Great foundation, didn't bother my skin. I get a lot of compliments when I wear it. The only prob I have is color choices.

I like this foundation most of the time. Very nice on my skin in the fall/winter/early spring months. A tad too oily in summer. I live in Denver so need moisture due to lack of humidity that does...

I don't understand the hype. I have oily skin and this product just doesn't work for me. It has medium to buildable full coverage. When I put it on my skin it looks natural and dewy but after a few...

Light to medium buildable coverage. Very natural looking. Looks like you didn't wear any foundation. Long lasting. But for my acne scars, I need several layers to cover them up. Which is the reason...

Best foundation on the market. Finish it off with powder to set. Long lasting both in terms of wear and use. Armani sales assistants are usually really good, too. No dodgy sales pitches- they just...

So, do we need another review of this? Why not. This is pretty much my ideal foundation. I have other favourites that suit my skin as well as this (Chante FS and LM moisturizing for example), but...
