Most Helpful Positive Review Perfection, Healthy Glow This is amazing!!! I've never had such a healthy glow from any other foundation. I almost didn't purchase because of the reviews mentioning caprylic/capric triglyceride but luckily, I looked up this ingredient on various websites and it is NOT comedogenic. It is also known as fractionated coconut oil which has had the pore clogging part of the oil removed, so it is not considered comedogenic.Also, Paula Begoun gives this ingredient a "Best rating".
Most Helpful Critical Review So disappointed with the new formula I've been using the Narcissist foundation sticks for over a year now. I originally discovered the product at one of their stockists: Follain in Boston. The original formula was the perfect year-round foundation. It went on smoothly and actually felt like it was hydrating my skin all day. During the winter I get dry patches and the old formula made me confident that those dry patches would not get cake-y and flaky during the day. The new formula is a deceptive look-alike. I do believe that W3ll People genuinely believes this formula is a positive change, but I hope that the widespread dissatisfaction with the new formula will lead to a bit of soul searching and *fingers crossed* and switch back to the old formula. I would happily pay a few more dollars to have a quality, consistent foundation. Many of your other customers would happily pay a bit more to have a reliable foundation. This is why we use W3ll People - not because of the packaging alone or the brand name. But because, at one point, we decided to switch from using toxic, irritating products but did not want to sacrifice quality and consistency in the process. This new formula is oily and separates during the day, leaving miniature islands of foundation all over my face (even when used with a light layer of W3ll People powder). It also has been making my skin slightly itchy as the day goes on. As others have mentioned, this could be due to general change of ingredients and the addition of Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride. I've been trying the foundation for a few days to see if it was just a personal skin phase (I wondered if my skin irritations were simply hormonal or due to weather changes), but after a couple of weeks I have decided I will be returning this product for a refund. I won't be repurchasing until 1. W3ll People can stock it's products consistently. 2). The company decides to return to the old formula.

I gave this a try, wanted to see if a clean foundation could start living in my daily makeup rotation. First, my product was broken. The foundation stick can easily pop off. I managed to work with it but just be careful.
It is a very dense foundation and tugs horribly on your skin if you are to apply it straight from the tube. I suggest using a sponge or Blendiful to get the product out of the tube and then applying to face.
Once on your face there is very little coverage. And it is heavy.
And it does not look seamless. Gathers weirdly and does not play well with other products.
Not to mention the horrible shade range.
This is a hard pass.
Mediocre at best 1
Britt from Portland, OR
I really wanted to like this foundation, because I love that it's a clean ingredient foundation, and cruelty free. However, the shade range is very limited, and too light. The foundation itself is also very dry, and difficult to blend out. Also, definitely not made for oily skin at all. It starts to separate on my skin in my T-zone within just a couple of hours of wear even with setting it with powder. Very disappointed in this product.
Perfect if you love natural coverage, but still covers every 5
Meg from Iowa
Easy to use stick with build able coverage, after blending it looks like you just have a better skin complexion, not cakey makeup. Will be buying again!
Best foundation I've ever used 5
W3ll Customer from Location Unknown
I absolutely love this foundation stick. It's clever design makes it really easy to apply (just spread on zones that you need it and then blend in with fingertips). I have very sensitive skin and this has not caused me any issues. I wear it over my Vitamin C serum or face balm during the day, and it makes my skin look dewy, healthy and glowing. I live in Colorado and it is very dry here, and this foundation keeps me looking hydrated. I have an olive skin tone and I ordered the medium neutral, and it works perfect for me. Never stop making this!
Love it! New fave! 5

I am so glad to have found the Narcissist stick. I love everything about it. Convenience, coverage, and the way it makes me look and feel. Thanks, definitely buying more and adding as revolving order.
Love this foundation stick 5
W3ll Customer from Location Unknown
This foundation goes on smoothly and lasts for hours. I love that it does not have harmful chemicals in it. I have sensitive dry skin and I have not had any problems with this foundation stick at all. I love the cute container it comes in. It does not feel cakey or chalky - it is very light. I would definitely recommend this product to a friend.
Very dry 1
Pennysfine from Redondo Beach
I like the convenience of stick foundation and the company's cruelty free philosophy. Unfortunately had to return it. Unwearable. Very dry. Even over primer it drags on the skin. Consequently did not blend at all and I couldn't even put it in my entire face. The colors are pretty unnatural and limited. Shame.
absolutely love this product 5

Great ! 5

I use this with the tinted moisturizer to cover dark spots. It blends well and stays till the end of the day. I've also used it as a foundation and am very happy with it both ways!

Amazing All Natural Coverage 5
W3ll Customer from Location Unknown
This stick is amazing... it literally melts right into my skin. I swipe it on my face and then gently blend with my brush - go and glow! I LOVE that this is all natural, EWG recommended... Other foundations look cakey after a few hours, but this one lasts all day and looks totally natural!
Good coverage with natural look 4
W3ll Customer from Location Unknown
I was hesitant to purchase this product as I hate the idea of looking like I'm wearing makeup; however, I am very happy with this purchase. I wouldn't say it offers MAX coverage, but the coverage it offers is definitely consistent. It might seem a bit difficult to work into the skin at first, but I have found that applying immediately after my face lotion helps that. It can definitely be used for the full face or just over trouble spots. Definitely recommend!

I felt like this sat on top of my skin. It seemed too dry.
Worthy of Notoriety! 5

I love the creaminess of this product. It was enjoyable to apply and it covered my skin beautifully! I plan to purchase some for my teenage daughters for their first ever foundation!
Good product for dry skin 4
W3ll Customer from Location Unknown
Good coverage, nice color matching and consistency. This is really good for dry skin because it doesn't dry out. This product does seem to run out every month though.
Four Stars 4
W3ll Customer from Location Unknown
Like this as foundation or spot concealer cover up. Blends nicely and melts into my skin. Didn't give it five stars because it's a little orange based when first applied.

I was looking for a new easy, good coverage daily foundation. I really like this so far. It gives good coverage but blends well so it doesn't look heavy. I do find sometimes it settles on top of my skin but I think it's the changing season and my need to up my moisturizer game. I like it and seem to reach for more and more.
Smooth, Creamy, and Just PERFECT! 5
W3ll Customer from Location Unknown
Love the formula - goes on very smooth, matte, and blends well into the skin. I only use it for trouble spots, not the entire face. Would definitely recommend!
Love it. Highly recommend. 5

Amazing creamy coverage. I use this with the SPF tint to add a little more coverage when needed. Love, love, love the ingredients. W3ll People is now my new FAV brand. Thank you for making makeup that's natural. < 3
