This is my HG foundation. I have melasma (brown patches) to cover, and this does it all with minimal need of concealer; however, it doesn't feel or look like a makeup mask. I had tried MAC...

I don't like this foundation because it feels hard and unnatural, like you've got some king of building material on your face. Also i don't like the finish, it's not matte, and the fact that it...

Feels heavy and oily on my face, oxidizes horribly. Has no staying power what so ever. Won't repurchase.

This foundation provided truly matte, beautiful full coverage. It looked better on than any foundation I have ever used. Sadly, it also made my skin brek out quickly and severly. I returned it.
