Hey my little artists! Today I'm trying out the M. Asam Magic Finish makeup. I
couldn't find too much about this company, just what they sell, but I think
it's a German company founded in 1963. It's mostly skincare, but they do
have some of these makeup products. This was 24,75 Euros
directly from the website. You can also get it on Amazon and it's very popular
on QVC. I found it on the American Amazon as well, for 35 dollars and
90 cents. So it comes in this little cardboard box and when you open it...
I already made a dirty, excellent! When you open it, you get a container like
this. It looks quite fancy, I mean, it's completely out of plastic, but still.
What irritates me though, this is the product that you get inside. There's only
one color for all skin tones, so this is the first claim, that it adapts to any
skin tone. I really don't know if this is gonna happen for me, but we'll find out!
Then it has more claims, so it doesn't stop there! It says that it hides redness,
pigmentation and wrinkles. Usually foundation makes texture worse, so I'm
thinking this might also help my acne scarring, as well as my wrinkles. I have a
lot of them, if you see them right here, because I laugh too much, which is not
a bad thing. Anyways, it also hides dark circles, it mattifies and it's supposed
to be a four in one product. So it's a primer, a foundation, a powder and a
concealer in one product. I am very excited to try this out! Let me put it on
one side of the face first, to see if there is a difference between the two.
The texture is is weird. It's like mousse au chocolat, that is a little too hard, but okay.
I don't know how much to take of this. It says you can use like a brush or a
sponge and your finger... okay, this looks so dark. It didn't specify, it it feels most natural
for me to use my fingers with this, so let's see what happens. So far I'm
looking orange on this side. Let's see if that still changes. Oh my God.
Well okay, it feels really nice on the skin. It's very, very smooth. I can tell,
definitely, that it is mattifying and it is concealing some stuff. Hmm, it's looking
lighter now, isn't it? Still looking a little tanned, don't get me wrong, especially
here in my hairline. Let me blend that in a little more. Okay, now it's dyed my hair,
excellent! I mean this side definitely looks better than this side, but it's
also still... it's getting a little lighter? How is it doing that? I don't understand.
It's definitely not like... it's very, very light coverage. I mean you can still see
my keloids here, all these scars are still there, my chin is still kind of red.
I'm excited to see what it does to this little situation right here, but it did
get lighter now. It looks like it's actually my skin tone, just maybe like a
smidge tanned? I will try and see if this is a little
buildable as well, but first let me finish this side. I think I'm taking a
little too much product as well. It's crazy how this is like changing color.
How did it do with my wrinkles? Okay, I still have wrinkles. That is
disappointing. I thought I would be wrinkle free with this. I guess I do have
to get Botox or what do you put on wrinkles? Do you put hyaluronic acid on wrinkles as well?
Oh and by the way, so I only have moisturizer and hyaluronic acid on my
skin right now. I have combination skin, so I get an oily nose and my chin is
kind of oily, my forehead is a little dry and the rest is kind of dry. I have acne
scars, as you see and a lot of pigmentation errors, but you can see all
of that. I'm still glittery! Never doing a glitter eye look again! It feels really
nice. So it feels like I have nothing on my skin and my skin right here is so velvety
smooth. Okay, so it definitely dyes your hair, so be careful with that. Okay, I am
pretty amazed at this. It looks great and it feels great. It is kind of like a BB
cream, only nicer. You know how BB creams sometimes feel very oily
and you're just like, I know this is gonna break me out. This doesn't feel
like that at all. Let me try and build up the coverage a little bit, in the areas
where I need more. They did a pretty decent job of covering up these pimples
as well. I mean, you can still see them. It's obviously not like a high coverage
concealer, but I'm so... I am so amazed. Wow, cat hair in my eye,
excellent! I do feel like I'm a little more tanned though, than I am usually, so it
does darken the skin a little bit. Also, I worry how this works with really deep
skin tones. I would love to try that on someone. Does someone want to be my model?
I'll do the rest of your makeup as well, don't worry, but I would love to see how
that works. So it's kind of buildable as well, as you just saw on my nose there. I
mean, it's doing nothing for the dryness around this... the circle? The pimple.
It really does feel like, I mean, it's not you know, it's not making my pores more
visible, but I don't think it's making them less visible either. My wrinkles are
just same. I mean I'm gonna show you the before and after picture they put on
their website, which I mean, what did they use like except photoshop? That's not gonna
happen, but this does feel nice. So I'm gonna finish the rest of my makeup now.
