Has Anyone Tried 'What The Foundation' By Jones Road?

Jones Road put out a cream foundation in a jar which I have been wondering about -

Has anyone here tried it?  

It's called 'What The Foundation' and it's supposedly good for mature skin.  I don't want to waste money on more foundations that aren't worth it!

This is a sample of what it looks like, it comes in lots of shades:

No, I have not tried the foundation but I do use the Jones Road Miracle Balm and I love that. It gives me just a hint of color. The container lasted me a long time. Over a year. I just purchased a 2nd one. All as I wear now is Beekman tinted primer with SPF and the Jones Road Balm. I am 67, and don't need anything else.

yes I tried it last year. My color match was excellent. Full, flawless coverage. A very dewy radiant finish. That was a bit much for me even though I have dry skin. It transfers easily. I prefer other formulations over this.

It seems more suited for someone with dry skin.  I've got combo skin and it would be too dewy/oily for me.

I live in a climate with BLAZING HEAT.    Finishing powder is the most I can take...

 

Anything "creamy" would just run off.

@San Antonio Gal - ITA. I will probably stick with my Voodoo Makeup Coconut Cream foundation, which isn't too much for my combo skin. It is full coverage though, so I usually wear it when I'm filmed or speaking in a larger venue. I do like it.

 

 

 

 I'm tempted by this, but my other concern is shade matching. The fair looks a little too dark for me. 

 

 

 

Do they sell this in any stores? If they do, I might try it sometime.  Smiley Happy

Makeup just sweats off in Arizona. I've gotten used to not wearing much and I like it.

I switched from IT cc cream to this. I wanted clean beauty. I really like it. It is a bit wet but I have large pores and this just covers them beautifully. And it looks nicely dewy all day. I also use Mricale Balm and a new lip gloss. I reaally like this line a lot. Bobbi Brown reboot. I am 66.

@Ronettes   WTF as it is affectionetly called has been out for quite awhile with mixed reviews. 

 

My skin is dry and it "slides" off my face. It is thick and I prefer not dipping my fingers in a jar for foundation or skincare. 

 

Sorry, Bobbi. I think this is a easy pass.
