dry skin, so I used the Jouer hydrating primer which I do like. Also, make sure your primer is completely dry before applying this foundation...you know because it’s wet otherwise 🤦🏼♀️... Show more

Amazing
When I first used this foundation I fell in love with the product, I felt my skin was perfection. This was confirmed by my husband (my almost boyfriend at the time) when he picked me up for a date - first thing that came out of his mouth upon arrival at my condo was "WOW, you look gorgeous." as he starred at my face, grabbed it and then kissed me. I am telling you, no joke, I immediately knew it was the new foundation. 1000%. They used to have a lighter version, tinted moisturizer with great coverage but lighter with SPF. It was my beach/summer go to, I wish they would bring it back. It was like non-make up makeup.... Show more

Great foundation for my finicky skin
I’m impressed with this foundation. Matte foundations are hit or miss on my finicky, combo skin. This one performed beautifully. It doesn’t emphasize my fine lines or texture, didn’t break up on my T-zone after 12 hours of wear (which happens with almost every foundation on my skin), covers a multitude of sins without feeling heavy or looking cakey, and the color match is exact for me (shade Biscuit). It pairs beautifully with both the liquid and pen concealers, depending on my coverage needs that day. I will definitely purchase this again. Jouer has some of the best complexion products on the market IMO, and I’ve used literally hundreds of different brands and types, ranging from drugstore to luxury. I always wind up coming back to Jouer, and this foundation will ... MoreI’m impressed with this foundation. Matte foundations are hit or miss on my finicky, combo skin.

I wasn’t expecting it to be this good!!!
I don’t usually wear a full coverage foundation, but sometimes need one. This is amazing. Literally covers every blemish, discolouration and makes your skin perfectly matte. You only need one pump absolutely no more, I used it with a glass primer to ensure I had no dry bits for it to cling to and applied with a beauty blender. It does have an odd consistency for a full coverage foundation, it’s very watery but that aside it works like a dream. I’m 43 and it didn’t even settle into any of my pores. It also stayed put and my combination skin didn’t get oily where it usual does when I wear foundation. Just use as little as possible too much and you’ll regret it.... Show more

Moisturizes and covers hyperpigmentation very well
As a 60+ women of color with a golden undertones, hyperpigmentation and combination skin, I can't believe I finally found a (actually my daughter found this at TJ Maxx) foundation that offers me a good amount of coverage and does not make my skin feel like I am wearing a mask. First of all I am a beginner at wearing any kind of foundation. Make up always made me feel like I was wearing a mask. Yuk! My skin always felt oily, heavily coated or dry. This foundation is the only onethat I've found I can wear and not feel over coated/masked for lack of a better description. It feels like i am wearing a natural moisturizing lotion. That says a lot for from me, because I prefer naturally bare skin. Generally, I don't like foundations, but this brand is a keeper.... Show more

Not for everyone
For me, the two big surprises were Paradis and Piscine.Given my usual distaste for blue eyeshadow, I was surprised to see how much I enjoy Piscine: featuring an almost transparent base and sparse, extremely fine glitter particles, it goes on smoothly and never fails to add a somber, understated touch of color and brightness to the lid. When layered, it looks quite icy.As for Paradis, it is a shade that's unique to my collection, being a dark olive matte that also pulls considerably brown. If you like to use eyeshadows as eyeliner and stamp them on your lid, it will surprise you; otherwise, it works beautifully to add depth to any look and it combines unexpectedly well with every other shade in the palette.As for everything else, what you see is pretty much what ...

In light of this, I realistically cannot recommend this palette to all — however, for what it's worth, I enjoy the palette and am happy with my purchase.Get this palette only if you think it fits your style of makeup....

Surprisingly good
I was surprised by this foundation, wasn't expecting to like it as much and don't wear matte finishes much anymore. The coverage and finish on this is super high coverage! I'm talking all my hyperpigmentation covered up with this! The colour range can be confusing but I luckily got the perfect shade and undertone for my skin. Bronzed... For anyone looking to choose this shade and is unsure i also use MAC nc38/nc42 summer. I use spiced sand, honey bronze Estée Lauder in the summer and I use Shell beige in the winter (I'm a neutral undertone) I use butter pecan in huda beauty, nars Aruba in the summer but can get away with Valencia too, Laura mercier real flawless in ginger! Shade 6N and shade 6.5N in L'Oréal true match. Hope this helps anyone looking for their shade ...

True Full Coverage
Ok, lots of foundations are claiming to be full coverage these days, but those of us with actual stuff to cover know that actual full coverage is very rare. And when you manage find one, it tends to look cruddy and textured or wipe straight off your face. Well, this is one of the most full coverage I have ever tried, and I've been wearing it for 14 hours. I was shocked that it just went on and covered immediately--no layering needed. I think maybe people are having trouble with it because they're fussing around with it too much. I also don't think a beauty blender is gonna make it easy. I basically slapped it on with my fingers--using a generous amount (over Elf hydrating primer--which is oil and silicone. They got along swimmingly!). A thicker amount was actually ...

I basically slapped it on with my fingers--using a generous amount (over Elf hydrating primer--which is oil and silicone. They got along swimmingly!). A thicker amount was actually easier to work with. Places I used less were actually more textured. I have extremely dry skin and almost every other foundation looks positively cruddy on it. This only looked dry. Dry-- but smooth! A heavy spritz of Fix and it looked downright awesome. Unheard of for this complexion-challenged creature. If you need full coverage (not just sort of, almost full coverage), it is definitely worth your while to work with this a time or two and see how it goes best on your skin. It's truly one of the best full coverage foundations I have ever tried.... Show more
