    I love BE matte. It is more sheer than the original but I use the multi-tasking to even out redness and a little concealer on any break-outs, so I really don't need too much coverage after that. ...

    Received this as a sample from Sephora and even with the mini-kabuki brush application, it went on evenly and the color matched perfectly. It stayed very matte (even in 90 degree weather). It was...

    I received a medium-beige sample from Sephora and am very pleased with this product. I think it creates an air-brushed finish and covers well, but it doesn't look dry or dull like some matte...

    The foundation looks very yellow even though it should have been light enough for my skin tone. It gives me a very caked-on look and caused me to break out like crazy. Normally I have blemish-free...