I'll check in again and then we will see how this wears during the day; and
before I forget, it is 12:00 noon right now, so I will at least wear this till
8:00 p.m. Now I look better don't I? So the blending was actually really nice on
this makeup. I felt like I didn't need powder. It worked out really well. Okay,
that looks a little line-y there. Let me just go over that again, but it honestly,
it blended very, very well. I didn't feel like there was a difference. Usually when...
I barely ever only wear foundation without powder, because just my skin is
too oily for that, but it worked very well. I'm very
impressed so far. I'm just excited to see how this will hold up with my oils and
all of that and if it'll look terrible. Um
it does... I have to say, it does accentuate dry patches though. Like you know, where
my... I don't have any like dry patches just solely on my skin right now, but
where I have pimples. Let me zoom in on my nose real quick. Oh that is very close,
but can you see that on my nose? How it um... how it looks very, very drying? Let me
focus on there. Yeah, and I fear... it looks nice on the rest of my skin, obviously
it's not super full coverage, but I feel like it's probably gonna accentuate dry
flakiness, if you have very dry skin, this is probably not for you.
I mean, it's mattifying, so you're probably not gonna reach for a
mattifying product anyways, but just to let you know. Now I will show you what it
looks like with flash photography and also in natural daylight and then I'll
check in later, to tell you how it's holding up!
Okay, so I'm sitting in front of a window right now. I think it looks nice. I don't
know, I can't really tell in the...in the viewfinder. I guess I'll see when I
edit this video, but it looks really nice. Let me turn around to a more shade,
okay, now you can't see anything, that was pointless.
Let me turn back around, right to the window.
This lighting is great! I wish daylight was more reliable, so I could use it, but
anyways. This is what it looks like in daylight. Okay I just did some rigorous
cleaning and the makeup held up pretty well, I'm a little bit greasy, like it's
rubbing off of my chin a little bit. That's quite normal.
It's kind of completely off of my pimple right here, so I'm thinking that, when I
get oily or a little sweaty, that it doesn't do very well with that and it
kind of breaks up. Let me check the time real quick.
It is 2:52, so it's not been that long. To be honest, it should still really look
perfect, without me doing anything to it. I'm gonna add a little bit more on my
pimple, because I'm going outside now to do grocery shopping, so I do want that to
be a little bit more covered, but I'm gonna leave the rest. I'll check in later.
All right my loves, it is now 8:06 p.m., to be exact, and I've been wearing this
for eight hours. I look pretty greasy, it could be worse
to be honest. Let me zoom you in a little more, so you can really see what's going
on. I think it has just basically rubbed off everywhere. I mean, it's not covering
my pimples at all anymore. I've even, you know, I've gone over this
pimple twice and now it's, it's back being red again, so I think it's just kind of
rubbed off, but it's not broken up in a weird way. It doesn't look very terrible,
you know, it looks a little weird on my nose here, but it looks pretty good,
pretty decent still; and the advantage you have of having only one product that
you're using, so you're not setting it with powder or setting spray or anything
in that... like that. It's very easy to reapply, so I just went ahead..got.. went
ahead and like, put it a little more on there and it blends in perfectly with
the other... the rest of the product, so that is definitely an advantage.
So in conclusion, does this product do what it promises to do? Absolutely not. To
me, this is a BB cream alternative. It is a very simple way of just putting some...
something on your face, that makes you look a little more put together, a little
more covered than if you have nothing on, but it doesn't reduce your wrinkles, it
doesn't cover everything, you'll still have to use a concealer if you have very
dark circles, if you have pimples like me, you might want to use a concealer to
even... to cancel those out as well. You will not achieve that with this product.
I am gonna continue using it though, because as I said, as a BB cream
alternative, I'm really liking it! I like the texture, I like the way it makes my
skin look and I like the way that it doesn't feel as oily and as kind of
comedogenic as a BB cream would, even if it's not... even it's just in my mind, but
the psychological effect to me is there. The other thing I have to say though,
look at my eye makeup. Do not use this solely as an eye primer. It is pretty
much gone. It does not look good, use an eye primer if you're using this. Don't
just assume that this works as well as using a concealer and a setting powder.
So today I learned, don't use this as an eye primer, but yeah in general, happy
with this product, unhappy with the way it's advertised. If they just advertised
it in the way in what it was, I think it would be a lot more honest and I still
think people would buy it; but this is just dishonest. So I'm not sure I can
recommend it, just solely based on that, but you'll have to make that decision
for yourself anyways. I'm just here to give you the facts. Really hope you liked
this video! You can always subscribe, you don't have to though, it really doesn't, you
know, it matters to me a little bit, because I want you to stay with me and
communicate with you, but in the end, do what you want to do and I really hope
I'll see you next video! I make new ones every Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday!
Bye bye!
