  • What's up, everybody.

  • Welcome back to my channel.

  • And you know what,

  • if you're new, hi,

  • because there is a lot of new subscribers lately.

  • So, in case you weren't aware,

  • my name is Jeffree Star.

  • And I have been a makeup artist for over 15 years.

  • I also love to review products.

  • I love to do a lot of first impressions.

  • I love to do a lot of lifestyle videos.

  • And, you know, we are

  • it's just crazy.

  • I'm like – I'm stuttering

  • because 2016 was so crazy.

  • Last month was my one-year anniversary

  • from doing YouTube.

  • Now, I had a channel a long time ago

  • that just kind of went stagnant.

  • I revived this bitch

  • and it's been such a wild ride.

  • So, one year later and over 100 videos later,

  • I'm ready to start the new year off.

  • So, today,

  • what the hell are we going to do today?

  • We're going to do a battle of the foundations.

  • We did the highlighters,

  • we did the primers.

  • And I'm like, okay, what could we do?

  • And then I stumbled across

  • a new foundation on the Internet

  • that is just $5.99.

  • I was like, huh!

  • I had such a good experience

  • after filming my full face using

  • all health products,

  • I'm like,

  • Okay, drugstore,

  • y'all bitches have stepping the fuck up.

  • So, I got a drugstore foundation

  • from wet n wild.

  • wet n wild,

  • they've been stepping it up.

  • Like last year,

  • their highlighters were

  • one of my all-time favorites of 2016,

  • which got me shook to the core.

  • And PS,

  • before we start diving into everything,

  • a lot of you have been requesting

  • for me to not wear any contact lenses

  • and show my real eye color.

  • So, here are the baby blues.

  • No, I'm just keeding.

  • So here are the brown eyes.

  • They are kind of hazely.

  • They are kind of brown.

  • My driver license says hazel.

  • But, yeah, these are my real eyes.

  • No contact lenses.

  • So, hi, everyone; it's me.

  • So, if you guys want to see

  • the drugstore foundation

  • versus the luxury high-end foundation,

  • then keep on watching.

  • Now, because these price points are so drastic,

  • I need to start off this video with a fucking hit.

  • And shout-out to the State of California.

  • We've finally passed

  • the recreational use of cannabis.

  • So, thank god we can get medicated legally.

  • So, what's up, California?

  • Happy New Year.

  • And this is a brand that me and Nick

  • found on Instagram.

  • They're called Mystic Tokes.

  • And I will leave their info down below.

  • And, look at

  • they made a personalized

  • Jeffree Star cosmetics fucking piece.

  • I was like oooh.

  • Why is this so sickening?

  • All right.

  • So, today,

  • I'm going to be applying

  • one foundation on this set of my face.

  • And, of course, the other on this side.

  • Now, we're just going o have an invisible line

  • and you guys are going to see me

  • apply it pretty much full-on

  • and we're just going to compare,

  • of course, like we always do

  • in these type of battle videos.

  • So, if you don't want to hear my whole spiel

  • and you just want to see me apply the foundations,

  • that part of the video starts right here.

  • So, don't leave me.

  • All right.

  • So the drugstore foundation

  • that I'm going to be trying out today

  • is the brand new

  • wet n wild Photo Focus Foundation.

  • Okay, girl.

  • A lot of people have been asking me

  • to review this so I thought,

  • You know what,

  • let's put it up against a luxury brand

  • and see what happens.

  • So, if you guys

  • all will rewind back to the hignhlighter battle,

  • you remember that the brand played a pose,

  • highlighter was a little lackluster.

  • But they have a brand-new foundation

  • that just hit the market as well

  • and this is $125.

  • I'm like,

  • oh, okay, girl.

  • Now, you guys know

  • I had tried a few expensive foundations,

  • of course, and reviewed them.

  • And a lot of the times they are really bomb

  • because they just have extra like magic in it.

  • I don't know what the fuck they do.

  • But, obviously,

  • we're going to talk about

  • what is even in this

  • to make it that price point

  • or what they think is going to

  • make it that price point.

  • So we are going to put these to the test.

  • Now, on my table,

  • I also got several shades.

  • You guys know

  • how I have issues with finding my shade

  • even though the shade match websites help.

  • It's kind of hard.

  • So I got three from wet n wild.

  • And I got three from Clé De Peau.

