    I LOVE...LOVE...LOVE this foundation. I was quite surprised by its whipped consistnecy, but it smooths on evenly, light to medium coverage that can be built upon. I've only used it a week, but no...

    Last week I went to the EL counter on a spur of the moment search for a new foundation. The representative took one look at me, said "Wow, your skin is really smooth" and then "Does it have a...

    This goes on better than any matte foundation I have ever used. Very, very smoothly and blends seamlessly. The finish is beautiful and the colors(I use fresco)very natural. It does have a lot of...

    Comes off on everything, separates in any oily area and does not mattify *at all*. In fact I felt more oily with this on because of the gobs of silicone in it! I love silicones but this was too...

    I hate to admit, but I have to agree with yellowbeak. It does melt away in tropical climate and its not the best foundation for someone living in such a hot and humid place.

    Could it be--have I actually found my HG??? I think it may be possible. My skin is combo--oily t-zone. I have stayed away from "matte" foundations because my skin isn't super oily like it used...

    I like this foundation because it has medium coverage with a natural finish. I use it when I want a more coverage than my Becca, which is my favorite. I am an NW20 in MAC foundations and use the...

    I LOVE this foundation but my only gripe is trying to get it out of the bottle. After about half the product is gone, the rest is stuck in the corners and sides. I had to cut open the bottle to...

    This foundation gives me a very soft matte look. It is great for my combo skin and covers very nicely. I still have a slight oily shine in my t-zone but this will not deter me from purchasing...

    Some people like this one...some don't. I don't. It didn't blend very well on my freshly cleansed oily skin and the texture was too funky for me. Is funky a technical term? I would advise to get a...

    This is a really nice foundation that feels great on the skin. However it doesn't give very good coverage, the bottle is small and will not last for long. Is not very good value for money, but...
