Aubrey Nicole or Meow?

Hi!

I have never used Aubrey Nicole's foundation before, I was wondering if anyone could tell me how it compares to Meow's foundation?

The reason I ask is because I saw that Aubrey Nicole also offers foundation in a 3oz jar for 26.95 which is comparable with Meow's prices. I haven't seen any other place offer such big sizes which is why I'm interested in finding out more about their foundation. TIA!

Re: Aubrey Nicole or Meow?

I found a color match with Frisky Mau (Pampered Puss). I liked the Meow well, but I had to use 2 or 3 layers to get complete coverage. I'm sure it was due to using Pampered Puss. I never sampled Flawless Feline.

I found a color match with AN right away as well. When I compared all the samples I tried, I found AN to be one of the best. All of AN's products contain Kaolin Clay which is a great oil control ingredient. The full coverage foundations contains more Kaolin than the Soft Coverage. I use the full coverage so I can get complete coverage with one layer.

One of my reasons for picking AN as an HG was I picked their Rice Powder and Glow Finishing Powder as HGs too. All of AN's products just work perfectly for me. My main reason for picking AN was how all three products make my skin just look good. The products hold down oil which makes my pores and lines less noticeable. The coverage is great, so my skin is even and smooth looking.

After using AN for a couple months, and not using any other MMU, I have decided that AN MMU is the absolute BEST!! For me it is better than Lumiere and I thought, at one time, that Lumiere was the best. Lumiere is good, but for me, Aubrey Nicole performs FAR BETTER.

Obviously I love Aubrey Nicole! It's a plus that my foundation and both powders come from the same company. I've even found an HG blush from AN too (Blissful)!

I would totally recommend Aubrey Nicole!

Re: Aubrey Nicole or Meow?

I personally favor AN...more coverage, and just a better look & feel. Meow is nice, but you need to use more to get the coverage AN gives.

Re: Aubrey Nicole or Meow?

I agree with Katnahat and SincerelyMe - I love AN! The coverage is really excellent, a very natural look and feel and the customer service is exceptional. I sampled a lot of companies and chose AN as my HG. If you do order, Let us know what you think.

Re: Aubrey Nicole or Meow?

I found Aubrey Nicole works very well in summertime when my skin is oily, however in Winter I prefer to use Meow Flawless Feline as it does not dry out my skin. Also I found AN to be not quite yellow enough for me. For reference I use Med. Light Olive in full coverage in AN and Frisky Charteux or Mau in Meow.

Aubrey Nicole's eyeshadow, blush and brushes are great. I also use their primer every day.

AN is having a free shipping sale for 5 days. Even includes international orders! I'm also going to post a new topic.

Re: Aubrey Nicole or Meow?

I love Meow, but I haven't tried AN. To compare, Meow has a very large selection of foundation colors. But AN has starter kits (which are better for your $$) whereas Meow doesn't. I heard a lot of great things about AN, so perhaps you could sample both and see what you like!

Re: Aubrey Nicole or Meow?

How large are their samples? I have found that samples sizes vary greatly from company to company.

Meow and Aubrey Nicole give very generous samples. I know I was able to use my AN sample for a month. I only used Meow several times but I think it would have lasted a month too.

AN comes in a 5g jar w/sifter and it's almost full. Meow comes in a tall mini zip bag that is 1/8 full (that's alot).

Hope this helps!

Re: Aubrey Nicole or Meow?

Thank you very much. I think I will give AN a try. I like the idea that it is only a few states away as well. The shipping should be very quick to Alabama
