Does anyone have any experience with these products? I’m highly interested in them but they are only available online. I have a very bad track record of color matching makeup with online purchases. The fact I would have to ship these back vs walking into a store to return has me hesitant. Many of the reviews are paid for reviews so I’m getting mixed feedback. I would love to hear from someone who has actually tried this product!
If you're interested in them because of the more natural no-makeup makeup look, maybe consider Merit Beauty, which you can try at Sephora. I love love love Merit. It's my go-to everyday look.
I was curious about Jones Road, but then I saw so many reviews stating that the Miracle Balm separates in the container and looks messy. Ick.
The only thing I feel that Merit is missing is some sort of setting powder. And I'm not particularly fond of their mascara, so I use my tried and true L'Oreal Lash Paradise.

A lot of the reviews also say that this make up is highly scented. With some saying it smells like old lady. Highly perfumed.
I have mainly seen a number of the influencers use the foundation completely wrong. It is not a high coverage foundation. It’s more like a very heavy tinted moisturizer, as in highly moisturizing. A lot of emollience. If you have really dry skin, like me, and don’t need to cover tons of stuff this might be fine.
I have walked away from foundation and tinted moisturizer completely. I don’t need it, and I really don’t like it. With my very dry skin I have put together skin care that works, and when I start adding things into it to tinker — it just doesn’t work. I’m either way too oily, which I’m always like how does that happen, or it’s not moisturizing enough. And I really only have two spots of redness from the rosacea. I don’t need foundation.
I discovered glossier stretch concealer. Works under my eyes, and is my exact skin shade, I mean exact G 12 is perfect. So a little bit of that on those red blotches and they’re gone.

I really disliked the Merritt myself. Purchased a few items and ended up returning them all. They made my face itch and also within an hour I looked like I hadn't put a thing on. Not in a good way.

Aren't they expensive for what they are? I would google a dupe for them. I can't stand something like that on my face and I find the balm messy. I like Laura Geller's baked foundation which I swipe on quickly using a big
brush. Got it really cheap on Black Friday deals with free shipping. But you might like the balm if you have drier skin.

Thanks for pointing out that it’s highly scented. This likely won’t work for me then as I have dry and sensitive skin.
I wear Ilia most days but for professional reasons like a more professionally put together look. I have a lot of red in my skin so I need coverage. Powders generally don’t last long
