Recently I ran out of my regular foundation, and my other foundations were breaking me out. Since I was looking for something sheer, light, and cheaper than my usual Colorstay Active, I went out...

This is my first review ever so here goes. This foundation is very sheer but could be buildable. I wear it over an oil free moisturizer and get a somewhat dewy finish. Without moisturizer, it's...

I love this product. It really does feel like you are wearing nothing, and it gives good coverage. It's pretty cheap too, usually under 6 bucks. It has never made me break out.

On a trip, I accidentally forgot to pack foundation and ran to the drugstore to pick something up. I thought that since this Pure makeup was 50% water, it would give very light coverage and would...

I really like this foundation. For something so light, it gives great coverage. I'm very acne prone, but I often don't need additional concealer when using this product. I appreciate that it...

I really don't like this foundation. Personally, I find it makes my skin look dry and tired and adds lines that are not even there and exaggerates pores. It does not give a flawless finish. Would...

Liked the color match, the way it looked, ease of application, lasting power. Actually thought I found my HG, but after 3 weeks, major breakouts, clogged pores, blackheads. Dang.

As other reviewers have said, this foundation is very lightweight, and it feels great on my oily skin. I've also found a great colour match. Unfortunately, Maybelline's chemists must have made some...

This is by far the best foundation I have ever used. I got it in caramel and it matched my complexion perfectly. It's easy to apply and it goes on smooth. The light coverage makes it look like...

I love this because it doesn't feel heavy & disgusting on my face - the only problem is that it dries really quick, so you have to blend it super-fast if you don't want streaks. It sits really well...

This foundation was VERY drying. Once you squeeze it out of the tube, you better get it on in a couple seconds, or it will dry and you will have streaks. I also found that it highlighted all my...
