Seint

Has anyone used these products? Videos look great but I don't know anyone who has used this product. Would like real reviews from real folks not sponsors. For reference, over 50, combo, sensitive skin, light-medium color range. TIA!

@mommaslp, I have not but dd and I have been so tempted. I just keep reminding myself these influencers have had training on how to apply each color where and how to blend, etc, to say nothing of the fact they probably all are using some kind of filter or something. If you do break down and get it or know somebody who does please let me know how it is.

These influencers also use a filter.

I have the Seint makeup and love it!! My friend talked me into trying it with her. She is now an artist with it but does NOT use any filters. She keeps it real and natural. I know several artists who don't use filters and are real about their postings with it. It is different than any conventional makeup I had used but makes sense. When I switched everyone asked me what I had done differently as my makeup was gorgeous.

Yes I love it. It has a learning curve because if you put it on like a traditional foundation it's going to look heavy. I have paired my makeup down to this pallet and mascara and brow products. I like to spray my brush with setting spray before blending. You can dab in the tins then spray brush or if you use dots spray face then blend. After applying take a damp beauty blender type sponge to give it a natural finish.

I recommend buying the biggest pallet you can get because you will get a pallet credit with the purchase of tins. That way you can grow. I have the 12 but I know I will eventually out grow it.

I am going to get some Demi color correctors next because it looks so nice when I see people use it instead of the highlights.

There are two YouTubers I recommend to watch. The contoured chemist. She is just a rep. But she has great tips. Also Michelle spieler. She is a actual makeup artist who has worked in Hollywood. Great tips from her too.

Before anyone says it they are a mlm like Avon and Mary Kay. But you don't need a artist rep to buy. But it's helpful because they will shade match you for free before you buy. Colors on seint website are not very helpful so finding a rep is beneficial. You can find a bunch on YouTube or tik Tok.

I had a doctors appointment a couple weeks ago and that was the first time anyone has complimented me on my makeup.

My bk beauty brushes work great with it. I am at the age now where I just want simple makeup.

It really is that easy. The only tricky part is people want to put too much on. If you put it on like a traditional foundation it will look way to heavy. Very little product is needed. I find a fluffier brush is better then a stiff sense buffing brush:

It’s definitely an MLM.

ccassaday — Sun, 26 Mar 2023 17:41:47 GMT

I did my makeup today I am reminded how much I love this makeup. I don't care to contour so don't use that.

Used my BK beauty 101 foundation brush

Used the bk beauty dense bronzer brush for bronzer.

I am slowing getting more BK beauty brushes. When the 109 comes back in want to get that for the blush. Then get the big powder brush.

Blending it with the Charlotte tilbury setting spray makes it look flawless.

@mommaslp It's a MLM so if you don't support that business model, stay away.

I've watched a few women on YouTube who have used it and after they did, they never mentioned it again. Now, they received it for free so the FIRST question I ask under their video is "If you had to PAY for this product, would you buy it again? NEVER do they reply but that's pretty telling in my opinion.

Now, someone where I work has a daughter who sells it. To help her out, I agreed to purchase some products. None of the face shades were light enough for me so my interest went to zero. I did buy a few lip glosses (they have a slide on/off lid so I can carry them in my makeup bag) and 2 basic shadows. They're fine, nothing amazing, like all the other makeup out there.

Being cream based, this would be great for dry skin and I do appreciate the way you can make your own palette so no waste of money on colors you won't use. Since they don't offer shades for the very fair or the very dark for that matter, it's a line I won't suggest to those in my world.

Thanks so much for all the input! When I am low on foundation I may bite the bullet and give it a shot. It doesn't bother me that it's an MLM.

@Wsmom @mommaslp I was wondering if either of you ladies ended up trying Seint? If so, what did you think?

I have been tempted for a some time, and finally decided to give it a try. I ordered one of the highlight colors and a lip/cheek color. It should be here in a couple days. (I want to make sure my sensitive skin doesn't react before I place a big order)

In hind sight, I probably should have gotten one of the brushes, but I have so many brushes now that I think I probably have one or two that will work. In any event, if I really like it I will probably place another order and get the palette, brushes and a few more colors.

Just a reccomrndstion use very little. Also do not put dots on. Dip your brush in tin. Then put on face and blend. If you have a setting spray spray your brush with it after dipping it in to tin then blend. You have to use such little product.

I feel so pretty after doing my makeup with this. Building up my blushes and eyeshadows now. I use the BK Beauty brushes with it. There are dupe brushes on Amazon by ducare that are nice if you don't want the seint brushes right now. There is a learning curve so if you don't like it the first time try it different ways or give it a couple extra tries.

@Swedishmiss , I have not but after reading this and @ccassaday 's response I am wanting to again. I have skin prone to breaking out so that makes me nervous to try it.

I have heard both sides. That people do not break and some who have. What I would suggest is buying just one Tin. But your all over foundation shade. It's only $16 dollars and test if a few weeks. That's a tiny investment and you will know if it breaks you out. I don't have skin that breakouts so I really can't tell you for sure. And make sure you get color matched by a artist. You don't have to buy everything they suggest at once.

@ccassaday , great idea. I do have an artist I follow.

I wanted to give an early review of my Seint purchase. I purchased one foundation color (they call it a highlight) and a blush.

First of all, thank you @ccassaday for your suggestion to just use a tiny amount. I followed your advice and I am very impressed!

I am going to wait a week or two before ordering an actual palette with a few more colors, contour and bronzer. I want to make sure that it doesn't break me out - but, so far it has not.

The blush I bought is called 'carousel' and it is very sheer. I applied it very lightly on top of one of my Laura Geller blushes and loved the resulting look.

Glad to hear that. Taking good care of your skin really does allow you to use very little makeup. What I love about this is it allows my pretty skin to shine through.

The contour I will warn you is very stiff. It isn't that creamy. That way it stays where you put it. So you will need a shorter dense brush. Something similar to seints detail brush. I just bought one off of Amazon.

I just received a few more eyeshadows. I boyggg some plum colors along with plum lip and cheap. Played with it today. So pretty.

Don't be afraid to spray your brush with setting spray after dipping into tin. It really does make it pretty. You can also spray a sponge with setting spray before blush and take it around your face.

Swedishmiss — Sat, 12 Aug 2023 08:26:18 GMT

@ccassaday Thank you for the additional tips! It is good to know about the contour colour being stiffer.

When I first opened up the package I was shocked how dark the foundation was (I was "color matched" by a YouTuber/Artist I had been watching). I didn't think it would work on fair skin. I was wrong, the foundation blended in perfectly and was undetectable.

I am really hoping this doesn't break me out (I will know in a few days). I like it so much better than the liquid and powder foundations I have used in the past.

Do you know if Seint ever runs sales?

Seint is 80% pigment. Thst is why it looks so dark in the tin and you need so little.

You will get a discount on pallet if you buy a bunch of tins. I reccomend getting at least the 12 since you get a discount. I am so addicted I had to go back and get the 27.

seint doesn't run sales very often. They just had one not long ago where depending on how much you buy was your discount. Wasn't a huge sale because you had to spend $150 to get 15% off. A rep I follow on Facebook said they have some big discounted items coming up aug 21st through 25th. Most of the items looked like eyeshadows. I will look again and see if there is anything else.