  • One is still in the box

  • and I'm going to read what they say,

  • they're both supposed to do.

  • So, let's just talk about the wet n wild.

  • Now, I will say this.

  • This is like a glass

  • this is glass, right?

  • It feels heavy, which I love.

  • I'm like, this is only $5.99

  • and it actually feels like a high-end brand,

  • like it feels heavy,

  • which is crazy,

  • because a lot of drugstore brands,

  • you know, their packaging is very cheap

  • and it kind of feels weightless.

  • I like a product with weight.

  • I want to be weighed down.

  • So I am on their website

  • and allegedly this is supposed to be

  • a new, high performing

  • skin perfecting foundation

  • that underwent major road testing

  • under seven different photo lighting conditions

  • to deliver the most flawless

  • camera-ready makeup every single time.

  • And I'm like, oh shit.

  • So the major claim that I found

  • a little like, oh okay,

  • for this one is that it says

  • that it was specifically made with a matte,

  • light-diffusing complex

  • to give your skin a no filter

  • a hashtag no filter perfection.

  • And, yes, the hashtag is on their site.

  • I'm living for it.

  • I shade matched this color earlier.

  • This is called rose ivory.

  • I do have a cool undertone to my skin.

  • So, hopefully, this will work.

  • And also, I do want to note that

  • wet n wild is a cruelty-free

  • and vegan brand

  • for everyone that always asks about that.

  • All right.

  • Now, let's get to the high-end one.

  • Now, this is the radiant cream foundation.

  • Now, when I saw the price tag of $125,

  • I was like, ho, okay, okay, okay.

  • So this is a moisturizing,

  • full coverage cream foundation

  • with a smooth texture

  • that transforms skin into a natural,

  • doey, lustrous complexion.

  • Okay. Now, it also has key benefits.

  • And there is a lot you guys.

  • I'm talking nine or ten bullet points

  • of what the hell a foundation it does.

  • And I'm like that is fucking extra.

  • But allegedly,

  • there is silk and pearl elements to this.

  • It is going to help moisturize

  • and retexture my skin

  • while reducing the appearance of damage

  • caused by environmental stress.

  • I wish every foundation would do that.

  • Now, it also says that there is a reflection oil

  • that develops a lustrous layer

  • that spreads evenly across the skin surface

  • for captivating luster.

  • I'm likethis is like poetry,

  • whoever wrote this, by the way.

  • There is a lot of claims with this one.

  • This one is supposed to look sickening on camera.

  • This one is supposed to be the same,

  • but look even more like beautiful.

  • So, I guess, I'm ready to put these on.

  • Now, I think that it's only fair to, of course,

  • put a primer on my skin, duh.

  • That's how I normally get ready.

  • And I'm going to go in with 2016's

  • one out of two favorite primers

  • which is the Bobbi Brown Vitamin Enriched Face Base,

  • and this is for any skin type,

  • which I love.

  • So, if you want to try any moisturizer,

  • I would definitely recommend this one.

  • Now, I'm just going to get a little foundation brush,

  • a synthetic that is completely clean.

  • And I'm just going to dip in there

  • and I am going to coat my entire face.

  • Now that this is on,

  • I'm going to do the drugstore foundation first.

  • So, I'm going to do that

  • on the left side of my face,

  • which is your guys' right

  • and the Clé De Peau on my right side.

  • So, let's start with this.

  • Now, I have two really damp beauty blenders.

  • This is how I normally apply my foundation.

  • I'm going to do the red one

  • with the drugstore

  • and then the new baby pink beauty blender

  • with the luxury.

  • So, ooh, okay.

  • So it has a spatula, which is cool.

  • Not a lot of brands do that.

  • So I'm just going to put a lot of on my face

  • because you know

  • I'm a full coverage bitch.

  • All right, let's bounce.

  • All right.

  • Let's take a really big peek in here.

  • Oh wow. That is really nice.

  • I'm like why is it so smooth.

  • I'm like sitting here remembering

  • reading the description a second ago

  • and I'm like,

  • okay, I mean, I think it did what it said.

  • I mean, let's let it settle for a minute

  • and let's do the Clé De Peau side

  • and see what happens.

  • All right,

  • I do want to note that...

  • of course, that wet n wild had a spatula,

  • and this one has a little applicator at the end,

  • so I'm just going to squeeze it

  • on top of my beauty blender.

