This is my holy grail foundation! I've always used Merle Norman foundation, but I found this about 2 years ago and I haven't found anything that compares. This is the only matte foundation I've found ...Read more

This product is amazing. I strayed away from this product because it's about 40 minutes to the Merle Norman store but what a disaster that was. I have very oily/ acne prone skin and this works so awes...Read more

I've used it a handful of times, and I only use it during show performances. I wouldn't wear for everyday, though I'm sure you could. The plus side is it doesn't make my skin itch and break into hives...Read more

I figured I would try this since I really like the lasting powder foundation. However, this did not last very long on my skin at all, nor did it control oil very well for me. After about 3 hours the f...Read more

This Is my only matte foundation, but I love it. Matte usually emphasizes my pores, lines and wrinkles, making me look ten years older. I'm 34. This makeup makes me look great. It sits well. It set...Read more

This is my go-to foundation. I have bizarre, sensitive combination skin (dry as a desert everywhere but my T-zone, which is an oil slick), and this stays put without breaking me out or drying me out. ...Read more

It's not worth the price and it feels like you're wearing a mask or something. None of the shades match my skin tone. Either too dark or too light. So I had to put on both a face powder and bronzer to...Read more
