I really like this foundation. The skin matches are great and natural. It's easy to spread and melts into the skin. However, it's annoying with my oily skin because it slides off toward the end of...

This foundation was okay. It looks really nice when I first applied it, but it fades away after the 1st hour due to my oily skin (I am not using a primer). But I do like how it is lightweight and...

I originally bought this in "Real Ecru (01) Y/O", and it's a decent match, although a little too dark/and greyish/greenish. I then tried "Real Cream (02) Y/O", but it's not yellow enough, and also...

This is my HG liquid foundation. I'm a Y/O and I wear Real Tawny (with Y/O Camoflage Cream). It feels weightless on my skin and just evens everything out. Coverage is sheer to medium, but I find...
