What the gurus are saying

The experts who reviewed it found the foundation itself performs well on quality and coverage, but they flagged a serious problem: the brand's marketing uses heavily filtered footage that obscures what the product actually does on real skin. That matters because the brand stakes its reputation on precise shade matching and transformative coverage, so the disconnect between the polished ads and what people will actually see in the mirror is a real concern for anyone considering it based on those claims.

"I liked the foundation I liked the concealer this isn't an issue with the quality of their product it's more how they go about selling this product. If you're going to sell a product that claims to do something to the complexion of someone's skin the texture of someone's skin then you better have a good clear unfiltered unblurred footage to back that up."

"This is very, very clearly filtered, which is annoying because this brand, if it is Il Makiage, they kind of pride themselves on matching the perfect shade and having this amazing coverage that of course, everyone's going, oh, it's perfect. So this is just lying. It's lying about the quality of their product, the results of their product."
