    This was my very first foundation, and I was a little dissapointed. It did not bled very well, it stung, and the color didnt match me. The compact itself was okay. It had a mirror and it was a...

    Wow, I can't believe this product is getting such bad reviews - I'm glad I bought it on a whim without checking MUA first, because I love it. I'm a fan of powdery compact foundations and I usually...

    NO GOOD! It didn't blend at all and the color looked weird. If I use Neutrogena's SkinClearing foundation, I'll use the liquid. At least I know that blends. Good thing I got it really really cheap...

    It is true, this is almost impossible to blend. However, it does clear up acne and can be used for neck and back acne because it pastes on. I like it for those reasons only. For my face, I do not...

    I was satisfied with this product, although i wouldn't recommend it to people with dry or sensitve skin, because of the salycilic acid. They also have a nice selection of colors and a reasonable...

    This makeup doesn't give very good coverage and doesn't blend well, it ends up caking up on your face. The Neutrogena pressed powder is a good choice though!