  • And for the price point,

  • it seems like such average, boring component.

  • I'm like... the only thing I like is the top.

  • It's really cute and shiny.

  • It's like a disco ball.

  • But this is so underwhelming.

  • Just got to say it. All right.

  • Let's apply. All right.

  • I think that might be enough.

  • We shall see in a second.

  • I'm just going to, of course, dot this all over.

  • So, let's bounce.

  • All right. Let's grab a mirror and see.

  • Oh wow! They're so different.

  • Look how lustrous, like this side is.

  • That is crazy.

  • Wow, man.

  • First of all,

  • this one is definitely more full coverage.

  • When we look at the foundation on my lips

  • compared to the other side,

  • this side is a matte and it is kind of blurring.

  • It's hard to say.

  • No, I did not use, of course, pore-filling primer.

  • I just used a very moisturizing one.

  • So like my pores,

  • not really showing that much on this side.

  • I think I'm actually showing a little bit more on

  • the high-end side.

  • I also love the finish of this,

  • like oh wow,

  • this really does though feel like

  • there's not much on my face.

  • Did that make sense?

  • Like, this one,

  • I feel like I could tell like,

  • okay, it feels like heavier.

  • You all know what I'm talking about.

  • Of course, you all wear foundation.

  • But, like, I don't know, man.

  • Like, this is cool.

  • But this one is also very

  • like, I could see myself using this more

  • just because it's just like,

  • I almost want to look like a matte fucking bitch.

  • All right, guys.

  • So, clearly, they both do such different things.

  • But we are forgetting one big thing.

  • If I were to wear a foundation, of course,

  • I would wear a concealer and a powder.

  • So, I think that it's only fair

  • that we do that

  • and then I'm going to go about my day.

  • I have a lot of errands to do.

  • I have shopping.

  • So, I'm literally going to wear just foundation

  • and the concealer and the powder.

  • So, I'm going to do this right now

  • on camera for you guys.

  • And then I'm going to go shopping

  • and hang out

  • and probably just wear sunglasses

  • and look like an alien.

  • So, I think it's only

  • right that we use one of my favorite concealers.

  • Not one of,

  • probably the favorite concealer of 2016,

  • which was the Tarte Shape Tape.

  • It's just great, you guys.

  • So, let's put it over, of course,

  • both foundations and see how it looks.

  • And, of course, it's only fair

  • that I use the beauty blenders

  • that I use on each side.

  • So, let's bounce and go in.

  • That was a damn workout, you guys.

  • I feel like I just jacked off like 100 penises.

  • Okay.

  • So, now, I'm going to give my

  • thoughts about the concealer over the foundations.

  • So, on the drugstore side,

  • the concealer looks great.

  • Like, really, really nice.

  • It's like fucking clean.

  • Okay. And then on the luxury side,

  • whoa!

  • Okay, we're going to zoom in a little bit right here.

  • It's like a little blotchy.

  • Like, I don't think the concealer formula

  • loved this foundation,

  • which happens a lot.

  • It doesn't mean it's the concealer or the foundation.

  • Sometimes brands do not mix together

  • and here we are seeing that.

  • I hope you guys can see it.

  • It's like just not as pretty as the wet n wild side.

  • This one is like...

  • and this one is a little like

  • I just want to keep buffing it and trying to like,

  • make it work a little better.

  • It's just not living and loving for it.

  • Now, I'm going to set the under-eyes

  • and just throw on some foundation.

  • Now, what kind of setting powder should I throw on.

  • All right.

  • So, that was my favorite Chanel setting powder.

  • It isit's beautiful, you guys.

  • And then I'm going to take my

  • Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation compact

  • with the same brush

  • and just dust this all over my face.

  • All right.

  • Now that the whole powder

  • and setting powder are in,

  • I'm looking closely and,

  • huh,

  • hmm,

  • okay, okay.

  • Well, I don't want to give my final thoughts yet.

  • I'm going to go about my day

  • and I will be back in

  • I don't know.

  • I guess I'll tell you when I get back.

  • So, I'll see you guys in a little bit.

  • Hi, everybody.

  • I know you guys are going to see me

  • from five seconds ago

  • or, wait, one second.

  • But it has been about

  • where is my phone? –

  • seven-and-a-half hours

  • and now I am cozy in pajamas.

  • And I'm looking at the monitor,

  • like these foundations don't look

  • as crazy as I thought they would be.

  • Now, of course,

  • we set the entire face

  • and that is going to really help.

  • But I want to zoom in a little bit

  • and give my final thoughts of both foundations.

  • So, we have the drugstore foundation

  • on this side of the face.

  • And I'm like a little shook right now, you guys,

  • because it wore really, really well.

  • I'm like, holy shit, man.

  • And on the high-end side,

  • it wore really well,

  • but I could definitely see

  • my pores a lot more in this area.

  • And on this side, it's like really nice.

  • Like you really don't see them.

  • So, that is definitely a minus for this.

  • And then my little

  • you know, my laugh line is right here.

  • This side is really like smooth

  • and that's how I'm seeing it close-up.

  • And then on this side, it's more

  • it's a little more severe.

  • Like, you can see lines way more,

  • I feel like, than this side.

  • Now, under the eyes,

  • with the concealer over it and the powders,

  • I think that they both

  • they look pretty good.

  • Now, this side looks a little more flawless to me

  • whereas this one

  • I want to like take the beauty blender

  • and like

  • I want to buff it and fix it so bad.

  • I'm not going to do it.

  • I'm not going to do it.

  • All right. So, wow, okay.

  • I am – I'm not mad at this, you guys.

  • But I think it's time to give my final thoughts.

  • All right. So, I'm going to be really real right now.

  • I'm actually really excited because,

  • I know, drugstore makeup has really been like

  • blowing my mind the last few months.

  • I'm like, okay, this is only $5.99

  • and it is fucking great.

  • Like, I'm just going to say it right now.

  • It is amazing.

  • For some reason, it really did the job.

  • It did exactly what it said it was going to do.

  • It looks flawless.

  • After, like

  • I like sopping my face

  • and it started really coming off.

  • Like, after almost eight hours,

  • I'm like, oh my God, hello.

  • So, if you guys have not seen this yet or tried it,

  • it's worth it.

  • I mean, it is worth it for this price

  • and for what it looks like.

  • I'm like, it's sick.

  • Now, on this side,

  • the Clé De Peau radiance cream foundation,

  • I like how it looks on the parts

  • where I don't have flaws,

  • which I know that sounds kind of weird.

  • But, like, my pores are really bothering me.

  • I'm like, oh my God,

  • I want to take powder like

  • But besides that, it wore well.

  • Now, it does feel kind of

  • like a little more oily and doey

  • and it definitely gives you that more glow,

  • which is what it said it was going to do.

  • So, it got a little more doey and kind of oily,

  • more so throughout the day,

  • of course, than this side.

  • This is like matte, like nuh-uh...bye!

  • So, if you don't mind that,

  • like, I kind of like how

  • I don't even have highlighter on on my cheek.

  • It's a little more glowy right here.

  • This one's not bad.

  • Like, I actually really like this.

  • I just wished that I would have used,

  • of course, a better primer for my trouble areas

  • and the things that I don't like.

  • So, I would probably go with,

  • like, you know, the benefit, professional or something

  • more so along those lines

  • and then put it over with.

  • So, now, I will say this.

  • This one is the winner over this in my eyes.

  • But they both Jeffree Star approved

  • because this one isn't like horrible.

  • It wasn't like, oh my God,

  • I look like shit.

  • It just – I don't know.

  • Like, it's still beautiful.

  • I'm like trying

  • I'm not gasping for air here.

  • But you guys hopefully will understand what I mean,

  • where like this doesn't have so many cons

  • and it doesn't look bad.

  • All right.

  • Now it's time for you guys to

  • sound off in the comments down below

  • and let me know your final thoughts.

  • Which side do you think won

  • or which side do you guys think is the best?

  • Now, there's a lot of

  • other makeup items out there, you guys.

  • There is under-eye setting powder,

  • we've got concealer,

  • we've got lipsticks

  • ooh, that's scary.

  • That's a fun one.

  • So, if you guys want to see more of these battle videos,

  • of course, let me know down below.

  • Thank you so much for watching.

  • As always, I'm so excited for 2017.

  • I'm like, oh my God, you guys,

  • we are growing together.

  • This is fucking awesome.

  • So, I love you always and forever

  • Alyssa Edwards... just kidding.
